Fractional CFO Services for Vineyards & Wineries

Common Financial Challenges in the Wine Industry

Many vineyard and winery owners experience:

• Cash flow gaps between harvest, production, and sales

• Limited visibility into inventory value and aging wine

• Margin differences between tasting room, wholesale, and distribution

• Capital-intensive decisions around land, equipment, and barrels

• Financial reporting that explains the past but doesn’t guide the future

These challenges require strategic financial leadership, not just accounting.
