Introducing Wino Magazine
This summer, WINO Magazine will be hitting the shelves. WINO is a magazine dedicated to the experience of Washington wine culture. More than merely reviewing wine, WINO will feature Washington appelations and wineries, provide information about wine trips and tours, and wine-related events.
The mission of WINO Magazine is to inform, educate and entertain about the Washington Wine Experience. To provide an expanding industry a fresh outlet to a burgeoning consumer base. To develop a fresh viewpoint of wine via content execution.

Posted by Barry Hurd, Seattle, Washington | Mar 12, 2008Welcome to the grand ol Biznik.
You should also network within the Zino society, Columbia Tower Club wine group, and the Poco Room. (LoL, sorry- just wrote a story on social media in the wine industry and I grew up in Yakima.)

Posted by Sarah Brand, Seattle, Washington | Mar 12, 2008And there is a biznik heavy into wine- Seattle Swirl is the name of the company.... I attended an event she held and it was very nice. Maybe your magazine should do a profile on local wine entrepeneurs?

Posted by Helen Martin, Seattle, Mercer Island, Bellevue, Washington | Jun 21, 2008Welcome Douglas,
I've already seen your publication. A friend of mine is planning a bachlerette party and they want to do wine tasting at a winery and had picked up your publication to do the planning.
Kudos, wishing you all the best success.

Posted by Richard Fehling, San Diego, California | Jun 25, 2008Welcome to Biznik Douglas! Can I ask you a question? Why is it that it always seems like people need to be listening to smooth jazz while they're are tasting wine? I like wine and I play rock music. There has to be a place thats hip to what I'm saying. Have you ever covered anything like this in your magazine?

We haven't covered it, but I can tell you that it just ain't so. We like to go to the Tasting Room, and they're always playing some variety of cool stuff. I haven't yet heard smooth jazz at Black Bottle, Artemis or Poco, either. Don't get me wrong, I love old-school jazz, and if I could find a wine bar that played that, I'd never leave the place. But, I feel you on the smooth jazz. Maybe you just haven't found the right venue yet.
This forum is unmoderated, but please keep discussion courteous and not too far off topic.
