Market
overview – According to Silicon Valley Bank’s (SVB) 2026 annual report, US wine volume reduced by around 2% to 329 million
cases and revenue reduced 1.6% to around $74.3 billion in 2025 from 2024. According to this report, US wine volume consumed has reduced
over the last five years. Additionally, direct-to-consumer volume declined and tasting room visitation dropped for the fourth consecutive
year and consumer demand for the overall wine category continued its decline, with fewer U.S. consumers opting for wine and choosing
alternatives such as ready-to-drink beverages, spirits, cannabis, or abstaining altogether. The SVB forecast for 2026 is a continuing
decline but at a slower rate, bottoming out in 2027 at around $73.0 billion, and then relatively flat through 2030.

According
to the SOVOS 2026 Direct-to-Consumer Wine Shipping Report, 2025 had the largest one year drop with volume down 15% year over year to
5.4 million cases and value down 6% to $3.7 billion.

A
2023 study conducted by the Wine Market Council of 1,500 U.S. consumers identified a significant downward trend in wine consumption attributed
to a general reduction in alcohol consumption, primarily for health reasons. Previously considered a “healthy” option on
the Healthy Eating Pyramid, alcohol consumption is now cautioned against by organizations like the World Health Organization.

According
to the State of the Wine Industry Report 2023 by Rob McMillan, younger wine consumers are not limited by cost; instead, they seek something
enticing to draw them in to learn more about wine, including but not limited to health, sustainability, social values, and transparent
labeling,

The
Company’s Board of Directors and management believe the winery’s focus on integrity in winemaking, small scale, storied estate
vineyards, environmental stewardship, support for community needs and participatory wine experiences are reflective of the values of
a number of prospective, developing wine enthusiasts.

The
Oregon wine industry – Oregon is a relatively new wine-producing region in comparison to California and France. In 1966, there
were only two commercial wineries licensed in Oregon. According to the Oregon Vineyard and Winery Report produced by University of Oregon’s
Institute for Policy Research and Engagement (“UOIPRE”) in 2024, the most recent year such data is available, the
overall number of wineries decreased from 1,143 to 1,076. Planted acres of wine grape vineyards increased by 1,344 acres to 47,343,
while harvested acres decreased by 3%. Oregon wine grapes produced a 2024 crop with a total value of $329 million, a decrease of 6% from
2023. Pinot Noir leads all varieties accounting for 60% of planted acreage and 58% of production. According to UOIPRE, Oregon case sales
in 2024 were 5.8 million, a 4% decrease from 2023.

Because
of climate, soil and other growing conditions, we believe the Willamette Valley in western Oregon is ideally suited to growing superior
quality Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Riesling wine grapes. Some of Oregon’s Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay wines
have developed outstanding reputations, winning numerous national and international awards.

However,
Oregon has certain disadvantages as a wine-producing region. Oregon’s wines are lesser known to consumers worldwide, and the total
wine production of Oregon wineries is small relative to California and French competitors. Greater worldwide label recognition and larger
production levels give Oregon’s competitors certain financial, marketing, distribution, and unit cost advantages.

Furthermore,
Oregon’s Willamette Valley has an unpredictable rainfall pattern in early autumn. If significantly above-average rains occur just
prior to the autumn grape harvest, the quality of harvested grapes is often materially diminished, thereby affecting that year’s
wine quality.

Finally,
phylloxera, an aphid-like insect that feeds on the roots of grapevines, has been found in several commercial vineyards in Oregon. Contrary
to the California experience, most Oregon phylloxera infestations have expanded very slowly. Nevertheless, phylloxera does constitute
a significant risk to Oregon vineyards. Prior to the discovery of phylloxera in Oregon, all vine plantings in the Company’s Estate
Vineyard, in Turner, Oregon, were with non-resistant rootstock. In 1997, the Company purchased Tualatin Vineyards at the Tualatin Winery,
which has phylloxera at its site. All current plantings are with, and all future planting will be with, phylloxera-resistant rootstock
at that location. The Company believes it has taken commercially reasonable precautions in an effort to prevent the spread of phylloxera
to other vineyards.

The
Company’s Board of Directors and management believe the Winery’s focus on integrity in winemaking, small scale, storied estate
vineyards, environmental stewardship, support for community needs and participatory wine experiences are reflective of the values of
a number of prospective, developing wine enthusiasts.

