I have gotten a number of inquiries about the wine labels I was commissioned to paint for Frances Mayes' Tuscan Sun Wines,  and when the wines would be available for purchase. Well my sources (namely Twitter) tell me that the first big launch will be in Cortona Italy this week on July 4th.  It is exciting for me  to see the art finally realized on the wine bottles for which they were intended.

It will be even more exciting to see (and taste) the wines in person; but we here in the U.S. will have to wait for that. The U.S. launch is slated for some time in the fall.
