Scott Sandell

After learning that Baron Philippe de Rothschild commissioned an artist to make a painting for the Chateau Mouton label every year, and that the artist was paid in wine, creating exciting paintings for wine labels became a passion for Scott Sandell. Every Roanoke wine has featured an original Scott Sandell painting on the label, and Sandell now serves as our Media and Creative Director. In addition to the labels, Sandell is responsible for the unique Roanoke Vineyards tasting notes, our ad campaigns, public relations, special event design, and can sometimes be found in the Cabernet rows editing vines with Gabby. Sandell's artwork appears in many museums, and hundreds of private and corporate collections including U.S. embassies, and the cavernous spaces of the new IRS Center in Kansas City. His current focus is on large scale installation pieces, and elegant artists' books.
