Dated 13 January 1908 from his Giverny estate, Monet writes to Monsieur Gravereau, who supplied Monet with his preferred wine. In this letter, Monet reserves ''7 barrels of your red wine, if it is of the same quality as that of your last shipment. For white wine, as I was not happy with the last, I do not request any more, since it is not at all good as formerly...'' He signs at the conclusion ''Claude Monet''. Letter runs two pages on bifolium, card-style stationery measuring 5.25'' x 8''. Fold and smudge to portion of writing on first page, else near fine with bold handwriting.
