| Description of Business | Description of Business The Duckhorn Portfolio, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “the Company,” “Management,” “we,” “us,” “our” and “Duckhorn”), headquartered in St. Helena, California, produce luxury and ultra-luxury wine across a portfolio of winery brands, including Duckhorn Vineyards, Decoy, Sonoma-Cutrer, Goldeneye, Paraduxx, Migration, Canvasback, Calera, Kosta Browne, Greenwing and Postmark. The Company’s revenue is comprised of sales to distributors and direct to trade accounts in California (“wholesale”) and direct to consumer (“DTC”). Wholesale revenue is generated through sales to distributors and directly to retailers and restaurants in California, sales to distributors and agents located in other states throughout the United States (“U.S.”) and sales to export distributors that sell internationally. DTC revenue results from individual consumers purchasing wine directly from the Company through club membership, the Company’s website or tasting rooms located in Napa Valley, California; Anderson Valley, California; Sebastopol, California; Hollister, California; Windsor, California; and Walla Walla, Washington. The Company owns or controls, through long-term leases, certain high-quality vineyards throughout Northern and Central California and Washington. Vinification takes place at wineries owned, leased or under contract with third parties predominately located in Napa Valley, California; Anderson Valley, California; Hopland, California; Hollister, California; San Luis Obispo, California; Sebastopol, California; Windsor, California; and Walla Walla, Washington.
