Wine Labels Explained

What Do The Labels Mean?

There is a lot of data in the label of a bottle of wine, and if you are not a connoisseur of wine it can be a small overwhelming at first glance. The majority of wine labels are fairly comparable although, containing details on the winery exactly where the wine was produced, the 'appellation' (the country or region exactly where the grapes that went into the wine were grown), the selection (the kind of grapes the wine was produced from) and the vintage (the year when the grapes were harvested}. The strength / alcohol content of the wine is also displayed on the label.

Some additional information could appear based on the country in which the wine was bottled. As an example, wines bottled in the USA are required to have the name and address of the bottler displayed on the label, along with certain consumer warnings. There are also often some particulars on the ripeness of the grapes, and info about the winery that produced the wine.