Company
Strategy

The
Company, one of the largest wine producers in Oregon by volume, believes its success is dependent upon its ability to: (1) grow and purchase
high quality vinifera wine grapes; (2) vinify the grapes into premium, super premium and ultra-premium wine; (3) achieve significant
brand recognition for its wines, first in Oregon and then nationally and internationally; (4) effectively distribute and sell its products
nationally; and (5) continue to build on its base of direct to consumer sales. The Company’s goal is to continue to build on a
reputation for producing some of Oregon’s finest, most sought-after wines.

Based
upon several highly regarded surveys of the U.S. wine industry, the Company believes that successful wineries exhibit the following four
key attributes: (i) focus on production of high-quality premium, super-premium and ultra-premium varietal wines; (ii) achieve brand positioning
that supports high bottle prices for its high quality wines; (iii) build brand recognition; and (iv) develop strong marketing advantages
(such as a highly visible winery locations, successful support of distribution, and life-long customer service programs).

To
successfully execute this strategy, the Company has assembled a team of accomplished winemaking professionals and has constructed and
equipped the Estate Winery into a 12,784 square foot winery that includes a 12,500 square foot outdoor production area for the harvesting,
pressing and fermentation of wine grapes.

The
Company’s marketing and selling strategy is to sell its premium, super premium and ultra-premium wine through a combination of
direct sales at the Company’s wineries, tasting room and restaurant locations in Oregon, Washington and California and sales through
independent distributors and wine brokers who market the Company’s wine in specific targeted areas.

To
remain competitive in the premium, super premium and ultra-premium market, the Company has developed a brand in the Walla Walla American
Viticultural Area (“AVA”) under the names Pambrun, Maison Bleue and Metis. The Company produces small vintages of Cabernet
Sauvignon and other Bordeaux-varietals, under the Pambrun brand, and Syrah and other Rhone-varietals, under the Maison Bleue brand, to
compete in the ultra-premium wine market. The Company has released wines under the Pambrun label beginning with the 2015 vintage year
and under the Maison Bleue label beginning with the 2016 vintage year. Additionally, the Company has developed a single vineyard brand
near Hopewell, Oregon adjacent to the current site of Elton Vineyards to produce wine under the Elton label. This brand produces primarily
Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, also for sale in the ultra-premium space. The Company has released wines under the Elton label beginning with
the 2015 vintage year. In 2020, the Company opened a microwinery featuring wine tasting and a custom blending experience under the name
Willamette Wineworks, in historic Folsom, California, and began selling wine under the brand name Natoma. In 2022, the Company opened
a sparkling wine facility and tasting room called Domaine Willamette, at Bernau Estate that features the Company’s sparkling wines,
as well as its other reserve wines, and its biodynamic farming practices.

Vineyards

The
Company owns and leases approximately 1,018 acres of land, of which 801 acres are either currently planted as vineyards or are suitable
for future vineyard planting. The vineyards the Company owns, and leases are all certified sustainable by LIVE (Low Input Viticulture
and Enology) and Salmon Safe. At full production, the Company anticipates these vineyards would enable the Company to grow approximately
69% of the grapes needed to meet the winery’s current production capacity of 654,000 gallons (275,000 cases) at its Estate Winery.

WVV
Estate – Established in 1983, the Company’s Estate Vineyard (the “Estate Vineyard”) is located at the Winery
location south of Salem, near Turner, Oregon. The Estate Vineyard uses an elaborate trellis design known as the Geneva Double Curtain.
The Company has incurred the additional expense of constructing this trellis because it doubles the number of canes upon which grape
clusters grow and spreads these canes for additional solar exposure and air circulation. Research and practical applications of this
trellis design indicate that it should improve grape quality through smaller clusters and berries over traditional designs.

Tualatin
Estate Vineyard – Established in 1973 at the Tualatin Winery location near Forest Grove, Oregon, the Company’s Tualatin
Estate Vineyards is one of the oldest vineyards in Oregon. It was purchased by the Company in 1997. A series of sale-leaseback transactions
split the property into two additional vineyards, and the Company continues to lease and manage the Peter Michael Vineyard and Meadowview
Vineyard, located adjacent to the Tualatin Vineyard.

