This sophisticated wine bottle was designed by the creative agency 'Shumi Love Design' for its client 'Ampelos' in the Republic of Moldova.

The bottles contain a Merlot that is named after the commonly used term "et cetera" -- meaning to go on. The bottle's title, along with the rest of the label wording, is featured vertically rather than horizontally -- an uncommon sight in comparison to most wine labels. The most unique part of this bottle is the punctuation that drives home the term et cetera, with an ellipsis taking the form of three large circles on the bottles.

The labeling on these [sophisticated wine bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krink-x-barossa-ink-limited-edition-shiraz) has a unique layout that is only emphasized by its clever use of punctuation.
