    Okay, totally ignorant here... but, I have a 1967 Bottle of Château Beausejour bordeaux table wine... first, is it still going to be any good? Second, if I don't drink it, is it worth anything of value?

    Thanks!

    I'm sorry to say that this wine is most likely DEAD and well passed it's drinkability date.
    Wines from Montagne Saint Émilion are best drunk within 10 years of the vintage.
    After this time they start to loose all fruit and style.

    As to value, well as a wine nothing, but as an oddity maybe a few bucks, but not much more.

    1967 was NOT a good vintage in Bordeaux and as such not collectible.

I don't drink, so all wine tastes the same to me. However, I do cook with it. IF a cake recipe calls for sherry or brandy, which of the following would be the closest to it. Cabernet sauvegon, burgundy, chadonnay, marsala, maderia. I have all these but not sherry or brandy.
