Clos de la Tech Wine with “Chip Art.”

By Alex in Art, Food & Drink on Sep 1, 2006 at 2:03 pm

Clos de la Tech (Klō deh lah Tĕk, for you Philistines) takes a page from the practice of Chateau Mouton Rothschild, which puts a piece of art on its bottle – except, Clos de la Tech chooses to put "chip art":

We decided to put “chip art” on our bottle—in the case of the 2000, two real silicon memory chips with 107 million transistors on them embedded in sealing wax. Each year, we honor Cypress Semiconductor’s most successful chip that way.

    It is not normally my habit to point out the spelling and grammatical errors in blogs (especially those that I enjoy), but because you misspelled “Philistine,” a word meaning a person disdainful of intellectual values, or a person uninformed in a particular area, I felt I had a special exemption.

    Sorry!

    Thanks David – what an embarrassing typo. :0
