So many things appealed to me about this package design. The bold label is obvious but there are other more subtle aspects of the design and strategy I found to be compelling. The bottle for one thing. Even for Riesling, it seems exceptionally tall and slender. This perception is accentuated by the scale and low placement of the label. Then there's the seal. A wax capsule, cut at a sharp angle. Great attention to detail.
Popcorn Chardonnay is a clever creation. The minimal design works in some ways and could be improved in others. POPCORN set in a bold sans serif typeface is strong and clear. It pops against the stark white label that's tapered to mimic a traditional popcorn carton. The scalloped shape of the label top suggests popcorn but the structured alignment is such an oversimplification it loses the connection.
