Meiomi Pinot Noir also is among the fastest growing major pinot noir brands across all price points in the latest 12-week period, according to a press release. Constellation Brands has a successful track record of integrating high-growth brands into its portfolio and accelerating their strong marketplace momentum, the companies say. "Meiomi complements the array of selections we offer consumers by filling a niche in our luxury portfolio," said Jay Wright, president of Wine and Spirits at Constellation Brands, in a statement. "The rapid growth rate Meiomi has achieved in such a short time is evidence that the brand resonates with consumers, and we're excited about adding it to our wine portfolio." Wagner, a fifth-generation California winemaker, will maintain a winemaker consultant role for the next two vintages. "We are very proud of what our team and organization have accomplished with Meiomi in a relatively short timeframe," Wagner said.
