Forbes × Thummerer Vines — Hand-Engraved Wine Bottle Gifting

Over the past years, I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Forbes Hungary and Thummerer Vines on a series of high-profile events celebrating excellence, leadership, and achievement.

Across three separate Forbes events, I was invited to hand engrave Thummerer wine bottles that were gifted to guests recognized among the 100 most successful companies and the most successful women. Each bottle was engraved individually, transforming the gift into a lasting, personal symbol of recognition.

The collaboration brought together premium Hungarian winemaking and handcrafted engraving, adding a human, artistic layer to an already meaningful gesture. Rather than standard corporate gifting, the engraved bottles carried a sense of intention, appreciation, and permanence — reflecting the values of both Forbes and Thummerer Vines.

This recurring partnership is a strong example of how live engraving can elevate award ceremonies and business events, turning celebratory moments into tangible keepsakes that honor achievement and legacy.

A refined intersection of business, craftsmanship, and storytelling — where success is marked not only by recognition, but by detail.
