Château Teillac Winery

Château Teillac is a wine brand located in Puisseguin, near the historic town of Saint-Emilion in Bordeaux. This area has a long history that goes back almost 2000 years. The famous Bordeaux region owns its distinction as the most important AOC wine region in France to its rich history and its wide variety of high-quality terroirs.

During my position as a graphic designer at Contaínr Affaìrs, I created  a new wine-label and identity design for their modernised Chateau, winery and vineyard. A design that shows the wine estates passion and craftsmanship. The aim was to create an identity which embraces the beautiful inheritance while being contemporary. Besides, it needed design elements that could be used both for the hotel branding as for their wine labels and packaging.

I translated the original drawing of the Chateau, the Maison de Maître, to create a modern translation of the original and authentic label. I created a family coat of arms with a minimalistic approach. The word mark is classic and elegant, yet contemporary. High-end finishes such as embossing and gold foil were used combined with a wax seal. Every bottle has a unique number and a limited edition batch of wine.
