What a dream job! Drink wine and get paid for it! Sign up quickly
Drinking wine and getting paid for it; this sounds like a joke, but it’s really true. More specifically: white wine from Spain’s Rueda region – and any wine lover knows that it’s absolutely delicious. Will you be the new Winefluencer who knows best how to put the Rueda wine region in the spotlight? Then you’ll receive a nice sum of money and be the face of this region on social media for a year. And… you’ll also receive enough Rueda Verdejo to make the role of Winefluencer a reality.
The Spanish wine region of Rueda is looking for so-called Winefluencers for the third year running, people who want to promote the wine region on social media. They are looking for one winner in the Netherlands and one in Belgium. And both winners will receive a whopping €5,000!
Mmm, a glass of crisp Verdejo
To get you started; the large and sprawling D.O. Rueda wine region is one of Spain’s most important white wine areas. It’s the region where that delicious Verdejo [pronounced: berdego] is made from the grape of the same name. A glass of Verdejo is always a good idea. These wines from Rueda are juicy, fruity and wonderfully refreshing. Truly the kind of wine everyone loves, according to sommeliers.
The vineyards in Rueda are located at high altitude, namely around 700 to 850 metres above sea level. Here, the grapes sweat under the blazing Spanish sun, and shiver from the cold at night. And it’s precisely at that moment that they are harvested – this is how that wonderfully crisp freshness is preserved.
Spread the love
The Rueda wine region is challenging all wine lovers (18+) from the Netherlands and Belgium to share their love for Rueda wines on 19 to 23 September via Instagram – sharing on Facebook, TikTok and blogs is also appreciated, by the way.
The jury, former Winefluencers Elianne and Debbie, will choose the winner based on the quality of the images, personal touch and, naturally, catchy captions. There is no limit to the number of posts you can publish – posting more can even increase your chances.
