Calling All Emerging Italian Artists!
Wine52 has partnered with the Italian Trade Agency to launch an exciting nationwide wine label design competition—and we want YOU to be part of it!
HOW TO ENTER
We’re inviting illustrators, photographers, artists, and graphic designers to create a unique wine label for our exclusive Italian wine collections (2025-2026). This is a fantastic opportunity to be commissioned on a paid basis to showcase your creativity on a premium bottle of wine from one of Italy’s most exciting wine regions.
The competition is open to Italian-speakers, residents of Italy, or designers with a connection to Italian heritage or culture. We particularly encourage participation from those with experience in Italian design traditions, but submissions from all backgrounds are welcome.
What’s in it for you?
- Commissioned artists will be paid a participation fee.
- Your label will compete in the Italian Wine Label Awards, where Wine52 members and a panel of judges will select their favourite design.
- The winning artist will be flown to London to collect the award at the prestigious Italian Wine Awards at the Embassy of Italy.
