Wine Alcohol Labeling

Please forgive me if this has already been discussed. If so, I would love to see the link.

Does anyone have a problem with so many of the California wines printing their ABV number on the label which, when viewed (even with bright light and reading glasses), cannot be easily seen? I am not a guy who endorses more government regulation, but (IMHO) the wine producers should wise up and not piss off the folks who support their right to label things as they please.

…I could be wrong. [scratch.gif]

The relative sizes of various type faces on the LEGAL label (not the arty part) is already regulated and I have never seen a label with type to small to read (and I am BLIND without my reading glasses!).

I have. I’d definitely need my readers in many cases.

It may not have looked that way on the label approval application, since there rarely is any follow up unless someone complains.
