Barbadillo uses Thinfilm’s NFC technology to secure and authenticate limited-edition bottles of rare sherry
Thin Film Electronics (thinfilm.no), a global leader in printed electronics and smart systems, today announced that Barbadillo, a leading Spanish winemaker, has unveiled a highly exclusive release of rare sherry in “smart bottles” protected by Thinfilm’s NFC-based authentication technology. The NFC OpenSense tags incorporated into each bottle are specifically designed to thwart counterfeiters, prevent unauthorized refills, and facilitate product authentication.
Dating back to the 19th century and thought to be one of the oldest and rarest sherries on the market today, the exclusive run of “Versos 1891” bottles goes on sale today from Bodegas Barbadillo and a select group of wine merchants across the globe.
