Copywriting for a Wine Label
The wine label is the key platform where producers sell their wine to consumers. Effective copywriting is crucial as the label cements the brand identity and brand values. The label informs individuals of the alcohol by volume, the tasting notes, pairings with food and the region or vineyard as an example. This category celebrates a wine label that effectively helps consumers make a discerning choice between brands.

Wine brands now showcase many alternative packaging designs ranging from wine boxes, pouches, cartons and cans. This category recognises the best design that successfully communicates a brand’s identity through alternative and non traditional packaging.
