So I was visiting my grandma tonight and starting talking about the wine I make. Long story short she gave me three bottles ranging from 25-39 years old. So I post asking for help to know what I have on my hands. I will post the best description I can now and pictures later.

Bottle 1 (German)
Maifammerer Mandelgoge-1984
Qualitaswein mith Kabinett Pradikat
Amtliche Prufungsnummer 5 907 021 112 85

Bottle 2 (American)
Gundlach Bundschu-1981
Cabernet Sauvignon

Bottle3 (French)
Bichot-1971
Gevrey Chambertin
Appellatin Controlee

Not sure what to make of these, thanks for any help!

Also if you have any suggestions of somewhere else to look for information that would be great as well!
 
if nothing else the Kabinett has a badass label for display purposes.

the 1981 Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma will taste great if it was stored carefully. Though, I'd save them all and treasure them.

one might google the names and see if anything pops up ;)

www.gunbun.com for the cabernet BTW.
 
look to be in great shape, were they in a cellar?
