Johnson Brothers, family-owned and operated since 1953, today announced the expansion of its partnership with Napa Valley’s Cliff Lede Vineyards to Colorado, Nevada, and Texas. The portfolio will be managed by the Johnson Brothers Maverick and Oxford Street Merchants divisions.
Cliff Lede wines have been represented in Arizona for more than 20 years by Maverick Beverage Company, which Johnson Brothers acquired in 2025. The expanded agreement builds on that long-standing relationship and brings the acclaimed Napa Valley portfolio to additional Johnson Brothers markets.
Founded in 2002 and located in Napa Valley’s renowned Stag’s Leap District, Cliff Lede Vineyards is known for producing expressive, site-driven wines that reflect the character of the region. The winery’s portfolio includes acclaimed Cabernet Sauvignon and Bordeaux-style blends recognized by critics and consumers alike.
“Cliff Lede Vineyards has been a valued partner for more than two decades, and we are proud to continue growing our relationship,” said Ryan Schwartz, President of Luxury, Johnson Brothers. “Their commitment to quality and their strong reputation within Napa Valley make them an outstanding addition to our portfolio in these additional markets.”
“We’re excited to continue working with Johnson Brothers Maverick to introduce our wines to more consumers across Colorado, Texas, and Nevada,” says Jason Lede, Chief Operating Officer & General Manager of Cliff Lede Vineyards. “Our wines have a strong following in these states, and we look forward to building upon our successful partnership.”
