How to remove labels etc,

[hotwine]

I've been keeping labels for only the past year or so, as a way to jog my fading memory of what to look for when visiting wine shops. I simply allow hot water to flow over the label for a minute or so, then lay a small sheet of clear contact paper over the label (careful not to create air bubbles), and peel off the label by curling up one corner of the contact paper and gently tugging the label off. Success rate is about 80%.... which is a lot better than not trying at all. The label then gets stuck onto a tasting note page in the cellar book. I should keep notes on the same page, but don't... just post them here and into the database (currently Cellar Savant).
