Prices vary by option and order size. By Andrew Adams GLOBAL PACKAGE The Doble Alto line of glass bottles by the Spanish packaging supplier Estal Packaging is now available through Global Pack- age in Napa, Calif. The bottles feature a double base that in- creases height and "product presence" without requiring more glass for manufacturing. "We see it as a revolution in design for the bottle industry," said Global Package president Erica Harrop. globalpackage.net. ARDAGH GROUP The Claret Regal and Burgundy Inspiration 750ml bottles by Ardagh Group of Muncie, Ind., are now available for use with a Stelvin screwcap closure. The Claret Regal Stelvin is available in antique green, and the Bur- gundy Inspiration is available in flint and Champagne green. ardaghgroup.com/glass SGP PACKAGING The interior embossing by SGP Packaging can be felt by some- one holding the bottle, or the feature can be added to leave the bottle surface smooth to the touch. In a similar fash- ion, the embossed interior can be just slightly visible or invis- ible when the bottle is full and revealed as the wine is poured. Fairfield, Calif.-based SGP Pack- aging is also allowing clients to design a custom punt for an ex- isting stock bottle and is offering bottles in "Tradiver," an intense, dark green that was created by Verallia France for the Grand Crus Classes of Bordeaux. sgp-packaging.com SAVERGLASS The new "Invent" line of pre- mium bottles by Saverglass of Napa, Calif., are "defined by its avant-garde new punt design," according to the company. "The bottle seems to eloquently melt at its base, creating a curve and fold of lines that organically bloom into a distinct silhouette." Both styles are available in Bordeaux or Burgundy bottle styles in two colors: extra-white flint glass or antique green. saverglass.com Global Package Doble Alto Ardagh Group SGP Packaging Saverglass Invent The Wines & Vines Product Focus feature is not intended to provide a definitive listing of all available products in a particular segment or provide any comparative analysis, but rather serve as an overview of what's new or available and also of potential interest to readers as determined by the magazine's editorial staff.
