Bag-in-Box wine
is the least sexy wine packaging solution on the planet, but the
much-derided sector is set for a makeover as db.com reports that a trend is developing for boxed wine fashioned
into the shape of chic handbags in a bid to boost BIB's unglamourous
image.
Keen to appeal
to fashion savvy consumers, Swedish company Vernissage has released a trio of
on-the-go boxed wines shaped to look like designer handbags. Created by Stockholm-based
graphic designer Sofia Blomberg, the so-called Bag-in-Bag wine is made at the
Nordic Sea Winery in Sweden run by Takis Soldatos.
The Vernissage range
features a Chardonnay/Viognier blend, a Syrah/Cabernet Sauvignon blend, and a
Syrah rosé from grapes grown in the Vin de Pays d’Oc. The wines are packaged in
a handbag corresponding to their colour – white, black and pink, finished with
a black cord handle and a pop-out spout at one end.
Developed by Blomberg to make the wine inside easy to carry, the
handbags are on sale in Europe, and will go on sale in the US next
month. Italian producer Cantina di Soave has also launched a line of boxed wine from
the Veneto region fashioned to look like pastel-coloured handbags with a
carrying strap and a side tap.
The three-strong range, produced entirely from
recyclable materials, includes Volére Pinot Grigio, Volére Merlot/Pinot Noir,
and Volére Rosé. The chic trio, each holding 1.5-litres of wine, has been taken
on in the US by MW Imports, a division of Mionetto USA, with an rrp of US$12.99
per purse.
The enthusiastic reception the bags have received is encouraging, illustrating that consumers are willing to embrace eco-friendly
wine packaging alternatives to the conventional 75cl glass bottle. What do you
make them – clever or crass? I’d love to hear your
thoughts.
Not all Speculate guess handbags somebody personalization on the secure pulls. Also, the brand "Estimate by Prizefighter" is the upscale version so your marque on picture two is incorrect. Eventually, application in the bags would never be leather - virtuous cotton or satin.Thanks for protecting the brand!!!
