I don't know a lot about wines , not being a drinker of alcohol , hardly

The following was dug up by er indoors yesterday - given to us / won in raffles , over past years
If fact I recall us buying two bottles of wine , when we visited a winery on holiday some years ago - Cyprus - I think it may be the Bluehill Valley ones below .

- Cromwell Cream - Fortified British wine - best drunk within six months of purchase or within 3 months of opening

- Bluehill Valley - Soave - 2006
- Bluehill Valley - Pinot Grigio Blush - 2006

- Teachers Whisky

- Shloer Bucks Fizz - 06/09 on lid

Would they still be fit for consumption ?

I think the wine and the whiskey will be fine, but I wouldnt risk the Bucks Fizz.
Only one way to find out! I'll help you if you like.
I can't see that any of them would be harmful Some might even be better for "ageing", others might not.
Use the jackdaw method.
Anything with an alcohol content above 16% is likely to be drinkable although the flavour will perhaps have altered/deteriorated. Wines between 8% and 13% will change over time and most ordinary retail wines will eventually become quite unpalatable, but that will safely come to light on tasting. The vast majority of wines sold in the high street will deteriorate fairly rapidly after 5 years of storage in anything but ideal conditions, some before that.
the plonk and the gold watch will be fine, not sure about the Bucks fizz.
! think the schloer may be alcohol free? and i wouldn't touch the british "sherry" with someone else's bargepole
Teachers.

Only the whisky, the wines weren’t suitable for laying down and even if they had been if they haven’t been stored correctly chances are they’d be duff and as for the British ‘Sherry’...
The whisky would be ok as a mixer, it's not good enough to drink on its own. if it's been kept cool the wine should be ok for cooking or mulling keep the rest for slug or wasp traps in the summer.
Whisky probably fine. The rest will probably taste awful but they won't poison you!
