Filirea Gi wine packaging does well to communicate its homemade quality through the use of endearing drawings. Unlike many [liquor labels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/collectible-spirits-bottle), these ones do not feature obviously computerized graphics, rather opting for a freehand approach that's got a great deal more charm and geniality.

Christos Zafeiriadis of Athens, Greece, gave each of the [dark-colored wine bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chloe-wine-collection) a cute paper sleeve that's been casually bound around the neck with string. A [silk screening technique](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krink-x-barossa-ink-limited-edition-shiraz) was used to copy the lovely illustrations onto each one, showing the consumer a pictorial explanation for how the contents of Filirea Gi wine packaging came to be. Grape vines, rain clouds, baskets and barrels tell a visual story about the fruit's fermentation.
