Grant Burge Wines sells around 450,000 cases of wine in Australia each year, and ranks among the nation’s 10 biggest-selling wine brands. Accolade Wines acquired the business in early 2015 and has appointed Jeff Bond as general manager. His task will be to turn around Grant Burge’s fortunes, after it posted a loss of $A9.4m in 2013-14. This followed a modest profit of $A264,247 in the previous fiscal year. Revenue was $A40.4m in 2013-14, compared with $A43.2m previously.
