Golden A' Design Award Winner 2022
Five wine bottles occupy a horizontal composition against a textured grey backdrop suggesting weathered stone or aged plaster, the format is square and the mood evokes rustic sophistication in a cellar-like setting, beginning at the back left, a tall burgundy-colored bottle stands with a cream label featuring sweeping black brushstrokes like wind-bent grass and a large red numeral two, its neck crowned with a rounded red wax seal, moving right, a pale green glass bottle rises slightly forward bearing similar gestural marks and the numeral one, continuing right, another deep burgundy bottle displays the numeral four with the same organic calligraphic treatment, all three back bottles stand upright on weathered wooden planks displaying rich brown tones with visible grain running horizontally, in the foreground at left, a burgundy bottle lies on its side showing the numeral three on its label, the reclined position creating diagonal movement, at front right, a standing bottle marked with numeral five completes the arrangement, fresh green vine leaves with serrated edges nestle against the right edge bringing cool verdant accent, the lighting enters warm and directional from upper left creating gentle highlights along the curved glass shoulders that feel like sunlight through a window while shadows pool softly beneath and behind each bottle grounding them to the wooden surface, the overall color temperature balances warm ambers of wood and burgundy glass against cool grey background and green accents, textures range from the smooth cool glass to rough weathered wood planks to soft matte paper labels to irregular waxy capsule surfaces, the atmosphere suggests quiet anticipation like entering a carefully curated tasting room
MontGras Handcrafted is an enology based project that pursues the production of distinctive wines made out of rare grape varieties harvested in 2020. Each wine is the product of a unique combination of the particular weather and land conditions of five Chilean valleys and of five different wine makers. This packaging is a creative way of following the particular personality of each wine while expressing the common ideas behind the project.
