More than 680 pieces of original art were submitted in the second year of the Georges Duboeuf Beaujolais Nouveau Artist Label Competition.
The winner: Nashville, Tenn., native Chloe Meyer. The rich and vivid abstract oil painting features layered hues of fuchsia and violet that seem to “dance” across the canvas, reminding judges of the vibrant tones of freshly-made Beaujolais Nouveau.
“I’m thrilled that my art has been chosen for the label,” Chloé exclaimed. “This is the greatest accolade in my career. It’s a huge opportunity and I can’t wait to see the bottles in November!” Her work will be featured on the wine’s label when it is released, per French law and tradition, at 12:01 a.m. Nov. 15, 2018 (the third Thursday in November).
