I find myself buying a bottle based off the label when it reminds me of someone and I gift it to them. There’s a friend to whom I issued the nickname “Cupcake” a long while ago. When I discovered the wine, she ended up with a few bottles. It’s fun!

Yeah, I saw the 3 or 4 posts in different threads and got the message with the vanishing giphy in this one. I guess my attempt to recreate a reply in the style of the offending poster fell flat.
I would never do something like that; I mean Who does right!! >>No wait a sec: who ordered that W00T cellars wine with the cool label on it?? My account must have been hacked, and that’s all I have to say about that…
@rjquillin I’ve had the Marilyn Merlot. A few years back a local store had it on sale (probably $10). I bought a bottle, tried it, and went back for a couple more. The picture on the bottles I got were quite a bit tamer.
Bottles can be collectable ya know.
Or just something that totally intrigues you
@Cerridwyn True enough, but then you’re not buying a bottle of wine, you’re buying an investment or a pretty object…
@rpm
true that
and lots of people i know have done it.
i have 2 bottles of star trek wine to prove it, lol

I like when the ink is printed directly on the label. I have a couple empty river of skulls decorating the house

I have learned much from your valuable yet unintended disappearing act, now click on my random link

pukaka has been de-platformed/cancelled as of this AM,
just left the edited post up as there is a whisper.

@chipgreen I thought it was pretty funny, but I didn’t follow the spammers’ link to know what it was.
@rjquillin
They were all different links. I didn’t click on any of them either. Mine was just one of those “end of the internet” pages.

For some reason I’ve rather liked the labels, and wine, from I Giusti & Zanza

Or the Nova Marilyn Merlot collection; not had the wine.
