Collage Workshop at Liten Buffel Winery

Disclaimer. I am not a writer. Don’t be a grammar Nazi. Thanks!

Lets get right down to it. Liten Buffel makes the best wine in the Niagara Frontier. Most NY wine tastes like flat cream soda with a hint of grape jam.

bleh.

I am not going to pretend to know anything about wine in this post. Try it the wine for yourself. If your favorite wine is the Riesling candy-juice they serve at The World’s Largest Disco, Liten Buffel is probably not for you. If you like the living and austere flavors of natural wine, Liten Buffel is perfect. The wine is light and flavorful. It is not trying to be Californian. If you are on a fermentation kick, and you like the nuance of craft cider, local terroir, and maybe a hint of kombucha this is your beverage.

This Winery holds a special place in my heart. My friend Patrick Vaughn is co-owner of this beautiful place. A few years ago he told me he had been busting his hump for a year building a winery from the ground up. I had not heard much from Pat since high school. Pat was an Army Ranger, and after his service he was employed in Afghanistan for several years. Shortly after our phone call, we began to collaborate.

The custom label for Faucheaux “Fo Sho”

I designed a wine label for Liten Buffel, and it is now their most popular wine. This year’s vintage is totally sold out already! The name of the wine is Faucheaux pronounced “Fo Sho”. Needless to say these guys have a sense of humor and style. Faucheaux was also featured in Bon Appetite magazine as well.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the winery to learn how to collage. This was a perfect event. We celebrated craft on so many levels.
