Marin Ping

During an entreprenuerial stint in Beijing, Marin clinked glasses with many budding wine enthusiasts.

They discussed regional favorites from Spain to France, South Africa to California. But at the mention of Virginia, all were rendered speechless.

And so was defined an opportunity to introduce China to a region that inspired her passion for wine in the first place.

She founded Vinologic EAST with the mission to create valuable opportunities for local vineyards to cross into global markets.

Leverging contacts in both locales, the enterprise provides seamless strategic and logistical support to bring Virginia wines and Chinese winos together at the table.
