What are these compressed romans used for Alcohol % and volume info on these French wine labels?

Hello Typophile

If any of you knowledgable folk can identify the typefaces used for the alcohol percentage and volume on the wine labels uploaded in this post I would be awfully grateful. I particularly love the one used on the Krug label, as it has the lightest footprint. Any suggestions for compressed romans with a more charigraphic nature rather than transitional/modern which would be suitable for the purpose would be greatly appreciated.
