FEED YOUR SENSES, MIND AND SOUL
A New Family of Wines. A New Kind of Experience.
At NEOTEMPO, we believe great wine can be the fuel for creativity—and the catalyst for unforgettable moments shared with friends, food, music, and art. This belief is the inspiration behind SENSORIA, a new family of wines designed to awaken the senses and ignite the imagination.
The name SENSORIA draws from the region of the brain responsible for receiving, interpreting, and integrating stimuli. It also represents our broader mission: to craft wines that engage not just the palate, but the full spectrum of sensory experience—sight, sound, scent, taste, and emotion.
The Design Intent:
A Multi-Sensory Alchemy
SENSORIA is an expression of the alchemy of nature, art, and science. Each release is conceived as a multi-sensory collaboration, bringing together:
Exceptional single-site wines, made with precision and balance from organically farmed vineyards
Original visual art, through ongoing collaborations with world-renowned artists
Curated music and sonic experiences, enhancing the tasting experience in new dimensions
Eco-conscious design, featuring our lightweight, patent-pending hexagonal bottles and recyclable materials
We aim to create wines and experiences that are memorable, collectable, and above all, enjoyable—works of sensory art that feed the mind and soul as much as the senses.
Place, Precision, and Collaboration
Each SENSORIA wine represents a specific place and moment in time. We work closely with our winemaking and vineyard management teams to select organically farmed sites that best express their terroir and climate. The result is a series of ultra-limited, site-specific wines crafted for balance, longevity, and food pairing.
Our artist collaborations will evolve with each capsule, giving us the freedom to showcase new creative voices and offer collectors fresh visual and emotional perspectives with every vintage.
SENSORIA INTRIGUE EVENTS
The Inaugural Artist Collaboration with Brian Griffin
The first iconic artist collaboration under NEOTEMPO’s SENSORIA series launches with Brian Griffin, the acclaimed British photographer renowned for his work with Depeche Mode, Echo & the Bunnymen, and other defining figures of modern music and culture.
This debut capsule, titled INTRIGUE, draws its name from a recurring theme in Griffin’s work—mystery, narrative tension, and emotional atmosphere. In collaboration with NEOTEMPO, Brian curated a selection of rare, previously unpublished photographs from his Depeche Mode archive to grace the labels of SENSORIA INTRIGUE, complementing NEOTEMPO’s patent-pending hexagonal bottle design—a sculpture in its own right.
Coming Late Summer 2025:
SENSORIA INTRIGUE Events
To celebrate the launch, NEOTEMPO will host a series of intimate multi-sensory experiences in California. Each SENSORIA INTRIGUE event will feature:
Original large-format prints from Griffin’s archive, exhibited in immersive gallery settings
Curated musical playback, thematically aligned with the imagery and wine, presented in immersive spatial audio
A guided tasting of NEOTEMPO wines
An atmosphere that blurs the lines between art installation, wine salon, and sonic performance
SENSORIA INTRIGUE WINES
SENSORIA allows us to collaborate with world class artists and create new experiences for our customers. We love to work with icons in the art world that have inspired us to innovate and go beyond the ordinary.
The inaugural iconic artist collaboration on SENSORIA is with famed British Photographer Brian Griffin and the first capsule is named INTRIGUE, something that is involved in so much of his work.
Brian worked with us to design our labels for SENSORIA INTRIGUE using rare images from his archive complementing our patent-pending hex bottle design and a new round magnum format.

SENSORIA LOVE
Made entirely from Grenache grapes grown in a single historic organic vineyard in Sonoma, our 2023 SENSORIA LOVE Rose is a sophisticated wine for sunny days, beautiful poolside music and great company.
The wine offers a a gorgeous rose gold color, vivid energy, texture and just enough complexity making it an easy drinking wine that pairs beautifully with fun times whether on the beach, poolside or a summer party.
Our winemaking team used precision to best capture the essence of this rose of Grenache. The wine has a unique fingerprint with stone fruit and elderflower aroma, mid-palate texture and freshness add to its attractiveness for easy food pairings.
It’s the perfect daytime or sunset wine year round from Napa to Miami to the beaches of Cape Town or Ibiza. SENSORIA LOVE demanded a different visual identity so the artist we chose to work with represents that desire and we are proud to showcase the art of the contemporary street artist Nick Walker.
Nick Walker is one of the world’s best known street artists. Born in 1969, he emerged from the infamous and ground-breaking Bristol graffiti scene of the early 1980s.
As a forerunner of the British graffiti phenomenon, Nick’s work has become a blueprint for hundreds of emerging artists. His work is constantly evolving and remains innovative, modern and thought provoking.
Nick draws on the energy and imagery of graffiti but he succeeds in combining the freedom the spray can brings, with very controlled and intricate stenciling. The results are highly sophisticated and infinitely desirable. The methods he uses retain their forcefulness and integrity on the traditional medium of canvas.
During the 2020 lockdown period, we acquired an original Nick Walker piece named “Haunted Love” and SENSORIA LOVE is an adaptation of that painting so the label is dear to our hearts. He was very enthusiastic about collaborating with us to make a special version of “Haunted Love” that beautifully adorns our unique hex bottle shape. We chose dark glass for our Rose because we believe the wine can be aged and wanted to provide additional UV Protection.
