Photographs and condition
Use a straight-on view when photographing front and back labels, foil, closure, fill level, bottle base, case and accessories. Take the overview first and the detail photographs from the same setup.
Document fill level, foil, closure, labels, glass and original case. Describe damage and missing accessories separately from normal wear.
Storage, accessories and handover
For safe short-term care, keep the bottle in its current stable position, shaded and at a stable cool temperature. Avoid unnecessary movement and do not disturb the foil, capsule, cork or closure.
For a clear packaging match, keep each bottle with its own box, booklet, invoice and provenance documents.

A preliminary opinion starts with the label, fill level, foil, closure and any original box, not with the product name alone. The item and the original box, booklet and purchase papers still need to agree when collected.
