Bottle Château du Glana 1970 Saint-Julien old wine Bordeaux Grand Cru

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description Old red wine bottle, 1970 vintage, from Château du Glana estate. The bottle has a classic Bordeaux shape, with a high shoulder and green-tinted glass. The red metal capsule shows a marked patina and visible oxidation traces, typical of a wine that has aged for several decades. The front label, partly patinated and stained, remains globally legible. The mentions "Château du Glana", "1970", and "Grand Cru Exceptionnel" are clearly distinguishable.

The denomination "Saint-Julien" appears in red letters on the lower part of the label, indicating the prestigious appellation of Médoc, Bordeaux. A drawing of the château and vineyards adorns the center of the label, surrounded by traditional period printing details. The signature "Gabriel Meffre" is visible, as well as the mention "Mis en bouteille au château" (Estate bottled) on the lower part of the label.

The wine level, visible by transparency, seems consistent for a bottle of this era: the liquid reaches the base of the neck, a classic indicator for a wine over 50 years old. The entire bottle shows natural aging, with traces of dust, oxidation marks on the capsule, and wear and tear on the label paper.

The typography, the graphic style of the label, and the red lacquered metal capsule are emblematic of Bordeaux bottlings from the 1970s. No other decorative elements or accessories are visible on the displayed side. No content from the back or bottom is visible in this image.

This old wine is an authentic piece for connoisseurs of historic grand crus, rare vintages, and Bordeaux wine heritage. The bottle is offered in the condition strictly visible in the photo, with no guarantee as to the quality of the wine after opening.

Condition Used bottle, sold as is. Oxidized capsule, patinated and partially stained label, wine level consistent with age. No cork visible on the displayed side. Photos are contractual.