Ingram
Estate and Elton Vineyard – In 2008, the Company purchased 86 acres near Hopewell, Oregon, for vineyard plantings. Adjacent
to the purchased land is an additional 110 leased acres, also for vineyard development. The Company believes the site is ideally situated
to grow premium Pinot Noir. The Ingram site is also adjacent to Elton Vineyards, where the Company leases 54 acres of established vineyards.

7

Pambrun
Vineyards – In 2015, the Company purchased 42 acres in the Walla Walla AVA near the town of Milton-Freewater, Oregon. Additionally,
the Company purchased an additional 45 adjoining acres in 2017. The Company believes this site is ideal to grow Cabernet Sauvignon and
other Bordeaux-varietals. Wines produced from this vineyard are sold under the Pambrun label.

Loeza
Vineyard – The Company purchased 62 acres near Gaston, Oregon in 2014, for vineyard plantings, and believes the site is ideally
situated to grow premium Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir. The site is close to Tualatin Vineyards which allows the Company to leverage existing
crews for vineyard development and operations.

Louisa
Vineyard – The Company purchased 53 acres in the Ribbon Ridge sub-AVA in 2016 for vineyard plantings and believes the site
is suitable for growing ultra-premium Pinot Noir.

Maison
Bleue Vineyard – The Company purchased approximately 37 acres in the new Rocks District of Milton-Freewater appellation near
Milton-Freewater, Oregon in 2016. Grapes from this vineyard go to the Maison Bleue label.

Bernau
Estate – The Company purchased approximately 17 acres in Dundee, Oregon in January 2017 comprised of 13 acres of producing
Pinot Noir. Additionally, the Company added three acres through a lot line adjustment to add to the parcel. The Company leases 17 adjoining
acres.

Dayton
Vineyard – The Company purchased 40 acres in Dayton, Oregon in December 2016. The Company intends to plant vineyards at this
location.

Lafayette
Vineyard – The Company purchased 36 acres in Lafayette, Oregon in January 2018. The Company intends to plant vineyards at this
location.

Jory
Claim Vineyard – The Company purchased 69 acres south of Salem, Oregon in 2019. The Company intends to plant vineyards at this
location.

Grape
Vines

Beginning
in 1997, the Company embarked on a major effort to improve the quality of its flagship varietal by planting Pinot Noir clones that originated
directly from the cool climate growing region of Burgundy rather than the previous source of Napa, California, where winemakers believe
the variety adapted to the warmer climate over the many years it was grown there.

These
new French clones are called “Dijon clones” after the University of Dijon in Burgundy, which assisted in their selection
and shipment to a U.S. government authorized quarantine site, and then two years later to Oregon winegrowers. The most desirable of these
new Pinot Noir clones are numbered 113, 114, 115, 667, 777 and 943. In addition to certain flavor advantages, these clones ripen up to
two weeks earlier, allowing growers to pick before heavy autumn rains. Heavy rains can dilute concentrated fruit flavors and promote
bunch rot and spoilage. These Pinot Noir clones were planted at the Tualatin Vineyards with phylloxera-resistant rootstock and the 667
and 777 clones have been grafted onto seven acres of self-rooted, non-phylloxera-resistant vines at the Company’s Estate Vineyard.

In
2025, crop yields were roughly 13% below the 10-year average and the Company’s producing acres yielded approximately 794 tons of
grapes a decrease of 13% compared to approximately 913 tons of grapes produced in 2024.

The
Company fulfills its remaining grape needs by purchasing grapes from other nearby vineyards at competitive prices. In 2025, the Company
purchased an additional 594 tons of grapes from other growers. The Company cannot grow enough grapes to meet anticipated production needs,
and therefore contracts grape purchases to make up the difference. Contracted grape purchases are considered an important component of
the Company’s long-term growth and risk-management plan. The Company believes high quality grapes will be available for purchase
in sufficient quantity to meet the Company’s requirements. Additionally, the Company will continue to evaluate opportunities to
plant more acres and purchase properties for future vineyards.

Management
believes that the grapes grown on the Company’s vineyards establish a foundation of quality through the Company’s farming
practices, upon which the quality of the Company’s wines is built. Wine produced from grapes grown in the Company’s own vineyards
may be labeled as “Estate Bottled” wines. These wines traditionally sell at a premium over non-estate bottled wines.

