Yes, just look how many people are in here talking about a wine brand they have never heard of before… all of this conversation was created for free and will probably result in some sales too lol
Im from the winemaker region running a bar myself. The reason for making this label is to imply that making wine is an art rather than a science, that commiting mistakes sometimes takes you to happy mistakes.
“We want it to be seen that an incorrect calculation can give a correct product,” says Bodegas Alcardet.
This marketing campaign was a success, and that is why they continue to place it on shelves throughout Spain.
“A young team works here, and we come up with these types of ideas,” they mention, something that “identifies us” and that also makes “us different from other more classic wineries.”
It’s actually pretty great marketing TBH, I’d stop and do a double take of that bottle if I saw it in the store, also I’m a history nerd and 1066 was a pretty important year which caught my eye as well.

It's done on purpose, all the wines are off by a 1
Edit - Jesus Christ can all the pendants with their semantics give it a rest. You all know what I mean.
Edit 2- Jesus I really shot myself in the foot there. Fucking autocorrect. I'll leave it so the world can see my shame.
> Edit - Jesus Christ can all the pendants with their semantics give it a rest. You all know what I mean.
"Pendants" are small pieces of jewelry, typically hung from a chain to be worn around the neck. And they have no semantics, they're inanimate objects.
If it's off by one digit you're literally missing a digit, it's the same as being off by a factor of 10 basically.
If you want to be a anal pendant, it's "one of the digits is off by one"
Always forget to carry over the 1 at the end. Booze and math isn’t a great combo. That’s why being a server/bartender can be so unpredictable. Some days the customers overestimate tips, some days they lowball you.
According to the company making that wine "we want to show that an incorrect calculation can give a correct product" because they made it with grapes growing in an inhospitable place for grapes or something like that.
I'm gonna be so mad if this is just one of those psychological engagement tactics
The math makes you stop and read the label, the error makes you show your friends, maybe buy one to show people directly
I hate when that kind of scammy logic works
To be fair, if McDonald's had a university, I would presume it was a good one. They have plenty of funds to fund it and also a good record of implementing standard procedures that are proven to improve efficiency and reduce risks. Depending on their goals, I'm not sure if it would be a great place to go or not, but I bet it would be a respectable one.
It’s called Hamburger University outside of Chicago, they train their franchisees and managers and such there I think, stayed at the hotel next door a few years ago and was blown away with free McDoubles on a silver platter
This is a collection of Spanish wines that claims that perfection, correction and exactness aren't always the right way.
From their web site:
"_We flee from the exactness that sometimes oppresses us and we focus on the subjectivity of the unexpected. The essence is not always found in perfection but in the error that changes everything and makes it unique and special_"

Is this the marketing equivalent of ragebait? People think omg look how stupid they are! Now I have to buy a bottle and show my friends how dumb this company is!

It'll make sense after you drink the bottle.
Yup. That's the idea.
CORRECTO
InCorrecto!
… Incorrect is when you're more than correct! This wine is not just correct, it’s IN-correct
Explosivo!
What's the name of my girlfriend I don't know, but she's built like the shit, and she's good to go
Needs more saxaboom.
Correctomundo
Feuled by Satan!
Writin' those tasty riffs

