From origin to Identity – Costa Boal Family Estates

The creative concept begins at Quinta de Arufe, in Favaios, the place where this wine is born. Rather than using a generic representation of the Douro, we brought the estate itself to the label, transforming its landscape, architecture and entrance into the visual signature of the wine.

The illustration creates an immediate sense of place and provenance, while the reference to 550 metres of altitude subtly reveals one of the defining characteristics behind the wine’s freshness and personality.

A restrained colour palette, generous use of white space and carefully considered typography allow the illustration to become the focal point, balancing tradition with a contemporary premium expression.
Embossed details and the tactile character of the paper add another layer to the experience, inviting the consumer not only to see the label, but to discover it through touch.

A design where landscape becomes identity and origin becomes distinction.
