    Hi dandycandy,

    I agree with the others....the only way you're going to find out is to open it. There is more advice on this thread:

    champagne

    I'll add your thread to it later to keep the advice in one place.

    I have been clearing out the junk in the garage and discovered 2 bottles of champagne we had forgotten about! They were presents when my DD was born - 12 years ago now :S
    The have been stored standing upright and my bro reckons that makes the cork shrink and they will be bad. I could try some but I really don't want to get sick or a stonking headache - what do you think? Would it be ok stored this way?
    (p.s. We aren't really drinkers which is why it was left forgotton for so long! shocking!)

    Well,what was it like?!

    I can't try it on a week day - if it's great I will drink too much and never be up in time for the school run!! It will have to wait for the weekend ;)
