Paterno Changes Name to Terlato Wines International
The change affirms the Terlato family's ongoing commitment to quality and pays tribute to Anthony J. Terlato, the man who built the luxury wine marketing company.
02/03/07 William A. Terlato, President and CEO of Terlato Wine Group, announced that Paterno Wines International has been renamed Terlato Wines International. The change affirms the Terlato family's ongoing commitment to quality and pays tribute to Anthony J. Terlato, the man who built the luxury wine marketing company.
Chairman of Terlato Wine Group and Terlato Wines International, Anthony J. Terlato is today recognized as a prominent vintner, crafting premium wines that exemplify his family's passion for innovation and excellence. But it was his vision and bold leadership over a half-century that built Terlato Wines International -- and in the process, helped reshape the wine industry.
"For decades, our father worked to create a business that was a worthy tribute to our grandfather, Anthony Paterno," said William A. Terlato. "He succeeded in that endeavor, as he has in every aspect of the wine industry -- retailing, distribution, importing, marketing and now as a producer of quality wines. With today's announcement, my brother John and I are proud to honor our father, and to renew our family's commitment to the tradition of excellence he established."
