Kenny Likitprakong

Kenny Likitprakong is becoming a Californian wine making legend, utilising all organic fruit from parcels up and down the surf coast of California. In his urban winery in Santa Rosa near San Fran, he makes a galaxy of wines under a number of wine labels. Not bad for a former skater punk that was once sleeping rough on beaches (hence the name of his first label: HOBO wine company). The wines are buzzy and energetic, made without chemicals or intervention. The varieties and blends range from straight forward to off the wall. The label art is striking (directed by the former head of art for SUBPOP records). The names are bananas. The wines are incredible. HERE.
