Many Different Wines Many Different Styles

by Sharon Thorley

Wine labels tell a story about the wine, the vineyard and the history behind them. Therefore each type of wine will have a slightly different label, other than the wine name, giving the vineyard a personalized wine bottle label.

The wine label is much more personalized than simply providing information on the kind of wine, year of production, and warnings about drinking wine. Wine producers may have artworks designed specifically for the individual label, vintage, type of wine, or even the designer himself, sometime the label may even tell you the story about the wine maker, and the place where the wine is produced.

Older labels that are more traditional may contain a picture of what the property originally looked like when the wine was first created. It may be just a picture of the vineyard, or the barrels or the warehouses or even the house that belonged to the owners. It can even have commissioned artwork by famous painters and artists.

Wine labels come in many types. They can be large or small, wrap around the bottles or even cover most of the bottle’s surface. The labels variations depend on the region where the wine comes from, or what type of wine it is, the vintage’s age, or the vineyard’s age as well as the individual choices of the owners of the vineyard.

There are many things to consider when looking at personalized wine bottle labels. The first thing is to look at the size. Older vintages are more likely to have smaller labels rather than labels that cover the entire bottle. This is because older vineyards are less likely to change from styles that are more traditional, it does not however mean that they do not change label sizes.

After examining the label size, then inspect the label design. Modern art will indicate a forward thinking approach and give you an idea of the age of the vineyard. The newer the vineyard, the more likely the label will change with each and every vintage and for each variety of wine.

Older art that is more traditional is more likely to be found on older vineyards or vintages that are more traditional. If you are looking at wine bottle labels you may realize that all wine bottles are personalized based on the vintage and based on the vineyard that produces the wine. They may also change based on the type of wine.

If you are looking into learning about wine, you can learn a significant amount by learning how to read a wine label and learning how to tell about the vineyard and the vintage based on the type of label that is used. Different wine, different vintages, different vineyards, are going to produce different labels.
