78803. Opportunity exists for continued growth and expansion of the Mendocino County winegrape and wine industries by creating new markets in the state, the county, and abroad. The success of an expansion program is uniquely depending upon effective education, advertising, promotion, and research, since the creation of new markets is essentially a matter of educating and informing people of the use and availability of the commodity. The expansion of the Mendocino County winegrape and wine industries also provides an important source of jobs for many people in the area, and serves to ensure the preservation of an agrarian society.
