As we walked through the vineyards during a visit to the winery we noticed that at its highest point, where the centuries-old vines are grown, the soil was extremely dusty and a deep brown colour, perfect for its use as a natural pigment in line with the first labels we made for them in 2014 with the use, for the first time ever, of textured pigments on adhesive paper.
An innovation that still represents the stylistic language of the Palmento Costanzo winery throughout the world, identifying the different wine selections with the various chromatic compositions of the soil. The label is also formed by overlapping several papers, divided into three sections where, in the upper part, the chestnut poles, typically used for Etna’s saplings, are represented in debossing.
