As reported in multiple media outlets, the multinational luxury conglomerate Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE (better known as LVMH) has purchased a 60% ownership stake in cult Napa Valley producer Colgin Cellars for an undisclosed sum.  Prior to the acquisition, LVMH was already the world's largest luxury company, with control of over 60 subsidiaries including top French wineries such as d'Yquem, Cheval Blanc, Krug, Veuve Cliquot, and Ruinart.  With the incorporation of Colgin Cellars, LVMH has advanced its general strategy of acquiring highly-rated wine operations, and if history is any indication, the prices of Colgin's wines will surely increase in future vintages.

Colgin Cellars was founded in 1992 by proprietor Ann Colgin, specializing in extremely limited-production red wines from the Pritchard Hill district of Napa Valley that are primarily sold direct-to-consumer via a mailing list.  Over the past two decades, many of those wines have been awarded perfect 100 point scores by critics like Robert Parker, and Estate Wine Brokers is proud to offer a selection of back-vintage Colgin:
