A big 30 in deep red glass stands on a terrace above rows of vines, wrapped in grapevines with bunches of dark grapes, and Vineyard Days runs across a cream ribbon beneath it. The lines sit on aged paper with vines in the margins: come raise a glass to, the name in a wine-colored script, then the date and the place.
It is drawn for a wine country thirtieth: an afternoon at a vineyard with a tasting and a long lunch, a backyard dinner with a cheese board and bottles down the table, or a weekend trip with friends to a cabin among the vines. Late summer or early fall, when the grapes are in, is its natural season.
Type in the name, the day and the terrace, and send it along. The vines do the decorating, so whatever you write with it can be a single line.
