In February, we've attended actually two very important trade shows.
The first was an international trade show in Paris called Vine Paris, where there were thousands and thousands of producers.

Now, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's dead forever, but it's dead for another year.
For importation, we get all of our barrels from France.
We get all of our corks from Portugal and much of our bottles from outside of the United States.
So unfortunately, those three primary pieces of our business have all been impacted.

The first round of tariffs, there was a slight bit of warning.
And so there was a lot of cost sharing across the board.
This time, we don't have that time to think and work together.
So my expectation is that it will hurt us even more because we don't really know what to expect based upon the way the tariffs are being discussed now, which would be 150 days.
