Mouton Rothschild
Guigal La Turque, Côte-Rôtie.
Timeless design, have always loved the typeface of E. Guigal, and pretty colours.
Do they have to be pretty? Or just best.
Ridge Vineyards is rather well done, clear, legible, packed with information!
Emmerich Knoll: Riesling Ried Loibenberg Smaragd
[Emmerich Knoll, Wachau](https://leonandsonwine.com/cdn/shop/files/2022WeingutEmmerichKnollGelberTraminerSmaragd_Wachau_Austria.jpg?v=1740773618)
Mouton, though that’s a bit of a boring answer, so I’ll go with Catena Zapata, Malbec Argentino
[Marcel Deiss](https://www.marceldeiss.com/fr/3-vins-alsace) has some great designs
Feudi San Gregorio Taurasi
[Umathum](https://wein-fankhauser.de/images/product_images/popup_images/st-laurent-vom-stein-2003-umathum.jpg) is a great juxtaposition of minimalism and ornamentation.
Vietti
Just love their beautiful illustrations for their different varieties. [https://www.decanter.com/premium/vietti-producer-profile-440586/](https://www.decanter.com/premium/vietti-producer-profile-440586/)

Bodega Catena Zapata surely!
Ridge. I will take useful information over a “fancy” label any day!
Wiengut Knoll
Also I’ll throw a vote in for La pergole torte
Château Pichon-Longueville-Baron
I love the braille on the M. Chapoutier bottles. Nice story behind it as well.
Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino.
The chappellet painting labels are unique and very distinctive. From what I remember mostly on the zinfandels.
Armand Rousseau Chambertin
Catena zapata malbec argentino or Weingut Knoll
I’m going to go with Collefrisio In & Out Montepulciano d’Abruzzo. I have clients who will get a glass cutter or industrial razor blazes to remove the metal koi fish and make necklace pendants, bracelets, even Christmas ornaments with them.

Catena Zapata Malbec Argentino
Bartolo Mascarello No Barrique No Berlusconi
Teutonic. Their labels and bottle shape are so distinctive.
Cornelissen MAGMA is pretty cool
I’m just gonna put it out there. Franzia
I love the Clos de l’Oratoire des Papes CdP label! It reminds me of a Joker playing card.
