Gift Wine

[Carlos A]

Can you help me with this wine. Is it worth drinking, selling or tossing. I got it as a gift. Red Burgundy Wine Bouchard Aines & Fils. It also says Cote de Beaune-Villages. Appellation Cote de Beaune-Villages Controlee 1979.

Hi CarlosA and welcome to the board. Before tossing it, I suggest you pop the cork, stand 10 feet away and if the wafting breeze doesn't assault your smell-buds with vinegar, pour a glass. 25 to 1 against it being drinkable. WW
