As you may know, we had the chance to interview Allen Shoup of Long Shadows Vintners a while back. He was in our neck of the woods receiving an award from Sunset Magazine at the Savor the Central Coast Event. We got to chat with him about a couple topics that we know pretty well, social media…and Gary Vaynerchuk (@garyvee on Twitter).
Social Media and the Wine Market
Allen had some interesting comments about both social media and Gary V, and we wanted to share them with you. It’s exciting to hear what somebody like Mr. Shoup has to say about the role that social media plays in where the wine market is moving these days. It makes us feel that much better about what we’re doing out here with all of you! We still are very appreciative of Allen and his willingness to sit and chat with us, we respect him immensely and hope to cross paths with him again someday.

OK!!!! The Christmas trees are up and the trains are running under them, and the wine is flowing. Nothing like a drunk engineer. Come on out Annie and I’ll tie you to the tracks.
Hahaha!!! So, Christmas has arrived at the Eberle caves? That’s awesome…we’ll be out next weekend to check out the scene. Might have to check the stability of the tracks before committing to anything, though.
