Label changes - revisited
First of all, thank you for all of your suggestions and input about the labels and the changes that should be made to them. It's not an easy thing to do, although our wine doesn't have a huge distribution, once people get used to your label it isn't easy to change it. Oh well, we're going to do it anyway, it's only the second year, maybe we'll change it every year, who knows...
A few people commented on the blank space in the off-set label, that we should fill it up, or use it somehow to tell our story, but the simplicity of it is exactly what I like about it. Here's a revised version in which we decided to reduce the size of the empty, green space so that it would seem less like you had to turn the bottle to read the label. This change though, sent all of the information to the back, which probably won't please some people, but you
can't please everyone, and people around here seemed to like it better than the square one. That said, we are meeting with Kermit Lynch tomorrow at his house near Bandol to taste the 2006, we'll certainly be interested in what he has to say about the label. But more importantly, we'll be sitting on pins and needles, hoping that he likes the 2006 as much as we do!!!! Send us your tasty wine vibes!
So, what happened at Kermit's house? Your fans are waiting to hear!
