What is this wine? Where is it from? Who makes it? Does it really matter in this case? This winemaker had the confidence in this concept and design to bury all of that information.
A unique solution using some of the most common elements of wine label design—the sun, mountains, and a patchwork of vineyards. What’s brilliant is that none of those elements are immediately obvious. Especially in the colours used.
