Thank you for the comment, Gottfried - and even more so for the discussion on Twitter. The bottom of the bottle actually says 'modèle déposé', meaning that it is a registered design. It also indicates that this is a 75cl bottle and mentions '63mm', so I assume that would indicate the bottle should be filled up to 63mm below the top. I now remember being told that Molitor uses heavy Burgundy bottles for these wines (which would explain the modèle déposé).
While I love the bottle, I am actually more curious about the high alcohol level and what to make of it (that is what I meant by 'enlighten'). I still haven't really come to a conclusion, but 15%...
