The Smurfterlife

Weep not for me, fellow Smurfs. For I am basking in the warm embrace of the Bright Light.

I am but a blue nomad on a journey into the great unknown, and I go onward with much anticipation.

I am on the cusp of solving life's greatest mystery. And I look forward to my discoveries. When I consider the word "heaven" I imagine a world filled with the explosive aromas and flavors of sweet mandarins, jasmine flower, key lime and honeydew. A world that is crisp and refreshing, never sharp or sweet.

A world where I am free of the Earthly confines of Smurfdom. Where I can dance in the open without fear of being eaten by a smurf-thirsty cat, or captured and turned into smurf stew by his master who, by the way, was not an intentionally anti-semitic social commentary whatsoever. Nope. Not even a little bit. A world where Smurfette isn't such a smurfin' smurf tease and …

HEY. Can you guys turn off that black light? It's totally killing my buzz.

Features

2010 Bright Light, Dry California White Wine 750ml 6-Pack

Bright Light is a fresh, aromatic blend of chardonnay, Albariño and Gewürztraminer sourced from the cool, coastal valleys  of Sonoma and Monterey Counties. Explosive aromas and flavors of sweet mandarins, jasmine flower, key lime and chilled honeydew. Crisp and refreshing, never sharp or sweet.

The Bright Light packaging is as vibrant and compelling as the wine. Designed by Brooklyn artist Andrea von Bujdoss (aka Queen Andrea), the label reflects her work as a graphic and graffiti artist--playful and intricate, exuberant and stylish--and evokes the spirit of the wine within.  You could even say it glows.  Because it does, literally. In the dark and under black lights.
