“Born of three generations prior, this is my fate, my quest, my Cadre.”
Edna Valley in San Luis Obispo is home to a unique coastal climate that shapes not only the landscapes but the very vines that grow on them. Winemaker and owner John Niven and the newly forged team at Cadre wines have deep roots here— using grapes planted by his grandfather almost 50 years ago, John has created a lineup of expressive, vibrant, world renowned wines that needed to be brought to life.
I’ve never met such a wholesome, enthusiastic creator of their product. We worked closely with our client, an absolute wealth of knowledge, to create illustrations that best represented the flavor profile, narrative, and “personality” of each varietal.
Drawing inspiration and illustrations from 16th century Flemish scientific illustrators, we collaged and created pieces of art to tell each wine’s story.
