"grantLOVE + J Vineyards = Love Wine, In Support Of Women Artists"--LOVE Wine in Forbes

"The collaboration amplifies marginalized voices in the context of community, bringing together female-identified creatives around shared values."

"From the early days of this work, Grant knew she wanted to find a woman-led vineyard to collaborate with her and visual artists interested in the same conversation: how to support the curiosity and creativity of others. Enter J Vineyards’ Estate Director and Head Winemaker, Nicole Hitchcock, who climbed the formidable Gallo ladder all the way to the top. Hitchcock is one of the best winemakers in the U.S., (Grant calls her a “sparkling savant”), and her legendary sparkling wine can compete with the best bottles out of Champagne. Together, the two women have created LOVE Wine — each new bottling will have a label designed by a woman-identified artist as a gesture of transforming the simple act of enjoying wine into an experience that immerses people in the culture of both art and wine. The label for the inaugural release, a brut cuvée whose blend was chosen by Hitchcock and Grant, was designed by Genevieve Gaignard, a biracial multidisciplinary artist whose work speaks to class, race, and cultural identity."
