Ageing Wine Bottle
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Packaging Design / Consumer Packaging Design / 2017
To a wine conaisseur there's nothing more precious than a beautifully matured, vintage wine. Therefore we decided to make the process of maturing inside the bottle visible from the outside. Each bottle of the “CUVéE XR” is given a copper jacket whose appearance changes with age, becoming darker and even corroding, depending on its storage. So time becomes visible, transforming the bottle into a design object: True greatness comes with age.
