Daryl Woods is the Creative Director at Pitchcork Wine and Spirits Marketing. In addition to labels he creates new brands, advertising and promotional material for producers large and small from around the world.
Creating a wine label concept based on a theme is a solid approach. Such is the case with Demuerte Classic and it’s colourful Day of the Dead skull design.
“Saving the world from the tyranny of Chardonnay.” The challenge is defined. The gauntlet has been thrown down. What a great approach for creating a brand.
Is the eye-catching art on this label enough to pique your interest in this wine? It’s large, colourful and thought provoking. As with many fine art pieces it allows the viewer to create the story.
This vintage portrait of Laura Hartwig on the label of her namesake wine, immediately transports us back to a “kinder, softer” time. These quoted words are also used to describe this expression of Cabernet Sauvignon.
I’m not sure if the artwork is supposed to be a vine or a tree. It doesn’t really matter. The colourful circles, be they grapes or other fruit are expressively playful. They are like balloons on a string buoyed by the breeze.
