organization dedicated to boldly pushing the wine, beer and spirits industry toward a
more diverse, equitable and inclusive era that empowers all to succeed.

We are the springboard for action, the connection to the brave collective.

Our Pledge

We are the inventors, curators and storytellers,
the ones who know, skill is nothing without soul,
and hard work is nothing without heart.

We are the unapologetic leaders
creating waves,
giving a whole new meaning to the phrase,
“ladies first.”

Because it’s our turn.
To lead with the lionhearted,
to create with the unafraid,
to share our story.

This is our becoming,
the ripples of our rising,
this is our place.

Where our individuality is celebrated, and
our community is strengthened.
This is where our grace meets our grit and
our poise meets our power.

We are co-creators.
We are change-makers.
We are Women of the Vine & Spirits.

Beverage Industry, Worldwide

Visibility of women in traditionally male-dominated roles and industries cannot be underestimated.

The Women of the Vine & Spirits C-Suite honors and recognizes leaders that are change-makers, co-creators and curators
in the wine, beer, and spirits industry.

These women have earned their place at the top as forward-thinkers, disruptors, innovators and icons using their voice and position to elevate others into leadership roles.
