Sloshed: Maybe We Should Be Judging Wines by Their Labels

Photo: iStockphoto Like plenty of normal people, I buy wine mostly based on the label. Sure, price is important — and those little cards with the scores help, too — but, frankly, if I do not like the label, I will not buy the wine, simple as that. You know that wine with the three moose wearing sunglasses? It’s called 3 Blind Moose? And so, a proposal: If labels are so important to our wine-buying choices — and I am saying they are — then we should understand labels just as we understand the other non-label parts of the wine (e.g., the grapes and the regions and stuff). Not to worry: I have gone into the field and done some research. The only authoritative chart on wine labels that you're likely to see today.Illustration: Jen Cotton The French The grand-cestor of all wine labels; the French is very word-heavy and relies on classic fonts most of the time.
