Things Are Hard Right Now: COVID-19 Resources

Things are hard right now.

​We’re in uncharted territory, but we have to think we’ll get through this. Our hearts go out to restaurant workers everywhere and as you may have seen over the past few days, there are lots of ways to help out. Donations; ordering take-out and delivery when available; state and federal initiatives; simply calling to check in on your friends who may be hurting right now - the list goes on. During all of this let’s not forget the retailers and distributors nationwide who are also on the front lines trying to get you the juice you need to carry on. So if you are in a position to, please support all of your local businesses - wine related or not - in any way you can. It will help in more ways than you can know. It won’t be easy, but we’re all in the same boat and must persevere as best we can.

​Here’s to brighter days ahead.
Love,
Selection Massale
