2023 Promotions and Updates:


Community Wine Bar is NOW Open:

Friends! We are SO excited to announce that we now have a brick and mortar location where you can taste the RAM Cellars and VIV label wines! We’ve opened a spot called Community Wine Bar in SW Portland (at 614 SW Dakota Street, Portland, OR, 97239) that’s a combined tasting room with our dear friend Cristina at Gonzales Wine Company. Community Wine Bar features our wines and Cristina’s Gonzales Wine Company wines and offers 3 and 6 wine tasting flights, small bites that pair perfectly with both wineries, and wine by the bottle and glass. Down the line, we’ll also partner with other women, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ led winemakers to showcase their wines via a monthly pop-up series starting in the spring of 2024 as well as a future guest flight series!

Winter 2023 Tasting Club sessions:

We’re proud to share the next round of our RAM Cellars Tasting Club with you! Here’s the deets - we put together three 250ml bottles of wine and get them your way, with tasting notes, including stories from Viv. Then we all taste the wines together and talk about wine, the winery, and life, the universe, and everything. The Tasting Club sessions are $45, $40 for our tasting club members (sign up HERE to receive your discount code, or email vivianne@ramcellars.com), and $35 for our wine club members! We’ll have two tasting club sessions available in November - dates TBD and coming soon - and look forward to seeing you then! Each Tasting Club ticket sold results in a $3 donation to one of the partner organizations we raise money for with our VIV label. For our Winter 2023 quarterly tasting sessions, each ticket will raise $3 for the Trans Lifeline as part of our commitment to raise funds for organizations who provide support to queer and transgender people. Get your Winter 2023 session Tasting Club tickets soon!

Free greater-Portland area delivery & local pickup:

As always, we offer free delivery in and around the greater Portland Metro area! Place your order online and select the ‘free delivery’ shipping option when providing an Oregon or Washington address within 40 miles of Portland! We’ll deliver the same week, typically the next day - Viv or Aidan will reach out to coordinate a time to get the wine your way and then we’ll bring the wine to your doorstep! Thank you, as always, for your support!

And now! You can ALSO pick up your order at our new tasting room space - which is a joint project with Gonzales Wine Company - Community Wine Bar! Select ‘local pickup at Community Wine Bar’ at checkout and we’ll get your order ready for pickup and email you when it’s ready. You can then pick up your order during CWB’s open hours each week. Community Wine Bar is open from 1pm-6pm on Thursdays, 1pm-8pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and then 1pm-6pm on Sundays!


And, of course, don’t forget:

Every bottle of our Viv label wine sold results in a $3 donation to the Trans Lifeline (for our VIV label 2022 ‘Almost Red’) or a $3 donation to the Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund (for our VIV label 2022 Lumiere Rose) in an effort to give back to and support communities that our winery team is a part of. We’re excited to release more new wines under our VIV label over the course of 2023 and can’t wait to share them with you very soon!
