Inspired by the punk music scene, we designed the label to feel like an event poster pasted on the wall of a club, executed with strategic shadowing and embossing to give a realistic, wrinkled look. The label’s bright yellow hue, a non-traditional color for the wine space, screams for attention. The COUP wordmark has been slashed through – communicating the brand’s commitment to not play by the rules. This attitude was carried through to the four different neck labels, each with its own “canceled” word:
CONFIDENTIAL
INAPPROPRIATE
UNAUTHORIZED
ORDINARY
