VINARIUM consolidates its international status and continues the development of related projects

VINARIUM announces the consolidation of its international status by the endorsement of the competition by the International Union of Oenologists (UIO) for maximum rigor in wine evaluation. This validation strengthens VINARIUM’s position as a regional benchmark and credible platform for producers and consumers, alongside the patronage of OIV, the partnerships and recognitions already existing at international level from VINOFED, FIJEV and ADAR – Professional partner ab initio.

International Wine Label Competition. Second Year

VINARIUM continues the competition dedicated to wine labels.

The project aims to highlight the role of visual identity in the construction of a premium product. The label on the wine bottle is the first contact, the first message and, often, the first indicator of choice.

The competition brings together specialists in the fields of art, design and visual communication for appreciation and awards the most successful graphic concepts.

The first edition was chaired by art critic Adrian Buga, establishing a level of exigency and a clear direction for the development of this project supported by IPPU Prime Label and KURZ Romania.

24 labels were chosen by the judging committees, and in the final, Art Critic Adrian BUGA designated the three winning labels, dedicating a specialized review to each of them.

A7 – Vineyard Highway: A road to the collective good

In parallel, VINARIUM continues to promote the A7 concept – Vineyard Highway.

The initiative aims to transform this infrastructure axis into a development corridor for wine tourism and creative industries, connecting vineyards, communities and cultural heritage with the tourist flow.

A7 means faster and safer traffic, but also opening up to “slow” tourism – in-depth exploration of wine regions, beyond conventional routes, encouraging mobility by motorhome / campervan – the alternative to a hotel infrastructure… almost non-existent.
