Hi Jason~

I tried Pancake Cellar’s Big Day White at the beginning of the summer and absolutely fell in love with the taste (and the label). I LOVE it!! Problem is, had I known I was going to love it so much, I would have purchased the whole shipment for myself. Turns out my local Trader Joe’s is having issues getting any more of this fabulous wine. I keep checking and I have added my name to the list of Big Day White fans for Trader Joe’s to call when it is finally shipped but I’m starting to lose hope. Can you……since you are the expert…..recommend any other label that would be anywhere close to the blend that makes up this fine tasting wine?
Thanks in advance!!

They’ve discontinued it at the Trader Joe’s here in North Carolina. I can’t find any info about this wine online. Does anyone know if it’s still available anywhere?

2009 Big Day White

27% Chard, 24% Sauv Blanc, 24% Viognier, 21% Miscat Canelli, 4% Pinot Blanc.

Good fragrance & lots of flavor, a little green, but nonetheless a terrific buy for $4.99 at TJ.

I’m going back for a case.

The 09 version of this wine just showed up at my Trader Joe’s in Southern California. I’m looking forward to trying it.

@Laurie okay finally got to the bottom of this one. The artist was Gene Ploss.

Thank you Jason! I’m not exactly sure this tells me who the artist is but it’s still good information. (I mean — I assume this Proof Wine Marketing is a marketing company and not the people/person/company who actually did the artwork). Anyway, I thought the artwork was so interesting and will keep my eye on that website. Waiting for the right occasion to try the wine. I’m in Western NY where 6 months of snow is not uncommon, so the wine tasting occasion may simply be the result of being snowbound and unable to resist trying something new! Thanks again!

@Laurie I tracked it down! Proof Wine Marketing (pdf) seems to be the artist responsible for this label...

@denny The ’08 never showed up in northern California. How was it?

@Laurie It isn’t typical for a label artist to get credit on the bottle. Perhaps too many artists in the kitchen. That said in this case I thought I crossed paths with the individual somehow. Did some searching tonight and can’t seem to recollect how. If I do I will certainly share the info!
