I was just at the store buying a bunch of wine. I kinda looked for Brooklyn Wine Co. just to try it. But I was amazed at how many wines are screwcaps now. not just the

I prefer the stelvin caps on wine for a few reasons.
- wine is never corked
- if the service is taking a while at a BYO restaurant you can open your own bottle and get the party started
- you can reuse the bottles to keep water in the fridge.

and I like the designs too. I would probably give those a shot at the bottle shop. I think you have hit the summer/winter feel perfectly.
I definately drink more red in winter becuase of the food and becuase I'm drinking less so I want something with a richer flavour that I can drink just below room temperature. In summer I'm usually drinking outdoors and go for something chilled.

yeah I think the colours are right for the red/white winter/summer thing too.

Disclaimer: I'm a total traditionalist when is about wine labels,
especially when it comes to aged wine:
The "problem" i see is that that brooklin bridge silouhette
for a california wine company, It's like: "wow they now do wine in NY" and then you spot that is a californian company.on the graphic level the yellow (on the red one) doesn't convince me, while the white bottle is ok.
And that smallcaps "CO." on the second line looks bit awkard.
But maybe it's just because we Italians are very traditionalist about wine bottles.
