Episode Thirty: Sipping Success: From Martinis to Merlots with Deanna Albertson

In this episode of the High Trust Professionals Podcast, join host Lynette Arrasmith as she engages in an insightful conversation with Deanna Albertson, a remarkable individual with a passion for wine 🍇 and a journey that led her to become the owner of Vino Mas.

Deanna's story is both inspiring and relatable, as she transitioned from a life of beer 🍺 and martinis 🍸 to embracing the world of wine. To her surprise, not only did she enjoy wine, but she also discovered a remarkable ability to remember flavors, varietals 🍇, and brands, earning her the nickname of having a "wine memory".

In 2013, facing a pivotal moment in her career, Deanna ventured into entrepreneurship. She initially envisioned a wine bar but encountered challenges securing funding. That's when her friends John Langwith and Laurel Prestridge, along with her husband Greg, stepped in as business partners 💼🤝. Vino Mas was born, with a name that combines languages to convey the essence of the store—wine, more 🍷, and a sense of home.

What sets Vino Mas apart is not only its diverse wine selection but also its commitment to personalized customer service. Deanna and her dedicated staff strive to make everyone feel comfortable and at ease 🤗. They help customers explore new varietals 🍇 while respecting their preferences, often surprising them with new flavors beyond their usual choices.

Vino Mas's wine club is a key element of its success, offering members access to quality wines at affordable prices, along with free tastings 🍷🍇. The store caters to a range of budgets, with wines priced under $25, making it accessible to both wine enthusiasts and those new to the world of wine.

Deanna's dedication extends beyond her store, as she and her team actively support local non-profits and foster a sense of community. This spirit of service has been ingrained in her values, with a history of fostering and supporting organizations like Boys Town.

Whether you're a seasoned wine connoisseur 🍷 or just beginning your wine journey, Vino Mas is a place where you can explore, learn, and develop your palate. Visit Deanna's website at https://www.vinomas.com to learn more about Vino Mas and her journey in the world of wine.
