Name our White Rhone Blend

Some of you may be familiar with our Red Rhone Blend Cuvee Eddy. Who's Eddy? Everyone asks, and here's the answer. An 'Eddy' is a place in a stream or river where the water reverses flow to travel back up stream and re-circulate into the oncoming water. This is often found in calm spots after a narrow stretch or a set of rapids. The shape of our 'O' and embossing on our label are meant to represent an eddy in a stream for two reasons. One is to represent Chuck's career path starting out small, going big and corporate, and then travelling back upstream to small production winemaking. The other is to represent Matt's ideas and newer technique's blending into the more established techniques Chuck uses. That's our Eddy, who's your Eddy?

So, we are coming out with a white Rhone blend to compliment Cuvee Eddy and we need a name. Should it be a feminine counterpart to Eddy? We need help brainstorming and will give a case of signed bottles to the person that gives us a name or inspires us towards a name.

Get those suggestions going....!!!!

I agree, Eddy needs a girlfriend as this wine will be smooth and crisp

Sue Just plain SWIRL- like a skirt, keeps close to the swirl on label, but just knocks off "girl" or gender in Teresa's "Swirly Girl". Think u guys are "Game on"!Sue; ▶ Reply to This
