There are a lot of factors that have to be determined before knowing if the bottle is worth anything. The major factor is how was the bottle stored all of these years? In a temperature-controlled cellar? If not, then it's not worth much at all. Anyway, being a 1978 vintage, it's most likely past its prime.
