I have a bottle of wine that is shaped like a fish. The date on the wine is 1980 and it is an Italian wine. ANTINORI SOAVE, DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA. Here is what I belive is the name of the wine and the district it came from, but not for sure, I do not speak Italian. Very corious, please help if you have any idea about this wine.

Who (and all the whose in Whoville), that is (was actually, as it is now deader than that parrot in the Monty Python sketch) a so-so Soave (the zona) bottled by a famous Chianti producer (Antinori) from wines bought from a co-op. I would treasure it as a kitschy kitchen decoration and not open it as it is assuredly quite nasty by now (it should have been consumed during the first Reagan Administration).
