Keel and Curley Winery, the Plant City winery that's also the home of Two Henrys Brewing Co., is now up for sale, according to the Tampa Bay Business Journal.
- Joe Keel founded Keel and Curley Winery in 2003
- Keel's wines sold at Publix, Total Wine and Spirits
- Business brings in $4 million annually
The sale reportedly includes two separate farms where the blueberries and peaches that make up Keel and Curley's wines grow. Production facilities, including the Two Henrys Tasting Room and gift shop, are also part of the package.
Winery founder Joe Keel, 61, said the motive behind the sale is in part generational. Keel's two sons, though they have worked for the winery in the past, have other careers and are not interested in carrying on the business.
Tampa business mergers and acquisitions firm Washington Partners is handling the sale, according to Tampa Bay Business Journal Finance Editor Margie Manning.
The winery, founded by Joe Keel in 2003, currently produces 19 varieties of wine, beer, and hard cider. Keel started offering Two Henrys Brewing Co. products in his tasting room in 2013.
The winery reportedly brings in a total annual revenue of around $4 million.
