I’m not sure if there is any difference or if they simply have a different colored foil. Have googled and haven’t been able to find anything. Would appreciate any insight!

    One is genuine, one is counterfeit?

    My guess would be that one was meant for the US market and the other was meant for the internal Euro-zone, but I can’t see any difference in the labels so maybe the producer just ran out of one capsule type and moved to another.

    From a literal perspective, I’d guess about 20 mls of volume difference.

    In 1970 it’s highly likely that the maker just ran out of red caps so used a white one here. Winemaking has changed a lot in the last 50 years and there’s much more rigor to things like that these days.

    The one on the left could be a cellar release.

    The label looks newer.

    fwiw, Cantina Damilano is still producing barolos today (since 1890). A quick note would probably settle this question from the horse’s mouth.

  6. Any back label? Might have been before back labels became a thing.
