BDL Wines, Inc.Logo & Business Card

Paula and Bob Valeri started their business of distributing high quality wines to upstate New York from some of the best wineries in California. The existing logo had a fresh, interesting concept but needed to be refined to jump out at the viewer, or in their case, potential customers. The BDL logo, along with the rest of their branding has taken on a artisan style that correspond with the culture that surrounds wine making itself.

BDL Wines, Inc.Wholesale Product Catalog

The product catalog was created to set BDL Wines apart from their competitors in the way they would present their library of wines to customers. It is meant to be aesthetically pleasing and give customers an opportunity to get to know the winemakers and the facts about the wine and how it is made. Something that is not to common from a distributor.

Dear Prospective Student,

Strips of glue-colored cloud streaked past the breaks in the blue sky overhead, but beyond our lagoon, in Brewer’s direction, a dense cloud bank formed every after-noon. It stayed and trembled. It was gray-black, the texture of steel wool. There was a mountain side of it, and it hung and thickened until night swept across it. We expected the rain to be plumping down, the way it had in Jeronimo—black rods of it beating into the trees. But there was only the daily upsweep of black cloud, and uncertain winds. Father said it was squalls offshore and that at any minute we would be drenched. We worked and waited in the still heat, watching the high dark sky over the twiggy treetops to the east. The storm lurked and watched us with its hanging wrinkles. It came no closer. Each morning the cloud bank was gone, and the strips and puffs of cloud were like gas balloons against a fine ceiling. The black cloud always returned later, looking crueler. There was no rain. Father howled at us to help him plant the garden. He got madder by the day. He said we were bone lazy and slow and never showed up when he needed us. He was mad about the rain. He had promised it, but it had not come. He howled hardest at Jerry.

Sincerely,

Helen MyersAssociate Professor
