Have you guys ever done that? I've wasted a lot of money and had some odd tasking drinks....but at least it looks nice, right? I guess that's what being obsessed with design and pretty things will do to you! ^^
Here is a collection of some of my favorites, all featured on The Dieline!
Zantsi Africa
7 Plagies
Plural Wine
10 Barrel Brewing Co.
Bogotá Beer Company
Blossa Mulled Wine
I am a total sucker for a cool wine label!
ReplyDeleteI always love the fench wine labels! But that Bogota Beer looks cool!
ReplyDelete<3 the site
ReplyDeleteI'm not at all ashamed to say I have done this exact same thing. I also love neat wine corks but luckily those are a happy surprise, not added reason to buy something I dont need ;-)
ReplyDeletei love how the industry has changed... love this labels!!!
ReplyDeleteHaha aww I definitely judge books (and everything in between) by their covers too!
ReplyDeleteI loove great package design too! The Bogota Beer labels are gorgeous...but my favorite has to be Absolut vodka (not to drink, just to admire of course!). I even collected their ads and bottles for years because I was such a fan :)

Those Bogota Beer labels are fantastic, and I would totally buy that last bottle of 7 Plagies even though I can't stand wine.
ReplyDeleteLove these, especially the pantone ones, so cool!

Ah love the labels...especially the 7 Plagies ones!! I've done this before or have chosen solely by name. Last time I was at the wine store Cupcake Vineyards Red Velvet wine drew me in. I just couldn't resist the cutesy name...hehe. Luckily, it was pretty delicious!
ReplyDeletePhew ... I am so glad that I am not the only one! I love liquor labels ... such creativity!
ReplyDelete{I also love a good glass of red wine too ... *ahem* :)}

I must admit, I'm guilty of doing this from time to time as well!

wowww The labels of Bogota Beer look so cool!
ReplyDeleteThat is so funny. I do exactly the same thing. Those bottles are great!
ReplyDeleteUm, is there a better way to buy wine? ;) I check out the wine aisle every time I'm at the store to look for interesting labels for gifts. My favorite so far is the layer cake brand for birthday bottles of wine!
ReplyDeleteI'm allergic to alcohol and I will still buy them if the labels are cool! Those bogota beer are awesome!
ReplyDelete"One of my favorite things to do is go to the liquor store and pick out a bottle of anything based solely on the packaging..."
ReplyDeleteOmg, I thought that I was the only one that does that! O_o
You can find some really good stuff there. Actually, I think that bottle designs and labels are a form of art! :)
But good design doesn't always come with good taste. :D
Anyhow, lovely blog; following! :)
Choosing things based solely on aesthetics is fun and exciting. I enjoy choosing a random new wine to taste each time. Some are good, some are bad, but it's the surprise that makes it interesting.
ReplyDeleteI love this! I've been doing the same so my countertop bar area looks especially pretty! Too fun :)
ReplyDeleteI'm guilty of this too. I love pretty packages. I bought this wine called Gossip and the packaging is just soooooooooo cute. Much to my surprise it tasted pretty good too, it was a Moscatto and which they called Sweet Lips. Gossip never tasted sweeter! =)
