Amazingly resilient Riesling – still drinkable despite cork falling in

To the left the cork@the base of the bottle

Dug out a 1976 Forster Ungeheur Riesling Spätlese, Rheinfalz, Deinhard last evening - no idea when or where we bought this probably 30 years ago. Opened it because I noticed that the cork had completely fallen, so level down a couple of inches and wine only held in by firm lead capsule! have no idea how long ago the cork slipped into the wine!

Just to show how resilient some wines are this is very drinkable sporting a deeply burnished gold colour and alcohol between 8-10 (wonderfully imprecise).
