We like the idea of a wine barrel as a symbol with "Le Caveau" written in a traditional (old-world) lettering or script across the barrel. Also, like "Est. 2010" at the top of the barrel above the name and "fine wines" at the bottom of the barrel below the store name. Perhaps an old school wine bottle with the same concept would be interesting to see as well.

    Could you try #64 with the original font from #50 for Le Caveau and fine wines. Additionally, could the flourishes on either side of fine wines be simplified on #64? Could the arcs showing depth of the wine cave be lightened and perhaps some detail be added to the image on #64 as well and perhaps lighten the color a little towards deep red?

    Also, #59 is much better with the simplified coloring...but I like brown and dark red instead of dark red and gray...perhaps try this coloring with the layout mentioned in the comment below.

    We love the barrel aspect of #49 but are trying to make the logo less difficult to turn into signage and other promotional items. Please try using the barrel on the left side, but remove the banner and put Le Caveau on one line and fine wines on the second line but smaller font to the right of the barrel in a general horozontal rectangle format. Also, try to keep with a solid color lettering...maybe "Le Caveau fine wines" in dark red or a similar color of the banner...grapes could be that same color. I like the brown wood grain look to the barrel like it is.

    I Like #49,50 but I talked to a branding expert and these were some of his comments: -if you want to make a shirt, or letterhead a 2 color logo is very powerful ( keeping your type from always being inset is very flexible as well -you also want to think about signage, and a horizontal layout for product labels, letterhead, etc -since you're going to have a retail location you need to quickly convey to drivers that you are a fine wine shop - #50 is probably the cleanest traditional 'logo' for multipurpose ,not too thrilled with font, however I like the fact it has alternating letter heights which gives a visual pattern vs. actual text -Re: #49 all the designs could be taken down to a more simplistic form all of it, the grapes are gradient, and the text is gradient you have to blend colors to get that effect you can always simplify a more complex logo if you like the overall feel so if you like #49, you can identify the elements you like and think about how they can be used by themselves, or as two colors

    I think we are going to extend this contest, I would like to see #50 with a different style lettering.

    I think the lettering on #38 comes the closest to flowing well across the banner.

    #34 is almost perfect. I think the LE are a bit bigger than CAVEAU...if we can size them down a tiny bit the words will flow in nicely across the banner.

    We think #22 is our favorite, but it seems that L on the banner is a bit crooked...if that is straightened out I think it might be the winner.

    in #17 & #8 I am wondering if it would be possible to lighten up the barrel a bit and put in some barrel lines. Also leave #17 & 8 in place to compare.

    The addition of the banner in #17 works well. I'd like to see #6 & #1 in a more traditional script. #3 would be better if Caveau was bigger than Le or at leaqst the same size.

    By the way the reward for this project is supposed to be $400. My wife had some problems upgrading the award last night and is working with the support team to get it fixed. We are sorry, but it ran the upgrade twice for some reason.

    I also like #11 but without the black baground just the logo itself.

    We really like #8. I would like to see #3,4 without the top/bottom color bars.
