A labeling machine for applying labels successively to the tap of each one of a succession of traveling containers includes a conveyor for transporting a succession of upright containers such as wine bottles. A labeling turret having a plurality of label applying heads is rotatable around a central axis. The label applying heads are manipulated by a cam follower traveling on a cam surface and are positioned adjacent to the conveyor so that the label applying heads each successively engage one container upon each cycle of the turret. Each label applying head travels during each cycle to a label staging location where a label is picked up by the head, and subsequently to a position adjacent to the conveyor where the head captures the top of a container. The cam and cam follower are arranged to cause the head to dwell in a vertically aligned position over the container, and an actuator associated with the head advances the label, applying it to the top of the container. In a preferred embodiment the head includes a centering bell which extends downwardly to engage the container during application of the label.
