Wolf Blass Gold Label Pinot Noir 2005 by Adelaide Hills Australia.
Wolf Blass is an Australian winery based in South Australia’s Barossa Valley. When winemaker Wolfgang Blass started producing his style of red and white wines he claimed they would “make strong women weak and weak men strong”, Other contentions by Blass include that “parasitic and idiotic funding systems for overseas promotion mean that overproduced wine from Australian irrigated fruit will hit rock bottom, facing competition from South Africa”, and “Barossa should focus on what it does best: full-bodied Shiraz”. He has also stated that “No table wine over 15% [alcohol by volume] should ever get any medal, anywhere in the world, ever.”
The gold color on the label is standing out. The brand and the logo are strong. However the use of black color on the text reduced the elegant effect on the label. Also, the red color makes the text hard to read.
I have not tasted this wine yet. However I like to put it on my wine rack collection.
They have a website. Check it out:

We’ll have to give this Wold Blass a try! And yes, the label is elegant in part of the font used. Great blog! ~ Trèsors De Luxe
