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!
