La [email protected] <br>http:www.la-colline. Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 I need some help I have a small vineyard in the Dordogne and to have a bit of fun and to Celebrate the Chinese year of the cock we ran a competition to win 10 magnums of the finest wine ever made at La Colline. The participants had to send in a photo of the best-looking women they knew wearing a La Colline tee shirt. The winner of the competition was supposed to be announced with the photo in question a while ago now but I just cant make up my mind, so what are your votes?To check out the contenders please go to :http://www.la-colline.com/entries.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caterham7 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 If you want a girlie calender definately Miss 1 by stuart cook.If you don't want to be accused of being a male chauvanist pig go for the more artistic 'rear view holding bottle' by Sprank SMe,I'd go for Miss 1,no prizes for quessing what I am !

Viv Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 "If you want a girlie calender definately Miss 1 by stuart cook" Yes, I can see the appeal for you blokes but I thought she was supposed to be wearing the tee shirt But it is a good one .

Eslier Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 "Miss 2" is the best photo and less likely to be condidered "girlie" as Miss 1 ! Miss 2 is a great photo that makes it plain what is being promoted, but more than that, it's not just the wine it is promoting but a whole lifestyle. As an advertisement shot it might sell the product as not just a wine, but a means of snatching you off to a perfect location in another world.I quite liked "Sheryl" initially as the writing on the t-shirt is clear but it looks like it has been "photoshopped" and I would say the head doesn't belong to the body!For the fun factor, the dog made me laugh.Sorry - hope I'm not taking this too seriously !

Simon Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Never mind the T-Shirts Charles, is any of that divine Confit de La Colline still around for sale at the Chateau; if so when are you open in December?RegardsSimon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patmobile Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 I'm a Miss 3 kind of guy. The tee shirt is visible but does not overwhelm the pack shot (branded product in the foreground). Good composition and focus.She looks nice too!Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renaud Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 If you want an eyecatching poster image, Miss 1 should win. I guess you will get not a few of the gentlemen around when she comes to receive her prize.Now if the dog in the t-shirt was a lurcher... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0The Plan ManAll the best,<br><br>StewartddMMyyyy0Falseen-USAll the best,<br><br>StewartTrue Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 It's a tricky one - is to be number one or three?? Both excellent in their composition, artistic flair, eye-catching interest, taste etc etc. Now, who was that photographer...!PS Charles - good job you're better at making wine than you are writing URLs - http://www.la-colline.com every time...

just-so-french<P>Kind regards,<P><P>Michelle<P><P>http:www.g Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Charles,Oh dear, oh dear!!!! I would go for Miss 1 or Miss 2 (she also seems to be getting labelled Miss 3 as well) but then I am most certainly, absolutely biased!!!! I am the wife (no not the model) of the photographer of Miss 1 and 2.At the time he was taking the photos of yes...our babysitter!!! (who is 18 and had her mum with her I should add)....I was there but I was hard at work doing the gite changeover....many of you will know the scenario, 5 bedrooms all with en-suites, guests leave at 10.30am, new ones in at 4.00pm...the place has to be gleaming, the temperature is hitting 40 on the roof terrace or around the pool and you have got your head down a loo scrubbing like mad and wondering whether this new life in France is all that it is cracked up to be. Before all you feminists start asking am I mad and getting very irate...there is reason in my madness. The catch is that our model gets half the wine and it is I (not my husband) who gets the remainder. Having had a bottle of the Carmine before.....All Charles' wine is good but the Carmine is worth the photoshoot believe me. And my skiving husband........well he gets to keep his memories - and believe me I will never let him forget .....I have many more jobs for him to be doing to make up for that sunny afternoon!!! So please go for the Miss 1.....in the name of Art!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
