Unlike many other products that are instantly reached for based on brand recognition — such as Coca-Cola — most people don’t take enough of an interest in wine to have a particular brand they go back to time after time. That’s why wine label design is one of the most important marketing tools wine manufacturers have available to them. From the classic, elegant designs to those that bring some humor to a sometimes snooty industry, wine labels are there to catch our attention.

With so many types of wines from so many regions, there’s a huge amount of market competition. Wine makers are turning to label design to help them step up their sales more than ever before. Check out some of the most recent examples in innovative wine label design.

Conclusion

Wine labels convey many things: flavor, variety, even the situation that a particular bottle is suited for. Most importantly they convey a mood designed to grab the target market of the wine maker, whether we’re talking about younger party-goers who like funky labels or wine conneisuers who prefer a traditional label.

some of them are not so nice IMO…but I must admit I’m quite sensitive for this topic as I come from north-west Italy. Good idea for inspiration anyway!

Some of these are good and some are awful… I think you should re-consider what you consider “Elegant”

Another set of wine labels you might like is at http://saranelsondesign.com/WineLabels. There are about thirty designs shown over a couple of pages. Several new ones from a wineries in Ohio and Oregon are interesting; most of the collection is from Washington state’s wine country (second largest, behind California, with over 700 wineries now).
