Shelbi Herring
Shelbi Herring founded Copa Fina in 2009, bringing together her experience as a strategy consultant and a passion for wine. As a business consultant, Shelbi specialized in growth strategy, logistics, and finance, primarily in the retail category, working with companies such as Nordstrom, Gap, the Walt Disney Company, and Cardinal Health.
While Shelbi began learning about wine as a hobby, she began to seriously consider a break into the wine industry after traveling through Argentina in 2008. She fell in love with the country, the culture, and of course, the wines.
