Custom Wine & Champagne Mug
- Handpressed in Sussex
- Dishwasher Safe
- Smash-Proof Packaging
- One Year Guarantee
Your wine. Illustrated on a mug.
Upload a photo of any wine bottle — the Bordeaux that marked the day you met, the Chianti you keep going back to, that dusty Rioja from the birth year. We’ll produce three illustrated interpretations: fresh from the vineyard, aged in the cellar, or lit by candlelight. Pick your favourite, preview it wrapped on the mug, and it goes straight into our press queue — no proof email to wait for.
Front-on works best. Well-lit, whole label facing forward. Champagne + sparkling welcome too.
The main chateau, winery or champagne house name on the label. We feed this straight to the system so it reproduces the lettering correctly.
Optional. Vintage year, appellation, varietal, cuvée name — anything else prominent on the label.

About this mug
Custom Wine & Champagne Mug turns any photo of a wine or champagne bottle into a bespoke, illustrated portrait — printed on your choice of mug and hand-pressed to order in our Sussex studio. Every one is a one-off. Your bottle, your label, your private commission — no stock imagery, no templates. Part of our Auto Art range. Spirits to follow.
Wine or champagne? Pick your story.
The same product page covers both. Tap the toggle at the top of the design panel to choose which trio of moods you get back:
Wine — Fresh, Cellar Aged, or Candlelit. Bordeaux, Chianti, Rioja — the bottle that means something.
Champagne & sparkling — Fresh, Ice-cold in the bucket, or Candlelit. Bollinger, Veuve, the bottle from the wedding or the anniversary.
How Custom Wine & Champagne Mug works
1. Pick Wine or Champagne. Toggle at the top of the design panel.
2. Upload a photo. A clear, straight-on shot of the label works best.
3. Get three illustrated interpretations, in a minute. Same design, three moods — tuned to the format you picked.
4. Preview live in 3D. Watch your chosen design wrap onto the actual mug shape. Change size or colour, the mockup updates.
5. Pick + check out. Ready to press the moment you order — no proof round-trips, no waiting a week.
The three flavours
Wine
Fresh — clean, product-shot style. The bottle as it looks straight from the vineyard.
Cellar Aged — dust, patina, a whisper of cobweb at the corners. Decades on a cellar shelf. For bottles with a story to tell.
Candlelit — the warm amber glow of a restaurant candle catching the label. For the bottle that made the meal.
Champagne
Fresh — clean, product-shot style. The bottle straight from the shelf.
Ice-cold in the bucket — condensation on the label, moisture beads, the bottle you’ve just pulled from the ice. For the moment of celebration.
Candlelit — the warm amber glow of a restaurant candle catching the label. For the toast that made the night.
What makes it different
Digitally crafted, humanly instructed. The system is trained to preserve your label’s actual layout — typography, chateau crests, vintage years, appellation markings, medal roundels — and reinterpret only the atmosphere. Not a reinvention, an interpretation.
Faithful to the label. Your bottle, your label, your private commission. No stock imagery, no templates, no reselling.
Ready the moment you order. Because you approve the design before checkout, we can skip the manual proof step — you get your mug faster and priced a touch below our Rolling Render bespoke tier.
Get the best result — a good photo helps
Straight-on, whole label visible, well-lit, no filters. Ideally 2000 × 1500 pixels or larger. Phone snaps work beautifully if the light’s decent. Both wine and champagne bottles work — tall Bordeaux, sloped Burgundy, dark champagne with foil neck, all fine.
How long does it take to arrive?
Hand-pressed and dispatched within two working days. Free UK shipping on orders of two mugs or more; tracked delivery from £1.99 otherwise.
Can I request changes?
Because Auto Art skips the manual proof step, you approve your design at the point of ordering — you’re picking from three considered options against your source photo. Two full generation rounds per hour if you want to try again.
Is the mug dishwasher-safe?
Every ceramic and bone china mug is dishwasher- and microwave-safe. Polymer and travel mugs should be hand-washed and are not microwave-safe. All backed by our 1-year fade guarantee — if the print fades within 12 months, free replacement.
Any brand or bottle?
Yes — any wine, champagne or sparkling bottle you’d like to remember. Because you supplied the source, it’s a private commission for you personally, not a piece of merchandise we’re selling to the world. Which is the honest way of doing this.
