The Art of Wine

From Stuff:
John Lennon's widow Yoko Ono is the 25th artist commissioned by German art collector and owner of the Nittardi winery, Peter Femfert, to draw a label for a limited edition of his wine.
Every year since 1981, Femfert has "dressed" about 6,000 bottles of his wine - a Chianti with a fresh and fruity bouquet made from 97 percent Sangiovese grape and three percent local Canaiolo grape - with a special work of art. . .
This year Ono has produced a colored ink drawing entitled "Imagine you," a still life of bottles and glasses in a dotted style reminiscent of the late 19th century French painting style known as pointillism.
