Blavod Extreme Spirits has extended its distribution agreement with the Moretti family.

The company said today (6 May) that it had been granted distribution rights for the US and the UK for the family's Contadi Castaldi winery in Northern Italy. The deal extends the existing agreement between BES and the Moretti family. BES currently distributes wine from the family's Petra wineries in the US and the UK.

Vittorio Moretti, president and founder of Terra Moretti, said: "We are developing an excellent partnership with BES. They have already proven that they can deliver a winning formula with our Petra wineries. We are delighted to extend this successful relationship with them to include our Contadi Castaldi wines. We look forward to working more closely together."

Blavod Extreme Spirits' CEO, Jeff Hopmayer, said: "Contadi Castaldi is one of the most prestigious wine producers in the world. Their world-class sparkling wine is peerless in quality and gives consumers a modern alternative in a celebratory wine. We are excited to work with them to further their advanced approach to the market."
