Sonadora,

Thanks for the comments. I agree, social media is the way to go- It is cheap, effective, and like you said, wineries can keep consumers engaged and connected throughout the whole process.

Gwendolyn,

Thanks for the comment. It is unbelievable that the WIne Bloggers Conference ranked that high! I’m just curious, who were the followers?

I enjoyed your article, Hardy, especially since it covered parts of the event I missed!

Amazing that the WBC was second to Obama…

Great article Hardy. I think you hit it spot on about wineries “getting it.” To me, social media for a winery is an excellent way to really get your customer and potential customer involved from vineyard to bottle and feel an actual connection and involvement with your product.

Excellent to meet you!
