This is so exciting! One of our artists is going to be on one of our winemakers labels! Discovered at The Eureka Room 🧡
I'm thrilled to finally announce the artist and artwork selected for our 2025 Rosé label! We received an impressive number of incredible submissions this year, which made the final decision really tough. After careful review, I’m excited to share that the artist for 2025 is Michele Susette Moore, also known as “Emess’em”.
I first discovered Michele’s work on the walls of The Eureka Room in Old Town Cottonwood. I loved it so much that I encouraged her to submit something for the label. She went above and beyond — not only sharing her full portfolio, but actually creating this beautiful bespoke painting just for us.
It’s titled “The Twig” — a subtle and perfect nod to the true meaning of “La Ramita” (the twig or branch in Spanish). I love her strong, well-defined yet fluid lines and her use of bright, friendly colors. At first glance her style reminds me of the animations I enjoyed so much as a kid, but the more you look, the deeper the meaning becomes.
Huge congratulations, Michele (Emess’em)! I’m so proud to feature your work on our 2025 Rosé.
We’ll also be producing a limited run of fine-art prints of “The Twig.” Look for them at our festivals this fall!
