So i found two bottles of alcohol in my wall after doing some cleaning and while the label is intact I have no idea if they are something special or just junk and I should throw away.
I dont drink, so I have no idea if its worth any money. They must be older then 1994 as that is when we moved in, and the house was build in 1920's/30's and the same family owned it.

and

 
The first: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_wine
The second is labeled as Campari, but doesn't appear to be that, because Campari is red, not clear.
The second bottle seems to be Cordial Campari, a kind of Bitter, but i'm as yet unable to finad anymore about it.

EDIT:
hit something:
"The plant at Sesto S. Giovanni makes only one other product?Cordial Campari, a liqueur distilled from raspberries but virtually clear in color."

The Port is nothing special. The earliest vintage seems to be from '83 and that one only retails for about $36. That's on the low side for a Port.
 
so why did the previous owners put it in the wall? Housemother liked a glass or two sometimes?
 
It's probably for the ghost that lives there. You never know what you might find in a old house's walls. Human remains, bones, etc. Maybe even a full skeleton if your lucky.
 
Probably tastes like crap now I'm guessing
 
well, my uncle drinks Campari, and every time he does that, he smells like total crap. that stuff smells too, very strong odour..
