Fields that cannot be shared across the nine bottles

  • Each bottle’s official name, vintage, volume, ABV, artist and official vintage page.
  • Each bottle’s fill level, capsule, seepage, damage to the main or back label, glass and bottle base.
  • Each bottle’s position in the wooden case, dividers, booklet, receipts, purchase and transfer records.
  • Assign missing photographs, missing components or an unverified vintage to the corresponding identifier; do not cover them with one general note.

Nine-Bottle Mouton Worksheet: frequently asked questions

Can the five example vintages be inserted directly into the nine-bottle inventory?

No. Enter an example only when the vintage on the item matches the official archive; research every other bottle separately.

Can one wooden case prove that all nine bottles share the same provenance?

Not by itself. Match the case number, bottle positions, bottle count, handover photographs and markings on each bottle.

Does an identical artist establish an identical version?

No. The vintage, wine, volume, printing, bottle condition, accessories and provenance must all match.

Primary sources and their scope

An official page supports only the names, specifications and history expressly stated there. The year, version, authenticity, accessories and condition of an individual item still require field-by-field verification.

Prepare verifiable records

When documenting “Nine Mouton Rothschild Bottles”, first assign the full view, front and back, key markings, accessories, provenance and visible anomalies a unique item identifier. Do not infer wine details that require measurement or physical inspection from a similar online image. You may send a numbered list and clear photographs via WhatsApp, or call +852 9453 0784. Making contact does not mean that an appraisal or quotation has been completed; any conclusion remains subject to verifiable records and inspection of the item.
