Corkd: Are Twitter Tasting Events Worth It?
Today’s DrinkNectar post is featured on Cork’d. Head over there and check out the story about Twitter wine tasting events. Cork’d is becoming a fantastic resource for wine news and I’m proud to be a part of it.
Twitter wine tasting events are changing the wine community. I had the honor of co-sponsoring #WAMerlot and saw firsthand the power of the online community. As a wine brand, these events offer little or no cost opportunities for brand impressions, building your customer base and interacting with your existing customers. As a wine consumer, they provide an opportunity learn, engage and connect.
Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the following Taste and Tweet events.
Taste Live – The premier web site for online wine and beer tastings
Community Wine Tastings on Twitter – A Facebook community to compliment the Taste and Tweet events on Twitter

Thanks, Tamara! They’re rockin’ people. It really was weird to get an email from Gary V. I have to admit I kinda had a little man crush on the guy! LOL

Thanks for the mention on Taste Texas. I’m really excited to be doing it, and to have you join in the fun. Thanks for everything that you are doing to promote local wine all over the country, and Spokane is lucky to have a great ambassador like you.
Thanks, Ben! I appreciate that. Sometimes I think that people around here don’t realize what I’m trying to do…but I’ll just keep doing it.
