As soon as I saw the picture, I got the impression that it’s bottled in France. Hence, the sherry was made in Spain, while the air in the top is from France. In our museum of modern arts in Stockholm, we have a work of art that contains a bottle of air from Paris, so it’s not as strange as it may sound.
It’s a fake picture… or anyway very misleading. The bottom half is cut off where it says “Vinegar”. They aren’t selling Sherry but Sherry Vinegar. The Sherry was made in Spain but the Vinegar mix made in France. It helps if you don’t deliberately leave half the photo out!
It wouldn’t matter if the rest of the label said My Sherry d’Amour (yes, I know the song title is My Cherie d’Amour). The fail is stating that it is a product of two countries.
i didnt mean for the vinegar part to be cut off. i was having trouble getting both the label and the cap in the pic. (my phone sucks) but it never clarifies why it says 2 countries on it
Yes, but the railroad gauges in France are different from those in Spain. (Or at least they were when I was a lolkittenburglar.) This creates a delay at the border.
The company makes vinegars. Mostly wine vinegars. And the wine for the wine vinegars comes from France. And on the wine vinegar bottles it says Product of France. But this is their sherry vinegar. And the sherry comes from Spain. But the vinegar is made in France.
Fail photo for not showing the full text of the label, which says Sherry Vinegar.
So I’m still nuclear on the concept, it looks like (and I can’t believe there’s already another geological lol) – is it Frain or Spance that made this? And isn’t Spain part of Mexico, which is why they speak Mexican? I mean, it’s not that I’m ignorant, exactly, but I just don’t seem to know stuff.
Yeah – I thought I’d gone far enough over the line to where anyone would get it, but apparently I still missed the mark. I am unwilling to go any farther.
Maitre Jacques is a French company. All their neck labels state “product of france”. Some of the products, though, are made in spain, such as this one. Check their website. This is on purpose, not a fail.
That’s another victory for the Spanish Empire. Almost comparable with St. Quentin or Bailén.
The letters that say Spain are bigger than those which say France!!
You see, if you stop in both French and Spanish ports on your way from California to … California, then the wine is legally a product of both Spain and France. No kidding. Same goes for Italian olive oil. Foods can have dual (or triple) citizenship just by stopping by.
European UnionWe’re all the same. Shame on us.
Spain is on you? Wouldn’t that hurt?
Maybe the cap was made in Spain? haha

Maybe the guy from the last fail was also half Spanish.
everybodies got this wrong, this is a sign of how good it is. The sherry is so strong, the bottle forgot where it came from!
The sherry has good bodie you say?
Came from that little country up in the mountains… no one remembers the name unless a trivia game is going on.
You mean Andorra? It’s a small country with joint rule by France and Spain. Maybe both sides wanted to take credit.
Actually, it is a sovereign country.
Those sovereign countries are a dime a dozen.
In sovereign Russia, the dime gets off you!
maybe the vine grew on the border so they got all confused and just put both
They should have fortified the border, it would have saved all this confusion.
They fortified the wine. Much better investment.

Wrong its like country and state. You know Spain, France. Like Amsterdam, Germany.???? I’m lost what was i saying?
Beats me. Had a bit too much to drink, eh?
i didnt mean for the vinegar part to be cut off. i was having trouble getting both the label and the cap in the pic. (my phone sucks) but it never clarifies why it says 2 countries on it
Label from spain, cap from France, The Sherry was made in Germany though

I am glad you ironed that out.

Ok guys, I’ll help you, I’m Spaniard and this wine is NOT from Spain. Such a fail like that could be only done by French LOL
btw, a bit of my country:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spain
Spain is a COUNTRY!?!?! Since when???
Well, you see, fluffy, when a mommy country and a daddy country love each other very much, they…
Since it gained independence from the Guinean empire about three weeks ago. The Guinean emperor, Barack Brown, graciously allowed them autonomy.
It seceded from Liechtenstein after World War 1. READ YOUR HISTORY!
So there you have it Fluffy. I hope that lolcatburglar, General BondFan4518 and I have cleared that up for you.
And yes, it WILL be on the exam.
Question 1: Spell ‘it’
Question 2: Fill in the missing word: “So be __”
Question 3: Safety
Question 4: Prof-it.
I don’t get it.

♫I poured sherry down your underpants♫
The bottle is made in France and the wine is made in Spain.
The paper for the label was made in Canada, and the ink was made in Germany.
Just split the difference and call it a Product of Andorra!

It’s probably directly from the border. Exactly on the line of France to Spain.
No wonder it's got a personality disorder.…or maybe this is a French make selling a Spanish sherry.
The only problem is french people look down on Spanish ones like “poor neightbours”. Like if we were Portuguese!
Faemino&Cansado dixit.
Fijo que el “Casón Histórico” del Mercadona le da mil patadas a ese vino.
I say “potato,” you say “patada.”

Failing on purpose is still failing, if not more so.
And thus, the French surrender again. Well done.
Did you mean: French military victories
Napoleon Dynamite!ya lol
The only place with more defeats than france is texas
Maybe it’s in both!!!

The wine, of course, is Spanish, from the province of Cádiz. It is then fortified with French brandy.
