NCNN Ep3 Cultivating Togetherness: In Conversation with Honore Comfort

What do zillenials want? What do they seek? How do they think about wine and what can the industry do about this? In this third episode of New Consumers, New Narratives, we meet Honore Comfort, the vice president of international marketing at the Wine institute, the collective body representing the Californian wine trade. In 2024, the wine institute commissioned a big study aiming to understand the minds of the zillenials – the clever contraction of Gen Z-at least the ones that are old enough to legally drink +millennials. While acknowledging that this cohort is diverse, the study focused on understanding the key points making this demographic so different from other age groups and how these differences impact the way they see – and think about wine.  This podcast series is part of a larger Areni Global research project.
