Wine Labels - From Grape to Glass
THE VINTNER’S JOURNEY FROM GRAPE TO GLASS
INTRINSIC SAUVIGNON BLANC
This new launch from INTRINSIC Wine Co. features a custom design from Denver-based street and graffiti artist Tuke. Pairing abstract design with the tasting notes, Tuke created a distinct art piece that captures the wine’s light, airy, and vibrant nature. Each color and design aspect was carefully chosen to represent the different aspects of winemaking style and the fresh, tropical notes. Tuke shared that the shades of green were particularly important, as they were meant to convey the grape’s vibrancy.
THE PALE ROSÉ BY SACHA LICHINE
Created by award-winning winemaker Sacha Lichine, The Pale is an irreverent new rosé perfect for any occasion. Inspired by the oldfashioned idiom “Who’s for a glass of the Pale?” this bottling brings a dose of whimsy despite being a sophisticated and refined liquid. The stunning label features an illustration of a midtwenties soiree inspired by the style of early graphics from The New Yorker.
TWO HANDS WINES GNARLY DUDES SHIRAZ
The Picture Series by Two Hands winery is meant to be an introduction to the brand. Each of the bottles within the collection features photographs taken with a polaroid by photographer Don Brice. For Gnarly Dudes, the polaroid shows a properly gnarly tree paired with reference to The Big Lebowski. Despite the playful label, the wine inside is a classic Barossa Valley Shiraz made with the same level of care and quality as the brand’s higher-tier expressions.
