Labelmaker Jordan Jelev has created a new label for Bulgarian winemaker Salla Estate using UPM Raflatac’s Velmart White WSA-FSC material.
The material is a thick paper exhibiting a unique texture with a traditional yet modern feel, according to UPM Raflatac.

For the new label, Jelev has created a pattern with printed diagonal lines and varnish on a paper background.
Saturated gold hot-foil was also used to stamp the Salla Estate logo onto the label.
Jelev said: “Salla Estate is a winery where tradition meets modernity in every aspect. I decided to create a modern heraldic label that would represent the past, present and future.
“Influenced and inspired by heraldic tradition and modern design, I created a pattern with diagonal lines printed directly and raised varnish against the paper background. I did some research for the lines’ thickness and spacing and the result was amazing.

Besides offering design services, the labelmaker has decided to replace the bottle with a stylish Rhein-type bottle by Saverglass.
