Old antique wine bottle??

Came across this, the information from various sources is that it is a wine bottle or soda bottle. Hand blown and quite a thin glass. Wondered if anyone could possible date it for me??

Hello and welcome

I have seen a number of modern wine bottles in this shape. It would be necessary to see some clear shots of the bottle to help you. In specific, I would need to clearly see the details of the lip/mouth and the general glass character.

Make use of the macro setting on your camera if it has one. Also consider indirect (cloudy or shade) outdoor lighting.

Does it make any difference to know we found it in an old cottage (vacated at least 50 years ago) in Corfu, Greece?? Photo of lip/mouth attached. Will take a photo outside tomorrow to hopefully give you some more ideas.........first pic to give you an idea that its pretty long necked. pic 2 to show you the lip, pic 3 is the base.
