The label
Chateau La Barre was an estate red wine produced by the Picard family at their vineyards, Château Picard, in La Barre, France. (PIC: "Remembrance") It was trademarked and bottled at a castle. One particularly noteworthy vintage year of this wine was 2294.
When Jean-Luc Picard returned to Earth to meet his family in 2367, he sampled a glass of Chateau La Barre 2347 and mistook it for a 2346 vintage. Robert Picard gave Jean-Luc a bottle of the '47 when the latter returned to the USS Enterprise-D. (TNG: "Family")
Later that year, Picard kept the bottle on a shelf in his quarters. (TNG: "Legacy")
Jean-Luc used this bottle to offer a toast to Chancellor Durken after initiating first contact with the Malcorians in 2367. (TNG: "First Contact")
