DDWA Members are VIPs!
For Members of Dan Dawson’s Wine Advisor, VIP status goes beyond the website.
Receive special offers and extra-special treatment when you visit these wineries.
When you book a tasting appointment, tell them, “I subscribe to Dan Dawson’s Wine Advisor.”
Reservations in advance are required. The more notice the better, but call or email at least two days in advance (note that some wineries require more). At most of these wineries, the hospitality department is the owners, so flexibility may be required to arrange a meeting time.
