Bacchus Wine & Spirits Ranks Among Elite 'Top 20' Nationwide in Beverage Dynamics Top 100 Retailers for 2023

MILLBRAE, Calif. - June 23, 2023 - PRLog -- Bacchus Wine & Spirits, a specialty full-service retail merchant of fine wines and spirits located in the San Francisco Bay Area, announced today that it has again placed among the prestigious Top 20 winners of Beverage Dynamics Top 100 Retailers for 2023, moving up a spot to #19. This award recognizes retailers throughout the country who demonstrate innovation, excellent customer service and superior beverage alcohol industry knowledge. It is the fifth year in a row that Bacchus has been named to this list.

Bacchus Proprietor Quinton Jay accepted the award presented by the Beverage Alcohol Retailers conference, which held its formal awards gala in June in St. Louis, Missouri.

"In the past year, the success of our recently launched wine bar is testament to the fact that people are once again enjoying social activities," said Quinton Jay of Bacchus Wine & Spirits. "We believe that there is nothing quite like gathering together and enjoying great food and wine, so we've ramped up our in-person events. Our monthly Club Member pickup parties, prime rib dinners featuring Pape Meat, Texas-style barbeque pop-ups from highly-acclaimed Smokin' D BBQ, and wine education classes with our CMS-certified sommelier Mary Morris, are back and stronger than ever."

Bacchus attracts a large local and national following due to its hand-selected wines and the fact that it carries the Bay Area's largest selection of whiskeys, including hard-to-find Pappy Van Winkle and hidden gems like Asaka Distillery's Japanese Whisky's U.S. debut. Bacchus Wine & Spirits also has a strong community presence as a donor and host of events that support local schools in the community.

New Partnership Enables Businesses to Sell and Ship Alcohol Online

Traditionally, selling alcohol online and across state lines has posed a number of legal, regulatory, and compliance challenges. Quinton Jay recently launched a partnership with Coasters, the #1 compliant shipper of alcohol sold online, that enables any business to quickly and easily sell and ship alcohol online. Operating out of eight states within the U.S., Coasters' network of fulfillment locations allows orders to be legally shipped to 12 states. This allows businesses to increase their online sales and capture more of the $16 billion U.S. alcohol eCommerce market—without the legal and logistical hassles.
