The inspiration for the Besitos Moscato artwork came from summers in my grandmother's kitchen, watching her can fruit, pickles and jams. My grandfather farmed the huge garden, and she "put-up" the produce. I can hear her voice now, hollering at him "I gotta put up all those cherries this weekend!" My grandmother also loved wine, which she categorized into "the sour kind" and "the sweet kind." Well this is the sweet kind, though just barely so. Each bottle of Besitos Moscato, just like each each jar of jam, has lots of love packed into it: Roses, peaches, orange blossom, ginger, and of course some little kisses. . . . Because home is where the heart is.
