Wine and art always go hand in hand and are often inspirational for each other. It’s not uncommon for different industries to crossover to break barriers, to create something unique and collectible. So as wine. Watson’s Wine has collaborated with a local contemporary artist and fashion illustrator Mickco Chan to design a special collection of limited edition box sets “BRING IT ON”.
Presenting ‘BRING IT ON’, we hope to remind people to take a step back and savour different moments in our everyday lives; to be able to take on any new challenges and adventures, especially with a positive outlook; and to bring on art and wine together, and new tasting experiences to our customers. The whole collection consists of a total of four seasons showcasing different designs with Mickco’s signature illustrations. Limited to 1,000 units only per season, the collection is truly one-of-a-kind and an exclusive piece.
Watson’s Wine x Mickco Season 1 “CURIOSITY”
The first season “CURIOSITY” contains two bottles of wine specially selected by the Watson’s Wine team, and a blind tasting kit (including 2 blind tasting bags, 2 Riedel glasses and 3 wine charms) designed by Mickco. This giftset is perfect for anyone who is full of curiosity and loves wine. It is sure to delight and inspire you to explore the beauty of wine. You will have everything you need to enjoy a fantastic tasting experience without any pre-conceptions.
As a well-established local brand with deep roots in Hong Kong, the limited collection showcases local elements that are reflected through Mickco’s designs, from the traditional tile patterns to Mickco’s iconic quirky illustration. For this collaboration, Mickco has specially crafted two featured characters, who are seen to be enjoying a glass of wine at a Watson’s Wine store, just like how the surprise gifts included in the set hope to bring friends and family together to enjoy and sample their moments together.
Watson’s Wine x Mickco Season 2 “WELLNESS”
Dubbed “Wellness”, the gift set features 2 biodynamics wines, and a table tennis set specially designed by Mickco.
Set A includes 2 bottles of Felton Road Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2021: As a biodynamic pioneer in Central Otago, New Zealand, Felton Road gives their wines a unique expression of terroir through minimal intervention approach to winemaking, and was ranked #4 in The Real Review’s “Top Wineries of New Zealand 2020”.
Set B includes 2 bottles of Giscours Margaux 3eme Cru 2019: Third Growth chateau Giscours from the Margaux appellation of Bordeaux, on the other hand, constantly expresses elegance and dense structure through its wines since 19th century, also actively expands the use of biodynamic farming methods in respect for the nature.
Mickco has given the table tennis bats a new look in bold colours, with his iconic quirky illustration at the front and the nostalgic Hong Kong window-frame inspired design at the back, transforming the ordinary sets into stylish workout gear and collectible art that embellishes a home.
