1950s wine from Moldova (Cricova)?

[winoweenie]

Hi Larry and welcome to the board. This should be posted under the "Urban Myths" column. VERY FEW wines from 50s' are drinkable today.Some of the top Bordeaux houses, Vintage Ports, and Sauternes and German TBAs' comprise most of the group. Have absolutely NO knowledge of either the wine or the Country you've mentioned, so would Question the " Well regarded part". Most wine (over 90%) produced today is for immediate consumption and has life expectancy of 1-2 years. Hope this sheds some lite on your post. WW
