PUPPY LOVE.

More Than Love.

 

When you see a puppy, your heart melts. Without fail, we are drawn in and experience the same feeling of being a kid again. The joy that dogs bring into our lives is unparalleled. They are our constant companions, our best and most loyal friends. Their love for us is truly unconditional and they want nothing but to make us happy. 

 

PUPPY LOVE wine speaks to the child in all of us. The bold yet refined notes of our varietals remind us of that warm and fuzzy feeling like when we experience love for the first time. The PUPPY LOVE brand will give back to the ones who have brought so much joy into our lives. A percentage of the proceeds from all of the sales will go to no-kill shelters, and towards medications for animals without any other benefactor options.
