Amy Gross Biography
Amy Gross is the Founder and CEO of VineSleuth/ Wine4.Me, which uses flavor data and machine learning to make flavor-based wine, beer and cider recommendations. Her engaging personality and experiences in building VineSleuth have caused Gross to become a sought after keynote speaker on wine, AI and data integrity, personalization, and her entrepreneurial journey. She makes the intricate understandable and has hosted nearly 100 virtual wine tasting events for global and boutique clients, and has presented globally at such events as the Mobile World Congress, VinExpo in Bordeaux and the National Retail Federation’s Big Show, with live (in person) audiences as large as 16,000.
Gross created VineSleuth after a trip to Napa in 2009, that left her puzzled about her wine choices and wanting a personal recommendation engine... And so she got to work. She began studying wine and the business of wine, and then began writing about both, visiting wineries on 4 continents. Pulling together the talents of sensory scientists at Cornell University, winemakers, a master brewer, an applied mathematician, wine educators and more, she directed the creation of VineSleuth’s web applications, earning 3 patents. Her work with VineSleuth has been noted in the New York Times, Fortune, CNN, and Meininger’s Wine Business International, among others.
In 2020, Gross was honored as one of two Rising Stars in the wine industry by the national industry organization, Women for WineSense. She was also recognized as one of the top 30 women advancing AI in Texas.
