Visitors to Muse Winery will be greeted at 11195 Chalet Road  by a new face…

The change from Chalet to Muse takes more than just time.  It’s not only a new label, it’s a new image,  new ambiance, all while continuing  the care of the vineyard and attention to all the elements of making handcrafted  award winning wines.  While the highway signs Wine Tour signs are still showing Chalet, the unveiling of the new sign at the winery  took place last week. Muse Winery owners, Peter and Jane Ellmann, commissioned artist David Hunwick after he held a sculpting course at the winery this spring.  They wanted an original piece to replace the old Chalet , that would be unique and represent the likeness of the Muse mermaid designed by Andrew Lewis.  David  created the piece by  sculpting in clay relief on a  plywood board.  The process then required a rubber mould to cover the piece and then a fibreglass mould over that. Two resin casts were made, one for each side and then laminated onto a lightweight board. The piece  was then hand finished, the patina applied and a final clear lacquer was sprayed over both sides.  The Ellmanns are thrilled with the finished piece.  It’s one more step towards completing the changeover to Muse Winery and shows off the talents of local artist David Hunwick.

BC Wine Label Award Winner Announced today in Penticton - Oct. 9, 2009

The BC Wine Museum & VQA Wine Shop announced the winners of the 2009 British Columbia Wine Label Awards this afternoon in Penticton at the Wine Medal Award Winners Reception.  Wayne Wilson, Executive Director of the BC Wine Museum, announced the winners and presented the awards as part of the Okanagan Fall Wine Festival festivities.

Criteria for each category looked at such things as the visual appeal of a label, creativity,label content, and even the legibility of label text. All entries were also entered into the People's Choice category and put on display at the BC Wine Museum for public voting.

This year's judges were: John Schreiner, author and wine columnist; Stewart Turcotte, owner of Hambleton Galleries; and Lisa Olson, editor and publisher of Orchard & Vine Magazine.

The 2009 BC Wine Label Award Winners are:
