I've been given 7 bottles of old french wines and wonder if any are vintage or vinegar.
Three of the 7 are: BOURGOGNE, CUVEE LATOUR
LOUIS LATOUR, NEGOCIANT A BEAUNE (COTE-D-OR),
1981; CHATEAU MOUTON ROTHSCHILD 1971, APPELLATION PAUILLAC CONTROLEE; AND NUITS-ST. GEORGES, HASENKLEVER RESERVE, 1973, LIONEL J. BRUCK.

Hi Rubiate and welcome to the board. Don't go buy a new Mercedes. The 3 you posted are all way past drinkability. The Mouton may have some viability due to the label. Check on E-Bay and see if they have the 71 up for sale and if there's any bidding. Good luck WW
