7. The Best Cellars
Boston, Massachusetts
Best Cellars came to recognize that while many people liked
drinking wine, they were put off by the "world of wine“ and its
mysteries, rituals, and often steep tariffs. After conducting
research they discovered the real problem.
Shopper Problem: How could shoppers makes sense of the
dizzying number of countries, regions, grapes, and labels
found in a wine store?
Solution: Create an atmosphere that allowed them to feel
comfortable making a purchase. The goal was to make shopping
for wine as easy as shopping for ice cream. By creating a icon
system that helped shoppers evaluate their choices based on meal
or mood, the wine shopping experience was transformed to a fun
environment.
