I know nothing about wine but I don't see why not. Look at those people that have that vintage wine from like 20 odd years ago. Wouldn't it work on the same principle? Please someone come and correct me if I'm wrong though because I would hate for you to get poorly!

I have a bottle of 12 year old Malt whisky that I have had for 2 years.

Do you think that is safe to drink?

How does this happen? :rotfl:

It's a bit like the suggestion to freeze left-over wine. Left-over wine? :rotfl:

Did you know that alcohol with an ABV of >10% doesn't need to carry a date of minimum durability on it? (The Food Labelling Regulations 1996, as amended)

So, if your wine was in a bottle, there would be no date on it.

Ariba - your whisky will be fine! What's going to grow in the alcohol?!?!
