Far Niente : Chardonnay
This was the first of the labels Tom designed for Gil Nickel in 1979. It is a combination of a water color rendering of the grapes and leaves embossed, a pen and ink sketch of the winery and vineyard, gold embossed borders, black foil embossed winery name and varitial, dye cut and varnished. This label passes thru the press seven times before is ready to place on the bottle. It's said to be "the most detailed label in the industry." |

Far Niente : Cabernet Sauvignon
The Far Niente Cabernet Label has gone thru the most development. From its conception, the cabernet label has increased in length brightened in color and been tapered to fit the Bordeaux bottle. Tom has added more grapes and leaves yet kept the classic Far Niente look. |

Far Niente : Dolce
Tom's design for the "Dolce" desert wine, created by Far Niente winery, has caught the eye of many connoisseurs and art aficionados. Truly one of the most beautiful wine labels ever created, this Art Nouveau design is a serigraph of 24 carat gold and ceramic glazes fired onto the bottle. This is a timeless wine in a timeless bottle. |
