Views to include with the wine
Show Château Lafite Rothschild 2002 as a whole before photographing the front and back labels, fill level, closure, bottle base, vintage marking, original wooden case and accessories; do not crop away the area that identifies where each detail appears.
Use clear views of the fill level, closure, labels, signs of seepage and condition of the original wooden case for Château Lafite Rothschild 2002, keeping scratches, staining and other wear visible in their original state.
Keeping condition and packaging unchanged
Between photography and handover, keep the bottle in its current stable position, away from heat and direct light, and avoid sudden temperature changes or unnecessary movement; do not disturb the capsule, cork or closure; do not clean the label or separate the bottle from its original case; retain the same arrangement of the bottle and its packaging.
Keep each bottle, wooden case, divider, tissue, receipt and provenance document together; match every bottle to its case position before handover; do not swap similar parts between items.
