The graphics on the can proudly showcase a green rabbit dressed in formal attire. The design is directly printed on the metal bottle using a dry offset process, ensuring high-quality images without secondary labels. According to the Conejo Verde’s legend, the green rabbit is a tireless seeker of extraordinary terroirs and distinctive characteristics of soil that make it prime for growing grapes for wine, and is dedicated to caring for nature and the organic treatment of fruits. This beautifully decorated aluminum bottle combines the company’s unique story, delicious wine, convenience, portability, and sustainability.
