For decades, Black-owned wine brands have created and produced quality, award-winning wines. I applaud their resilience and growth. As a wine lover, I want to help introduce young and seasoned brands to open-minded consumers nationwide.
Black-owned wine brands and vineyards offer extensive wine collections, so selecting just one to highlight from each brand makes me want to binge shop their entire catalog… Don’t tell my husband! I’ve rounded up a mix of red, white, and sparkling options from some of my favorite Black winemakers, all available to order online from retailers like Drizly. Cheers!
