I bought two bottles of what they claimed was "limited edition" back in about 1992 or so..... i hate wine and have no intention to drink it..... eBay won't let you sell it there.

how would I find out if it is worth anything or where to sell it?

thanks -

Louis Martini Andretti Cabernet 1991 is what it is....

Call the winery here in Napa and ask them how many bottles they have. If they say none, you have something rare. Of course if you didn't store it properly, it could be worthless.

Andretti may be a hell of a driving legend, but his wine hasn't quite reached that stature just yet.

I'll take it off your hands for a few bucks though
I'm Italian... I have to like wine.

thanks Mindcore.... I did find that last night after posting.... wasn't sure if it was for real though... it is an auction... i am not registered, so i have no idea if it is worth $90.00 per bottle..... but I would gladly sell it for that much.

If its worth $90 or less, I'd give them away as gifts, clear out your fridge and be done with it.

I actually don't know anyone who enjoys wine that would appreciate a $50.00+ bottle.

We used to mix NIGHT TRAIN and beer..... yum.
