Hello

I'm wine label collector and I have a label from Iran, I'm not able to
identify.
May be it is (grape?) juice (sultane is a dry grape isn't it?), because they
don't drink wine in Iran, may be it is so old that it is from wine but it
doesn't seem so old to me
Who is able to help me
I've put it on my site:

http://home.planet.nl/~schoe024/mieke/iran.html

thanks

Jenny

I really don't know but I found this text :

" Drinking has formed part of our culture almost since time began. In
the mountainous area between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, where
Noah's Ark landed on the mountains of Ararat, the vine has been native
for thousands of years"

So that Ararat on the label reflects to this.....;-))

Regards,

Robèrt

Hi Robèrt

Thanks for answering
but I think that in that periode they had no labels and no telephone aswell
;-)

But may be they still have grapes on the Ararat and this is a label from
grape juice
