Rulli\u2019s first wine was the 2020 Syrah. She\u2019s since added a 2022 skin contact chardonnay, a dry Riesling from the Colombia Gorge region as well as a white blend. She also offers a pair of 2021 vintages, a cabernet Franc and a cabernet sauvignon, bottled in 2023. In addition to being available on her website, they are served at several restaurants in the Portland area.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Swimming World Readers: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flipturncellars.com\/shop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Get 10 percent off your first order with the code<\/a> <strong>SWIM10<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Her interest was first kindled on that world tour with her husband, seeing the world\u2019s greatest wine regions and learning whatever she could. The native of Ithaca, New York \u2013 firmly craft beer country, though in the emerging Finger Lakes wine region \u2013 found the culture and science of wine first as a cure for corporate burnout, and then as something much more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think that&#8217;s where my passion for wine really kicked off,\u201d she said. \u201cWe were going to some amazing places with these incredible wine regions in South America and Europe where so much of the culture and food was dictated around the wines that were grown in those areas. So I found this growing curiosity during our travels to learn more about wine and explore more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>By 2019, when she decided to take courses with the Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET), she knew it wasn\u2019t a phase. She volunteered as a harvest worker for anyone that would have her extra set of hands, provided she could make connections and pick their brains. Instead of an academic study if viticulture, she was \u201ctransfixed with the grape-to-glass transformation,\u201d and the more hands-on the role the better.<\/p>\n<p>The name fell into place at a party in the summer of 2021, while her first vintage of Syrah was aging for 20 months in barrels. It took a socially distanced gathering at her house that summer, with four friends, a whiteboard, pizza and (plenty of) wine to brainstorm.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_586407\" style=\"width: 510px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-586407\" data-attachment-id=\"586407\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/career-change-by-former-swimmer-meg-rulli-inspired-flipturn-cellars-wines-discount-offer-in-article\/img_5197-large\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large.jpeg\" data-orig-size=\"1280,960\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.8&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 11&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1633189100&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.25&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;32&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.0012953367875648&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG_5197 Large\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;6-3-24&lt;br \/&gt;\nFlipturn Cellars Meg Rulli&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Photo Courtesy: Flipturn Cellars&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-700x500.jpeg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-1024x768.jpeg\" class=\"wp-image-586407\" src=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large.jpeg 1280w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-267x200.jpeg 267w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-450x338.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-1200x900.jpeg 1200w, https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/IMG_5197-Large-533x400.jpeg 533w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-586407\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Courtesy: Flipturn Cellars<\/p><\/div>\n<p>\u201cOne word that really stood out to us was flipturn, and my girlfriends immediately as soon as I said it just loved it because they were like, Yes, this is so this is so you,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd it kind of ties it kind of brings everything full circle where it ties your lifelong passion and hobby of swimming into your now adulthood where you have this new passion of wine and also just this flip and turn an unexpected twist into the world of winemaking and diving headfirst into this industry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rulli\u2019s focus with the grapes is on \u201cminimal intervention.\u201d As she writes, \u201cI try not to monkey around with the wine too much,\u201d letting the grapes do the work. The brand Rulli has constructed has more visible fingerprints of her journey, though not overpoweringly so. She has rigorously documented her journey, the ups and the downs, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/flipturncellars\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">on social media<\/a>, with a digital marketer\u2019s knack for storytelling. The incorporation of her personal history into the brand, with labels that all have an aquatic theme, epitomizes that. It\u2019s also connected Rulli, who has a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.stoel.com\/insights\/multimedia\/podcasts\/stoel-rives-deeply-rooted-podcast-s2e2-how-to-flip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">zeal for networking within the wine community<\/a>, to a broad population of former swimmers with whom the brand resonates.<\/p>\n<p>Rulli, who swam under her maiden name Meg Batley at Babson, sees swimming as having prepared her for the \u201clone wolf\u201d focus on winemaking that she has adopted. A competitive swimmer from age five through college, her singular focus on a goal in her career echoes how she once applied herself in the pool.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think swimming gives you so much,\u201d she said. \u201cThere&#8217;s so much grit and determination that comes with jumping in a pool for five hours of practice every day, plunging yourself into cold water first thing in the morning. I feel that it made me such a hard worker. And I feel that also with swimming, you&#8217;re constantly competing against yourself and trying to challenge yourself to get your personal bests with your times and races. It just requires so much mental grit, that I think that it really translates well into the business world with constantly going outside of your comfort zone, pushing yourself to your limits, also just being a team player and leadership.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Career Change by Former Swimmer Meg Rulli Inspired Flipturn Cellars Wines Metaphorically, Meg Rulli was diving into a new career.
