"Being certified LIVE and Salmon-Safe has not only opened doors to new customers, but has led to consumer relationships that Benton-Lane Winery and its respective wine drinkers will enjoy well into the future. I feel that the LIVE and Salmon-Safe programs have not only helped us sell wine, but it has also enhanced our brand image."