Viticultural
Conditions

Oregon’s
Willamette Valley is recognized as a premier location for growing certain varieties of high-quality wine grapes, particularly Pinot Noir,
Pinot Gris, Chardonnay, and Riesling. The Company believes that the Estate Vineyard’s growing conditions, including its soil, elevation,
slope, rainfall, evening marine breezes and solar orientation are among the most ideal conditions in the United States for growing certain
varieties of high-quality wine grapes. The Estate Vineyard’s grape growing conditions compare favorably to those found in some
of the famous Viticultural regions of France. Western Oregon’s latitude (42o–46o North) and relationship
to the eastern edge of a major ocean is very similar to certain centuries-old wine grape growing regions of France, such as Burgundy.

In
the Willamette Valley, permanent vineyard irrigation is generally not required. The average annual rainfall provides sufficient moisture
to avoid the need to irrigate. However, if the need should arise, the Company’s Estate property contains one water well which can
sustain sufficient volume to meet the needs of the Winery and to provide auxiliary water to the WVV Estate Vineyard for new plantings
and unusual drought conditions. At the Tualatin Vineyard, the Company has water rights to a year-round spring that feeds an irrigation
pond. The Company also has water rights at each of the Pambrun and Maison Bleue Vineyards.

Susceptibility
of vineyards to disease – The Tualatin Estate Vineyard and the adjacent leased vineyards are known to be infested with phylloxera,
an aphid-like insect, which can destroy vines.

It
is not possible to estimate any range of loss that may be incurred due to the phylloxera infestation of the Company’s vineyards.
The phylloxera at Tualatin Vineyard is believed to have been introduced on the roots of the vines first planted on the property in the
southern-most section Gewurztraminer in 1971 that the Company partially removed in 2004. The remaining vines, and all others infested,
remain productive at low crop levels. The Company is in the process of gradually replacing infested areas with new, phylloxera-resistant
vines.

Winery

Wine
production facility – The Company’s Estate Winery and production facilities are capable of efficiently producing up to
275,000 cases (654,000 gallons) of wine per year, depending on the type of wine produced. In 2025, the Winery produced approximately
158,707 cases (377,333 gallons) of wine, primarily from its 2023 and 2024 harvests.

The
Winery is 12,784 square feet in size and contains areas for processing, fermenting, aging and bottling wine, as well as an underground
wine cellar and administrative offices. There is a 12,500 square foot outside production area for harvesting, pressing and fermenting
wine grapes. The Company also has a 23,000 square foot storage building to store its inventory of bottled product with a capacity of
approximately 135,000 cases of wine. The production area is equipped with a settling tank and sprinkler system for disposing of wastewater
from the production process in compliance with environmental regulations.

In
addition to the production capacity discussed above, the Tualatin Winery has 20,000 square feet of production capacity. This adds approximately
28,000 cases (66,000 gallons) of wine production capacity to the Company. The capacity at the Tualatin Winery is available to the Company
to meet any anticipated future production needs. The Company also stores and ages product at the Domaine Willamette Winery location in
Dundee, Oregon.

Mortgages
on properties – The Company’s winery facilities at the Estate Winery are subject to four mortgages with an aggregate
principal balance of $15,184,395 at December 31, 2025. The first two outstanding loans require monthly principal and interest payments
of $62,067 for the life of the loans, at annual fixed interest rates of 4.75% and 5.21%, and with maturity dates of 2028 and 2032, respectively.
These loans are collateralized against the property on the main estate in Salem. The third loan requires monthly principal and interest
payments of $87,989 at an annual interest rate of 6.66%, and with a maturity date of 2039. The fourth loan allows borrowings up to $4,350,000
against property defined in the agreement. The line of credit bears interest at 6.60% and has a maturity date of April, 2027. The general
purposes of these loans were to make capital improvements to the winery and vineyard facilities. These loans are collateralized against
the property on the Company estates in Salem and Tualatin.

Wine
production – The Company operates on the principle that winemaking is a natural, but highly technical, process requiring the
attention and dedication of the winemaking staff. The Company’s Winery is equipped with current technical innovations and uses
modern equipment and software to monitor the progress of each wine through all stages of the winemaking process.

Sales
and Distribution

Marketing
strategy – The Company markets and sells its wines through a combination of direct sales at the retail locations, directly
through mailing lists, and through distributors and wine brokers.

The
Company uses a variety of marketing channels to generate interest in its wines. The Company has a highly functional website, and maintains
social media sites. The Company controls a database of customers for email and direct promotions. The Company continues to submit its
wines to competitions and state, regional and national media for editorials and ratings.

