Lafite's bottle seal is the easiest to identify. Above his design is the winery castle, with the words Lafite Rothschild in the middle. The bottle-sealing tin in the picture is from 1980s to 2002, and the design is similar. The only difference is that the color of the iron sheet is slightly different, showing a different red color.
Two: Look at the wine stopper.
The bottle stoppers of Lafite in different years are displayed from left to right, 1983, 1985, 1986, 1994, 1995, 1997,/kloc-. The year is printed on one side of the wine stopper, but the design and year are not printed on the top of the wine stopper, while the design of Lafite is printed on the other side of the wine stopper, with the words Grand Vin de Chateau Lafite Rothschild written on it. In fact, Lafite's wine stopper design is similar in different years.
Three: Look at the bottle.
Before Lafite 1996, the wine bottle was just like a bottle of ordinary Bordeaux wine, and there was no pattern under the bottleneck. But at 1996, in order to prevent counterfeiting, the winery adopted a special wine bottle.
As early as Lafite 1985, the bottle was engraved with special patterns, because it commemorates the astronomical phenomenon that Comet Halley only returns once every 76 years. So the words 1985 and the pattern of Halley's comet were engraved on the bottle. In addition to this special edition, Lafite has been using ordinary Bordeaux bottles. It was not until 1996 that the bottle was engraved with the logo of the Rothschild family, the pattern of five arrows, and the word Lafite in the middle. At 1999, the wine bottle has a new pattern.
There was a special astronomical phenomenon that year, so the words 1999 were engraved on the bottle and the patterns of the day and the month were printed. Because the sun and the moon are represented by the colors of gold and silver, drinkers jokingly call them "gold and silver embellishment". Lafite often designs new wine bottles according to the astronomical phenomena of that year, which may be his special love for astronomy. The 2000 Lafite wine bottle is also a special edition. Because it is a millennium, the word 2000 is engraved in the middle of five arrows, replacing the previous word Lafite.
Identify true and false Lafite:
The small Lafite bottles of 1 and 07 08 are all brown, and the main labels are silk-printed. It feels just like RMB 100. If you have ink-jet printing in your hand, throw away some.
2. There are four and a half impressions (watermarks) on the primary and secondary cards, all of which are on 07 08. You must remember this. Fake goods are thicker, and real goods are more concealed.
3.06.07.08 The name on the main label of Little Lafite can be scraped off without changing the bottom. However, it is not just as vague as a newspaper. Be careful.
4. At the bottom of Lafite's bottle, here is a string of numbers, and here is a string of numbers. What the laser hits is related to the year. If it doesn't match the standard year, throw it out. If the depth difference is too much, it is doubtful. It is best to reserve a flashlight for jewelry appraisal.
The little Lafite in 5.08 has reliefs, and the little Lafite in 08 without reliefs can be thrown away. At this time, you should also have a magnifying glass to use.
6. The font on the wine cover must be clear and not sloppy. Some profiteers will replace them with other Lafite families.
