[W]ith Halloween just around the corner, we here at the Grain Creative saw this as the perfect excuse to get our clients together for a drink, some nibbles, and a boogie to 'The Monster Mash'. We decided that bottles of red wine, labeled with details of the Halloween party would be the perfect 'invitation' as a teaser of what was to come on the night.

Being a small agency, we decided to personalise the invitation by taking photographs of each of the 'creative creatures' and rendering these to create five separate invitation designs. From the screaming zombie to the mermaid with the vindictive smile, Grain Creative wanted to ensure the invitations had a humorous aspect to them, drawing influence from 50's horror films and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Love & Valour

Love-Valour

[M]ore great work for Logan Wines by War Design of Australia. “Logan Wines recently approached us about developing a label for a new, limited release wine they were creating for a wine club. We drew on the winemakers family history to give us inspiration. The Logan family crest seemed like fertile territory. It shows passion nails piecing a human heart with the motto ‘Hoc majoram virtus: This is the valour of my ancestors. And so, Love & Valour was born.”

Alfaro

[I]n occasion of “La Rioja Tierra Abierta – La Fiesta Barroca 2011?, cultural event which focuses on the historical and artistic heritage of La Rioja, the winery Palacios Remondo presents two commemorative wines. The design created is a tribute to Alfaro, the town where the winery is located and its Baroque history.

A tribute to the land and its symbols through a collection of 6 labels for each wine, that focuses in the name of the city illustrated with baroque ornamentation inspired in the altar of the “Virgen del Rosario” from the “Colegiata de San Miguel”, which is the symbol of the Riojan Baroque and the center of the event activities.

Francis Coppola Reserve

[I]n keeping with the Coppola promise to make every visit to the winery memorable and unique, Francis Coppola created the Francis Coppola Reserve label—limited production wines that showcase distinctive vineyards from Sonoma’s renowned appellations. Director of Winemaking, Corey Beck, hand-selects exceptional lots of fruit from these prestigious vineyards for crafting small-batch wines exclusively for winery guests, wine club members and those who shop with us online. Each lot is crushed, fermented, and aged separately through the final blending stage to ensure the finished wine is worthy of the ‘Reserve’ title.

The artwork of film production designer Dean Tavoularis graces the labels of our FC Reserve wines. Tavoulraris met Francis Coppola during the making of The Godfather and the two artists have continued to collaborate over the years on a variety of creative projects, including more than a dozen films, the courtyard and fountain of Rubicon Estate in Napa Valley and the interiors and exteriors of the Francis Ford Coppola Winery in Sonoma.

The Lake House

[T]he Lake House Denmark is located in Denmark, Western Australia.

Known as ‘one of the most picturesque cellar doors in Western Australia’, the winery sits beside a large, trout filled lake and has become a popular tourist destination. Developed over the last seven years, The Lake House Denmark has three ranges of wine, each positioned in a different price category. The labels work on their own and also visually relate to each other to create a unique brand story.

The signature, mid-range Postcard Series features a whimsical, nostalgic "1930’s feel" illustration of a couple rowing on the lake, capturing their holiday romance.

The popular “He Said She Said” label is the fun and quirky entry level wine for The Lake House Denmark. The ‘couple in the boat’ are the characters from the mid-range Postcard Series, featured much more prominently, with a humorous take on relationship miscommunications between men and women.

The premium range of The Lake House Denmark features blue and silver foils and swashes that are representative of the lake, to create an elegant, high-end label that’s a touch more serious. The red and white striped neck cuff is a visual link to the gentleman’s boating jacket from the Postcard Series.
