What happens when placeholder text doesn’t get rep...
I'm not convinced that last example wasn't a winemaker looking for some fancy-looking latin to make his wine label look classier.

Nope. I took that photo and tweeted it. I subsequently phoned the vineyard. They had no idea about the mistake.

I was thinking the same. It would even be better if the winemaker was aware of the origins of the text and added it as a typographer in-joke.
