WINE WORK & PASSION EPISODE 22 - Wine Industry Consultant - Dale Stratton

My guest today is Dale Stratton. Dale has spent the better part of 40 years imbedded in the wine industry and is a treasure trove of knowledge. He is currently serving as the President of the Wine Market Council, the Managing Director for Azur Associates and as an Analyst for Sip Source.

He’s a little like me – he just can’t stay away from this crazy business. I know you will find his journey inspiring and that it will motivate you to dive in with both feet.

As always, be sure to stay tuned until the end when Dale and I will offer up some great advice on how you can join the wine industry and grow your career.
