The beaujolais probably went south of vinegar about 20 years ago. Don't know about the other one.

Spanna is a Northern Italian wine made from the Nebbiolo grape. Nebbiolo can make long lasting wines (e.g. Barolo) and Dessilani is a reasonably good producer, so the Spanna may still be drinkable.
A lot of this depends on how well it was stored and the quality of the vintage. I don't know anything about either of those questions. However I am sure that it is unlikely to get any better. Drink it now.
