Evidence of successful wine business strategies: customer acquisition, value or retention?

Abstract

This presentation illustrates a series of successful wine businesses, which have managed to counter the downward trend impacting the global industry. How these businesses have been successful is explained through the planning and execution of strategies that focused on a clear and consistent aim in attracting new consumers. These cases add weight to the ehrenbergian position that for a business to be successful it must target new customers as a priority over alternative options like increasing value or improving customer retention. 

Preuve de stratégies commerciales réussies dans le secteur du vin : acquisition, valeur ou fidélisation des clients ?

Cette présentation montre une série d’entreprises viticoles, qui ont réussi à contrer la tendance à la baisse qui touche l’industrie mondiale. Le succès de ces entreprises s’explique par la planification et l’exécution de stratégies axées sur un objectif clair et cohérent consistant à attirer de nouveaux consommateurs. Ces cas ajoutent du poids à la position ehrenbergienne selon laquelle pour qu’une entreprise réussisse, elle doit cibler de nouveaux clients en priorité plutôt que des options alternatives telles que l’augmentation de la valeur ou l’amélioration de la fidélisation de la clientèle.

Understanding wine as a sensory, emotional, and cognitive experience to promote and communicate conscious consumption

In the complex scenario that the wine industry and its promotion are currently facing, this research proposes a theoretical expansion of the traditional model used to understand the wine experience, namely the classic sensory, emotional and cognitive triad, moving toward a multidimensional approach that also incorporates cultural, symbolic and contextual dimensions in order to comprehend the conscious experience.

Big data analysis of pesticides from the vine to the winery

Of biocontrol products and resistant grape varieties, synthetic pesticides are still widely used to control fungal diseases and protect vines from potential damage caused by pests. The use of pesticides is strictly regulated, and their use can sometimes lead to transfer from the grapes to the must and then into the wine. The study of pesticide residues in grapes and wines is commonly carried out by wine producers in order, among other things, to optimize treatment routes, check that products comply with regulations, and ultimately guarantee the food safety of the wine.

Are all red wines equals regarding their vulnerability to Brettanomyces bruxellensis ?

Odours deemed harmful by the consumer and described as “stable”, “horse sweat” or “burnt plastic” can be found in wines. The responsible molecules are volatile phenols, produced by a spoilage yeast: brettanomyces bruxellensis. This species is particularly well adapted to the wine environment and can resists many stresses such as a high alcohol level, a low ph or high levels of SO2, more or less efficiently depending on the strain considered.
