Now that is the most intelligent statement in this whole thread
(because it happens to agree with my position).

I don't really feel strongly one way or the other if the grape
varieties should be on the label, although I probably lean more toward
yes since knowledge is good. If you don't care what grapes are in the
bottle, don't read it.

What I can't understand it what is to be gained from forbidding the
information on the label? I say leave it up to the grower/winemaker.
