Presentation of Winery Blogging for Wine Tourism Conference
After spending the weekend learning and speaking at the I Wine Pleasures Conference in Sitges, Barcelona, I wanted to share the presentation we showed in our talk. I have to confess that I am really happy to see so much interest in winery blogging. At our talk various people from several different fields, including wineries, media bloggers, tour operators and sommeliers were very active in the conversation. Please take a look at the presentation and let me know what you would add to it.
During this windy weekend, I also had opportunity to hear about some interesting olive oil tourism projects around Spain. It was also a great opportunity to learn a little something about how to better market our Organic Olive Oil.
Additionally, I met Ricardo Gomes, from the Portuguese company, Selected Wineries. Ricardo is representing a group of Portuguese wineries determined to promote wine tourism in their regions.
Overall, it was a great weekend, a worthwhile suffering through a little extra wind

Quevedo was founded in 1991 as a family owned business in the heart of the Douro valley, responding to the needs of the generations that preceded the associate founders. These ancestors were passionately dedicated to their vineyards and to the culture that surrounded the production of wine. Consequently, the company was created as a seamless marriage between the initial phase of production and the promotion and selling of their wines. Currently, the estate is comprised of 100 hectares located in the regions of Cima-Corgo and Douro Superior, producing both red and port wines from only the five traditional port grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão and Tinta Barroca. 
Found out about your presentation through your RSS feed. And, I think your point about using the Internet to market your wine succesfully is a good one. Quevedo is now something that we will look for (both in Portugal - when we visit - and at home in Canadá). So, for at least one family, your efforts are working!
