US-based hybrid packaging supplier Berlin Packaging has expanded its in-stock wine bottle offerings to cater to small and mid-size wineries.
The company has introduced a variety of premium glass bottles designed for immediate shipment, which can be used for any vintage and varietal.
The designs are available in claret, tapered claret and burgundy styles in both clear and antique green, with cork and ROPE finish.
They can be bought from Berlin Packaging’s website or through its global network of more than 150 sales team members.
The company hopes the expansion will ensure supply chain stability for winemakers of all sizes.
Berlin Packaging Napa regional vice-president Joseph Azevedo said: “The Covid-19 pandemic, tariffs and other factors have disrupted the glass market over the last year, making in-stock packaging more important than ever.
