Cut and pasted from the TG Daily sight. I didn't link it as it's mixed in a page with a bunch of other things.


--------------
eProvenance intelligent wine bottle: Well, it’s not really an intelligent wine bottle, it's more an intelligent case. eProvenance is offering RFID tags to wine makers, which the company says will authenticate and trace fine wine. A semi-active RFID tag placed inside the case to monitor and record temperatures and improve shipping and receiving operations throughout the distribution chain. A passive RFID tag with a unique code attached to the base of the bottle to automate tracking and inventory management, and discourage pilferage. A proprietary, tamper-proof neck seal with a covert code applied at the base of the capsule to authenticate the wine inside the bottle and thwart counterfeiters. The company said it is currently implementing the technology with nine leading Bordeaux Châteaux.

Looks to me like Orwell was only about 30 years early.
