Paranormal is a packaging design for a family of wines presented in Bordeaux and Burgundy bottles. The graphic theme is based on strange and unexplained phenomena, treated with mystery and irony. Detailed digital engravings recall old books of alchemy and ancient codices. The typefaces are drawn with an aged and imprecise look, similar to manual printing. Each label is made of cotton paper with high relief, stamping and varnish strokes. The design is intended to last and to allow new stories for every vintage or grape variety.
