Aequitas Wine Holdings, Inc.
A producer-led holding company for distinctive wine in the American market.
Aequitas is the parent above two California houses — Viridian Wine Co., the importer, and Cobalt Wine Agency, the editorial and press partner. Aequitas endorses and governs; the houses face the customer.
The Houses
Two customer-facing houses, one producer commitment.
A clean separation of roles: one owns commerce, the other owns culture. Both serve the same distinctive producers.
Viridian Wine Co.
Modern wine representation — importer of record, wholesale, portfolio, allocation, and direct consumer access. Owns every commercial conversation with the trade and the consumer.
viridianwine.com →Cobalt Wine Agency
Press, events, education, content, and editorial — the cultural surface around a producer. Builds the story and hands the commercial conversation to Viridian.
cobaltwineagency.com →Structure
Built so producers share in the value they help create.
A producer-led operating model — run by the founder, supported by participating producers, and governed for the long term.
Aligned ownership
A partnership between operator and producer, structured so the people who supply the wine and build the market participate in the enterprise they sustain.
The houses face the customer
Aequitas carries governance, ownership, and capital. Viridian and Cobalt carry the customer relationship. The parent endorses; the houses deliver.
Long-term by design
An operating company built for recurring service and lasting producer relationships — not a single vintage, a single market, or a single cycle.
The Name
"Aequitas" — the Latin for equity, fairness, and even-handed balance.
