I listened to a wine podcast recently and was impressed with actor Elizabeth Banks and partner Marian Leitner-Waldman’s comments and brand positioning and their thoughts and strategies on making wine more approachable. I hope the industry gets a clue and follows suit.
Stay tuned, winemaker Eric Lanxades’s Wine Characters interview may be coming soon!
