ELEVATING AND CELEBRATING WOMEN Teneral Cellars elevates women at all levels of their business, from the actual winemaking to marketing and sales. Through their Swarm Wine Club, they do quarterly releases themed around women’s empowerment and hire different female artists to create the labels and showcase their talent.

“THIS WINE COLLECTION REFLECTS THE SIMPLE HUMAN TRUTH THAT LOVING ANOTHER PERSON IS A WONDERFUL THING. LOVE IS TO BE ACCEPTED, APPRECIATED, CELEBRATED, AND PROTECTED”

“I have an amazing advisory board of incredible women who support the growth and mission of Teneral Cellars and who advise me. We want to lead with intention, purpose, and passion, and surrounding myself with a successful diverse group of women from all backgrounds will only make us better. Having a diversity of thoughts and experiences represented on the advisory board will help us better represent all women,” Osur says. Their most recent release is “In Her Shoes,” a collection of wines celebrating the unique life paths women have taken and honoring the women from the past who have blazed a trail of change. This collection includes the Lioness Cuvee, a Rise Pinot Gris, and a Joyful Warrior Zinfandel. “Our gorgeous RISE Pinot Gris label was created by Filipina-American artist Dev Heyrana and features a woman in her power, sunkissed and adorned by dahlias and sampaguita flowers. This bottle celebrates the Filipina and Mexican women who played an important part in weaving the fabric of California’s farmlands. In addition, we honor Dolores Huerta, an American

labor leader and Civil Rights Activist who worked alongside Cesar Chavez prior to and during the Delano Grape Strike. The strike and the banding together of farm workers eventually evolved into the formation of the United Farm Workers Union,” Osur explains in Teneral’s blog.
