At the top the terms describe the sweetness levels of wine or sparkling wine, especially in French wines like Champagne:
Doux – Very sweet
Mi-doux – Moderately sweet, between demi-sec and doux
Mi-sec – Similar to demi-sec, meaning medium-sweet
Sec – Dry but still slightly sweet
Because of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm.
When framed these colourful and detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time.
These posters are sent as unframed. They will be delivered in a cardboard tube for protection.
