NumbSkull started within the Mark Ryan family of wines with the 2014 vintage. Mark wanted to explore vineyards in Walla Walla and create wines representative of the valley. He continued to explore other AVA’s and sites as the NumbSkull labels expanded.
The NumbSkull label is a collaboration with the talented Cherylin Andre, who utilized her method 'flame painting' with scorch marks and soot to create the label artwork.
