Wine n' Dine

I'd have to say that the wine aisle in the grocery may just be my favorite. Not because I'm a raging wine guzzler but because I absolutely LOVE looking at the creative array of labels. Sometimes when I really can't decide between two similar wines, I'll typically go with the more interesting or design savvy label. Seriously, people, it pays to brand WELL. That being said, here are some of my favorite creative labels.

Shefa Profusion Wine
"Shefa" translates to "Profusion" in Hebrew and the designer has really played up the Middle Eastern feel in a fantastic modern way.

Churchill's Wines: I love the aerial images of the vineyards. It's a great mixture of a very graphic design with a strong personal connection to the land.

Four Sisters: I've been a big fan of this winery's label design for a long time. The curvature of the silhouettes is so elegant and well executed.

Monte Oton: I love the playful geometry and typography of this label.

Nabuko: Not only are the colors great but the rough abstracted drawing of the grapes is what really gets me. The clean type is always a plus.

Orin Swift "Papillon": Match made in heaven...for me at least. B/W photography, hands, high contrast??? Sign me up! This one literally jumped off the shelf at me.

Educated Guess: Clever. It seems like the art of winemaking could be just about as complicated as their
label design.

Root:1: Simple, nice integration of type and graphic. The root design really helps to visually elongate the
bottle itself.
