Who we are

We are a marketing consulting company specializing in helping small wineries focus their pricing, packaging and brand image to increase their market exposure and sales. As a husband and wife marketing team, we started Vintelligent Marketing to combine and utilize our extensive wholesale, retail and direct-to-consumer wine sales experience, as well as our industry contacts, to help small wineries compete in this very competitive industry

Dan MobergOwner
Dan spent almost seven years as the sole wine buyer at the St. Helena Wine Center, one of the finest wine shops in the United States. Before that he drove tractors and forklifts in the vineyards during harvest for Valerie’s family, worked bottling lines and as a cellar rat, was a sales representative for a fine wine wholesale distributor, and most recently has been the General Manager for two ultra-premium Napa wineries. He has a naturally incredible palate that he has enjoyed refining over the years, and is a kick-ass home and sometimes pretending-to-be-professional chef. Restoring classic cars has been his lifelong passion.

Valerie MobergOwner
Valerie started her wine industry career in the vineyards on her family’s 400-acre ranch, and spent years working for small wineries. She’s handled almost everything but the winemaking in the wine industry ~ bottling lines, tasting room sales, administration, newsletter writing, marketing, social media and event planning. She has a B.A. in Communication from the University of California at Santa Barbara, a program dedicated to the study of all forms of human communication from interpersonal to mass media. Volunteering for non-profits has been one of her main hobbies over the years, serving 7 years on the Board for our kids’ charter school (4 years as Secretary, 3 years as President and all of those years plus a couple more as the main Fundraising Event Planner) and 2 years on the Parent Board for our kids’ high school, and volunteering for over 7 years with Jameson Humane, an animal welfare organization in Napa.

We met in high school, married during college, and have spent many years enjoying the process of perfecting our palates together. We have traveled through many of the wine regions of France and Italy, some of them by bicycle, attended the Vin Italia wine tasting in Verona, Italy, and have a shared passion for great wine, great food and anything that brings the two together. We also have two adult “kids”, Nicholas and Isabelle, and have had three amazing Boxers over the years… Pineau (des Charentes), Guinness (Extra Stout) and now Stella (Artois). Fortunately for Nick and Belle, we didn’t even consider naming them for grape varieties or beer brands.
