how to store at home
Could you describe the condition of the label, fill level, and capsule? Are there any precautions, and how should I store it at home?
The label is very damaged, reflected in its low score. The fill level is mid shoulder, which is unusually low for a 2018 wine. While the capsule is intact, a mid shoulder fill level can sometimes indicate a higher risk of oxidation or premature aging. Please consider this condition when purchasing. For home storage, keep the bottle horizontally in a cool, dark place with stable temperature and humidity, away from vibrations.
