A really long time. It isn't indefinite, but as long as you keep it in a cool dry place out of direct sunlight it will last many, many years. It is also possible that after time the flavors will mellow and become more complex. Which sounds like a contradiction but it really isn't.

I've done some reading. Under the conditions thay you specified, 6-7 years would seem to be the best to drink by date but like milk, you can drink it up to the 9th year. By the time it gets that old, the vodka may lose some of its chemical composition and may start to chemically decay. Also, if it is a premium vodka and has a wooden cork, i'd recommend getting rid of that as soon as possible to avoid mold.

when I open a bottle of Johnny Walker (red), shelf life is less than a week. I generally kill it quickly!!!!

Because of the alcohol content it will last quite a while under the right circumstances (cool, dark location). However, depending on the bottle's seal, it can only loose potency (through evaporation of the alcohol).

There is no shelf life. It lasts for a really long time, years.

Alcohol lasts a long time, and it can not age in the bottle, only in barrels.
