On Saturday night, the Sonoma County Harvest Fair gave out its wine awards. The Sweepstakes Awards went to Adler Fels (2007 Pinot Noir Russian River Valley) and Owl Ridge (2008 Sauvignon Blanc Sonoma County).
As of this morning (Tuesday), still nothing on the Adler Fels Web site about their win.
Owl Ridge, to their small credit, added a brief note on their home page on Monday morning.
OWL RIDGE walks away with Harvest Fair SWEEPSTAKES Award for 2008 Sauvignon Blanc - Sonoma County!!!!
No information about where I can buy some (nor does it appear to be available for sale in their online store), no explanation of why that's the case.
Is this too hard? Is there something I'm missing? Or do wineries really not give a damn about making use of their Web presence to drive sales?
Sign me Discouraged.
From the article in the PD this morning, we now know why Alder Fels has not said anything... But then again, looking at their Facebook Page or website, they don't say much at all.
