La Cave Warehouse, Wine Extras, Wine Arts


The world of wine has always been closely linked to the world of art, and so as we. For many years we have been collecting wine related art production and historical wine objects that are shown at La Cave Warehouse.

We cordially invite you to come visit us and to take a look at Wine & Arts at La Cave Warehouse

Among them we would like to present you some of our wine paintings and photographies.

Château Mouton Rothschild Labels

Baron Philippe de Rothschild came up with the idea of having each year's label designed by a famous artist of the day. In 1946, this became a permanent and significant aspect of the Mouton image with labels created by some of the world's great painters and sculptors. The only exception to date is the unusual gold-enamel 2000 bottle.
To celebrate the hundredth birthday of the acquisition of Château Mouton, the portrait of Baron Nathaniel de Rothschild appeared on the 1953 label. In 1977, England's Queen Elizabeth II and the Queen Mother visited the château and a special label was designed to commemorate the visit.

Twice in the history of their special labels, there have been two used for the same year. The first occurred in 1978 when Montreal artist Jean-Paul Riopelle submitted two designs. Baron Philippe de Rothschild liked them equally so he split the production run and used both designs. The 1993 Mouton label, a pencil drawing of a nude reclining nymphet by the French painter Balthus was rejected for use in the United States by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. As such, for the U.S. market the label was made with a blank space where the image should have been and both versions are sought after by collectors. *Château Mouton-Rothschild poster (dry-mounted) $250*

Champagne Massé "La Bonne Bouteille"

	The prolific poster artist Marcellin Auzolle (1862 – 1942) created this French vintage poster c. 1920 for the Maison de Champagne Massé. It has an incandescent glow that highlights the bottle of champagne, or "the good bottle." It was printed originally by Imprimerie Maus, Delhalle & Urban, 93 rue Pelleport in Paris, France. *Champagne Massé poster $225*
