This summer we’re inviting Riesling producers to get more actively involved in the Summer of Riesling. There are several ways:
How you can help us at the Summer of Riesling!
In a nutshell: Jason Hoy and Stuart Knox spent thousands of dollars last year promoting your grape variety. (Still explaining this to their wives is difficult) We’ll do the same this year for one simple reason – we love Riesling.
Assistance:
We want to expose your Riesling to as many people as possible. Are you willing to send us a couple of Bottles?
The Summer of Riesling Launch would love one bottle for a week-long tasting event already planned in the Calendar. We’d love to hear how you might get involved in the Summer Of Riesling Laneway Tasting as well.
Contact us and we can talk about it – to maximise the benefit to you and your wines.
Sponsorship:
Why not do what 40 Riesling producers did last year and become a Summer of Riesling sponsor?
Every penny we received last summer want straight back into The Summer of Riesling Campaign . Not for profit. We asked wineries to donate $50 to help us help you.
Now there’s a lot on this coming Summer – and we’d like to see you all in Sydney for Riesling Fever!
So here’s what we are asking:
Donate $50 to the Summer of Riesling Cause and we’ll do the following for you:
• List you as a Summer of Riesling Sponsor – logo on the Sponsors page
• Mention you as much as we can!
• Set up a direct link to your website
Why not? We’d put that nominal donation 100% back into Riesling. Posters, Flyers, Banners, advertising and more.
What you can do together with the Summer of Riesling?
If there’s only one thing you do – make it this:
‘like’ the Summer of Riesling on Facebook if you have an account – this simply steers more people, to your wines.
Follow @summeroriesling on Twitter – we’ll guarantee to follow you back! Pop #summeroriesling in your tweets and (as long as it’s clean) retweet you to 1000’s of others.
This costs nothing but your time – and benefits you directly.
What you can do for yourself?
OK, you’ve done that, now why not roll up your sleeves?
Get involved directly.
Create your own event – we’ll help Publicize your events and add them to the Calendar of events on the www.summerofriesling.com.au website – let us know about them.
This can be anything from a Riesling tasting for 10 people to a Gala dinner for 1000.
(We’re still praying someone is ready to help set up Riesling Roller Derby this year!)
This is still not asking much.
Definitely get involved with The www.FEIRT.com.au Riesling Event in February.
This is not about one individual winery – only one individual grape: RIESLING!
Organise a stand at ‘Riesling Fever’
You would be MAD not to organise a stand at ‘Riesling Fever’ on February 6th – Simply contact Frankland Estate for details. We will be pouring all our energies into making sure as many public as possible get along to this tasting – the more of you that get involved – the more people are going to come along!
Attend The Frankland Estate International Riesling Tasting
We can guarantee any amount you throw at Riesling this year pales in comparisin to the amount that Frankland Estate invest in this international event every two years.
Show your support of the grape you love and COME ALONG to the www.FEIRT.com.au event. Educate yourself, learn from your peers, taste incredible wines. Write it off at tax time. This simply makes sense if you’re at all interested in Riesling. Are you?
Browse through the Summer of Riesling Events Calendar and find an event you’d like to get involved in…
