Wine Labels - From Grape to Glass
THE VINTNER’S JOURNEY FROM GRAPE TO GLASS
IMAGERY PINOT NOIR, 2019
This jammy Sonoma pinot has notes of strawberry, cherry, and boysenberry enriched by a blend of 5% Petit Verdot. The packaging features a bold cutout design that fully integrates the label with the bottle. The brand shares that the iconic drip design is meant to invoke dripping wine and paint, an allusion to the artistry found in each bottle.
ORIN SWIFT SLANDER PINOT NOIR, 2020
The simplistic label on this bottling from Orin Swift lets the bottle speak for itself. A simple brown paper with typewritten text brings a gruff and punchy look that pairs well with fickle nature of the grapes. The 2020 expression has notes of candied cherry, strawberry, crushed gravel, wet brick, and white pepper.
PRECISION WINE CO. PROTOTYPE PINOT NOIR
Created by California wine country rising star, Trevor Sheehan, Prototype Pinot Noir is a big and bold expression with strong notes of dark berries, licorice, and cherry. The bottle design uses a clean and modern font with a relief stripe hinting at pavement to pair with the image of a 1930s-esque pre-space age vehicle. This mixing of eras is a fantastic tribute to the modern take on a classic varietal found inside the bottle.
