Niepoort 1952 Garrafeira
The second generation of the Niepoort family, in the late 19th century, had the fortunate idea of purchasing some 4000 glass balloons (in the form of old apothecaries’ bottles) of dark-green glass with varying capacities from 8 to 11 liters.

Eduard Karel Jacob van der Niepoort sadly died early and it was his son, Eduard Marius van der Niepoort, Dirk’s grandfather, who gave purpose to the demijohns by bottling the best wines of the 1931 harvest, thus creating the type “Garrafeira Niepoort”.

Kweichow Moutai 1968 Big-Leaf Sunflower
In 1968 the Revolutionary Committee of Kweichow Moutai Distillery announced the replacement of the Feitian export label by a new logo depicting a sunflower. The initial design, nicknamed 'big-leaf sunflower' was almost immediately replaced by a new design, the small-leaf sunflower, which was sold between 1969 and 1978.

This makes the big-leaf sunflower one of the rarest Moutai's ever produced; it took until 2012 before a bottle actually surfaced, prior the big sunflower was often considered to be some kind of urban legend.
