[net.wines] Recalcitrant Labels

When wine bottle labels will not come off any other way, it may be
necessary to call the winery to find out how to do it. This happened
with a bottle of Ridge Zinfandel one time. It seems they were using
some non-standard type of glue that simply would not allow the label
to be soaked off normally with steam or hot water. They suggested 
putting the bottle in the freezer for a few hours then trying to remove
the label with a razor blade. Surprisingly enough, this worked.
