Corrugated cases filled with wine bottles at McManis Family Winery.

McManis Family Winery in Ripon, CA, receives empty bottles in two very different formats. When the firm is contract filling for a customer, typically it’s corrugated reshippers in which the glass bottles arrive. When filling a McManis brand, it’s palletized bulk glass.
