I have a 1976 Soavebolla wine from Verona Italy. Is it worth anything or just a good drink?

Most likely not worth much of anything. I also think that it might not be worth much on the palate either.

Open it and find out, would be my suggestion. However have some olive oil on hand to make some salad dressing...........

Welcome to the Wine Board, Karen. Dutton has it right. Soave is a wonderful, fruity wine when drunk within a couple of years of release, it goes with a variety of cuisines, and Bolla is a steady producer. Once the fruit fades, there is not much left. One that is twenty four years old should be used as a weed killer.
