Grands Échezeaux 1985: identification and appraisal guide
Leave Grands Échezeaux 1985 unchanged and capture the complete wine bottle before moving closer to labels, marks or areas of wear. Show the date wording 1985 first, then use separate close-ups for the label, fill level, capsule or closure and any original case.

Use the date wording 1985 as the first check for Grands Échezeaux 1985. Photograph the item before separating it from the original case, purchase papers and other matching accessories.
Photographs and condition
Use a straight-on view when photographing front and back labels, capsule, closure, fill level, bottle base, case and accessories. Take the overview first and the detail photographs from the same setup.
Record fill level, capsule, closure, labels, glass and original case. Describe damage and missing accessories separately from normal wear.
Storage, accessories and handover
Until collection is arranged, 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.
When preparing for collection, keep each bottle with its own case, tissue, booklet, invoice and provenance documents.
