Check Out Our Friends At Ownroot Collective!

We're pretty excited to announce a partnership with an awesome company that celebrates some of the same things we do: support for local businesses, a deep appreciation for awesome, quality-made wines, and a general distain for wines and/or wineries that are too pretentious for their own good (you know who you are).

So, who and what is Ownroot Collective exactly? In a nutshell, they shine a spotlight on small, mostly unknown wine producers in the industry in an effort to share their goods with a wider audience. The wine industry is highly competitive and a lot of boutique brands will never be on the shelf of a major grocery chain or have a review in a hoity-toity wine publication. For us a Ricci, we prefer it that way. However, it doesn't hurt to have more people know about you. Ownroot Collective works with the families, growers, winemakers and others in the industry that make their own wine purely out of passion and love for what they do. Essentially, when you signup to be part of the Ownroot Collective, you are paying for access to this very rare, normally-never-get-distributed-beyond inner-circle type wines. Here is how it works:

A partnership to cheers to!
• Ownroot Collective provides a unique wine membership offering two introductions per month from entrepreneurial winemakers who are committed to the pursuit of producing their own wine brands while they work day jobs in the wine industry. The fee is broken down either by month or on an annual basis.

• For each offering, you have an option to buy the wines being featured but are not obligated in any way. Members of the Ownroot Collective community receive heavily subsidized shipping rates of $10 for 1-6 bottles and $20 for 7-12 bottles.
​
• Ownroot Collective partners with each winemaker to offer virtual tastings for members who participate in the offer, forging new relationships and meaningful connections to the wines they are drinking. After the Ownroot Collective offer has expired, as a member you can still repurchase these great, boutique wines directly from the producer.

We are extremely excited to be working with such great folks like the ones  found at Ownroot Collective. One of the benefits of being a small wine brand like Ricci Vineyards is that we get to pick and choose the people we want to associate with and we aren't forced to have business dealings with those we don't want to. Ownroot Collective is unequivocally in it for the small business owner and the consumer, so if you love drinking great wine and want to help out the small guy(s), we highly encourage you to check them out by clicking here. Be prepared to be wowed with the crazy good wine you're about to discover!
