Is this some kind of Excise Stamp or just a mandatory certificate of authenticity?

I learned this before going to Italy a couple years ago and I can tell you the wine and prosecco I bought while there was the best I've ever had. All DOCG, of course. Those labels are life savers!

Thanks for your comment on the other thread. As per my message left in reply.

I was thinking the same initially, I've been drinking Italian wine for years (a friend owns a great Italian restaurant and visits Italy and brings back some of the less well known wines to try with his customers and friends). I spoke to a woman in sales and she has confirmed they are labelled just not in the images on the site but I'll find out for sure on monday or tuesday on arrival.

Not necessarily. See my reply to this post. (I'm a Master of Wine and used to be a Sommelier years ago).

Fair enough. I haven't tried it to tell if you're giving them too much of the benefit. (You're ahead of me in this particular category. I've only had a few of the courses. I'm mainly festival management.)

Roberto , can you please explain your reaction to and subsequent dismissal of my comment? There was zero ill-intent or disrespect implied or intended in what I said. Your reaction to me, on the other hand, was completely unhinged. Do I need to remind you who in this community has AWAYS had your back and defended you when, quite frankly, that was a very difficult thing to do? You owe me an explanation here.
