Freixenet Announces 50th Anniversary of Cordon Negro and Debuts New Look for Iconic Black-Matte Bottle
/EIN News/ -- WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., June 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Freixenet, the globally recognized winery, announces the 50th anniversary of Cordon Negro, the wine that catapulted the brand to global recognition. With origins that go back to 1861, Freixenet has remained a recognized producer within the Cava category, while committed to honoring the heritage and passion that goes into every bottle.
“Since the launch of Cordon Negro in 1974, Freixenet has been the leader and most relevant sparkling wine brand globally,” says Enore Ceola, CEO of Freixenet Mionetto USA. “We are at a unique milestone for Cordon Negro, which for five decades has been a global icon for multiple generations. We are ready to introduce the brand to the next generation of wine enthusiasts and continue to build onto the Freixenet legacy.”
“Reaching 50 years of history with Cordon Negro is a pivotal moment for our winery and the brand,” says Pedro Ferrer Noguer, CEO of Freixenet S.A. “With Freixenet being a global sparkling leader, we believe the debut of our new look and ongoing commitment to meeting the expectation of consumer demands, will further drive Freixenet’s premiumization as a globally recognized producer.”
Inspired by the Home of Freixenet - Packaging Refresh
Debuting stateside this year, the Cordon Negro range will have a brand-new look, not only to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the brand’s international icon, Freixenet Cordon Negro, but to also support the winery’s commitment to innovation and storied history of over 150-years.
The new X logo is inspired by the lettering of the original Freixenet façade at the winery entrance, located outside of Barcelona, Spain. The Freixenet crest that adorns the Cordon Negro range has also received a subtle but pronounced design change, reinforcing the brand’s ethos of inspiring people all over the world to celebrate life’s moments.
