CT -- If you love wine and want to give back take a look at this new company ONEHOPE.
ONEHOPE was founded by eight friends with a lofty vision: to create exceptional products that inspire people to indulge while doing good. They were in their early 20s, passionate enough to work hard and just naive enough to not be scared. They loaded up their cars, hit the streets and started selling the 168 cases of wine they had in a public storage unit.
In 2009, a gentleman named Michael introduced himself at a trade show and wanted to help the team. They later discovered it was Michael Mondavi, of the iconic Mondavi Wine family. His son Rob Mondavi Jr. has been ONEHOPE's primary consulting winemaker ever since.
People may buy the group's wine the first time because of what they stand for, but they continue to come back because the wine is great. The group's commitment to quality wine is as important as their commitment to the causes they support.
They are proud of the impact they’ve been able to make and grateful to their supporters who give them the opportunity to continue. If you have ever purchased ONEHOPE products, or even told their story, you’re part of something bigger than a brand. You’re part of a movement to make giving back part of what you do every day.
