Wine Label Graphic Design Studio

Label graphic design condenses a winery's values and its wine's characteristics into just a few centimeters, to make it recognizable on the shelf and guide the purchase decision.

The label is a powerful marketing tool, not just a decorative element.

Since 2010, Erbacipollina has designed labels for the wine industry, working alongside wineries to build a distinctive visual identity consistent with the product's positioning.

Our Food Sensitivity lets us design labels that truly speak to the consumer, because we live inside the industry and know its language.

Wine Label Graphic Design and Visual Marketing Services

Label design begins well before the graphic work. We study the winery's positioning, the wine, the target market, and the people it speaks to.

Only then does the design take shape, turning strategy into a label able to express the producer's identity, set the product apart from competitors, and make the brand recognizable.

(Scope)

Wine Label Design and Terroir Study

Graphic design translates the winery's identity into a visual language able to convey its personality, terroir, and positioning.

It works in close synergy with wine copywriting, so images and words express the wine's character and characteristics without resorting to clichés.

Every choice related to graphic layout, typefaces, and visual balance builds a unique and distinctive tone of voice, for a single bottle or an entire wine line.

(Materials)

Material Selection and Wine Label Design

We select papers, finishes, and formats based on the wine's positioning and the winery's identity.

Every choice helps strengthen the perception of the product and make it recognizable through touch as well.

Special papers, embossing, hot foil stamping, screen-printed relief, and die-cutting are all designed to enhance the label, ensure print quality, and keep the aesthetic result unchanged during distribution, storage, and service.

(Why us)

Why rely on a studio specialized in wine graphic design?

Because designing a wine label requires specific expertise on the industry, regulations, and sales contexts. An effective design has to be legally correct, consistent with the marketing strategy, and print-ready.

Since 2010 we at Erbacipollina have worked exclusively with Food & Beverage companies. Our experience lets us understand wine, recognizing its identity and its potential.

Food Sensitivity lets us translate the essence of the product into a distinctive visual code. With a handful of graphic elements and a few words, we tell the story of the terroir, the sensory characteristics, and the people who work the vineyard, creating a label that communicates directly and authentically.

A wine label design project with Erbacipollina leaves you with concrete assets:

  • The label's graphic design, for a single item or the entire line.
  • A consistent visual system across the winery's labels.
  • The choice of papers, finishes, and print formats.
  • Print-ready production files for the printer.
  • The mandatory legal wording, verified on the label.

Our label design is part of our broader wine communication and marketing service.
