Food Artisans

    Local wineries' favorite source for grass-fed beef, locally hunted boar sausage, specialty cheeses, and hunter's delights.
  • Pier 46 Seafood Market
    Live lobsters, crab, oysters, shrimp ... Pier 46 will cook and clean your shellfish, too! Order fresh and prepared seafood plates to go, or enjoy a plate of raw oysters or fried seafood platters on one of their patio tables. You can also find them on Facebook.
  • Santa Barbara Olive Company
    The crunchiest baby corn, crisp spicy green beans, wild array of stuffed olives ... my favorite source for antipasto plate vegetables, and condiments for those early morning Sangriento Marias.

Vineyard Owners

  • Do you want a complete marketing plan specifically designed for your business?
  • Have you ever wished you had a waiting list of back up buyers?

This 14-page eGuide provides a complete Ten Step Marketing Plan for your vineyard.

I have distilled 20 years of experience into a Marketing Plan for Vineyards that addresses YOUR needs.  For little more than the cost of a grande cappuccino you can purchase a plan that will lead you through a full year of activities that take your timing, your energy, and your needs into account.

 

Wineries

  • Have you ever wished that your source vineyards were better at communicating?
  • Do you wish they had a plan and a protocol for dropping off berry samples and requesting wine samples?
  • Has communication about harvest timing, quality, or contracts ever been a problem?

This inexpensive eGuide makes a great handout for your current sources and I highly recommend it as an addendum to new and renewed grape contracts.
