Can anyone tell me if any of these French wines (mostly Bordeaux) are worth anything?!
We're getting married in a few months and have several old bottles of wine that have been gathering dust for years!. We're not very clued up on wine and would love to know if any of them are valuable - we'd like to subsidise the wedding a bit if they are!! The wines are as follows:
Reds:
Chateau La Tonnelle 1985
Chateau les Marcottes 1986
Chateau de Thenoux 1983
Chateau Brane-Cantenac 1970
Chateau Haut-Moureaux 1983
Chateau Tour de L'Esperance 1986
Mouton-Cadet Bordeaux 1983
Chateau de La Chaize Brouilly 1987
Chateau Roc de Mont Saint Pey
Chateau Gasquerie 1985
Morgon Cuvee Gilbert Roux 1988
Thanks very much for looking!!
Best wishes,
Tim & Sarah
Whites (surely vinegar by now!!?):
Sauvignon de Saint Bris 1976Www@FoodAQ@Com

Most reds, especially Bordeuxs, will keep for 20 years easily!. As for a price point, I don't know if this is the same wine as the first one you listed, but here is a link that may help!. http://www!.snooth!.com/search/Chateau+Bal!.!.!.
It's pretty much a sure thing though that each of those bottles if probably worth at least $150 at the low end!. You can google the ones you have though and it will pull up price points for them!.
As for the white, I'm really not sure if it would still be good or not but I hope the info about the red helps! Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
