Nine Suns

6/7/2017

 
The Nine Suns Winery in Napa Valley takes its name from an ancient Chinese legend about restoring balance. It is a rich, evocative story that Uneka helped give deeper meaning to with the product's gift box design. The winery takes its name from an ancient Chinese legend. Long ago, ten sunbirds took turns rising and setting each day. One day they grew bored of their routine, and all rose together, but their combined heat threatened to scorch the earth. The archer Houyi was summoned to shoot down nine sunbirds, leaving one in the sky to restore balance. With this legend in mind, Uneka aimed to create an elegant gift box packaging for the Nine Suns vintage that embodies balance and reflects the unique, steeply sloping terrain of the Houyi vineyard where it originates.  The result is a beautifully crafted, thoughtful masterpiece that earned them Runner Up Packaging Award in the Core77 Design Awards 2017.
