THE ÜLLO STORY
Üllo is a Chicago startup with a simple mission to bring wine back to its natural state.
Derived from the alchemy symbol for purify, Üllo means pure wine and is pronounced “oo-low.”
SIMPLE + PURE
We believe wine is best in its natural state, without the artificial sulphites that were added as a preservative.
NECESSITY = INVENTION
My aunt is sulphite sensitive and couldn’t enjoy wine at our family gatherings. When I read that others had similar reactions, I felt the need to create a solution, and with my background and education in chemistry, I had the knowledge to do so.
