I am honored and pleased to serve our communities and region as President of the Wineries of Santa Clara Valley in 2017. With the new year comes an enhanced commitment to serving you, our guests. We want to hear from you: your suggestions, feedback, and other thoughts you may have to help us continue to improve your experience at our wineries.One of my personal goals is to reach out to you, our local communities on a more regular basis. We kicked off the year with a strategic planning session and began a journey toward defining our brand along with our strategic priorities.  An important priority is to extend our visibility throughout the Bay Area, resulting in increased foot traffic and tourism to our communities and businesses.But we need your help.Please tell your friends and co-workers about the natural countryside, fields of grapevines and views of the mountain ranges that are so spectacular from many of our winery backyards. Let them know that very likely they will meet many of the winery owners, winemakers, and others wine lovers during a visit. And that they will leave with shared stories and a sense of belonging.  Finally, and perhaps most importantly, they will enjoy superb wines. While the winemaking process varies from winery to winery, excellent results extend across the region, guaranteeing that there’s a wine for every palette.Thank you and I look forward to a year of connecting.Karen Seeker, Co-Owner Seeker VineyardPresident, Wineries of Santa Clara ValleyVisit Wineries of Santa Clara Valley’s website at santaclarawines.com
