Sipwell Wine Co.

On Saturday, we’re inviting everyone (including you!) to join us in a virtual **Toast to Women** to celebrate International Women’s Day. What we’re most inspired by are the nominations we got for women who deserve a toast- you can read through just a few of them below. These women got a little care package from us, also pictured. Want to join us? For every virtual toast we’re tagged in on social media on Saturday, we’ll donate $10 to National Women's Law Center - who are doing important work fighting to protect laws and policies that directly impact women. 1. Post your toast on social media. 2. Tag us. 3. That’s it! *btw you don’t need to post a can of Sipwell if you don’t have one handy, you just need to honor a woman worth toasting* Hilary Cocalis Allie Mangel

At Sipwell, it’s so gratifying that we can connect with people and create a meaningful impact in our community—over something as simple as a glass of wine. Today and every day, we can honor Dr. King’s legacy by using our platform to take action and inspire change. Here are just a few ways we’ve been able to make a positive impact recently: ?? *Holiday Give-Back* We were able to raise over $500 from online sales to support Feeding America and Feeding San Diego through our December give-back campaign. ?? *In-Kind Donations* We’ve donated wine and our time to support several social impact organizations including Coastal Roots Farm Association of African American Vintners San Diego Habitat for Humanity Stella Foundation Junior Achievement of San Diego County Junior League of San Diego ? *Commitment to DEI and Representation* As a woman-owned and Black-owned wine company, we’re building a business that champions DEI and reflects and supports inclusion at every level. ?? *Sustainable Wine Practices* We’re advocates for sustainability; we use organic grapes and sustainable packaging to protect the planet for future generations. Giving back is more than a one-day effort—it’s at the heart of who we are. What’s one cause you think is worthy of our support in 2025? Tag them below. ??

A note from our founder Hilary Cocalis on Small Business Saturday ??

It’s Women’s Entrepreneurship Day today - so what better time to celebrate the women behind Sipwell? From day 1, we’ve been 100% woman-owned and women-run. And we plan to stay that way. Our mighty team of 2 - our founder Hilary & sales manager Allie - keep things running every day. And we count on so many other women to help: from our consulting winemaker Sherrie, our woman-owned wholesaler, our advisors, vendors, partners and friends - there are a number of amazing women who have contributed mightily to who Sipwell is today. All this to say - we love being a woman-owned business, and we love partnering with other women-owned businesses. If you’re a woman-owned business, or you know one, who we should work with, please leave a comment below, or send us a DM! Cheers, ladies! ???? Hilary Cocalis Allie Mangel

Exciting news for NorCal!! We’re happy to announced that we’ve launched statewide distribution in California, meaning our wines are now available at Northern California retailers for the first time! Just in time too, because this month we launched Tiny Victories into nearly 200 NorCal Safeway stores! You might say we’re *hella* excited for this next chapter in our retail business, and happy to be partnering with our new distributor Monterey Bay Wine Company (also woman-owned!) to make it happen. If you’re in NorCal, look for our wines in your local Safeway or other area retailers - we have a handy store finder here: https://lnkd.in/gajy4Pxk

You can find this one in SoCal stores (in our OG packaging), or head to our website to try the newest release of Rock Steady (in our new packaging!). Thanks, as always, to Wine Enthusiast for helping us change people's minds about canned wine! Cheers ??

?? New look, new(ish) wine! ??? ? Go Getter is back, baby! And with a whole new look too! ? ? We reimagined our chilled red wine this time around - it's a little less fizzy, a lot of great flavor, and made of a kinda crazy blend of organic red and white grapes (mostly Barbera, with some Viognier). AND YES - it's still the perfect pizza wine!? ? ~~~~~~~? Go Getter Chilled Red Wine? A fizzy blend of Barbera and Viognier grapes organically farmed in Paso Robles.? Tastes like ?? ??? Pairs with ????? Serve chilled, obvi!? ~~~~~~~? ? This is the first wine release in our new package design, and over the new few weeks we'll share some more. For now, you'll just have to pick some up to try for yourself! ? ? This wine is available to order now on our website (link in bio) and look for it rolling out to retail stores.
