How To Read A Wine Label
|
Wine labels have a
lot of information on them. Some of it is critical to understanding
what is in the bottle, and some of it is just blowing smoke. Here’s
a quick guide to help you know what matters, how to spot a bargain,
and what to ignore.
There are 2 main styles of wine labels commonly found in the stores.
A wine identified by its brand name or a wine designated by its
appellation credentials. A wine that is labeled by it’s brand will
indicate what grapes it’s made of on the front label (whether it
be chardonnay or ‘red blend’). A wine that is identified by its
appellation credentials relies on the appellation’s quality level
rules and regulations to indicate what’s in the bottle. A perfect
example of an appellation wine is Chablis: Nowhere on a Chablis
label is a mention of chardonnay as the grape, nor that Chablis
is typically an unoaked chardonnay.
Understanding a wine label may not always tell you how the wine
tastes but it can help you get a better picture of exactly what
you are buying.