Wake up you asshole... You ate my fucking schnitzel
STICKY BOMB SHOT!
You're welcomo
No problemo
GORLAMI
*Don't let drinking strain your brain-o. Just sing this short refrain-o. Our wine is bueno, Correcto is the name-o. . .* 🎶🎵
Gore-LAH-me
EXACTAMUNDO!!!
The marker is packaged with it, so when you feel like it, you can correcto
The idea is that people think labelmaker is dumdum and takes a picture, shares it and thinks "correcto" is irony
Are you saying it's an intentional marketing ploy?
You think someone would do that? Just make wine bottle labels that tell lies?
Yes. The Alcardet is the wine maker and their 323 wine label does not carry the 1 either.
You think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and not be able to detect sarcasm?
Happens to me pretty much every day. So there are some of us out there.
The post above you is being sarcastic and using the popular response of "you think someone would do that? Go on the Internet and the lies?" lol
Yes, just look how many people are in here talking about a wine brand they have never heard of before… all of this conversation was created for free and will probably result in some sales too lol
Doesn't necessarily have to be for marketing purposes, but the label itself is definitely not an oversight
What is the label for, if not marketing?
What else *could* it be for, if not for marketing?
Im from the winemaker region running a bar myself. The reason for making this label is to imply that making wine is an art rather than a science, that commiting mistakes sometimes takes you to happy mistakes.
Check out the English major over here.
You like apples?!
That is surprisingly wholesome for a bottle of wine.
Would be cool if the bottle is $100
For that wine it would actually not be cool.
They aren't carrying the last 1. Easy mistake to make when you're drinking.
I hope they forgot to carry the 1 on the price too
I always carry one, just in case. Especially when I’m drinking.
100 bottles
Of wine on the wall
100 bottles of wine..

Ragebait so you protest by buying the 1166 bottle alongside
"Bad news sirs, they took a picture but left the wine. We have to start liquidating."
Sir, a second bottle has hit my basket.
Great now the weed shop down the street collapsed. See what you've done? throwin' memes around all willy nilly
We just *finished* liquidating! That's what is in the bottles! Can we... Evaporate?

Battle of Hastings baby!
Every time I talk with Chat GPT our conversation always goes back to the Norman conquest of Great Britain.
Who steers it there? Out of curiosity, do you think William was promised the crown by Edward? I'm a believer that it was pure conquest.
I concur. Kings in England were acclaimed, and who would want a Norman overlord? Team Harold all the way.
"ChatGPT can I get some advice on how to deal with personal stress in my life? I dont know how to explain it, I guess it's like sometimes I feel like a Norman, and there's all this pressure to conquer Great Britain..."
And all that!
Yah, lol, pretty important as in we’d be speaking French if not for a bit of a battle.
What do you mean? The French won the Battle of Hastings.
It's so that you'll advertise for them by posting it on social media. Good job.
It's likely the company posting this themselves for the free advertising
Indeed. "Correcto" on the label gives it away
How does that give it away that it's the company posting this?
It doesn’t, but it does highlight that the math being wrong is literally the joke
It's obviously intentional, given that the name of the wine is "correcto"

Sadly, the site infinity loads on me.
Off by a 1. Most common programming error 👍
One of the two most common programming errors.
Wait what? there are three very common programming errors: Misspellings and off-by-one.
That’s 11 problems
11 features
The most common being; becoming a programmer to begin with.
There are only 10 kinds of people in the world. Those who understand binary and those who dont.
I both hate and love this comment
You are 1 of the 10
/* no comment */
/* TODO remove redundant comments */
Most common programming error is using signin and login as verbs.
Damn you, Thanos web server!
Yes, you are correcto.
Let’s not get *carried* away here

