(TheDrinksBusiness) - Two former AOL executives are using their winery as a social enterprise project to establish the US state of Virginia as a major presence on the world wine map. After more than two decades leading marketing and branding for the US software giant, Jean Case and her husband Steve, who co-founded AOL, have since dedicated themselves to philanthropic investment programmes under the banner of The Case Foundation, which they set up in 1997. Although resident in Virginia for 30 years, Jean Case admitted it was only recently that she recognised the quality of the state’s wine production.
