It is almost unbelievable, a little over a year ago we started Dutch Wine Apprentice and now we are close to 10,000 followers on our instagram profile! As most of you might know we frequently organise giveaways, as a way to give back to our loyal followers. Today we are announcing our biggest giveaway to date so read on to find out all about it!
We always try to come up with interesting ways to give back to our community, through our content but also through the giveaways we have organised in the past. When looking back into our first year of Dutch Wine Apprentice one thing stood out in particular; our talk show Cellar Talks and the guest. We learned so much about wine, and feel so privileged to get all these first hand insights and amazing stories to share with you guys. That is why we only saw one option when it came to the prizes for our 10K giveaway; ask our former guests for support!
So we texted, e-mailed and called all of these great wine professionals and explained them how valuable they have been in shaping our platform but also in educating and entertaining a great audience of wine lovers. And all of them straight away told us that they wanted to be a part of this giveback-giveaway! So we asked them to think about a prize which they wanted to make available for one of our, and their, fans.
The result is one giant tombola filled with 13 prizes! Starting the 24th of May we will announce one prize every day and you can enter as many times as you want. Prizes will be world-wide available and every winner gets a maximum of 1 prize. Below the list of prizes and partners. Click on the link to go to the specific prize and compete. We will update this list every day so stay tuned:
