Labeled a few bottles this weekend
I decided to label a few batches of wine at the same time since it takes so long to clean up afterwards. I think it worked out pretty good.

I also came up with a new blend that is very tasty, it's moscato and cranberry. I call it summer sunset. I even used a photo that I took while in San Diego for the label.

Great looking labels, and I think that new blend would be an awesome flavor. I can almost taste it by the description.
Interested in the labeling machine. Where'd you get that?

Great looking labels nice photo's. Question: What information do you put on your labels other than wines name?

Yeah, where did you get the label machine. It looks like it does a nice job, and congrats on the new batch.

I got that off ebay about a year ago. It's a Potdevin label paster. I was bidding on one very similar to it and got up to more than I wanted to pay for it so I dropped out. A few days later the same seller contacted me and asked if i wanted to buy one just like it for the last bid that I gave on it so I took it right away.

I put the year that I started the wine, the finished ABV, my name and my city, the ml of the bottle, and the name of the wine or what it's made of.
Here is a closeup of the sunset wine.
