Just found two bottles of Jaboulet-Vercherre chateauneuf-du-Pape (1974) in the back of my liquor cabinet. Any value? Vinegar or ??
What does "Still Red" mean? [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/redface.gif[/img]

If you C-N-D-P was in an air conditioned environment during the whole time, you could have a treasure. If it was typical San Juan climate, your guess is most probably right on.
Technically, a still red is one that is not carbonated. In usage, still red means red table wine, even though technically uncarbonated red dessert wine is a still red wine too.

If I remember correctly, 1974 was a horrid vintage year for most of France.

The only way you'll ever know will be to pull the cork and sample the contents......
