General Comment: Finally a (young) new firm that focus its production (so it is said on their site) not just on the inside (wine) but also on the casing, i.e. the label. So we are totally simpathetic on this matter. And it is evident the effort in originality of this firm. Surely the shape of the label (silkscrened!) is quite particular, with a lion staring at the consumer, like to challenge him to try and buy it. The colour is cork-stylish on purpose. A little crown as logo, probably becaue of the lion. Just the name of the wine, while the data's are all on the back label, even the name of the producer (what a courage in a world of wine where people put the name of the producer bigger that the kind of wine, even against the law prescriptions). I like the little frame around the name Barbaresco. The stylized lion reminds me somehow a tatoo, and maybe for wines like Barbaresco (and Barolo has identical label, fact that personally I do appreciate, considering my origin) is too much. So my judgment is suspended between courage and approval and risky new style. Surely a label of value. The colours match, even though imagine with gold background. This label loses points after all for the following: 1) a lion does not represent anything in Langa; 2) the lion itself reminds me too much of a tatoo, so young but somehow not matching with superwines; more disco. Identical for Barolo label where it changes just the name of the wine.

General Comment: For once I do examine the entire production of label of one producer (maybe I will proceed in the same way for others); I will not repeat what said for the other label of Barbaresco, adding just new marks. I like the intense blue colour, but this one seems to me to be to shining and modern. Lovely the idea of a sketch of colour, but maybe too confusing. I like the contour of the lion in silver. But the idea is always of a tatoo. More confused than the previous. This time they put the name. So less courage but I understand it. (though 1 point less).

Originality: well on this field the hit the top! But a little less than the other. It seems more like a new gin.
Vote 85/100
Script: Very little. This time there is the script LEBON (with a particular line on the O to mark the accent). The shape all together loses a little in comparation with the previous. The script used for LEBON are too simple.
