With more wineries adopting DTC, the wineries that architect a customer experience and modernize their operations, technology, and supply chain to meet the high expectations of the digital consumer, are awarded a greater share of wallet. Being frictionless is now table stakes. Delighting digital customers is the name of the game. In addition, there is a whole new world of potential wine sales that has been largely unclaimed by U.S. wineries. From an International perspective, 2019 saw 20% of visitors to Napa come from outside the USA, which can represent missed opportunities to win new customers and enter new markets that are currently under-served. Much like the complexity of shipping wine across state lines, countries have different wine import and export rules and customs declaration requirements. International is touted to be the next growth area of DTC wines.
