Nice colour and a pretty solid bottle. 2. Good. Polished. Has had a light tumble clean to remove external haze although the inside is still kind of dull. There are scratches and scuffs over the surface and evidence of pitting throughout. Lip is worn with a bit of pitting and a couple of little nibbles. An OK bottle that could use a better clean up.
