Walla Walla winery Nocking Point Wine has pivoted recently to involve global celebrities and fundraising for the COVID-19 outbreak. Co-founders Andrew Harding and actor Stephen Ammell (the Green Arrow in The CW television series Arrow, and The Flash and Supergirl) heard from celebrity friend Mila Kunis, who reached out to Harding to suggest the creation of a QUARANTINE-themed wine that could be used to raise proceeds for multiple COVID-19 response efforts.
Together with her husband Ashton Kutcher, (the two met as co-stars on the television show That 70s Show) the couple appeared on their verified social media accounts promoting the aid effort.
"We've been finding charities that are focusing on getting PPE into the country, charities that are helping feed kids, businesses that are in distress," Kutcher said.
America's Food Fund, Direct Relief, The Frontline Responders Fund and Give Directly are four of the charities that will benefit.
The wine, a 2018 pinot noir from Oregon, is being sold by Nocking Point Wines at two bottles for $50. As stated on the Nocking Point website, 100 percent of the profits of the sale will support COVID-19 response charities.
