Annual sales of wines with animal labels or names reached more than $600 million last year, ACNielsen said, while overall sales were nearly $4.07 billion. ACNielsen records its sales data from supermarket point-of-sale purchases.

Critters help labels stand out on crowded wine shelves. A curly-tailed monkey swings across the label of Monkey Bay, a New Zealand brand. A loon paddles on the red-and-gold label of California's Smoking Loon.

A kangaroo - actually, a yellow-footed rock wallaby - helped get the trend going. Introduced five years ago, Australia's Yellow Tail was "a spectacular success," said Danny Brager, vice president of ACNielsen's alcohol beverage team.

ACNielsen reports that of the 438 new table wine brands with sustained consumer sales introduced in the past three years, 77 (18 percent) featured a "critter" on the label. Combined with existing critter labels, sales of critter-branded wine have reached more than $600 million.
