Embellishing high-end wine with pewter labels

(NBBJ) - One of the ways that some vintners are looking to distinguish the look of their high-end wines is novel bottle embellishments.
“I say you can do a custom emboss in glass, and then you will need to pay for a custom mold,” said Erica Harrop of Global Package in Napa. “If you only have 500 cases, you may not be able to invest in a custom mold. There are ways to have an emboss on glass, and one way is a metallic label.”
She’s been working with local label designers and pewter label manufacturer Etiq’Etains of France. Gracing spirits bottles for years, these labels can have a gold or bronze finish and be applied as pressure-sensitive, or sticker-type, labels.
