Buddy of mine had a bottle of Old Granddad that he'd been saving...
Bottle was late 70's vintage. We cracked it open and had a toast to our dad's after a day of hunting and cleaning deer. It was awful and undrinkable. I'm sure the seal had failed as the bottle was not full before we opened it. Ended up "pouring one out" for our pops which consisted of the entire rest of the bottle.

The bottles themselves generally sell for $30-$50 empty.
