Simple, attractive composition. The reflections in the bottle are nice. The glare on the table is a bit distracting; a polarizer might have helped.

Hey, man, that's almost a full bottle. I've you'd like to get rid of it, just send it to me :)
Or invite me over, we can kill it while we plot World Domination or Blue Ribbons (whichever is easier)
Light a bit harsh and hard reflections on the bottle and glass. Did you try backlighting? Glassware is difficult to work with. Esp if, like us, you don't have a proper studio with proper lights.

I think this would work better if you had shown all of the bottle.

Send it to me then...it`s my favourite !!
I think the composition would work better for me if you had framed either the whole bottle or preferably, got closer and framed from the label down but otherwise nicely done with good lighting and crisp resolution.

Nice and clean I suppose, although including the whole bottle would be better I think
