ONEHOPE Wine Collaborates with Clayton Kershaw on Exclusive Signature Series
18 Nov 2014 --- ONEHOPE Wine – the popular wine brand that integrates causes and impact into every bottle – announced the launch of their Clayton Kershaw Signature Series varietal.
This exclusive wine program was created to give influencers a platform to be used for a positive purpose. For each Signature Series, ONEHOPE Wine selectively chooses participants who fit their passion and mission to serve a greater good. National League's MVP and winner of the 2014 Cy Young Award, Clayton Kershaw's personal dedication to charitable causes and his commitment to challenging others to find ways to give back, makes him a natural fit for the Signature Series.
"I am thrilled to team up with ONEHOPE to support a cause that is close to my heart – Kershaw's Challenge. Playing for the Los Angeles Dodgers, we wanted to give back to the LA community. With this strong partnership with ONEHOPE and with the help of The Dream Center, we are able to impact many individuals through hunger relief locations, job skills training, transitional housing for homeless families, mobile medical programs and more," Kershaw said.
This exclusive ONEHOPE Napa Valley Signature Red is handcrafted in partnership with winemaker Rob Mondavi, Jr. Dark ruby in color, the 2009 Napa Valley Signature Red Wine fills the palate with flavors of dark berries and cassis, and creme brulee in the toast. Aged in American and French oak, complex layers of spice are balanced by soft tannins and a long, velvety finish. Each bottle has Clayton Kershaw's signature embossed on the front of the bottle. Every 2 bottles provides food for a homeless family in Los Angeles for one day, with the goal of helping 20 families transition to full time housing and employment through Kershaw's Challenge. Each bottle is $60 and available online at ONEHOPE Wine.
"Clayton and Ellen Kershaw feel a deep connection to Los Angeles, so every bottle of Clayton Kershaw's Signature Series will help a family there get back onto their feet," stated Melissa Lake, Executive Director of the ONEHOPE Foundation. "We are proud to support the efforts of Kershaw's Challenge and to make a difference in the city they have made their home."
For each Signature Series, the selected influencers play an integral role in helping to develop the product from start to finish. The end result is a mutual commitment between ONEHOPE and the featured influencer to join together to raise awareness for a great cause through a quality product.
