 FEED YOUR SENSES, MIND AND SOUL

Great wine can be the fuel for creativity, and the catalyst for great experiences that bring together friends, food, music, and arts. This is the inspiration for the new family of wines from NEOTEMPO named SENSORIA.

The name SENSORIA refers to the part of the brain that is responsible for receiving, interpreting and integration of stimuli and sensations. It is also the name for our new family of wines.

Our design intent with SENSORIA is to provide new multi-sensory experiences highlighting the alchemy of nature, art, and science to feed the senses, mind and soul

SENSORIA features collaborations with artists that bring multi-sensory elements together to create a curated and elevated experience.  Connecting the exceptional wine within the bottle surrounding it with original artwork in a packaging format designed to delight while being environmentally friendly. We hope to make these wines and experiences memorable, collectable and most importantly enjoyable. 

We believe all great wines should represent a place in time and our SENSORIA wines certainly do. Our vision for SENSORIA is to only use fruit that come from vineyard sites that are farmed organically to best showcase the area and climate they came from. We work with our vineyard management and wine making team to identify those sites and then make the best wines that represent the site. SENSORIA provides us with very limited single site wines. These wines are made to be enjoyed with food and provide the precision and the balance we seek in all of our wines.

Also the artists that we collaborate with for the labels will change from year to year, giving us the ability to work with many artists and promote their art.

SENSORIA INTRIGUE 

Made entirely from Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in our Kiatra vineyard, SENSORIA INTRIGUE is rich in personality and character while displaying texture and distinctive aroma and flavors that perfectly captures our vineyard’s cooler location of Napa and the much celebrated 2021 vintage. The wine shows elements of both the old world and new world showing an elegant mid-palate. The dark color, vivid energy and rich hedonistic flavors inspired us to create a different visual identity for each vintage’s bottle  and pay homage to great artists that inspired us.
 

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.
