With a 50% net profit margin and a loyal customer base, it operates without digital marketing expenditure. Key assets include federal and state liquor licenses, a California warehouse setup, and a direct importer-to-consumer model.

The business includes a premium domain with a notable domain authority, valuable licenses, and a clean list of over 1,500 active newsletter subscribers. It has established supplier connections with international organic vineyards and local distributors.

Transition terms involve open negotiations, a 30-day support period for introducing suppliers and compliance training, and the inventory is available for purchase at cost. This is a valuable opportunity for an interested party to leverage existing strengths and expand in the wine industry.
