Is it possible to tell the quality of wine simply by the label? Wine bottle labels offer more information to the trained eye than one would think. There are obvious wines that should be avoided just by the label. Without naming specific wines, there are a few out there with cartoon images of drunken sailors gracing their label. I can tell you from experience that these wines are about as cheap as they taste. Some are worthy of being sucked down via the brown paper bag they come in. Most discerning individuals can look at these wine bottle labels and offer the obvious opinion.
However, considering how difficult it can be to choose a good wine, the label is often the only indication of the wine’s quality. Most of us know from experience how frustrating it can be to run out to pick up a bottle of wine for the company heading over without being able to discern the right wine for the occasion.
