Lot 413 level: very top shoulder; torn label, under original release capsule, cut capsule for inspection, Château and vintage branded cork, Danish import tax strip. Lot 414 levels: one upper/mid and two mid shoulder; two slightly corroded capsules, bin soiled labels.

Lot 416: MISSING LEVELS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Of the eight recent notes, its depth of colour is the first thing one notices, and its nose, rather like Lafite's is a bit slow to open up, Suprisingly sweet too yet a very tannic finish (at Aschau in 1994). In 1997, a corky, woody bottle at a Saintbury Club dinner. It was helped along by the cheese souffle. At the La Réserve tasting, despite its extraordinary sweet, nose-filling bouquet, a mammoth wine, all the component parts excessively represented. Most recently, a superb bottle at Josh Latner's dinner. Last tasted Jan 2000 ****(**) Another half century of life." MB, Vintage Wine
