24th March 2011, 10:07am

Peyton and Byrne’s recently launched Restaurant at the Royal Academy of Arts has announced the arrival of an exclusive collection of wines featuring special edition labels designed by famous artists and Royal Academicians.

Tracey Emin and Gary Hume have collaborated with the restaurant by designing labels for the wines to be sold at the restaurant.

The wines vary in price and have been carefully selected by Peyton and Byrne owner Oliver Peyton and his team to demonstrate quality and value for money.

Emin's design appears on the label of Bordeaux, Graves, France 2009 priced at £36 a bottle whilst Hume has been responsible for creating labels on bottles of Sauvignon & Vermentino, Pays d'Oc, France 2010 and Merlot & Cabernet, Pays d'Oc, France 2009, both priced at £17.50 a bottle.

The renowned artists' contributions will be followed closely by another well known name, Michael Craig-Martin, whose designs will adorn bottles of Bourgogne Blanc Chardonnay Vieilles Vignes, France 2009 in the near future.
