Vintage Wine Estates has acquired Clos Pegase Winery and Vineyards for an undisclosed sum, reports Wine Spectator. The sale includes the 25,000-case winery near Calistoga, 215 acres of vineyards, the brand and inventory. Richard Sowalsky will remain as winemaker and will consult with Vintage chief winemaker Marco Di Giulio.
