Dear Bonny Doon,

They say you can’t judge a book by it’s cover, but I think those people have no love for good graphic design. A well designed book cover is often a good indication of well loved content. No one puts good books in crappy covers if they can help it.

I feel this same way about your wines! I love your labels. I love the artwork and graphic design. I particularly like the Ralph Steadman labels. The contents of these bottles usually live up to the art! The Cardinal Zin is one of my favorite wines of all time. I have a poster of this label above my bed. I often look at it as I fall asleep. I used to drink your wine a lot back when I could afford to drown my sorrows. With the current economy my sorrows seldom even get wet these days. I miss communing with the Cardinal!

If I ever get my finances under control again I’ll be sure to reach for the Zin! Hopefully one day soon I will once again be able to afford a life of debauchery.

Sincerely,

Christopher L. Jorgensen
