19 Crimes
I really enjoy the wild variety of wine and beer labels nowadays.
But sometimes I wonder if they are selling the name? or the wine?
19 Crimes didn't make me want to try this variety.

Just stick with a great Bordeaux wine, St-Émilion is my favorite. You can NEVER go wrong with a Bordeaux wine ... if you wanna splurge, go for a Chateau Cheval Blanc! Enjoy

Think Bill's comment sums this all up. Excellent the B&W treatment. V

To be fair you'd probably have to be pretty heavily soused to even contemplate "stealing a shroud out of a grave".
Given the label and the mug shot I think the monochromatic treatment of the shot is spot on.

Interesting choice for a label, is he a criminal or is it just a set?
Many of the British beers have crazy names - Everards Tiger, Speckled Hen, Badger's Tanglefoot, Fursty Ferret, Pickled Partridge - to name just a few!

Love the tones and it's a great image Lynn...BV

Yes, it used to be about the quality of the grape juice, now it is all marketing.

Very interesting observation and capture. Labels have turned into an art in themselves, and I do wonder if they reflect the quality of the beverage. V.

A bit like TV, Lynn...remember when we had the 6 o'clock news and that was is for the day !!! This wouldn't inspire anyone to relax, but it makes a darn good photo. V

Sure is interesting. The tones fit perfectly with the subject. I have bought wine based on the bottle. V
