Wine labels can raise the ‘mouth value’ of any vintage

Making wine labels that really draw your audience to your brand may seem like a somewhat elusive and difficult goal, but it is essential for long-term success. However, standout visuals are not the only reason to take time on this important aspect of design and production. According to a recent story from NPR, the little touches you put on your labels can add to the wine’s sense of mystique, and, more specifically, to its perceived sense of worth and how much your consumer enjoys it.

The article explores the ways that the impression a shopper gets from looking at a wine label can be more influential than the price of the bottle, and other factors. It quotes marketing professor Aradhna Krishna on the “gut” effects that strong labels can have on a consumer.

“If the description on the back makes you imagine the wine’s fruity bouquet and the way it feels in your mouth, then the taste will be enhanced and consumption goes up,” she said.

In addition to defining the philosophy behind a brand and what the company hopes to convey, both the images and the physical material of the label have a job to do in convincing a consumer to choose them.

Whether it’s a luminescent color or a font that reminds the purchaser of a typewriter, specific touches like this can convey the sense of value that the producer wants and leave consumers feeling satisfied.
