LMU is pleased to announce its latest wine release, a 2022 GSM blend from Costa De Oro Winery. This special wine celebrates our new partnership with LMU vintners Gary Burk, P '20, and Teresa Gasca-Burk '83, P '20. It features a custom label designed by Curbside, an LMU student and faculty artwork collective. Every bottle gives back; proceeds from the purchase benefit scholarships for LMU students.
A rich and balanced Central Coast GSM blend, this wine marries Grenache’s lively red fruit, Syrah’s dark spice, and Mourvèdre’s earthy depth for a smooth, full-bodied finish.
50% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 20% Mourvedre
The bottle showcases mural artwork by the Curbside Collective, a team of alumni artists from the LMU Class of 2022 — Jacob Johanson, Jack Alving, and Bobby Sutton — mentored by Macha Suzuki, clinical assistant Professor of Studio Arts at LMU. Created in 2022, the mural celebrates the dynamic interplay that arises when individuals from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and experiences come together to form a shared community of listening, learning, collaboration, and creativity. This vibrant and bold mural, which resides in the William H. Hannon Library media lounge, mirrors the character of the GSM wine blend it adorns.
The full art installation can be seen here.
