The unique allure of American wineries often stems from the stories of families who have dedicated generations to cultivating the vineyards and producing exquisite wines. However, this deep-rooted heritage is significantly rarer in the U.S. compared to Europe, where many wineries have been family-owned for centuries. The challenge of maintaining these wineries across generations highlights the complex issues surrounding succession planning in the American wine industry, where enduring through the ages remains an exception. The journey to preserve these legacies amidst evolving landscapes is both fascinating and intricate. #familybusiness #successionplanning #longevity #wineries

The charm of American wineries often lies in the story of generations nurturing the vineyards and crafting wines, yet this heritage is far less common in the U.S. than in Europe, where family-owned wineries can boast centuries of history. The struggle to keep these wineries within the family showcases the nuanced challenges of American succession planning in an industry where longevity is the exception, not the norm... #familybusiness #successionplanning #longevity #wineries

WineChain announced today that it has reached the important milestone of 100 international wineries* onboarded on its platform. Didier Dagueneau, Thibault Liger-Belair, Egon Muller, Charles Heidsieck, Cantina Rizzi, Château Climens, Beaucastel, Roederer, Symington Family, Domaine Vaccelli..... All have successfully completed all the necessary steps to be ready to launch their next exclusive offers on WineChain: from now on, they can choose independently the wine, the quantity, the price, the geographical areas on which the offer is made and the royalties attached to the smart contract, all important criteria for the success of their operation. Resolutely Web3-oriented, WineChain - which was created by winegrowers for winegrowers - makes perfect sense for the world's top names in wine. Antoine Pétrus (Director of Wine): "The WineChain community is convinced that the great wines of tomorrow are still only at the 'hidden gem' stage, and that the role of our platform is to promote them. WineChain is the platform for all great wines, not just those of today, but also those of tomorrow. As more and more iconic estates join WineChain to offer their wines exclusively to a new generation of private customers, it was only natural to associate them with the rising stars and hidden gems that will come to the fore in the years to come."

Good point Alison! With so many wineries and brands in total ‘survival mode’, I think it’s real easy to start chasing alternative routes to a P&L. Your point about the restaurants is potentially a great key, especially if wineries had greater access to collaboration with local restaurants. With 170,000+ new brand registrations in the last year, 80,000+ of them imported product, staying in business seems to be overshadowing the focus of being a great hospitality brand. I believe in creating experiential winery events highlighting the miraculous details of wine as the key to great hospitality eventing. A little food ‘to go with it’ is an accent or enhancement to the focus, not a focus of the brand.🛟🍷 #directtoconsumer #dtc #winemakersforum #wine #winery

The wine industry suffers enough from a reputation of elitism and exclusivity, it doesn’t need yet another super elite private club. Leaders of fine wine and fine dining should be working towards grass roots education to inspire, attract talent and develop & acquire new markets. Instead, this new private elite club member venture is clearly sending out the message of division, exclusion and in other words “if you’re not rich enough you can’t join our club”. Sad but true. #winebusiness #wine https://lnkd.in/gYiQptd5
