McManis is a victim of President Trump's tariffs against Canada. While Trump imposed the tariffs, following various verbal attacks on our northern neighbor, most Canadian provinces pulled U.S. alcohol beverage products from their shelves.
Exports to Canada, primarily Ontario, made up about 40% of the McManis family's export sales – 75,000 cases. One year later sales to Canada totaled 1,000 cases, about 50% of export sales. About 90% of the winery's business is growing and crushing grapes to produce bulk wine for other vintners. Some of those are also dealing with Canada's boycott of U.S. bev/al products.
Less than two years ago, McManis Family Vineyards announced that sales and marketing functions of the company were shifted to Resurrection Brands.
McManis Family Vineyards has been family-owned and operated for five generations, with a legacy of high quality and distinctive wines for more than 20 years. McManis Family Vineyards’ wines are made with premium wine grapes farmed from over 3,600 acres of land throughout California, including Lodi, Clarksburg, and Ripon.
