I recently found a bottle of wine that is over 100 years old. I am
trying to find out more about this bottle of wine, type content etc and am looking for assistance. There is no label on the wine, it came from a shipwreck that I know when it sunk But am unable to locate a manifest for. The only identifing marks are the corrk, which have the following on it. One stamp is as follows, **ELINARIS Company Limited. Where the ** is letters that I cannot make out. On the opposite side is an oval with writing around it and a symbol in the center. The symbol is not identifible and only part of the writing is legible. It has the following... B**NNE POLLI** Is there anyone out there that could help me to determine the contents. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Stephen |

Hi,
The location of the shipwreck? the mean temprature that the bottle sat at. I'm afraid that unless it was very very cold were it was. I don't belive there is much chance that its any good. I belive there was recently a bunch of champange found in a shipwreck in very cold water and they seemed to have survived anyone still have the URL for that? Cheers, Dave PS doesn't mean it isn't a neat find! |
