I just bought 2 bottles of 2010 Pegau Reservee and noticed that the foil is a maroon / brown color which is noticeably different from my other vintages. All other vintages in my cellar are a brighter red color. I bought this wine from a reputable retailer in San Francisco.
Is this a problem? Should I be worried that I just spent significant money on wine that my have been tampered with? A quick Google image search doesn’t help much in terms of the foil color.
By grey market bottle, this simply means that this bottle came through a different distribution channel than that of the authorized importer for this wine.
Bought 4 Chateau de Fieuzal 2005 from the same source in a sale and 3 were identical with the last one having that green sticker. Since I am locked in a monopole and I trust the chain of supply I was not suspicious but curious.
Thanks for the answer ( and sorry for the thread jacking)
