labels
This is about a new magazine series on wine. Each issue will include "dieci etichette in riproduzione unica da raccogliere all'interno di un album di pregio"
I know these are wine labels but I can't figure out the exact meaning of "in riproduzione unica". One-time authorized copy, single-copy, limited edition? But if limited/one time/single edition then how would they be on wine bottles sold in stores?
Am I reading too much into it? Could it simply mean ten individual labels or ten different labels?
Thanks in advance for any help or reference material you may provide.

Another option.
Here "unica" means remarkable, extraordinary.
These labels are not on wine bottles. The magazine will include reproductions of 10 labels to collect, like stickers in an album, which are print specifically for/by this magazine. They could be labels of vintage/old wines (e.g. Barolo, Riserva 1950, or Bas Armagnac, 1933), or special edition wines with label designed by a famous designer or artist (Milo Manara's label of "Amarone di Valpolicella" is a very well known one), and so on.
They are not a limited edition because the magazine could issue millions of them but, for a reason or another, they are "unique" copies.
I think you could also say "Collector's edition labels", though.

: Limited edition doesn't necessarily mean small quantities. They sell "limited edition" Snickers bars by the million. But wine labels aren't unique if they're produced in large quantities.
