The art of
packaging design
continues to inspire us. The latest interesting example to land on our
desks is this classic take on packaging label design by Californian
boutique winery,
Buccella. Taking
the age-old wax seal as its inspiration, the bottle's simple label
makes a bold statement about the brand - that it is formidable,
timeless and not easily forgotten. And according to reviews by major
wine critics - so is the product. Earlier this year, The San Francisco
Chronicle named Buccella a "cult" brand and one of the top 10 new
wineries to watch. Great packaging design and a great wine to match...a
coupling made in hedonist's heaven. Pass the glasses please.
