Feb. 19, 2009 - PRLog -- Duplin Winery is sponsoring a label competition for their newest release wine, Sweet Caroline.  Sweet Caroline is slated for release in May and is a sweet, red blend.  The contest, which has a deadline for entries of March 31, 2009, is open to all artists who enjoy Duplin wines and have a fondness for the great state of North Carolina.  

“As the oldest and largest Muscadine winery in North Carolina, we know first hand the beauty that lies in our own backyard.  Our hope is to see artists capture the essence of North Carolina’s unique beauty for this newest release.  We invite all entrants to visit the winery, walk the vineyards, and explore the splendor of North Carolina’s great landscapes and qualities,” Jonathan Fussell, President of Retail Sales at Duplin Winery.

Duplin Winery received a tremendous response to the first label competition held last year, Jewels of the Carolina Coast.  This year, they are taking the contest digital for the first phase.  Entrants are invited to visit www.jewelsofcarolina.com to learn more about the wine, competition rules, and submit a digital version of their original artwork.  Judging phases will include an online review and selection by the general public, followed by the final selection being chosen the Duplin Winery family.

Last year’s winner, Jeffrey Bozik of Wilmington, saw his winning piece adorn the label for Eventide.  The original artwork was auctioned at a special event which featured a performance by renowned pianist and composer, Grenaldo Frazier, with money benefitting the Children’s Miracle Network.
