Woodsy Wino Website Redefines the Online Wine Shopping Experience

Any wine store that wants to stay the least bit competitive does so by having an online presence. Woodsy Wino has branded itself as the user-friendly alternative by creating a complete mythology to what they do. Enjoy a storybook shopping experience!

Jennifer Finnell, founder and president of Woodsy Wino, had a vision. Between her many years working in the high end restaurant field and her years of experience creating and designing websites, she knew that there was a great opportunity to educate more people about wine and the joys of living the wine lifestyle. More importantly, she knew there was a way to do it that nobody else had seemingly considered.

"Every time I went shopping for wine or wine accessories, I felt like it was a cold, stifling experience," Ms. Finnell recently said when she sat down for an interview regarding the remarkable success of her unique website. "I wanted to create something that was warm and inviting, something that made people comfortable and helped them learn more about wine and how to incorporate wine into their everyday life."

One thing she noticed from her years working in some of the finest restaurants in the country was seeing how intimidated people were by wine and how many seemed to treat it as something only for a special occasion. Knowing that this viewpoint is basically only a prejudice, she knew it would take something more than just a basic website. It would involve something unique and creative that allowed people to relax. That was the driving force behind the creation of the Woodsy Wino wine charms and accessories.

"I knew that if I created accessories that let people know wine could be a more universal part of their life, and a fun storyline behind those accessories, I could get people to really open up to the exciting world of wine." Based on the early success her unique and imaginative website has enjoyed, she has certainly fermented a winning idea.
