Veteran’s winemaking operation builds ‘a brand of bravery ‘

by Crystal Kupper

A former Air Force special agent-turned winemaker is teaming up with veteran-focused nonprofits to bless military members and their families.

Retired Master Sgt. Corey Christman is the owner of Bravery Wines, a New York wine label named for the “courageous character” of veterans and first responders. During the month of May, every wine duo sold will generate $5 for the Yellow Ribbon Fund, a charity focusing on wounded service members and their families.

“I want to be known as a giver, not a taker,” said Christman. “We knew from a very early point with Bravery Wines that we would be giving back to some organization that worked with veterans.”
