The Story of Little Raven Vineyards (3,4,7)
People ask us, “Why Vineyards?” They understand that our name ‘Little Raven’ is because we’re located on Little Raven Street, which is named after the unsung Arapaho Chief. But ‘Vineyards?’ We’re not actually a Vineyard, we’re a retail wine store selling wine in Denver, Colorado. However, we have explored the smaller vineyards throughout North America, Europe, Latin America, New Zealand, Australia, and Africa in order to discover extraordinary, small-production wines not usually found anywhere else. Sure, we have some of the more familiar labels in our shop, but we prefer some of the more artisan wines, as do most of our customers. So you see, since we are supplied by many vineyards, it seemed, well, sort of poetic to us that we highlight that rare fact through our name, Little Raven Vineyards.
Some also ask about our logo mark, which is a single black Raven feather. This, too, comes from Little Raven, the Arapaho noble. Unlike other chiefs of his day who wore hundreds of feathers in their headdresses, Little Raven wore only a single black Raven feather for ceremonial occasions. His tribe loved him even more for his simple, honest and down-to-earth attitudes.