Direct
sales – The Estate Winery is located on a visible hill adjacent to Oregon’s major north-south freeway (Interstate 5),
approximately 2 miles south of the state’s second-largest metropolitan area (Salem), and 50 miles in either direction from the
state’s first and third-largest metropolitan areas (Portland and Eugene). We believe the unique location along Interstate 5 has
resulted in a greater amount of wines sold at the Estate Winery as compared to the Oregon industry standard. Direct sales from the Winery
are a vital sales channel and an effective means of product promotion. The Estate Winery’s Tasting Room is open daily and offers
wine tasting and education by trained personnel. The Company offers by-appointment private tours offering a behind-the-scenes look at
the production process of the wines. The Company has one of the largest wine club memberships in Oregon.

In
September 2022, the Company opened a new sparkling winery, the Domaine Willamette Winery, located adjacent to Highway 99 in Dundee, Oregon,
approximately 30 miles southwest of Portland, the state’s largest metropolitan area, and 25 miles northwest of Salem, the state’s
second-largest metropolitan area. We believe the location of the Domaine Willamette Winery along Highway 99 in Dundee provides an ideal
location for direct wine sales and wine tourism. Domaine Willamette Winery’s Tasting Room is open for wine tasting, restaurant
service and education by trained personnel. It features méthode traditionelle sparkling wines and a wine club. The Company offers
by-appointment private tours, giving a behind-the-scenes look at sparkling wine production. Domaine Willamette Winery’s biodynamic
garden is another attraction for visitors.

In
2014, the Company launched daily food pairings to accompany its wines. The menu highlights Pacific Northwest inspired dishes paired with
the Company’s wines. The culinary offering has now expanded to include “Pairings Wine Dinners,” which are community-style
wine dinners hosted regularly throughout the year. In December 2021, the Company debuted a Pinot Noir Clonal Blending experience giving
guests the ability to be a winemaker for a day by crafting their own custom blends from barrel.

The
Winery has developed a Winery Ambassador program, which connects its “Ambassadors” with customers throughout the United States
and offers personalized wine recommendations and easy ordering by phone or email. The Company sells its wine through its own e-commerce
website.

The
Company also operates seven additional tasting rooms at the following locations: (i) Tualatin Vineyard, Oregon; (ii) Lake Oswego, Oregon;
(iii Happy Valley, Oregon; (iv) Walla Walla, Washington; (v) Vancouver, Washington; (vi) Folsom, California, and (vii) Bend, Oregon.

The
Company holds various festivals and events at its locations throughout the year. Numerous private events, charitable and political events
are also held at Company locations.

10

Direct
sales produce a higher profit margin because the Company can sell its wine directly to consumers at retail prices, rather than to distributors
at free-on-board prices. Sales made directly to consumers at retail prices result in an increased profit margin equal to the difference
between retail prices and distributor prices. For 2025 and 2024, direct sales contributed approximately 54.4% and 53.4% of the Company’s
net sales, respectively.

Distributors
and wine brokers – The Company uses both independent distributors and wine brokers, primarily to market the Company’s
wines in specific targeted areas. Only those distributors and wine brokers who have demonstrated knowledge of and a proven ability to
market premium, super premium, and ultra-premium wines are utilized. The Company’s products are distributed in 49 states and the
District of Columbia, and there are two non-domestic (export) customers. For 2025 and 2024, sales to distributors and wine brokers contributed
approximately 45.6% and 46.6% of the Company’s revenue from operations, respectively.

Tourists
– Oregon wineries are a popular tourist destination with many bed & breakfasts, motels and fine dining restaurants available.
The Willamette Valley, Oregon’s leading wine region, has approximately 74% of the state’s wineries and is home to approximately
794 wineries. An additional advantage for Willamette Valley wine tourism is the proximity of the wineries to Portland (Oregon’s
largest city and most popular destination). From Portland, tourists can visit the Willamette Valley winery of their choice in anywhere
from a 45 minute to a three-hour drive.

The
Company believes the locations of the Estate Winery next to Interstate 5, and the Domaine Willamette Winery next to Highway 99W, significantly
increase direct sales opportunities to consumers. The Company believes these locations provide high visibility for the Company to passing
motorists, enhancing recognition of the Company’s products in retail outlets and restaurants. These wineries are each an approximately
45-minute drive from Portland, the state’s largest metropolitan area.

