	Consumerism \| Wine Label Basics
		There are collectors of wine labels who don't consume wine and consumers of wine who base their purchases entirely on the appeal of the labels.
		Conversely, U.S. wines that are exported to Europe may sometimes be required to cover up or obliterate the alcohol warning statement (which many worldly wine drinkers think is ludicrous, anyway, and prompts them to question the general American mental capacity).
		Wines tend to oxidize more slowly and age better in larger bottles, so although there are no guarantees, big bottles are preferable to small in old wines.

		These labels were made from all kinds of materials and they were made in every period, especially from 1735 to 1860 (when it became legal to sell wine in single bottles in the UK) but also thereafter, thus demonstrating the enduring popularity of wines like Madeira in the UK.
		Wine labels with a grape's name on it seem to be rarer.

		In the case of the straightforward William Hill, the wine is Chardonnay grown in Napa Valley.
		Germany represents the pinnacle of cryptic wine labeling, but the most important indicator of high quality rests in the tiny phrase Qualitätswein mit Prädikat (QmP), which translates as "quality wine with special attributes."
