Forbidden Fruit Winery 1968 Vintage Men’s T-Shirt

---

Sonoma’s Forbidden Fruit Winery opened its doors in 1968 and got right to work producing what would become some of the best small-batch wines to ever come out of California. As a well to do young woman and aspiring vintner, the reclusive founder leveraged her family’s well-established estate roots in the valley to get ahold of some of the highly sought-after old vine Zinfandel, as well as Sauvignon Blanc, and even some of the rare cool-climate Syrah varietals and made true magic with them. Produced in very limited numbers, Forbidden Fruit’s wines quickly became prized by collectors and enthusiasts alike, with every bottle being a celebration of the Russian River Valley appellation. Sadly, a little over two decades later, the reclusive as ever woman behind Forbidden Fruit lost interest and abruptly closed up shop, taking her magical recipes for success with her.

Like all our designs, this one is treated with our signature ‘relic-ing’ process which includes our own secret recipe of hand-painted chipping, cracking, fading, and just the right touch of yellowing to ensure that it looks the part of a true vintage imprint.** We lay these works of art down on premium Bella+Canvas 3001 Unisex Jersey Short Sleeve Tees, one of the softest, best-wearing t-shirts available today, via state of the art direct to garment (DTG) printing which allows us to create a vintage effect that simply can’t be accomplished with other printing methods. In short, these shirts are everything you’ve dreamed of and more – it feels soft and lightweight with just the right amount of stretch making it comfortable and flattering for both men and women.

Not sure what size is your best fit? We recommend taking one of your current t-shirts, laying it flat and measuring it. The measurements in the chart below are taken with the shirt laying on a flat surface. To get the length, measure from the high shoulder point down to the bottom of the shirt. To get the width, measure approximately 1-inch below the armhole, across the chest, from seam to seam. While our tees are all made using premium, pre-shrunk, ring-spun cotton, there can be some shrinkage depending on your personal wash and dry cycles. With that said, if you’re on the fence, we always suggest going up a size.

 

 

All sizes are provided in inches!
