I tend to think more of the data than the aesthetics -- of course it would help us if all wine were barcoded! But the aesthetics of wine are clearly important! Kudos to those with an eye for practical design. Good post, Scott. I tend to think more of the data than the aesthetics — of course it would help us if all wine were barcoded!

Come hard or go home, as an old friend used to say. Great art happens when a banal idea is re-thought.

It may not look pretty (above examples excepted), but it will mean that one man's wine can be cleanly linked to another Agreed, it would make our lives so much easier if each wine had a SKU number / barcode.

This is even more of a problem with wineries utilizing bar codes that makes inventory management and more extremely cumbersome in the wine industry.
