Thank you Erica Duecy for featuring Aly Wente O'Neal and Wente Vineyards!
Want to understand how to market wine to younger consumers? Then this episode is so for you — it’s a case study on how a 140-year old winery was able to quickly shift its consumer base from Boomers to Millennials. Aly Wente O'Neal, a 5th generation vintner and Wente Vineyards vice president of marketing and customer experience, shares key learnings and insights relevant to all brands looking to engage younger consumers. For those of you unfamiliar with Wente Vineyards, it was founded in 1883, and is located in Livermore Valley, east of San Francisco. Until recently, the brand had a consumer mix that was common for a long-running premium wine brand — dominated by Boomers, aged 60 and up. But in the past 3 years that customer demographic flipped. Aly led the charge to future proof Wente’s business by shifting its marketing strategy to focus on younger audiences, and the effort has paid off in spades. Wente’s sales are now dominated by Millennials (aged 28-43) and Generation X (ages 44-59), with Boomers in third place. Key takeaways: - How to develop an authentic — and relevant — brand voice - Why aspirational lifestyle campaigns are key for younger audiences - How Wente shifted from print to digital marketing spend for clearer ROI - Paid advertising strategies that actually work - How to capture and leverage social media trends to drive engagement - How to reinvigorate your brand strategy and social media presence Listen in: https://lnkd.in/e2rPV3p6 #wine #winebusiness #drinksindustry #wineindustry #winemarketing

We are thrilled to share our newest addition to Wente Vineyards portfolio - Baily Hill Pinot Noir. Named after Baily Little, the godfather of Eric Wente, who recognized the perfect hillside sanctuary for growing exceptional Pinot Noir in Monterey, California. This wine is a tribute to his foresight and the Wente family's devotion, with each sip carrying the essence of their shared passion and the magic of the Pacific coast. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Dominated by bright red and dark cherry, raspberry, and plum notes, this Pinot Noir seduces the senses with subtle hints of vanilla and toasted oak. For decades, we've pioneered the art of Central Coast Pinot Noir and are thrilled to share this approachable, fruit-forward expression of California's coast. Now available for ordering.
