Appius

Twelve vintages,
one goal:
excellence.

challenge

When a wine is created to become Italy’s finest white, the label can never be a detail. It had to embody the excellence of St. Michael-Eppan through a contemporary visual language and reinvent itself every year without ever losing its identity – just like the wine inside.

solution

We looked for perfection where few do: in the golden ratio, in hypertones, in the mathematical structures of absolute harmony. Each vintage became a unique work, each label a distinct yet unmistakable code, designed to age beautifully – just like the wine inside.
