If you’re one of the select few with access to the Linne Calodo society of wine connoisseurs and sommeliers alike, then you are given the opportunity to fully indulge in the experience of a highly regarded California wine. If you are not, you can still appreciate and see for yourself the intricately crafted and masterfully designed labeling of Linne Calodo’s line of The Mad Scientist.

Inspired predominantly by the influence Mother Nature has on wine vinification, Makers & Allies set out to construct a textured and distinctive look. Using charcoal rubbing and grape vines for each of the label’s minimalist and marbled designs, they created a modern, yet homely facade. The balance between our lack of control with nature and our use of science in an attempt to control certain elements and circumstances, is emphasized with the overall look and feel of the bottles.
