Answer to Question 2

Wine labels are important sources of information for consumers as they assist to interpret the contents within the bottle by identifying the who, what, where, when and potentially how of the wine.

WHO  The producer which can be called: Winery, Chateau, Estate or Ngociant (neh-go-see-AHNT)

WHAT  The grape variety (not always listed, particularly in Europe). However, if the primarily labeling is based on the geographical approach (common in the Old World), then the what is also the where.

WHERE  The geographic location (where the grapes are grown). This could be very broad or incredible precise as a specific vineyard.

WHEN  The vintage date (the year the grapes were picked and the wine was made). For example, if a minimum 95 percent of the grapes were harvested in the 2008 growing season, the bottle is a 2008 vintage wine.

HOW  The level of quality or some other classification. Whereas these are not always listed or known, there may be clues that imply (but do not necessarily guarantee) quality, such as the specific geographical location of the vineyard(s), whether the wine came from a single vineyard, and, in the case of many French vineyards, the rating or quality classification of a particular vineyard.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
