AUCTION LEXICON:
The wine level is indicated in the same way for all types of wine and all bottle shapes. It is never given in centimeters, as this favors producers who use long capsules, or wide bottles, with no qualitative effect.
On the other hand, the age of the wine and its normal evolution are taken into account.
