Dennis
Grimes, Owner/WineMaker at Eagles Nest
Winery
"We needed a robust, dynamic, and fun environment for our
customers and friends to enjoy and share in the full spectrum of
happenings at our winery - includng all the activities that
encompass "the wine lifestyle". "
"We, as a winery, recommend that wineries seeking to implement Web
2.0 technologies including social networking, social media and
blogging in particular, contact Cheryl for insight into and
services relevant to implementing these technologies to support
their winery business."
Lee Stipp,
General Manager at Donati Family Vineyard “I think blogging is only part of the way a winery should
connect with customers and the outside world. I’m proud to say that
Donati Family Vineyard was the first winery to actually launch our
own community, WineSpace, where not only can we blog, but our
community members have their own space to blog, add video, interact
with each other and so much more.”
“Nothing will replace the face to face relationship that a winery
builds with it’s customers, but when filling in the gaps between
visits, WineSpace is a great two-way street for wineries and
consumers to bond.”
“Finally, in a shocking move, we even believe that our out of state
wholesalers and trade find our WineSpace useful to gather current
information on our products that they can share with their
customers. This fully integrates our brand building efforts and the
cost is minimal.”
