Darcy: Many canadian Icewines don't have a real long shelf life. I
would hazzard that that one is peaking or (more likely) past it's peak...
You probably won't get big $$$ for it... Uncork & enjoy.

You mean it has to be used up?

By the way, what would the typical value be?

How much money would I be drinking?

None. It's wine, not money.

Don't know the shelf life, but a lot of retailers in the US stll stock it.
It is selling this in $60-90 price range, with most averaging $62-65. I
changed the subject, as it sounded like you might be trying to sell at
first. Nobody would buy it for even half what it's worth, so as Mathew
suggested, just drink and enjoy!! As for how much money would you be
drinking, figure $8.50 per glass wholesale, $12.00 per glass retail, or
$19.95 per glass in a fancy restaurant.

It's not "used up" it may be past it's prime if it wasn't stored properly in a
cool dark place.

The value of a 375ml bottle of the 2002 Cabernet Franc Icewine is about $75.00

You would be drinking a very sweet wine, not money. The value should be
measured in the enjoyment of the wine and the pleasure that it brings.
