a wine bottle label written for a grey nomad couple by their daughter

VIVIENNE'S RANGE RED

DECEMBER 2004


Trailer Trash is the American translation for Grey Nomad, Australia's geriatric population that have sold their homes and are travelling around Australia shamelessly spending their kid's inheritance. They can be found playing bocchii ball, getting together daily for happy hour, and pedaling home made wares in caravan parks throughout Australia.

Arthur and Vivienne Ray are the driving force behind the Chateau Trailer Trash label. For over one year, Arthur and Vivienne have been boldly going nowhere and have travelled 290 km from Brisbane visiting two exotic destinations, Hervey Bay and Burrum Heads, searching for bottle shops that stock cheap cask wine produced in premium months.

Ever in search of the perfect drop, they have created the distinctive December 2004 wine which they made in the toilet of Arthur and Vivienne's caravan and matured in the plastic washtub with the dirty laundry. Its complex, unusual bouquet exhibits a delicate mix of toxic chemicals and dangerous additives and may contain traces of grapes, clothing, and the odd bead

So relax, check your insurance policy, open a bottle, and enjoy the unique experience of Chateau Trailer Trash, or give it away to someone you dislike.
