4 Seas Label -

[rrawhide]

Hi Ya'll


This is my new label for our 2010 red blend. Started with the idea of 4- C's since this is a barrel of 4 Italian Reds all starting with the letter C: ie: Charbono, Carnelian, Centurian and Carmine.


Then my mind went wild - and I changed the 4 - C's to 4 Seas. I wanted to use an old sailing ship and was looking for one when my partners wife, Joanie, said she drew one when she was going to school and maybe I could use it. She emailed it to me and I said "wow" this is exactly what i was looking for.It sure is funny howthings developand here it is:

Great label Rick

Since sailing is my other hobby, I like the sailing theme also.

This one is almost too hard to resist..........

So many Jay Leno type one-liners are popping into my head ATM it may explode!

But alas its early and I couldn't even blame my poor taste on too much wine.......

Ahem....

Rick, nice labels!

Great backstory to boot!

 

[grapeman]

Dan did you ask her who got to ring the bell?


At least whenever she has some of your Niagara, she will probably get a smile on her face!

 

[Runningwolf]

She did mention something about fireworks

Rick these guys are sick! Just like the rest of us

Please excuse them for hijacking this thread. Your label is great and I was just amazed as I was thinking of something very close to it.


You know Mike isn't done with this yet
