Production Technology

The front label was printed on Fasson Estate 8,89gr and the back label on white Martele, 90gr.
The label was printed using offset technology, and both its printing and finishes were carried out on a Gallus machine with 5 special colors and Alufin Matt Gio-NB matt silver overprintable folia, silkscreen varnish and mechanical relief.
The back label was made using digital technology on a Xeikon CX3 series machine printed in 3 special colors.

Design Challenge

The challenge of this packaging consisted of designing the Rivalta label so that it would maintain some of its initial characteristics but at the same time managed to revitalize the passionate and adventurous spirit of the pioneer generations, focusing on the place of origin of the Pavone family. Red now plays an important role in Rivalta's new personality, making it more elegant and sophisticated.

Project Duration

Rivalta was launched in June 2022 in Chile as the first market.

Operation Flow

This packaging is a limited production of 1,000 boxes per year. It is currently sold in Chile as well as in Santa Ema’s main markets such as China, Brazil, Hong Kong, and the Czech Republic among others.

Research

The design of the Rivalta Gift Box was the result of several previous technical tests during the trial period so as to enhance the design and establish the percentage of folia, red and silver ink of the illustration and this way define which one interpreted the new personality of this product in the best manner. Five different printing originals were elaborated until reaching the desired result.

Inspiration

Rivalta is a tribute to Pedro Pavone-Voglino, father of Félix Pavone who was the founder of Vina Santa Ema. Endowed with a wonderful pioneering spirit and great determination, in 1917 Pedro Pavone-Voglino embarked on the long journey from his home in Rivalta, in Piedmont, Italy to the New World. Upon arriving in Chile, he settled in Isla de Maipo where the landscape and its extraordinary characteristics for viticulture charmed him at once.
