Allmusic.com gave Bottle of Wine a 3 star review:
By the late 1960s, the Fireballs were trying to update their sound into the AM radio mainstream, as evidenced by the presence of beefy horns and full Grass Roots-type production on several tracks. Despite the presence of the hit “Bottle of Wine,” it wasn’t convincing, largely because the material was so run-of-the-mill.
