What’s changed?

In Australia, the Domaine Chandon vineyard is located 60kms north-west of Melbourne. It’s a gorgeous winery in the Yarra Valley – featuring a tasting room with stunning views over fields of sprawling vines. Those fields are brought to life on the foil neck of the bottle, a gorgeous textural pattern that spells out the brand phrase ‘Un Monde de Possibilities’. (Edit: apparently, it’s actually a ‘guilloche’ pattern, often found in passports).

The 5-pointed star hasn’t disappeared; just lost its trailing tail, and became 7-pointed. As the brand has six global wineries (Argentina, Brazil, California, Australia, China, India), we wondered why it wasn’t 6-pointed. According to the press release, the last point on the star makes up the seven continents.
