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.
Use one overview to show how the accessories belong with the bottle, then keep each bottle, wooden case, divider, tissue, receipt and provenance document together; match every bottle to its case position before handover; avoid mixing parts from similar items.
