Views to include with the wine

Describe the fill level, closure, labels, signs of seepage and condition of the original wooden case separately for DRC Romanée-Saint-Vivant 1988; include wear, damage, repairs and missing parts exactly as they appear, without cleaning or concealment.
Safe storage before wine handover
While the bottle is awaiting review, 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; preserve the before-handover state in the photographs.
To keep every supplied component traceable to the bottle, retain each bottle, wooden case, divider, tissue, receipt and provenance document together; match every bottle to its case position before handover; separate views can then record damage or omissions.
