Colombier Wines Invests In Accurioprint C4056 From Auroa Print To Showcase Wine Quality
Colombier Wines is a national wine company based in Derbyshire. The family business has served the hotel and restaurant industry for over 40 years. It boasts an impressive portfolio of over 1,000 wines specially imported from talented growers with ‘state of the art’ skills in winemaking. It is a list that is constantly evolving as the company is continuously discovering and partnering with new talented Vignerons and importing their wines.
Challenge
The constantly evolving catalogue provides Colombier Wines’ clients with details of all the wines currently in stock. It showcases the designs of the bottle and label, as well as details about the varieties and vintages, tasting notes and background about the grower and vineyard. This catalogue is designed, managed and printed completely in-house by the Colombier Wines team.
Jehu commented on the importance of the catalogue, “Presenting our wines visually on the printed page helps to bring them to life. Our job is to help educate our clients and their customers, introducing them to new varieties and vintages that would be the perfect addition to their wine list.”
Solution
The ability to control the entire end-to-end print production process was key for Colombier Wines as Pete explained, “They wanted to be able to update the catalogue and print wine lists on demand, without relying on a third-party. Our job at Aurora was to create a small fully functioning print room that the team would find easy to use, with exceptional results.”
“When Pete showed me what the Konica Minolta press was capable of, I was impressed by the quality. However, it was also the interest he showed in us, his knowledge of print and understanding what we wanted to achieve that made a real impression” commented Jehu.
