What's the best material for wine labels that will be chilled or placed in ice buckets?

For wine labels that will be chilled, condensate, or sit in an ice bucket, choose a synthetic waterproof stock. These materials shrug off moisture, while uncoated paper tends to wrinkle, bubble, or peel when it stays wet for long.

• BOPP (biaxially oriented polypropylene): fully waterproof and durable, ideal for submersion and heavy condensation
• Vinyl: flexible, water-resistant, and conforms well to curved bottles
• Coated paper: works for light moisture only when sealed with a waterproof laminate, but is more prone to peeling in prolonged wet conditions
