My family makes their own wine every autumn. We go out and buy cases upon cases of grapes and put them in this wooden contraption that squeeze the grapes until juice drains out into a barrel. There are no ladies hiking up their skirts to dance to music to mash the grapes with their feet, although just once I would like to try it. I think I would enjoy it. My family takes the grape juice and puts it in barrels for aging. A couple months later, the wine is ready for the holiday season! My uncles and my grandfather all rave about the wine and compare this year's varietal to last year's.
Today I came across Killibinbin Wines, based in Australia. These "killer" wines remind me of my uncles and my grandfather telling any guest that comes into our house at Christmas time just "how good" their wine is. Killibinbin wines were tired of having to tell everyone just how "killer" their wines were and decided to put it right on the label! Each varietal features its own illustration taken from horror flicks and their gruesome killing scenes. These labels are printed on thick, uncoated stock to give the feeling of an old horror movie flyer. These picture wines received the 2007 Graphis International Award (New York). Killibinbin Wines was started in 1997 by Wayne Anderson and Liz Banks. The winery now produces over 5,000 cases and is served in some of finest establishments around the world.
