In order to succeed in the U.S., Yellow Tail had to be easy to understand. “The thinking was to create a certain level of simplicity. We wanted to give the consumers what they wanted,” said Deutsche. This meant creating a wine that went down as easily as grape juice.

So many wines from established regions tell the consumer what they should like, but we just wanted to give them what they wanted.”
