PE Playbook: Wine
❝
State of Play
Earlier this week, Atlas Vineyard Management—a full-service vineyard development and farming company backed by Juggernaut Capital—acquired Results Partners, a Clearview Capital portfolio company. The merger creates a scaled third-party vineyard manager that now spans California, the Pacific Northwest, and Texas.
But this isn’t PE’s first swirl around the wine barrel. What began as acquisitions of wineries in the early 2000s has evolved into a broader, value-chain-wide strategy. Today, private equity is consolidating producers, acquiring third-party service providers, and scaling direct-to-consumer channels.