Dependence
on Major Customers

Historically,
the Company’s revenue has been derived from thousands of customers annually. In 2025, sales to one distributor represented approximately
16.4% of total Company revenue. In 2024, sales to one distributor represented approximately 16.1% of total Company revenue.

Competition

The
wine industry is highly competitive. In a broad sense, wines may be considered to compete with all alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages.
Within the wine industry, the Company believes that its principal competitors include wineries in Oregon, California, and Washington,
which, like the Company, produce premium, super premium, and ultra-premium wines. Wine production in the United States is dominated by
large California wineries that have significantly greater financial, production, distribution, and marketing resources than the Company.
Currently, no Oregon winery dominates the Oregon wine market. There are several Oregon wineries that are older, better established and
have greater label recognition than that of the Company.

The
Company believes that the principal competitive factors in the premium, super premium, and ultra-premium segment of the wine industry
are product quality, price, label recognition, and product supply. The Company believes it competes favorably with respect to each of
these factors. The Company has primarily received “Excellent” to “Recommended” reviews in tastings of its wines
and believes its prices are competitive with other Oregon wineries. Furthermore, the Company believes that its estimated aggregate production
capacity of 720,000 gallons (303,000 cases) per year at its Estate and Tualatin locations give it significant competitive advantages
over most Oregon wineries in areas such as marketing, distribution arrangements, grape purchasing, and access to financing. The current
production level of most Oregon wineries is generally much smaller than the estimated production capacity level of the Company’s
Wineries. With respect to label recognition, the Company believes that its unique structure as a publicly owned company will give it
a significant advantage in gaining market share in Oregon, as well as penetrating other wine markets.

Governmental
Regulation of the Wine Industry

The
production and sale of wine is subject to extensive regulation by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade
Bureau (the “TTB”) and the Oregon Liquor and Cannabis Commission (the “OLCC”). The Company is licensed by and
meets the bonding requirements of each of these governmental agencies. Sale of the Company’s wine is subject to federal alcohol
tax, payable at the time wine is removed from the bonded area of a winery for shipment to customers or for sale in its tasting room.

In
December 2017, the federal government passed comprehensive tax legislation which included the Craft Beverage Modernization and Tax Reform
Act. This legislation modified federal alcohol tax rates by expanding the lower $1.07 per gallon tax rate to wines up to 16.0% alcohol
content with wines containing higher alcohol levels being taxed at $1.57 per gallon. Additionally, the legislation provides for a $1
credit per gallon for the first 30,000 gallons produced; $0.90 for the next 100,000 gallons; and then $0.535 for up to 750,000 gallons.
These modifications were effective January 2020 and have since been made permanent.

The
Company also pays the state of Oregon an excise tax of $0.67 per gallon for wines with alcohol content at or below 14.0% and $0.77 per
gallon for wines with alcohol content above 14.0% on all wine sold in Oregon. In addition, most states in which the Company’s wines
are sold impose varying excise taxes on the sale of alcoholic beverages. As an agricultural processor, the Company is also regulated
by the Oregon Department of Agriculture and, as a producer of wastewater, by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. The Company
has secured all necessary permits to operate its business.

Prompted
by growing government budget shortfalls and public reaction against alcohol abuse, government entities often consider legislation that
could potentially affect the taxation of alcoholic beverages. Excise tax rates being considered are often substantial. The ultimate effects
of such legislation, if passed, cannot be assessed accurately. Any increase in the taxes imposed on table wines can be expected to have
a potentially adverse impact on overall sales of such products. However, the impact may not be proportionate to that experienced by producers
of other alcoholic beverages and may not be the same in every state.

Costs
and Effects of Compliance with Local, State and Federal Environmental Laws

The
Company management is strongly focused on environmental stewardship and maintains a variety of policies and processes designed to protect
the environment, the public and consumers of its wine. Although much of the Company’s expenses for protecting the environment are
voluntary, the Company is regulated by various local, state and federal agencies regarding environmental laws. However, these regulatory
costs and processes are effectively integrated into the Company’s regular operations and consequently do not generally cause significant
alternative processes or costs.

Employees

As
of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately 158 full-time employees and 141 part-time employees. In addition, the Company hires
additional employees for seasonal work as required. The Company’s employees are not represented by any collective bargaining unit.
The Company believes it maintains positive relations with its employees.
