Napa, CA –April 2016: Olive and Poppy, an online collection of wine country-inspired goods, and Paper Planes Wine, boutique producer of a single Russian River Valley rosé, announce a summertime collaboration for the most dedicated of rosé enthusiasts. A stylish canvas wine tote, carrying a bottle of coveted 2015 Paper Planes’ Rosé, is the chicest way to adorn this pale pink beauty.

Reflecting the quality and creativity that Olive and Poppy has come to be known, the Rosé Wine Tote is made from heavy-weight canvas with copper rivets and genuine rose gold leather handles. The marrying of minimalist design and a pop of modern color make for the ultimate rosé statement. The exterior of the bag reads, “Rosé isn’t an afterthought—It’s our only thought,” summarizing the belief that drove partners Kyle Gabriel and Laura Maguire to found Paper Planes, the only winery in Sonoma County to exclusively produce rosé. Now on their second vintage, Paper Planes focuses on producing one single wine—a crisp, vibrant rosé of Pinot Noir from the Russian River Valley.
“We bonded with Laura and Kyle over our mutual fanaticism for all things rosé. We’re such fans of what they do—we wanted to find a way to work together, create something both useful and beautiful, and do something meaningful at the same time,” says Olive and Poppy designer, Anne Siegel.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Anne and Nicole on this exclusive wine tote that brings Paper Planes to life in a whole new way. Olive and Poppy’s mission aligns perfectly with ours: to create thoughtfully sourced products to enjoy with friends,” says Paper Planes co-founder, Laura Maguire.
On sale May 16th via the Paper Planes website (paperplaneswine.com), the Rosé Wine Tote will retail for $48 including the tote and one bottle of the sought after Paper Planes’ Rosé. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the tote benefit the Feast it Forward Foundation, the charitable arm of Feast it Forward, an online network and lifestyle brand based in Napa Valley.
