| "Reading Wine Business Monthly is essential for winemakers because it covers day-to-day issues we face in winemaking, grape growing and the marketing of wines." | |
"I read Wine Business Monthly cover-to-cover because it has everything I need to run a successful production operation–from articles on new equipment to new strategies for crush, bottling and cellar operations. It also covers the critical issues of marketing, and that's important to me." | |
"Wine Business Monthly helps to keep me abreast of all aspects of the wine industry, from financial issues and production procedures, to winery topics and sales and marketing." | |
"I especially like the practical, hands-on applications in Wine Business Monthly, with stories on oak adjuncts, production, packaging, trends and consumer perceptions." |
