Studio Karystios Designs Remuage Sparkling Wine Packaging Inspired by Traditional Remuage Rituals

REMUAGE is a traditional method sparkling wine from Moropoulos Winery, located in Tripolis, Arcadia, at the heart of the Mantinia plateau. Crafted exclusively from the aromatic Moschofilero grape, this wine reflects both the singular character of the region and the patient craftsmanship behind classic sparkling winemaking.
The name Remuage refers to the artisanal technique at the core of its creation. After secondary fermentation in bottle, each bottle is slowly and carefully hand-turned over time, guiding the spent yeast sediment (lees) toward the neck in preparation for disgorgement. This meticulous, labor-intensive process clarifies the wine while preserving its vibrant bubbles, finesse, and aromatic purity. It is a ritual of precision, patience, and human touch-one that honors tradition rather than haste.
The label design captures this elegant movement in a minimalist and poetic way. Unlike other products in the category with heavy loaded packaging, here we have a more minimalistic approach. Flowing typography travels across the surface of the bottle, visually echoing the gradual rotation of the remuage process itself. What begins grounded slowly ascends toward the neck, symbolizing transformation, balance, and the quiet devotion behind every bottle. Floating elements suggest cycles of time, elevation, and harmony between nature and craft.
In a single, fluid gesture, the design transforms the bottle into a narrative-of place, process, and a vineyard culture rooted in Arcadia, where tradition continues to evolve with grace.
