This event has ended.

Brooklyn Oenology Winery (pronounced ‘EN-ology’, or simply ‘BOE’), a local winery which applies the work of Brooklyn artists on its bottle labels, presents a solo exhibition of work by artist Jen Ferguson, whose watercolor paintings “Friends” and “In the Neighborhood” are featured on the 2010 Riesling and 2006 Motley Cru labels. Work by Ferguson will be on display through July 31st.

To celebrate, BOE will feature $2 off glasses of 2010 Riesling, 10% off all bottles of BOE wines, and complimentary snacks will also be served. BOE winemaker Alie Shaper and Jen Ferguson will both attend and the reception is open to the public – all are invited.

Brooklyn Oenology’s 2010 Riesling is a supremely refreshing, deliciously complex white which has brought many people back to a classic, off-dry style of Riesling. Residual sugars add perfectly balanced richness punctuated by flavors of crisp apple, pear, peach, jasmine and just a hint of petrol, with a crisp, clean finish of citrus, slate and honey. A classic pairing for Asian cuisine and spicy foods, the light sweetness is a perfect match for BBQ and brunch fare, and can also easily pair with fruit-based desserts.

Jen Ferguson’s work “Friends” is the perfect visual complement for Brooklyn Oenology’s Riesling, and is the only label art ever commissioned by BOE, specifically for the BOE ‘Friend’ Riesling Project for Pet Food Safety. With her whimsical style Ferguson captures the personalities of our animal friends – each one fun, youthful, sweet, mischievous and innocent, very much like the wine it presents. Other work on view by Ferguson will include watercolors of mystical creatures, which are available for purchase through Ferguson’s Art in Chaos studio.
