Howdy:
I just got a case of Glen Ellen Cabernet. As I pulled the 750 ml bottles out of the box I noticed someting unusual about the labels. Looking closer I noted that there was one label upon another. I pulled off the topmost label, Cabernet 2001, to find a label for Merlot 2002 underneath!
After a bit of detective work I found the number for customer service at Wine Group Inc. handling issues concerning Glen Ellen (whom they bought out). Customer service person in a recording said to leave a detailed message and that she would get back to me in a couple of days.
Anyone have comments on the practice of putting a label for Cabernet over a label for Merlot... besides backdating the vintage a year?
Sincerely, Tom
