Photographs that show key details
Show Pétrus 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.
Condition photographs for Pétrus should cover the fill level, closure, labels, signs of seepage and condition of the original wooden case, together with packaging wear and any missing accessory.
Keeping condition and packaging unchanged
Until the next 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; do not obscure wear or damage already visible in the photographs.
With Pétrus, keep each bottle, wooden case, divider, tissue, receipt and provenance document together; match every bottle to its case position before handover; show the complete group once before photographing each accessory.
