Jennifer Wilson from Manchester, New Hampshire.
When asked what inspired her design, Jennifer replied, “The inspiration for my design came out of a loss of a close family member, actually. It is holidays such as Valentine’s Day that remind us most of the ones we love and who have ‘stolen’ our hearts, be they family, friends, or significant others.”
In her spare time, Jennifer designs logos and websites, but for a more steady income, she’s a bartender, where I’m sure she sees lots of labels. She enjoys many different wines but truly loves Zinfandels! She admits to trying just about anything but when buying for herself, she chooses by label design. Jennifer loves to spend time with her son, who will be 4 years old in March of this year. They like to go to the playgrounds near their home and spend time with their 1-year-old Yorkshire Terrier.

Juan Gaurdino from Santa Rosa, CA.
Juan is man of few words and his label is the proof. He simply wanted to come up with a Valentine’s Day label that was fun and simple to read.
When not designing labels, Juan likes to spend time with his family and friends, drinks red wine and enjoys working on his house and on old cars.
Juan wins the 1st Prize package of

Audrey Martin from San Francisco.
Audrey is really excited to be a winner. Her design was inspired by the fun and kitschy aspect of Valentine’s Day—from the utterly sweet to the poignantly silly.
When she’s not designing labels, Audrey works as a psychotherapist and has a private practice in San Francisco. She likes to drink Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah and enjoys going to wine bars, playgrounds, art galleries, and hanging out with her husband and fun-loving two year-old son—not necessarily in that order.
Audrey will receive our 2nd Prize package of
- Windsor Vineyards 2001 North Coast Brut and Flutes Gift Set
- Bacchus Champagne Bucket
- Box of Artisan Chocolate Truffles
- Epicurean Champagne Stopper
Joyce Kerrigan from Chantilly, VA.
Joyce was snowed in over the weekend, watching her daughter and husband play with Valentine’s conversation hearts and she decided to create a label. She took a photo, did some research on some wine terminology and created the label as a play on words between wine terminology and the shared love of wine.
Joyce is the owner of Sharkbunny Design & Products for Marketing Communications. She loves the Windsor Vineyards Zinfandel as well as painting, illustrating, photography and hanging out with her daughter.
Joyce wins our 3rd Prize package of
- Orange Laguiole Corkscrew
- Set of 4 Riedel O Tumblers
- Handpainted Vintage French Slate Art
