Choosing Your Labels
Important information

We highly recommend that you choose from the following paper stocks for your sparkling wine labeling. If you choose to use materials outside these recommendations, we will not be held responsible for scrap, wrinkling or bubbling, scuffing or tearing. Customers may be charged for downtime resulting in use of materials not recommended.

Our production team strongly strongly advises that all label designers confer with the label production companies to ensure designs will work with materials chosen.

We request at least 100 extra labels (can be blanks) for set up of your particular run (no matter how small or large the run size).

For pressure sensitive labels, we requests 6-7’ of extra web before the first label, and 6-7’ of extra web at the end of the roll after the last label as well.

All-black labels are not recommended however a UV coating has been shown to reduce scuffing.

All sparkling wine products labeled at our facility must follow the dimension specs shown above. NOTE:  We can accommodate Pressure Sensitive front and back labels paired with a Wet Glue necker.
