We have launched our new consumer club "Insider" and we'd love to see more wineries with special offers.
We have the long-term perks: 2 for 1 tasting, 10% off wine and special shipping offers.
Additionally Insiders get Wine Road event tickets at 10% off and we are creating quarterly seminars, where they can save 50% on those tickets.
We also have "short term" offers for Insiders. Wineries and lodgings can post any type of special offer they want, ONLY Insiders can see the offers (they are hidden from public view). These can be wine sales, special tours or signed bottles with a purchase, discounted charcuterie boards, tasting with winemakers or owners with reservations - anything you want to offer and YOU set the time line. It may be good for a month or two, it may only be redeemed on a week day - you call the shots.
To create one of these offers, login to WineRoad.com, then click on Insider Privileges and fill out the form. Questions beth@wineroad.com

Thankful For The Support
A huge thank you to Ron Rubin Winery for sponsoring our Wine Road podcast for another year. Their financial support covers all production costs for this program. Without their support, we would have ended our podcast a year ago. Thanks to them, we are heading into our 6th year of producing the show, we are about to record episode #160!
Additionally, we want to encourage all of our members to connect with Ron Rubin to learn about his Trained for Saving Lives program.
Ron continues his quest to get a heart defibrillator into every winery in Sonoma County.
Click HERE for details about this Trained For Saving Livings program.
Thus far an impressive 282 wineries have received their ZOLL Defibrillator at no cost to them.

Debbie, along with Devin (Hook & Ladder Winery) and Helen (Balletto Vineyards), two of our Board members spent the day pouring sparkling wine, talking about our new club, Insider, and inviting people to come back in November for our Wine & Food Affair.
