History
The labels of the 5 Bond wines are certainly special. In the spirit of innovation and continuous improvement, we have brought 19th century banknote identifications into the 21st century to improve the look of labels while adding extra layers to our security features. Using improved gravure technology (steel-engraved), we have applied intricate details and improved the tactility of the surfaces. People still use age-old mail ink formulations to give each cru its signature color and have enlarged the guilloche on the bottom of the label. This colorful disk, consisting of classic geometric turning, contains an algorithmic interference pattern that creates a "latent image". If you tilt the bottle and look over the surface of the label, the letter "B" will become visible, invisible to the eye if you look straight at it.
When developing the labels for the wines, they thought long and hard about how best to graphically convey everything that they wanted the domain to stand for: superior attention to detail, ultimate quality and timeless authenticity, thus trying to capture the culture of to capture the family business, the character of the vineyards and the relationship between product and customer in one image - all within the scarce space that a wine bottle offers with hget design focusing on vintage postage stamps and banknotes, both of which represented the assigned value and artistic were in nature. There was a strong appeal to the idea that the engraving and gravure printing of banknotes had been specially developed to meet the highest standards and to protect against the threat of counterfeiters. After much study and research, we were introduced to the American Bank Note Company, a company dating back to the earliest days of our nation that printed American currency and stamps right up to the time of the Civil War. In the end, we were given the rare privilege of searching their extensive archives.
