Family-owned Foley Family Wines announced that the company has changed its name and corporate identity to reflect its ongoing expansion into the distilled spirits business while it continues to grow the luxury and estate wine business that began nearly three decades ago. The new name is Foley Family Wines & Spirits. Bill and Carol Foley founded Foley Family Wines in 1996 after purchasing their first winery and vineyards in 1995, named Lincourt Vineyards after their daughters Lindsay and Courtney. The company grew its holdings in California’s Santa Barbara County and began to gain visibility and global distribution as it expanded into Napa and Sonoma. Foley made some of the industry’s most significant luxury estate acquisitions in the years that followed, and in 2023, the company expanded into distilled spirits to diversify its consumer base and complement its ultra-premium and luxury wine business.
