The founders saw firsthand just how much impact a bottle of wine can have. They began hosting wine tastings to raise money for important causes and encouraged and inspired others to do the same. Today, ONEHOPE is one of the largest direct-to-consumer wineries in the world and has proudly donated over $8 million to local and global causes.

ONEHOPE’s award-winning wines are made from the finest grapes sourced from world-renowned winemaking regions. Their commitment to quality is as strong as their commitment to the causes they support.
