V&S Wine won the silver medal at EPICA (a European advertising competition) for their Maru Wine. Swedish design firm Silver came up with the packaging for Maru Wine, a blend from Alsace that is meant to accompany sushi and the palette of those who indulge in the Japanese style of food.
Maru Wine takes its name from the Japanese word for circle (maru). I guess this means that Maru Wine is meant to be drunk with makizushi (maki or rolls) as opposed to nigiri.
