HOW TO GUIDE FOR PRIVATE LABEL WINE

You can have your own private label on your wine or choose from our wine list with just a few simple steps. First you must decide if you want a label that is completely customized, or if personalizing one of standard design label from winelabel.com categories will suit you. You make the choice and we provide the tools to make it happen. Here are the three options available:

You Design & Submit a Label

To start the process of submitting your own customized label design, you need to decide on the wine, or for labels-only, which label size you need. Please follow our digital artwork file requirements. If you choose from our standard designs, click on labels only or labels and wine. Continue through the order process. Once your order is received we will email a label set up for your review and approval. You can make changes until happy with it.

We Design a Label for You

Starting from a blank white label can be a little intimidating even for a seasoned designer, but for most people this is completely overwhelming. Relax; we have designers that can create a label for you using your text, logo, photo, and color scheme. All of your information can be sent in digital format via email to our production department, where a label proof will be assembled for you. We ask that you follow our digital format requirements found on our Artwork Specs page. For example, we can't print a sharp label if you send in a small 14 pixel logo in 72 dpi resolution! We need a resolution of 300 dpi for all logos and photos. What looks good on your computer screen will not look good in print. Once your label is done, you will be emailed a proof to review and approve. Then your label goes to print. This service has an artwork fee of $50.

You Choose a Label from our Standard designs.

No need to worry about designing a label. We have given you lots of choices for label backgrounds. All you need to do is add your very own words. We have arranged our labels according to occasion types, but you can use any background that works for your special occasion. Once you add the words you want to a label you have created your own custom design. There is a $25.00 set up fee for this service (set up fee include USPS priority shipping).

How To Remove Wine Labels

Removing existing wine labels before you add your custom wine label will create a clean look on your wine bottle. To help you, here are some tips on removing existing wine labels.

The method you decide to use for removing an existing label depends on what was used originally to attach the label to the bottle. There are two basic ways wine labels are adhered to bottles. First, is adhesive, a pressure sensitive or what is commonly called a "sticker" label, used with most wines; or glue, generally found on European wines. After you figure out what kind of label you have (see Step One), take the appropriate steps to remove it.

Step One for Both Label Types:
Use a fingernail or razor to raise the corner of the label. If the back, or inside, of the label is sticky, follow the steps for "sticker" labels. If the label back is NOT sticky, follow the steps for "glued" labels.

STICKER WINE LABELS
Step Two:
For "sticker" wine labels, the next step is to run the hottest water you can over the label to make removal easier and quicker. Let the bottle stand in water up to the top of the existing label for a few minutes.

Step Three:
Test the label to see if it's ready to be removed by carefully sliding a razor under the label edge to start. If it comes up easily, you will be able to gently pull the label off in a large section.

Step Four:
Thoroughly dry the bottle and apply your new custom label from Winelabel.com

GLUED WINE LABELS
Step Two:
For a "glued" wine label, place the bottle in warm water in a container deep enough to cover the bottle above the label. Let it stand until the water begins to cool.

Step Three:
Test the label to see if it's ready to remove by carefully sliding a razor under the label edge. If it's ready, you will be able to pull the label off. When you peel the label off, it may begin to separate with some of the label remaining stuck to the bottle. Take a razor and use it to start peeling the label from the other side.

Step Four:
Thoroughly dry the bottle and apply your new custom label from Winelabel.com
