I think it looks elegant. The Rousse Reserve logo looks wonderful, and I love the use of the red stamp.

Very nice classic label. But not distinct. But if I was a wine producer I would like it a lot. Wine labels should be classic to come extent not to confuse consumers.

Come with constructive criticism. Otherwise he’s better left without comments...

You’re right Zuz3l but i don’t know much to say is just what i feel. I don’t think there is a good connection of the logo with the rest. or maybe is the alignment.

What does “produced by original technology” mean?

I have worked in the creative department for a grocery-store chain for nearly two years. During this time, I have viewed hundreds of different wine labels.
I think this label is elegant and distinctive.

It’s beautiful!! I especially love the initial R. Well done.

eliason - I am not quite sure, but as far as i know those wines have really special technology that is kept the same for decades....
10x everyone - no mater you like it or not:-))))

The text rag is a little extreme for me. Otherwise nice!

I think the text rag gives the label an interesting personality. I love the craftsmanship on everything. It seems to me like a high class scotch label more than a wine label for some reason. Probably because it is not attached to a bottle of wine.

I like it too ! Specially the Rousse Reserve lettering. Lovely red. Gives a impression as if it was printed letterpress.

I’ll post product photographs as soon as possible.
The label looks quite different on bittle...

It looks really nice. Like AGL says, it almost looks letterpressed.

I’m sure I’ll be embarrassed, but what is the serif typeface? *flinching*
I am not the target audience, but I think it is a distinct label.

well I dont’t remember exactly the name - some sort of Barroque Antiqua, digitally processed to look like LETTERPRESSED:-))) Sth. like Bodoni style.... don’t remember for certain...

It has some nice features. Like the hand-lettering touch and the beautiful letterpress printing.
Personally, I don’t like the use of all caps for the body (bottle) copy. Plus the over tracked letters and line spacing cause readability issues. My eyes started getting buggy.
