Caveat: Not only is the label not required in the US, there is an enforcement problem in Europe. There doesn't appear to be any consequences if the label is wrong.
And the range G thru A has proven to be far too restricted

There are already a lot of A (RR) and A (wet braking) rated tyres, and a few A-A ratings, so there's no "better" tyre anymore in the EU labeling ...
