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.
For the condition review, show fill level, capsule, closure, labels, glass and original case. Mention any damage, repair or missing part without trying to improve it.
Storage, accessories and handover
After taking the photos, store the wine in the same stable position in which it is currently kept, away from light and changing temperatures. Avoid moving it unnecessarily, and leave the capsule, cork, closure and label as found.
To avoid mixing similar items, keep each bottle with its own case, tissue, booklet, invoice and provenance documents.
