Remy Saves the Sea is made by 11-year-old surfer and nature-loving Remy, with her dad, Noah Dorrance. Our goal is to raise both money and awareness for issues surrounding the health of our oceans and thus our planet as a whole. We are proud to have recently joined 1% For the Planet to help fund this work. Our beneficiary is The 5 Gyres Institute.

The 5 Gyres Institute is a leader in the global movement against plastic pollution with nearly 15 years of expertise in scientific research, engagement, and education. Since 2009, the team has completed 19 expeditions, bringing more than 300 citizen scientists, corporate executives, brands, and celebrities to the gyres, lakes, and rivers to conduct firsthand research on plastic pollution. 5 Gyres continues to lead with scientific research to drive upstream solutions through education, advocacy, and community building. 

This year’s Remy Saves the Sea Rosé is an unlikely but delicious blend of Grenache, Malbec and a dash of Chenin Blanc. All of the fruit comes from sustainably farmed vineyards. The two red grapes were whole cluster crushed like we normally would do for our rosés and fermented in stainless steel, at cool temperatures to preserve freshness and aromatic lift. The Chenin Blanc was also fermented in stainless steel drums and as it was harvested very early, providing a nervy spine to the wine.

Did you know that about 17.6 billion pounds of plastic—or the equivalent of nearly 57,000 blue whales—is dumped in the ocean every single year. By 2050, ocean plastic will outweigh all of the ocean's fish.
