Judging Wine by Its Label

label_CAR03C.jpgThere are many people out there that buy a bottle of wine just because they like the label on it. I sometime do this especially if I am in a mood to try something new. This is how I discovered Bonny Doon wines. Their labels are great. Well, winemakers are becoming keenly aware of this and have begun to make their wines seem accessible.
