“It’s an honor to be named to this prestigious list of tastemakers who are all so wonderfully dedicated to their craft and profession,” said Sam Filler, Executive Director, New York Wine & Grape Foundation. “It’s the perfect time to debut our new look, and show that we, as an organization and state, are boldly moving forward. We’re excited to share the incredible product and passion of our state’s wine and grape industry.”
NYWGF has been working tirelessly to give growers, producers, winemakers and wine experts in the Empire state a bigger spotlight in the world of wine, offering ongoing support for their exceptional work and product. The Foundation’s new marketing initiative aesthetically elevates the brand’s presence both online and off, furthering the Foundation’s aim to engage with industry insiders and consumers around the world. The new branding will be incorporated into all brand resources and events as of today.
In addition to representing New York’s wine and grape industry at international wine events year-round, in New York the Foundation provides many opportunities for buyers, distributors and consumers to experience the
best of New York wines. The Foundation hosts the annual
NY Drinks NY Grand Tasting
event in New York City (coming March 31, 2020), the
New York Wine Classic competition
which honors the best wines throughout the state (see this year’s winners

) and ongoing consumer education initiatives including complimentary expert classes at the New York State Fair and the newly debuted Sustainable Wine Professional Course from Long Island Sustainable Winegrowing (learn more
