Madeline Long, co-owner of Vine Fine Wine, emphasizes the natural fit of local offerings: "It seemed like a no-brainer for us. We have local sourdough crackers, local honey, local ceramics ... it only seemed natural to extend that to wine." Many customers have shown interest in local wines, indicating a demand that the market hasn't fully met.
The article discusses the challenges facing Georgia winemakers: "Quality and consumer demand are the biggest reasons why local wines don’t make an appearance in the city. The next reason is an information gap on distribution... This is a major missing piece of the puzzle for restaurant sommeliers and wine shop owners who believe they need a distributor to buy Georgia wine for their inventory."
