Vinarchy has commenced full distribution of the portfolio of wine brands it acquired form Pernod Ricard, including Jacob’s Creek, Stoneleigh, Church Road and Campo Viejo.
The transition, marks a major milestone since the completion of the merger of Accolade Wines and Pernod Ricard Winemakers to create Vinarchy earlier this year.
These brands can now be ordered directly through Vinarchy in Australia and New Zealand, following the conclusion of a short transitional distribution arrangement with Pernod Ricard.
The transition is backed by dedicated local teams in both markets, including a newly formed commercial team in New Zealand under General Manager Kiri Hyde to create a market-leading wine business and accelerate the growth of Vinarchy’s exceptional global and regional brands.
Vinarchy Managing Director, Australia and Zealand Andrew Clarke said: “This is a major milestone for Vinarchy, enabling us to work even more closely with our trade partners across our portfolio of incredible brands.
“We are excited to be able to deliver an even stronger wine focus and offer for our customers and consumers and look forward to working together to grow the wine category.”
Vinarchy will continue to partner with Hancocks in New Zealand to distribute and represent the legacy Accolade portfolio of brands including Grant Burge, Mud House and Jam Shed.
In other markets around the world, Vinarchy has partnered with local distributors to ensure continuity and growth of the brands.
Vinarchy was created in May 2025 through the merger of Accolade Wines and Pernod Ricard’s wine portfolios in Australia, New Zealand and Spain, making Vinarchy one of the world’s largest dedicated wine companies.
