Episode notes
Episode 56 of Vertical SaaS with Fexingo dives into the wine industry. Lucas and Luna explore how specialized software is transforming wine retail and direct-to-consumer sales. They break down the case of Vin65, a vertical SaaS platform that now powers over 1,200 wineries, handling everything from compliance to club management. Lucas explains why wineries need custom tools—shipping laws vary by state, allocation models are complex, and customer lifetime value hinges on tasting room data. Luna asks about the economics: subscription tiers, payment processing fees, and how these platforms compete with Shopify. They also touch on the shift from wholesale to DTC and what it means for smaller vineyards.
