Well, I just really like the black and red combination, especially the tone you used for the red, but maybe it's a bit too "busy". What about all black and a single red colored grapevine going vertically down the side? It would still have all the elements you currently have, but just a bit more minimalist.
Is burgundy to expensive or just to much work Still think it would make a neat limited edition.
Something to think about (if reasonable), don't use straight black. Pick an accent color and just make it really dark. This can make various colors pop a little extra.
The white print is more accessible.
The black one is sexual. I donโt make the rules, I just report them. Looks like it should have a name like โBillionaire Infidelityโ or โMidnight Loverโ

The dark one is but I would do less pattern have a nice fancy curve at the top & bottom ornamental like & leave it solid one palm tree at most on the front where the name would be behind it.
Absolute beautiful boxes! Dark is classy and sexy, white the design really pops. I feel the deep red stripe at the bottom of the white makes it feel a little less luxurious. All white may bring up the โhigh endโ tone. But nonetheless, darker colours always feels a little more higher end to me
I guess when it comes to high end liquor, typically I find the box itself can stand in its own as a decoration in a home. When designing these boxes, a question to ask yourself, could this box itself be a piece of decor in someoneโs home?
White, though I agree with a few others that a more muted design would elevate it. And more importantly, use quality/textured/matte packaging material.
The dark one reminds me too much of Apothic, which is definitely not high end.
Both are striking.
Left/white feels more "classy" high-end, sort of legitimately higher brow in its understatedness.
Right/black feels more "trashy" high-end, like it might attract real estate agents.
I tend to like the darker boxes personally, but that's just me. The white one, you can see the the design of the flowers better. Doing dark on dark isn't great. If you did like Black with the flowers being white or something brighter, so they stuck out a little bit more it might feel more "high end" i guess.
Left. The black one feels unsophisticated and somewhat yob-ish.
Packaging feels a little soap/tea like, , would adding images of grapes to the peonies add wine-osity? ๐ค
Not a wine drinker myself but๐คท
Yes, I am aware. I just doubt most people would recognize peonies, so it would just come off as a floral print (which makes it look like soap or tea)
If I didn't already know peony lane was a wine brand I would not look at this box and say "aha, I bet there is wine in that box"
But like I said, I'm not a wine drinker. Perhaps wine drinkers recognize wine boxes by general size or something.
I think it may depend on the contents of the box? Maybe a lighter wine gets the light box, darker or special release gets the right?
That said, if I got the box on the right, I'd almost expect it to be felt/faux velvet textured. The white logo also clashes.
I like what youโre doing @Ben Justman๐ท both designs are bad ass. The white should be the regularly level high end and the black should be black label high end. Iโm guessing all your products are high end. Canโt wait to try them ๐ซก
