Couldn't locate a more appropriate newsgroup than aus.foodtech for
this article ... please let me know if there is one (I've crossposted
to bne.forsale and aus.ads.forsale).

I have an old bottle of fortified wine to sell. Is anybody able to
give me a realistic valuation?

It is a 750ml (or old equivalent) green coloured bottle with seal
still in good condition and with the following labels ...

        |                                |
        | This wine was made from        |
        | Madeira and White Hermitage    |
        | grapes grown at Lindeman's     |
        | Hunter River and Corowa Vine-  |
        | yards respectively.            |
        |                                |
        | It has been matured in small   |
        | oak casks ... (rest unreadable)|
         --------------------------------

Most of its life has been spent in a dark cupboard to the best of my
knowledge.

If you can help me (or want to make an early offer :-), email me at
peterh@mincom.com

Thanks,
Peter.
