HER Wine is the brainchild of owner and founder Nicole Anderson. Nicole’s love for wine has grown over the years. As a young millennial, she always searched for brands that resonated with her and her friends. “I remember walking up and down the aisles in a store staring at the labels but never feeling drawn to anything” Nicole reflects. Her appreciation for wine grew as she decided one day to craft her own wine from home. After several trials and errors, she began to dabble in flavored wine and shared her creations with friends and family. As a marketer by trade with 10+ years under her belt, Nicole’s wheels began to spin on how she could finally develop a brand that represents each experience where women find pleasure and tranquility in a bottle of wine. Thus the creation of HER Wine was born.
