About Us

What is Vrazon?

Founded in 2011, Vrazon is a company specialising in digital wine communications and dedicated to “helping the wine industry get online”.

Who are the people behind Vrazon?

Ryan Opaz, Gabriella Opaz and Robert McIntosh are the brains behind Vrazon.  They met online in 2006. They share the same passion for wine and social media and the same desire to widen the conversation and bring the story of wine to more people by harnessing the technology available to us in the 21st century.  A virtual friendship turned into a real partnership in the guise of digital wine communications company Vrazon.

What does Vrazon do?

Vrazon is leading the discussion about wine in the fast evolving social media landscape, helping introduce new tools to the wine industry through exhibitions, conferences, seminars and speaking engagements.
