It's also great to see you keep a positive attitude in the midst of such bureaucratic BS. I'm glad to have shared an idea/shortcut with you... and I promise not to tell your folks about it.<BR/><BR/>Agreed, Edward. The labeling requirements do, especially after a while, seem tediously self-evident at best.<BR/><BR/>PLS, aka JDH,<BR/>Very good point, although really you raise an entirely different spin on labeling difficulties -- that of the US obsession with proprietary, trademarked branding. I can think of at least a few other such instances right off the top of my head. Perhaps fodder for another post, although I'd hate to find myself caught up in the middle of a lawsuit....David McDuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03274955351036700406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017457764988110566.post-15509379540412845592008-09-09T17:33:00.000-04:002008-09-09T17:33:00.000-04:00Good reading, David.

Hans Herzog ran into trademark issues in the US, and so had to re-label all their wines destined for US export as "Hans Family Estate'. Poof! went their brand. Really annoying on CellarTracker as well.Director, Lab Outreachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10624832393197386064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8017457764988110566.post-20789026007638292912008-09-09T09:25:00.000-04:002008-09-09T09:25:00.000-04:00What a nightmare!
