We believe, wine can be viewed through the same lens as a painting or a sculpture or even a photograph. All are creative expressions. Winemakers are given sun, soil, and grapes but their canvas remains blank until they begin their work of tasting, blending, aging, and so on. The choices made by the winemaker will ultimately determine the character and style of a wine and how we are meant to experience it. It evokes feelings, emotions, and memories when consumed. That\u2019s art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are exploring the intersection of wine and art, by pairing each of our wines with works of art that appear within the walls of the Frank Family tasting room and at Rich and Leslie Frank&#8217;s home on Winston Hill. Featuring artists from around the world, each piece is as unique and interpretive as the wine alongside it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2246\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wine-and-art-the-perfect-pairing\/cabs-3\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?fit=1000%2C1500&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1000,1500\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"cabs\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?fit=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?fit=640%2C960&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?resize=480%2C720&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2246\" width=\"480\" height=\"720\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?resize=683%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 683w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?resize=200%2C300&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?resize=768%2C1152&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.frankfamilyvineyards.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/cabs.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Art Pairing: <\/strong>James Kennedy; Acrylic polymer on incised masonite<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a clear structure in this piece by James Kennedy. His paintings convey a sort of organized chaos. Like a great glass of RHF Cabernet, it\u2019s the form and structure that keeps the beauty of flavor intact. The pale blue and taupe hues of this painting are representative of the duality of fruit and oak in the glass.
