Bollingers Buy Ponzi
By Michael Alberty
The Bollinger family, owners of Champagne Bollinger, Delamain Cognac and three other historic French estates, announced their purchase of the Ponzi Vineyards brand April 7. The sale includes the winemaking and hospitality facilities in Sherwood, as well as the Avellana, Abetina and Madrona vineyards.
In 1970, Dick and Nancy Ponzi established their winery alongside other early Willamette Valley winegrowers. For decades, the family has been expanding the vineyards and winery facilities, incorporating innovation into its winemaking, viticulture and hospitality.
Under the leadership of a yet-to-be-named CEO, second-generation Anna Maria Ponzi will continue to lead sales and marketing over the transition period. Her sister, Luisa Ponzi, will remain as director of viticulture and winemaking.
