Subterra Introduces New California Wine Expressions

3 Badge Beverage Corporation’s Subterra Wines Expands Lineup with Approachably Priced Wines Crafted to Meet Today’s Consumer Trends

SONOMA, California (February 27, 2026) – Subterra, part of the 3 Badge Beverage Corporation portfolio, is expanding its California lineup with the release of four new wine expressions—an evolution designed to meet today’s consumer preferences for approachable, versatile wines that deliver outstanding quality at an accessible price. Anchored by thoughtful sourcing and a cohesive $17 SRP, the new releases reinforce Subterra’s commitment to wines that overdeliver for everyday occasions.

Led by August Sebastiani, President of 3 Badge Beverage Corporation and a fourth-generation member of a longstanding winemaking family, Subterra is built on the idea of uncovering what lies beneath the surface. That philosophy shapes the wines and the subtle label refresh, drawing from the Sebastiani family’s early 1900s history before even entering the wine trade, carting cobblestones to San Francisco. The label features an illustrated stone barn set in wine country as a nod to those roots. Subtle silvery-gold accents highlight the Subterra name, reflecting the pale metallic flecks often found in natural stone.

“Consumers are looking for wines that feel effortless—great on a weeknight, great for gathering, and still a strong value,” said August Sebastiani. “These new releases stay true to what matters most – thoughtful sourcing, balance, and a price point that fits the everyday budget.”

The expanded lineup includes four California expressions, all bottled under the California appellation, selected for quality and character.
