In 2024, a research team from the UTIA Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics received a grant from the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service to examine how wineries utilize social media marketing to promote their wines and vineyards. In 2026, the research team received an additional $189,000 in funding to extend the original study for two years. The expansion allows the team to collect additional data to examine how wine buyers value the new Tennessee Quality Assurance Program (QAP) logo, the alcohol content of the product, and whether the wine originated from grapes from an American Viticultural Area (AVA) in Tennessee.
