Hello Everyone!

I've had this bottle for about 7 years now and know it contained Italian wine in the past.  The only identifier on the bottle is:  DF VINO D’ITALIA B

Has anyone ever seen this before, know what kind of wine, manufacture, worth (if any).  The jacket that the bottle is contained in appears to be brass and is hinged for bottle removal.  And its heavy!

My wife and I bought it at a little shop outside of London because it was unsual and cute - been meaning to use it as a decanter for Amaretto but haven't gotten 'round to it.

 
My apologies for the poor picture quality!

The bottle looks like a Chiati but the top looks like a cordial, maybe sherry glass. The bottles I thought were usually wicker or reed covered but maybe you could get refills fot the holder.

If you love what your doing it might be illegal, so watch your back.
