I was just like you in April, I heard it mentioned here a few times. So I did some research. Its the parent company of Philip Morris tobacco company. However I did a bit more research and found that they own a slew of Wine Estates up and down the west coast, 17 in total.
With the amount of wine that is consumed at my house I had to buy into it, been keeping them in buisness for years and didn't know it. LOL
Its been a good stock.
