Hope WineHope Wine, a product line consisting of coastal California Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, which are all produced and bottled in Sonoma County, has donated $10,000 in cash and over $30,000 in wine to charities in its first year.

Eight young professionals, all under the age of thirty, came together to create and establish this line to spread awareness and raise funds for various charities that have personally been effected by.

Chardonnay is partnered with the Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation, supporting breast cancer, Merlot is partnered with AIDS/Lifecycle, supporting AIDS awareness and Cabernet Sauvignon is partnered with ACT TODAY! supporting autism.
