“Picnic is a blend of red flavors harvested in California. It is a young, full-f lavored and spicy spirit, though at the same time mature and rich with nostalgia.”

— Fred Cline, Propietor

Our Roots Run DeepIn the latter part of the 1800s, Oakley, Contra Costa County was a booming farming community with thousands of acres of orchards and healthy vineyards. Fred Cline’s maternal grandfather, Valeriano Jacuzzi of pump and spa fame, called this place home. On summer visits to his grandparents, Fred learned both the love of agricultural life and the mysteries of vinifying grapes into wine.

These lessons led Fred to obtain a degree in Agriculture Management from U.C. Davis. In 1982, with an inheritance from his grandfather, Fred founded Cline Cellars near Oakley, California. Here, he preserved and restored many ancient vine sites to their rightful reign as premier California wine lands.

In 1991, Fred and his wife Nancy relocated the winery from Oakley to the Carneros region of Sonoma County on a graceful and historic 350-acre estate with new vineyards and facilities.

While much of the cool Carneros region is planted to Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Merlot, Fred pioneered the planting of Rhône varietals including Syrah, Viognier, Marsanne and Roussanne.

Over the years, Fred’s innovation has consistently resulted in some of northern California’s most distinctive Rhône-style wines and intense, flavorful Zinfandels, many of them with 90+ point ratings from Wine Spectator.

Wine & Spirits called our Ancient Vines Mourvèdre “one of the top 100 values,” and in 2011 Robert Parker Jr. wrote in the Wine Advocate, “this is the finest portfolio of value-priced wines from Cline Cellars that I have tasted to date.”

Picnic is a subsidary of Cline Cellars. A family owned and operated winery located in the Carneros wine appellation of Sonoma County, California that specializes in Zinfandels and French Rhône-style wines. Picnic will be sold in supermarkets across the country. It’s the perfect value-priced table wine.

Our logo reflects both our history and passion for tradition. Keep it simple.

Picnic is fixed on a26° angle. Please observe the clear space around the logo to maximize visual effectivenes. While Picnic is x, the space should be 1/5 or .2 times x.

When used on a white background, our logo can be used only on Picnic reds. When it comes to using black and white, our logo is never on complete black, please follow Picnic grays.

If our logo has to be placed on a dark background, the options for the background are also limited by following our reds. A slight drop shadow can be used when Picnic is white.

You may not try to angle it to a straight arrow. That’s an incorrect position.

Remember our logo is fixed on a perfect 26° angle? Not more or less.

Just because we use red it doesn’t mean we use any red. Make sure you folllow our color palette.

Avoid resizing it and shrinking our logo either horizontally or vertically, it’s just bad taste.
