Product description from producer

Once upon a time, the wine company from California "Hahn Estates" planned to launch a new brand of varietal wine, which would be perceived by the buyer as a boutique brand from small French bistros. In order to successfully launch such a wine brand, it was necessary to come up with something bright and extraordinary. The winemakers from "Hahn Estates" entrusted the American design agency "CF Napa Brand Design" with the work on creating a label design for the future wine. The agency presented the brand "Cycles Gladiator" in a romantic style, which was completely associated with wine and attracted a wide consumer group. The name of the wine and the attractive label "were borrowed" from an old French poster created in 1895 to advertise bicycles: it shows a naked nymph flying with a bicycle through a starry sky. According to the designers, such an image should be associated with freedom and happiness. The result of such a bold decision did not take long. Today, "Cycles Gladiator" is one of the fastest growing modern brands in the USA. More than 1.5 million bottles were sold in the first 12 months after launch. The thematic magazine "Wine Business" named "Cycles Gladiator" the sixth in the rating of "Hottest Small Brands" ("The most popular small brands"), and the publication "WineEnthusiast" included the brand in the list of "Top 100 Best Buys". Adam La Zarr, the creator of Cycles Gladiator wines, is an experienced winemaker with over 20 years of experience at top wineries in Chile, Spain and the USA. Today, Adam is one of the most authoritative winemakers in California. In 2005, La Zarr was named California Winery of the Year, and in 2012 was ranked 69th on the 100 Most Influential People in the US Wine Industry. Condition: Red Dry.
