The Challenge:

Design and fabricate a statement entrance piece for Fletcher Bay Winery vineyard utilizing a 500-liter French wine barrel and a 1923 Model-TT Truck.

The Solution:

Seeing an opportunity to extend Fletcher Bay Winery’s branding statement, Blackmouth pitched the idea to create a versatile mobile statement piece instead of a stationary element. By enclosing the Model TT cab with a branded oak roof, cladding the interior seat and back with burgundy, laser etched, velvet fabric, and adding a custom oak flatbed to house the 500-liter French barrel, a traveling branding statement was created. The Model TT can be used at the vineyard, parked at their tasting rooms or events, and driven around locally to remind neighbors and visitors alike of their wines.
