The Social Sip

The Social Sip is a result of a passionate blend of wine, marketing, and the desire to empower wineries. Our story began with Brooke Huffman, a wine enthusiast and seasoned marketing professional, who decided to merge her expertise with her love for wine. Driven by a desire to assist wineries in navigating the ever-evolving world of social media, Brooke founded The Social Sip, a company dedicated to helping wineries thrive in the digital landscape.
