During the past three years, New York-based Pernod Ricard USA has invested in and helped to grow a significant number of American-made spirits brands.

Each vineyard will support the growing luxury wine portfolio, which includes The Four Graces from Willamette Valley and Chalk Hill from Sonoma County.

In a move that pushes Fort Worth, Texas-based Ben E. Keith Beverages fully into the spirits market, the company has acquired Dallas-based Artisanal Beverage Distributor’s assets, adding 20 suppliers to its growing lineup of spirits and expanding its spirits distribution footprint statewide.

No matter the size, beverage manufacturers need to make sure their products maintain the same high levels of quality and taste.

Adding to its line of canned cocktails, Cutwater Spirits released Bourbon Whiskey Mule. 

This month, Napa Valley wine consultant and community leader Paula Kornell will introduce the inaugural vintage of her Napa Valley Blanc de Noir, carrying on the work of her father, legendary sparkling winemaker Hanns Kornell.

The vivid new package reflects the importance of these wines in the company’s portfolio, while also differentiating them from the winery’s popular J. Lohr Estates wines.
