Oenotourism - its Role in connecting producers and consumers
Storytelling is the new marketing. Oenotourism makes Financial sense- Some Case studies of success stories.
Wine growers have realised that spreading the financial risk of the Mono-culture of wine, by offering accommodation and hospitality, makes perfect sense and assists with building a brand.
Winemakers have many invariables to deal with, including weather, pricing and market trends among the challenges they face. Oenotourism apart from its benefits in marketing, also offers another source of revenue and can be managed by the family.
