Hello,
We at Sorelle Winery would love to have one of your writers come out to our winery or just speak to us a little more about the winery. We are new to the wine world and are trying to spread the word about our winery. Sorelle is a small family owned winery in the Lodi Appellation. They produce small lots of Italian varietals. Sorelle Winery recently participated in the 2011 San Francisco Chronicle’s Wine competition and won gold for there Sangiovese and Bronze for their Primitivo.
Please take a look at the website as it will give you more insight on the family that owns the winery and the wine.
Thank you for your time,
Ron Justice

Hello, Ron,
All of these writers are either on staff for magazines and newspapers. This is a guide for you to know who are the key players. A wine publicist, like myself, has these people in her or his database, and should make those invitations directly to each person for you.
Best wishes with you new project. It’s always very exciting when a new company is launched. — jo
