Hello, there! We’re the Idaho Wine Commission!
In Idaho, you’ll find that we’re not short on warmth or character. You’ll find it in the wine, in the people who make it, and in the folks who work at the Idaho Wine Commission.
We’re a group of movers and shakers, and some of us are even winemakers who have the happy job of promoting and supporting the wine and cider industry in the state of Idaho. It’s a fun job, and an important one too. Our responsibilities include marketing support, industry advocacy, education and research, as well as enhancing the tourism experience across Idaho wine country. And as Idaho continues to grow in recognition locally and globally as a wine destination, we’ll be here to help nurture it along every step of the way.
Inclusive
Whole and undivided. Everyone is welcome at our table. (Especially if they bring a bottle of Viognier.)
Kind
Helpful, caring and uplifted. We want to leave things—and people—better than we found them.
Clear
Easy to perceive and interpret. Everyone deserves to enjoy great wine, and that means sharing knowledge in an accessible, conversational way.
Respectful
See and show high regard for all. We may be laid back, but we keep it classy when it comes to how we speak about and treat one another.
