1982 Chateau Lafite Rothschild
Yes it is ... for all they know it's been sitting on a hot window sill in the attic upright for 27 years! However fill level proves otherwise and the bottle is in perfect condition and was stored in a wine cellar all these years. I'm sure someone will be interested, it's just about getting a fair but reasonable deal to us. We aren't looking to clean someone out, just enjoy the present our mother gave us in another form. Thanks for everyone's input!

We debated on drinking it.... my mother in law says sell it too! Depends .. if it ends up being a couple hundred bucks (thanks njfoodies for the bid haha), then we'll enjoy it ourselves. We love traveling more than wine however, and could help pay for an extra day or two in Europe next year also and put it in savings! We may enjoy that more.

My husband and I were given this as a gift on our wedding day from my in-laws. They purchased it the year we were born as a gift to give their son on his wedding. I don't think they realized what a great wine they were purchasing!
The wine has been kept in a wine cellar all these years - dark, cool, on it's side. It's in excellent condition. As much as we would love to crack it open - we'd love to put the money toward our house also.
Any suggestions on the best place or way to sell? Consignment, direct to buyer, wine shops, ebay/wine sites, etc? Thanks!!
