A More Diverse Wine Industry Starts With You

WELCOME. ELEVATE. AMPLIFY.

Join us as we celebrate diversity in the wine industry.

Wine Unify was founded on the belief that education is the cornerstone to progress in any field. Yet many ethnic and racial minorities experience significant barriers to entry - be it financial, mentorship, or a general feeling of exclusion. We seek to change that by fostering wine education for underrepresented minority groups, and amplifying the voices of the people of color who are already thriving within the wine industry. We do this by way of outreach, awards, and education, as well as various other elements within our initiatives. Join us!

Our Initiatives

Wine Unify began with several goals - to welcome, elevate, and amplify the voices of non-white, underrepresented minorities in the wine industry. Part of our mission is carried out by way of Wine Unify’s Educational Award Program, which provides award opportunities for minority groups interested in or working in wine.
