The more than 100 years old Bečov wines are in excellent condition
Well-known wine experts tasted the West Bohemian Becov nad Teplou Castle’s more than 130 year old wines that were discovered in 1985 and found that the wines are in excellent condition, and their value may be much higher than previously estimated: about 20 million crowns- Jakub Pribyl wine expert told.
The stash of 133 bottles was found in Becov castle in 1985, 40 years after being hidden by its then owners the Beaufort-Spontin family.
The wines include Chateau d'Yquem vintages from 1892 – valued at up to 750,000 crowns (31,000 USD) per bottle – and 1896, and the whole collection is worth at least 30 million crowns, according to early estimates.
Sommeliers tasted several bottles on Sunday using technology that extracts a sample through a needle, piercing the cork without damaging it. (MTI)
