Fourteen New York wineries were among those honored for their packaging designs by Waterloo Container, a
major corporate sponsor of the Finger Lakes International Wine
Competition to benefit Camp Good Days and Special Times.
Wines winning Double Gold and Gold designations at the competition were judged by marketing professionals,
packaging experts, and staff at Waterloo. Gold and silver medals were
awarded after wine packages were evaluated for innovative use of
packaging design, including label, container, and closure. Shelf appeal
and overall presentation also were considered.
Packaging awards were given in eight categories: chardonnay, merlot, riesling, cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon, ice wines, fruit wines, and sparkling wines.
The award winning wines will be featured at the Finger Lakes International Wine Auction Dinner to benefit Camp Good Days and Special Times, scheduled for September 30 at the Holiday Inn in downtown Rochester.
