Our Review
Casella built a portfolio of premium and ultra-premium wines through its acquisition of Peter Lehmann in ‘14; and then Brand’s Laira winery, cellar door and the use of the brand name from McWilliam’s in ’15. In Dec ’17 Casella purchased Baileys of Glenrowan. Casella now has over 1375ha of vineyards spread across Australia. It is 2nd only to Treasury Wine Estates in export sales (by value), followed by Pernod Ricard and Vinarchy. Casella celebrated its 50th anniversary in ‘19. -JAMES HALLIDAY
