About Me:

Tincknell & Tincknell, Wine Sales and Marketing Consultants, provide strategies, consultation, and services in wine sales, wine marketing, branding, and technology to wineries and wine related businesses. We help wineries compete in the burgeoning, global wine industry with creative, new, business techniques, building brand equity, innovative marketing, and applying today's technology effectively.

I have over two decades in wine sales and marketing, from on- and off-premise sales to being an Assistant to the Director of Sales and Marketing at Chateau Montelena, and the Senior Marketing and Direct Sales Manager at Cuvaison Winery. I'm a sometime home winemaker, a sometime home brewer, and a regular imbiber (in moderation, of course ;-).

I'm also a big music fan, from baroque to be-bop, idm to post-rock, blues to alt.country, and most everything in between. I kill many hours a year volunteering for the annual Healdsburg Jazz Festival (every first week in June).
