Complimentary and Low Cost Wine Tastings at Independent Vineyards. "Wine is constant proof that God loves us and loves to see us happy!" Ben FranklinThere are still a number of wineries around the world who offer free wine tastings as the best way of acquainting prospective customers with their offerings. But even at $3 to $12 a head, which is the very reasonable price many wineries are charging these days to sample their wines, touring the wineries and tasting 3 or 4 wines at each is an inexpensive and very pleasurable way to while away the afternoon.On the custom of complimentary wine tasting:"... Every year, thousands upon thousands of bottles are uncorked and poured free of charge, then written off by the producers, distributors, or retailers as a marketing expense. After all, if you are exposed to a new wine, you are more likely to remember it when you pass through the aisles of your local liquor store." "... Wineries have long pursued this strategy, offering complimentary tastings of their most recent bottlings, often in attractively decorated tasting rooms that instill a sense of place to go along with the lingering flavors on your palate. It's a brilliant marketing strategy - tourists visiting Napa or Sonoma, for example, might discover a producer they had never previously heard of. Once they return to their hometowns, they seek out that producer's wines, both as a newfound delicacy and as a recurring souvenir of their travels." by Mark Ashley, Sr. Free Wine Correspondent, DrVino.com
