Corked bottle? Laying on it’s side hopefully.
Many, many years.

Zinfandels don’t always have the shelf life of a bordeaux style wine (cabs, cab francs, etc) because they don’t have the tanin structure. I would say no more than ten years, and if the tanin structure is not there then less. Typical Zin’s should be drank within 5-7 years.

Gallo makes this wine aimed at young inexperienced sippers.
It is NOT a deep, rich and higher alcohol wine we experienced Zin drinkers look for but a completely different version :: light, low in alc and sweet without the subtlequalities associated with Zinfandels.
It’s made to be opened and finished when purchased; the shelf life would not be more than a year.

Wines are not given a shelf life. If they are stored properly then never go bad, they just dont live up to their full potential. A Zin should be fine 5 years from its vintage maybe even 10 (the red kind not the pink aka white zinfandel.) Pop it tonight with a bowl of pasta and some good bread.
