Your bottle has a tremendous value--decorative, that is! Like long-necked straw-covered bottles of '70s Chianti,your old Orvieto is a great conversation piece, to be sure. But it cannot be drinkable. If it is, it's a miracle. Orvieto does not age well. Certainly not for forty or more years. Enjoy your bottle as a decoration, for this will be its primary value.
