General Comment
: Very particular label. Combination of white and black (always correct) with a little drop of pale blue to indicate the zone of origin. It matches. It is very clear how much effort has been put to create this label (and the others of the producer are even more impressive). The name come from the Roman Godness Anna Perenna; here the text from the site of the producers that explains: "The name Anaperenna has been inspired by Anna Perenna, the Roman goddess of the New Year. Anna Perenna symbolises the year's cycle and her name translates as 'enduring year'. Romans honoured Anna Perenna with a festival held on the first full moon of the Roman calendar. On March 15th they would ask Anna to grant them longevity, and a healthy year for each glass of wine they drank on that day."

The symbol at the contrary is a (quite stylized) ankh, i.e. the Egyptian cross meaning resurrection and above all l"ife" (think about the name Tut - Ankh - Amon, i.e.  "the living image of Amon"); good idea but it is difficult to glimpse the Egyptian ankh; it is strange because it other labels of the same producer he represented the Egyptian symbols as they were. 

The Egyptian ankh was: 

 The label is surely beautiful, just I am not crazy for the symbol used. Proportions are good and its semplicity gives an idea of force.
Vote: 74/100

Originality: very original. No doubts. Very original also the name. Top Class.  By sure you would note this bottle in between the others; just a little flaw that symbol.
Vote: 91/100

Script: Simple and beautiful. Super the e with line under. A touch of pure class.
Vote: 89/100
