Question????

Proper temperature is about 55 degrees Fahrenheit with 70% humidity. With that much age, the cork may have developed leaks unless it was recorked at some time. If the cork has shrunk, the wine may be oxidized (exposed to oxygen) and ruined. I am not familiar with the particular wine (or an expert on Spanish wines) so am unable to tell you if still drinkable if well cellared all these years. Maybe someone else will offer their opinion. Does the fill line of the wine come close to the cork or does there appear to have been some evaporation?
