⚖️ Required Legal Information (Swiss Food Act)
Due to strict legal labeling requirements, it is recommended to reserve the right side of the label (which will later become the back of the bottle) for mandatory information (recommended area: approx. 45–50 mm wide).
Required elements (font size at least 1.2 mm):
- Product designation:
For Räuschling: Zurich AOC or Swiss Quality Wine
For Pinot Noir: Zurich AOC Barrique or Swiss Quality Wine - Country of Origin: Product from Switzerland or Swiss wine
- Producer's address: JET Wein GmbH, 8707 Uetikon am See
- Certification: Organic wine / Certified by BioSuisse (Knospe logo)
- Nominal volume: 75 cl or 750 ml
- Alcohol content: X% vol. (Exact values, depending on the vintage, will be provided upon order confirmation; approx. 12.00% to 13.5% vol.)
- Allergen Information: Contains sulfites
Note: This area, which is required by law, must be left blank in the layout.
🚀 Print Data Requirements (Data Submission)
Data verification prior to handoff to prevent delays in the production process:
- File format: Print-ready, high-resolution PDF/X-4 or PDF/X-3.
- Color space: Based entirely on CMYK (preferred color profiles: ISO Coated v2 or Fogra 39).
- Image resolution: Embedded image data and raster graphics with a resolution of at least 300 dpi at their original size.
- Fonts: Fully embed or convert all fonts used into paths/curves.
- Bleed & Marks: Print with a 3 mm bleed allowance. Do not place registration marks or color bars in the visible area.
- Die-cut outline: Create the outline for the die cut on a separate layer named “Die-cut outline” using a spot color (e.g., 100% Magenta) set to “Overprint.”
