Preparing Packs for Photo Shoots


Wine Estates and Wineries can use the following pack/bottle selection pointers for photo shoots to ensure the best photographic results of their products.

Simply make sure that:
- the label is clean and undamaged;
- the label is applied straight;
- the cap is neatly applied and undamaged;
- the bottle has few or no scratches;
- the Locating Lug (indent on heel) is at the back;
- the back label of White and Rosé wines are removed; and most importantly
- the seams of the bottle does not run under the label.

The rest you can leave up to us.
