Why is Wine PR Struggling So Much?

Adam, Joanna, and Zach ponder the question of why the wine industry is struggling so bad with PR and communications. Does the industry just not pay well enough to consistently attract top talent? Why is it so difficult to understand that different journalists and publications have different standards and priorities? Plus - can we please put an end to "spray and pray" PR blasts?
