SANTA MARIA, Calif., Oct. 20, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Miller Family Wine Company is honored to partner with the leading cause-driven global marketplace, Shop for Heroes, to release its limited edition Smashberry Heroes wine, created to commemorate today's generation of heroes, from military service members and wounded warriors to health care workers, teachers and other essential workers making a difference in people's lives.

Smashberry Heroes is a red blend of predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Merlot from Paso Robles, showcasing fruit-forward notes of raspberry and cassis, with a sweet black grape character on the deliciously round finish. Presented in a branded collectible wooden cylinder, the bottle can be personalized and inscribed with a dedication to the hero in one's life, Smashberry Heroes is available for purchase in two, three and six-pack bundles starting at $80. This campaign helps raise money and awareness for CORE (Children of Restaurant Employees), a nationally recognized non-profit founded by industry veterans to provide financial support to service industry families struggling due to a medical crisis, injury or natural disaster.

"We are thrilled to release this limited edition bottling of Smashberry, which was created to not only honor all the heroic people making a real difference, but to also support those in our service industry who may be facing difficulties providing for their children during these challenging times," shares Nicholas Miller, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "We are grateful to have partnered with Shop for Heroes to offer this special wine, and to be able to donate proceeds to support CORE's great cause."

"Working with the entire team at Miller Family Wine Company has been my greatest honor and privilege," says Dominique Dawn, CEO of Shop for Heroes. "Their entire organization is filled with high character individuals who are filled with integrity, and this clearly comes through in the quality of their wine. As a young female entrepreneur, I am lucky to have such an outstanding brand partner, and it gives me great joy to say that anyone can be a hero by buying this wine!"
