Batch Winery Waiheke Island – Wine Label Design by Duffy Design

Batch Winery 1299 Blanc de Blancs being served at the Sculpture on the Gulf opening, and the premium range Thomas & Sons.

Duffy worked with leading designer David Scott who designed the Batch Winery building, Duffy created the coloured panels that adorn the exterior walls of the winery, the colours inspired by the colours of wine from pale lemon lime (Pinot Gris) to Rose to Deep Plum (Merlot).

Batch Winery is one of New Zealand’s first gravity-fed wineries allowing hand-picked grapes to be delivered at the top level then naturally wine feeds into tanks and aged wines into the barrel hall built into the hillside.

The name Batch reflecting the care, attention and uniqueness of each ‘Batch’ of wine it produces.

All of the Batch Winery labels feature the same wine colour ‘stripes’ to connect them with the Art in the Vineyard, the exterior of the winery.

The Batch labels are all uniquely numbered for each type of wine using a custom designed font by Duffy which is comprised of lines in varying weights to mimic barcoding.

The Thomas and Sons label, Batch Wineries premium wine features a Digital Dot and Line coding design along with the wine stripes.

And the still to be released Thomas’s Bach label will be a more ‘Kiwi Bach’ feel in design being home to the Thomas Family hence also Batch Winery is known as the Thomas Estate Vineyard.

Duffy designed the logo design, loyalty cards, lightboxes and window graphics. The brand identity, a fusion of a ‘tree’ design that was worked through from the Interior Design linking the woven hessian panels with the tree pattern on the windows, lightbox and in the hand shape in the ‘u’ of Rub. A fun project!

Duffy was approached to create a new identity to move the former franchise owner of ‘Auckland Home Loans’ to a new brand that he would be proud of that truly reflected his innovative and progressive Mortgage and Insurance business.

Duffy engaged a Brand consultant to run several workshops to find a new brand name and brand essence that now is The Mortgage Supply Co.

“Rebranding and relaunching my business would have been a far bigger task than it was without Belinda’s expertise. The best thing we did was bring Belinda in right at the start where we literally had just a blank piece of paper. Right from concept design to ensuring her web site design was produced the highest standards through the web site development process.
Belinda ensured that my dream for the brand became real. Her creative talents combined with an eye for detail has given us a look we are immensely proud of and one that our clients comment on over and over again.”
David Windler, Director, The Mortgage Supply Co.
