Description

Biographical or Historical Note

California Wine Association was formed during the depression of 1894 from seven leading California wine firms, in order to raise prices and stimulate trade. The C.W.A. became a syndicate or cartel, the single buyer for ripe grapes from winegrowers. The wine wars of the 1890s, between growers and distributors, helped stabilize the quality of California wine.
