Cactus Garden

Grassini Family Vineyards
2015 Equipo Red Blend

Inspired next to the Agave painting from a trip to Scottsdale, the Cactus Garden was the first original ever sold by Danielle Renee. The buyer, who appropriately was a member of Grassini's wine club, was thrilled. This wine turned lovely plum tones as it aged and settled on the paper. 

Made with wine with black ink and watercolor accents

Each wine is different and oxidizes at a different pace. Each painting is photographed after the painting is complete to capture their true colors before they start changing. A painting will continue to change colors over time as it continues to oxidize, this makes it a living & breathing piece of art. 

A wide range of colors can be extracted from wine depending on the processing or painting methods used. Either straight from the bottle, fermented in a container or evaporated sludge from an open container, wine painting can be very complex or very simple.
