Can seven barrels of wine change the Oregon wine industry? Seven local wineries hope their One Barrel Challenge starts a conversation about accessibility and inclusivity to answer that question.
The One Barrel Challenge is seven wineries, each selling a barrel’s worth of wine for an important cause: diversity. The wineries plan on using the money to make their industry more accessible to people of all colors, races and creeds. Their efforts could generate over $100,000, with 100% of the proceeds going to the Maurice Lucas Foundation.
