Ex posterioribus Labeonis libri
Ex libro III
The Same, On the Last Works of Labeo, Book III. A certain testator kept wine of Surrentum in earthen urns, and he bequeathed it to you in jars. Labeo and Trebatius gave it as their opinion that all the wine contained in the urns was bequeathed. 1Where sweetened wines are bequeathed, and no other designation is contained in the will, all the following are included in the legacy, namely: wine mixed with honey, wine made of raisins, new wine boiled and spiced, and similar beverages, including all those made of grapes, figs, dates, and dried fruits. 2Where a legacy is bequeathed as follows, “I give and bequeath the wine in my jars, my Aminisean and Greek wine, and all my sweet beverages,” Labeo thinks that nothing will be included under the latter term, except the beverages which have been made by mixing other substances with the wine contained in the jars of the testator. This opinion I do not reject.
