Wine Labels - From Grape to Glass

THE VINTNER’S JOURNEY FROM GRAPE TO GLASS

RED SCHOONER RED BLEND

Grapes for this smooth Malbec are grown in the Argentinian Andes before being transported by ocean voyage to Caymus. The striking label showcases both the local terroir and the voyage the grapes take on their way to becoming wine. Each bottle is labeled with the voyage by which it traveled rather than the vintage date, hence the 2019 expression is Voyage 9.

ASÚA RIOJA RESERVA 2016 BY COMPAÑÍA VINÍCOLA DEL NORTE DE ESPAÑA

Founded in 1879 by the Real de Asúa brothers, Compañía Vinícola del Norte de España produces a range of stunning wines throughout Spain. Asúa Rioja Reserve’s 2016 bottling features a stunning watercolor painting of a local landmark and the old winery. The medium-bodied wine is made from Tempranillo grapes and has notes of berries, oak, and leather.

PARCELICA GREEN 2018 BY BODEGAS ANTONIO CANDELA

The name and label of this bold red serves as a homage to the family’s first plot where decades ago they began growing wine. The label from each of the three wines in the Parcelica collection shows an aerial rendering of the plot where the grapes are grown. The Green bottle is unique in that the plots for each are farmed organically. The easy to drink wine is medium-to-full bodied with notes of blueberry, delicate florals, and a cigar-box finish.
