CONVERT YOUR UP-RIGHT CARD-BOARD BOXES TO SPECIALIST LAY-FLAT CARTONS AT A NOT-TO-BE REPEATED PRICE OF HK$20 PER CARTON (INCLUDING LABOUR)

Following a routine inspection of our Cellars, it was noted that some wine is still stored in their original card-board boxes which were designed for short-term upright storage.

We have placed these boxes in a horizontal position, but as you can imagine, this is not an ideal long-term solution for two reasons:

- The card-board box opening (the weakest point) if now facing side-ways.
- The condition of the card-board boxes deteriorates over time which is exacerbated by the boxes being laid down horizontally.  Therefore, there is always a danger that the opening can unfold no matter how much tape is used.

In order to avoid any such problems and in our pursuit to create the very best situation for long term cellaring, we have specially designed and produced our own reinforced lay flat cartons.  These new cartons are superior to the current card-board cartons for the following reasons:

- Special lay-flat design which mimics the wooden crates used for first-growth wine
- Ideal for long-term cellaring
- Only 6 bottles per carton
- Reinforced structure
- Built in wine separators

We are encouraging our members to transfer their wines from "up-right" carton to "lay-flat" cartons as soon as possible.

We are offering these new boxes and the labour involved to transfer the wines at cost price.
