But this is only my experience?. white wines with the exception of desert wines (often extending to 50 plus years) have a good drinking window of about 20 years. Reds particularly those with alcohol contents over 13.5% more, Ports and other fortified wines well into 50 years and often much more.
The Bottle of France 98 Champagne would be best suited in a collection of rare and highly desirable wines, perfect for a connoisseur or enthusiast.
