Doing a crazy label for this white wine.


20110131_185410_rkat.jpg



Since this is a very different white wine, I decided to make it mysterious. This is
from the Russian break-up country of Georgia. Some of us will remember Marie LaVough from the song of the 60's. She was the mysterious swamp woman. So, this is our rendition of 'our' Marie holding her rooster. It will be printed in only black ink - - - - making different wine labels and ideas is part of the fun for me.


Have lots of this wine to bottle. 8 cases for Oakhill Lane Cellars and 8 cases for Hill House Vineyards so gotta get this going. Don't know what Steve is doing for his share.


Hope you enjoy!

If the wine is half as good as the label you got yourself a winner
 
Some people will buy a wine just because of the label, this would sell!! And you get a great wine to boot. Nice work
 
Well here is the finished product


Our little labeling and capsuling bench.

made a jig with tape at different levels to keep labels all the same
depending on the style of bottles used

I will label 15 cases total and have 6 done at this time. Just sit, listen to music
and label label label.


Relaxing time.

Nice relaxing set up there Rick. Its nice when I have a second person corking, I let them put on all the labels and capsules and it takes about that long for me to clean up from bottling and filtering.
