The lot is displayed at A10 by Artmark, Cesianu-Racoviță Palace, Bucharest.
It was allowed to mature in barrels until its bottling around 1950, an exceptionally ageing period, which allowed it to develop an aromatic complexity hard to match. A bottling in a crystal decanter obviously adds an extra touch of elegance and exclusivity to this edition, suggesting that its recipient was probably a collector or a high-ranking person.
