Went down this morning to the hole I have been digging in for most of the summer and I pulled this flask. I was very surprised to see anything on it because I have been pulling dozens with just "Warranted Flask" on the bottles. I know its from 1880s-1890s because of the style but I cant seem to find another example of one with grapes. I also got JE Combault Caustic Balsam too which was pretty cool. Thanks for looking.

I'm 90% sure that it's a wine bottle but it would be very hard to figure out the brand...
 

Very nice rescue. No help on id'ing. let us know if you find it out.

That was my first thought but normally they put wine in wine bottles, I have dug enough of them. I mean the flask is small so there wouldn't be much room for liquid.

This bottle says wine on the bottom. It's 1 pint. I would say the grapes on yours definitely mean wine.
