AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Visual Description
This antique wine bottle features a traditional Bordeaux shape, with a pronounced shoulder and dark green tinted glass, typical of the region's great growths. The central label, clearly legible, distinctly states "CHATEAU DU GLANA", vintage 1970, and mentions "Grand Cru Exceptionnel". The label's visual displays a detailed illustration of the wine estate, accompanied by the mention "SAINT-JULIEN" in red letters, highlighting the prestigious Médoc appellation.

The original capsule, faded red, shows visible traces of deposit and patina, testifying to the bottle's age. The mention "GABRIEL MEFFRE - PROPRIÉTAIRE" is also visible on the neckband, an authentic detail specific to traditional bottlings. The upper part of the label has some signs of wear, but the whole remains well-preserved and legible.

The bottle is full, the wine level appearing consistent with natural aging. No chips or cracks are visible on the glass from the presented side. The typography and graphic style of the label are typical of the 1970s, with elegant sobriety and a refined layout, characteristic of the great Bordeaux châteaux of that era.

The overall visual, the capsule's patina, and the slightly yellowed appearance of the label give this bottle an authentic character, sought after by collectors of antique objects and fine wines. The whole is photographed in a bright environment, reflecting plays of color on the wooden table, which highlights the bottle and its label.

The visible side shows no major defects other than natural wear and tear due to age, which confirms the vintage character of the bottle. The absence of other decorative elements or a back label on the visible part respects the classic presentation of great Bordeaux growths.
