Hyatt's House Wine Gets Student-Designed Labels

Filed under: Art

If you order Hyatt's house wine brand, Canvas, starting next month, you'll get a lovely surprise, the beautiful labels shown above. Hyatt Hotels & Resorts and Folio Fine Wine Partners announced the winners of the 2010 Canvas Artist Series Contest, which gave accredited art students the chance to create a signature wine label for Canvas, a wine brand created by Folio Fine Wine Partners exclusively for Hyatt. The limited edition Canvas wine bottles will be available at all participating Hyatt properties throughout the U.S. starting in February 2011 and feature striking artworks chosen from a wide field of entries. The Cabernet Sauvignon label was created by Jesse Couturier-Herndon of Armstrong Atlantic State University; the Merlot was designed by Anna Membrino of Southern Methodist University and the Chardonnay was done by Claire Ramirez of Trinity University. Each student also received a $5,000 scholarship from Hyatt.

The house wine at the Hyatt Hotels & Resorts will now really be the house wine. The hotel company has announced a new signature wine brand, Canvas, which was developed in partnership with Folio Fine Wine Partners, a Napa Valley, Calif.-based company owned by the Michael Mondavi family. The wine comes in three varietals so far: a 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon, a 2005 Merlot and a 2005 Chardonnay. As part of the rollout, Hyatt sommelier Andrea Robinson Immer will provide training for hotel staff and host wine tasting events at properties across the Unites States.
