Very Good. A stunning colour. There is a shallow flake to the front base edge. Some fine scratches. Label is stained heavily with some wear. The bottom left corner is missing and there is a small missing part to the top. A great label on a lovely looking bottle. Always known as hock wines, this may have been re-used by Lipton's back in the day as the label has certainly been on this bottle for a long time. Grade: 7.6 Estimate: $20 - 30
