Artist Statement About the Piece:
The legendary Napa Valley, with its rolling vineyards and iconic golden hills, serves as the backdrop for a welcoming table set with a glass and treasured bottle of local Cabernet awaiting your arrival. Behind the bottle is a silver vase of native Sage – a nod to the ancient practices of the region’s original settlers who burned the herb in their ceremonies to cleanse the land and welcome good spirits. As you savor the wine, you not only enjoy the fruits of the fertile soil, but also partake in the lineage of land stewardship that embraces the rich heritage of both the old and the new “California Natives.”
Featured wine: Venge Vineyards Bone Ash Cabernet Sauvignon
