PROFILE |
 |
Heard it through the grapevines? A top seller of premium wines, Beringer Blass Wine Estates (a division of Foster's Brewing, formerly Beringer Wine Estates Holdings) operates six California wineries. It produces red and white wines sold under the Beringer, Chateau St. Jean, and Stags' Leap labels, among others. It also markets brands imported from Chile, France (where it co-created the Rivefort label), and Italy. The firm controls more than 10,000 plantable acres in California and is the oldest continuously operating vineyard in Napa Valley. Foster's bought Beringer from investment firm Texas Pacific Group in 2000; it later combined Beringer with its Mildara Blass division, creating Beringer Blass.
