The dew point is the temperature at which vapor in the air will condense and turn into liquid. The dew point is determined by the air temperature, pressure and relative humidity. Consequently, when vapor in the air comes into contact with the edge of the bottle (which, if the water is cold, is below dew point) it condenses and forms liquid on the outside of the bottle.

Why does filling a plastic bottle with cold water cause moisture on the outside of the bottle?
It's a process called condensation caused by humid air striking a much colder surface. Generally the colder air is the less moisture it can carry. So when the air around you meets the side of the bottle it begins to cool, and can't care as much moisture as it had been. The moisture it can't carry is deposited on the side of the bottle as condensation.
