Photographs and condition
Use a straight-on view when photographing front and back labels, capsule, closure, fill level, bottle base, case and accessories. Include the packaging where it helps match a mark to the item.
Capture the current condition of fill level, capsule, closure, labels, glass and original case. Separate visible condition from assumptions about age or rarity.
Storage, accessories and handover
Before the item is moved, retain the bottle's current stable position and protect it from light, heat, vibration and temperature swings. Do not disturb the capsule, cork or closure or attempt to clean the label.
To avoid mixing similar items, keep each bottle with its own case, tissue, booklet, invoice and provenance documents.
