克雷格•斯坦斯伯勒和马克•斯莱德于2006年白手起家，两位好兄弟遇上后一拍即合，一个是大型酿酒厂的首席酿酒师，另一个对葡萄酒充满热情，于是不可避免地，就创办了Purple Hands神来之手葡萄酒品牌。
Craig Stansborough and Mark Slade started Purple Hands in 2006 from humble beginnings. When two good mates get together, one the Chief Winemaker with a major winery, the other with a passion for wine – the inevitable had to happen and Purple Hands Wines was created.
凡是做过红酒的人都知道一双染着紫色的手是什么样子的!
红葡萄酒酿酒师的手在酿造过程中会因为不断接触葡萄皮和葡萄汁而浸染成紫色。当然，当酿酒师很忙的时候，他们会用衬衫擦擦手。
这就是《Purple Hands》葡萄酒的灵感来源。
我们在花园里试验了一些白色t恤，一些红酒和一些有趣的东西。然后留给设计师来将我们的概念转化为我们的标志。
Anyone who has made red wine will know what a pair of purple stained hands looks like!
A red winemakers’ hands become stained purple during vintage due to the constant contact with grape skins and the juice. And of course when winemakers are busy, they wipe their hands on their shirt.
That was the inspiration behind Purple Hands Wines.
We experimented with some white t-shirts, some red wine and some fun in the garden. The rest was left to the label designer to translate our concept to the label.