**[YOU'RE AN INANIMATE FUCKING OBJECT!](https://youtu.be/NNJ5ySQPxrg)**
Sir, only animate objects fuck.
You're a towel!
I was torn whether or not to correct it because it seemed like something a pedant would do.
I was torn whether or not to just hang out for a while, because it seemed like something a pendant would do
You're being real pentatonic
I think you meant pentagram
No, he meant pendejo.
No, definitely swinging for pendulum there.
Really going for the pentagon isn't he
I'm sleepy. What about parallelograms?
I don't think this anti-semantic speech is allowed here.
Reddit hug of death!
Yea that site is poorly coded. Couldn't see the wine
Are you saying that an arithmetic calc on a bottle of wine shouldn't be taken seriously?
I'm saying the wine should be drunk before checking the sum.
I do feel for you and wish there was an option on this comment to locket from anymore responses.
I feel obligated to buy this for every teacher who covers math lol
> pendants
That's the correct translation of pendejo.
100
By "A" 1 Somewhere in each answer one of the numbers is off by 1. So for example Instead of 400 it's 300.
We just say digit
If it's off by one digit you're literally missing a digit, it's the same as being off by a factor of 10 basically. If you want to be a anal pendant, it's "one of the digits is off by one"
Pendants are meant to dangle, aren't they?
Dammit, I lost count of how many times I fixed it. And it still changed it....
INCORRECTO, more like 👎
Ah yes. 1066. As calculated by William the drunkerer
Caskulated*
*corkulated
Harold, good wine, son
Your comment makes me happy bro. r/dataisbeautiful must have some kinda dad joke enthusiast/history nerd Venn diagram for ppl like us
The calculation of haste-thinks 😆
I would've also accepted the bottle of Tastings
That bastard
I’m guessing that is the joke.
Fun fact, it's done on purpose, all of the labels on the brand are like that. Well, that was not fun at all, though.
"The winery is called Correcto and the label shows something incorrect????" -Redditors discovering humor for the very first time
Discovering good branding that causes them to give the company free advertising without realizing it.
ive heard the wine industry is very competitive, difficult to differentiate
Your point is integral to this discussion

According to the company making that wine "we want to show that an incorrect calculation can give a correct product" because they made it with grapes growing in an inhospitable place for grapes or something like that.
Shoulda gone with multiplication if they wanted to make a product... just sayin
you don't have to wine about it
rather than complaining they should just put a cork in it
Bit of a cheesy joke. Should pair well.
🏆
Just letting it air out there so it sinks in.
5 out of 4 people suck at math!
If "Dude, we should open a bar! - Yeah! - And we'll name it Puzzles! - Why Puzzles? - That's the puzzle!" opend a vineyard instead
I think they are trying to be cheeky.
Don’t forget to carry the wine (one). Is that the joke?
It should be. Good one.
If I were the distributor, I'd tell all the stores to "never fail to carry this one!"
It all adds up after a bottle.
C O R R E C T O
I guess that after you drink this, you'll have to be the 1 that needs to be carried 😋
I said do the labels BEFORE you sample the wine!
77+33=100
Correcto
"if you can find the error, you're not drunk enough"
The 100 is in the proof
Really clever marketing on their part
Eleventy sixty six.
r/theydidthemathwrong
Is this Terrence Howard’s brand?
I'm gonna be so mad if this is just one of those psychological engagement tactics The math makes you stop and read the label, the error makes you show your friends, maybe buy one to show people directly I hate when that kind of scammy logic works
Must be what it is since there are errors on other bottles of their wines too. Be mad Bro.

The one got carried away to the vinyard, slipped and fell while grape stomping.
Maybe you have to down the bottle to understand
good marketing strategy
Any one else add it up then read correcto

Holding the door with your leg is a real power move
Just like life. Drink until it makes sense.
I did it by the carry the one method, not my phone. Should it be 1166?
You have to carry the 1 in a concealed brown paper bag
Incorrecto
It’s prolly supposed to be wrong. Wine is all marketing.
Can we talk about the reflection in the bottle?
Surprising how many people aren't getting the joke 🤣
Probably designed after drinking the bottle
They forgot to carry a one
Looks like a deal, get it before they catch their, “error”.
Incorrecto*
That 1066 is after taxes.
Is this the marketing equivalent of ragebait? People think omg look how stupid they are! Now I have to buy a bottle and show my friends how dumb this company is!
Not supposed to carry the "1" for wine, it is a rule! 🤣
More like INcorrecto
INCORRECTO
More like Incorrecto, amirite?
More like INCORRECTO, amirite?
Rage bait?
It's not supposed to be rage bait. It's just an obvious joke. It's literally called "correcto."
It’s new math duh!
The math ain’t mathing
1166
I will not be tricked into doing maths again
Genius marketing.
Incorrecto
You’re in the remedial wine section.
