Maverick Beverage Company represents a new era in beverage distribution in the United States. We are the result of a shared vision of like-minded, independent fine wine and craft spirits distributors from across the country. Starting with Maverick Wine Company in 2002, we have grown and forged new partnerships now spanning six states, coming together with Victory Wine Group Texas, Quench Fine Wines Arizona, Progress Wine Group Florida, and Maverick Wine Minnesota (all distributors that were aligned under Palomar Beverage Company).

Starting in 2023 we are united under one brand, Maverick Beverage Company. Together we have the resources and reach to remain relevant and compete in markets increasingly dominated by a handful of large wholesalers while operating independently to better serve each market and deliver for our customers and suppliers. There is no other distributor of our size focusing specifically on fine wine and craft spirits.
