The Matsu’s wine triology, ‘El Pícaro’, ‘El Recio’ and ‘El Viejo’

Today on TheDieline I ran into the company ‘Vintae Luxury Wine Specialists’. Vintae is Spanish based company that specialize in top of the range and luxury wines.

Not only do they have a great wine portfolio. Together with Spanish agency Moruba, they’ve designed some wonderful bottles to stack in your cellar.

The Winery Arts collection revolves around the number 9, considered by many cultures as the supreme number of knowledge

When a company understands the value of differentiation, simplicity and creativity like Vintae, I can’t do anything but run to the wine shop and empty my savings account. This is the shit you wanna put on your table!

Saturday. It’s half past ten and I’m working an idea for one of my new clients. The concept is pretty finished and I have this idea about how the art direction should be. As I browsed my feeds I found Peter Jaworowski from Bialystok, Poland. Peter is this great retouch, illustrator, master ‘photoshopper’. Spot on. Unfortunately he looks kind of expensive, but I’ll try to get him onboard anyway. Read the interview or head to his site.

My search this fine evening was accompanied by a glass of red wine – A Fonterutoli, 2005, Chianti Classico. A perfect match with grilled sirloin steak and sweet potatoes, pasta with grilled scampi or as I had it – no food at all.

The 2005 Fonterutoli image was taken from Finare Vinare, a Swedish blog on wine.

So there you have it. Two great tips for a better future.
