# Constellation Brands

https://croissantbaguette.com.au/projects/constellation-brands/

We built the Shopify theme behind Constellation Brands' Fine Wine & Craft Spirits stores in AU and NZ: ten brands, member pricing, every section editable.

Client: Wine and spirits producer, global · Industry: Wine & spirits · Services: Ecommerce · Stack: Shopify, Liquid, Theme editor · Date: 2026-05 · Live site: https://cbfinewine.com.au

**Outcomes**
- **AU + NZ stores on one theme** — the same sections and blocks on both storefronts, each with its own settings
- **10 brands on one storefront** — from Robert Mondavi and The Prisoner to High West, each with its own page
- **0 code changes to edit a page** — every section and block is set in the Shopify theme editor

## A global brand, and a theme that could not keep up.

Constellation Brands is one of the world's largest producers of wine and spirits. Its Fine Wine & Craft Spirits arm sells Robert Mondavi, The Prisoner, Schrader, High West and the rest of the portfolio direct to customers in Australia and New Zealand. The theme behind those stores could not keep up with the brands, and the brief was bigger than one site: the same premium experience on both storefronts, cleared by a digital team in the United States, on the corporate-approved Shopify platform, to enterprise standards for policies, privacy and age verification.

## A custom theme, built for the theme editor.

We designed and built the theme from a clean base, not a marketplace theme with a logo swapped in. Every section and block is defined for Shopify's theme editor, so the team rearranges pages, swaps brand showcases and changes copy without touching code, and both stores run the same theme with their own settings. Multi-brand showcases, a page per house, member pricing behind a sign-up, critic scores and awards on the bottle, and filtering by the things wine buyers filter by.

## Enterprise standards, met once.

A company this size ships with paperwork: age verification on entry, responsible-drinking notices, privacy and personal-information controls, terms per market, and a review process run from another timezone. The build went through all of it once, so the Australian and New Zealand stores share the same approved base and the same policies, and a change to one is a change to both.

## The numbers.

No traffic or sales figures are published for this client.

## Theirs, in Shopify.

The theme lives in Constellation's own Shopify stores, versioned, with every setting in the theme editor. Nothing depends on us to change a page.

- **Shopify** both storefronts, checkout and members
- **Liquid** the theme, its sections and blocks
- **Theme editor** every page, arranged by the team
