talley vineyardTalley Vineyards will be hosting their tenth annual Mano Tinta revolving artist label competition. Mano Tinta charity wine is a community effort wherein all the grapes, packaging and labor to make the wine is donated and the artwork for the label is created by the local community. The vibrant and creative labels from the past few vintages of the Mano Tinta wine have featured a variety of colorful images, all symbolic of the vineyard worker and their craft.

This competition is open to the general public and will be on display for public viewing and voting in the Talley Vineyards tasting room. Public voting will begin on Saturday, March 24 and  continue through the month of April.  Local artists of all ages and  levels of experience are encouraged to submit their artwork to the Talley Vineyards tasting room anytime through Friday, March 23, 2018. Submissions must be accompanied by a completed entry form and should be original and  meaningful. The winner will be announced within the first week of May and will have their  artwork showcased  on the 2016 Mano Tinta label and website. Entry forms and specific guidelines can be found on the Talley Vineyards website or by contacting [email protected].
