Extended information:

< p>But when it comes to the official label, there are two capacity labeling methods, and there are no unified regulations. Some may label according to France's own custom, and some may consider using a method that is in line with international standards.

For example, among the "top five" famous chateaus in Bordeaux, France, Margaux's standard bottles and small-capacity bottles use the cl. labeling method: 75cl and 37.5cl; Lafite's standard bottle uses cl. 75cl, but Small bottles are marked with milliliters 375ml; Latour's standard bottles and small-capacity bottles are marked with milliliters. Therefore, both methods of marking the capacity on the front label of the wine bottle are normal and cannot be used as a basis for identification.

If you want to make a preliminary and simple identification of whether the bottle is imported from France based on the capacity mark, you should look at the scale capacity mark on the glass bottle in the inner ring at the bottom of the bottle, which should generally be marked as 75CL.
