VANCOUVER, BC – March 30, 2021 – Quini® (www.quiniwine.com) today announced that Okanagan, BC based TIME Family of Wines (www.timewines.ca) has selected the QUINI DATA™ Gold solution to support business and product decision making at the winery. Built within a historic and revitalized movie theatre space in downtown Penticton, TIME Family of Wines is the parent company that is home to celebrated BCVQA brands TIME Wines, Evolve Cellars, and McWatters collection.
Near real-time sensory data analytics dashboards will provide marketing and wine making teams with actionable insight to discover, reinforce and optimize wine innovation ideas. Faster access to information will allow the winery to speed up decision making, optimize marketing and positioning, and reduce business risk.
Said TIME Family Wines General Manager Christa-Lee McWatters: “As we expand our portfolio of wines, we must always realize the maximum gains and risk reduction by getting guidance from our end consumers.” “With real consumer sensory data at our fingertips, TIME Family Wines now has critical sensory and consumer intelligence capabilities not much unlike a billion dollar wine company with a multi-million dollar sensory lab and budget.”
Year round access to the QUINI DATA Gold platform allows TIME Family of Wines marketing and wine making teams to draw on Quini’s local consumer tasting panel sensory feedback for timely information to inform business, wine innovation, positioning and pricing strategy without the delays and high cost of traditional research such as focus groups and surveys.
