| LOUIX XIII GOLD TOPS (from 1979 onwards.)
A warning is in order: many combinations are offered at auctions that do not belong together. Over time, many bottles have apparently been put back in the wrong boxes. Proof of this are the many combinations where the bottle number written on the bottom, does not match the bottle number in the booklet or on the stopper. |
