It's probably safe for 10 years (or more), but if the color is fading it
might not have much taste left. I have some spicy tomato jam from 2000
that is still good, but it was very strong-flavored and kind of dark to
begin with.

Try it and see. The worst that will happen is it will just be sweet
with no aroma and little fruitiness left.
