Having grown up in the deep South Texas countryside, sharing drinks with siblings, parents, aunts, and uncles, Leslie Owensby spotted a gap in the market for wine.
Leslie noticed that very few foods are made to travel, so he wanted to create a wine that was accessible to everyone - and decided to make one in a can!
But not just any wine… Leslie wanted to make a vegan wine in a can, and the next thing he knew, Defy Wine was born.
In today’s episode, we are going to have Leslie on the show to tell us about the backstory of his wine brand, how he dealt with the struggles, and what he has learned in starting an alcohol brand.
Leslie will tell us more about how he tested his initial idea, why the first sale is so important, and some of the truths about starting an alcohol brand.
