Can anyone recommend a wine or liquor that was bottled in 1967 that will peak this year?

Question

I'd like to get my hubby a bottle of wine or liquor as a 40th birthday present that was bottled the year he was born.

Any suggestions for something good that will be peaking at its 40th year?

Answer 1

I've never had any of these, but if you can find them and are willing to spend the $$... Although, '67 was not a very good year in France, but a great year in Tuscany (Chianti or Brunello).

Wine is a very limited and expensive choice, most wines from that year are well past there peak.
