John -

You can also apply a label to an individual point, instead of the whole
series. Select the point (requires two single clicks), then use my
favorite shortcut, Ctrl+1 (numeral one) to open the Format dialog. On
the Data Labels tab, add the style of label you want for this point,
presumably Value.

If you already have the labels, you can selectively delete one. Select
the individual label (two single clicks, like selecting the single point
above), and press Delete.
