Baril Compliance Service

What Our Clients Have To Say:

These are just a few of the satisfied clients for which we handle the compliance:

Toad Hollow Vineyards

Toad Hollow Vineyards has used BCS since 1994 to do our wine compliance. We have nothing but praise for the competence and professionalism shown by Elise and her associates. Our company started with 3,000 cases of one varietal released in 1994 and distributed in only a few states. We have since grown to fifteen wines and are distributed in 48 states. By using BCS we have been able to concentrate on marketing and have kept our payroll down thanks to not having to hire in-house compliance employees. We highly recommend BCS to any winery needing assistance in the compliance field for ABC, TTB, wholesale or direct to consumer.

Epic Wines

BCS and Epic Wines have been doing business together since 1997. As the national market for Epic Wines' has grown, so has our enthusiasm over the terrific service we've received from Elise and her staff. I often comment that the monthly fees we pay for wine compliance are the greatest bargain going. It would be impossible for us to hire in-house staffing for anywhere close to their monthly fee. Aside from the cost-savings, the expertise is unsurpassed; we have used other compliance services in the past and have found BCS to be the most informative, helpful and cost-effective.

Downing Family Vineyards

BCS rocks! We used BCS during the crucial startup phase of our winery in 2002, when correct compliance was critical. Elise and her entire crew were unbelievably helpful in this early stage, making sure we had the proper winery compliance in place before we sold wine. We continue to use BCS for our monthly compliance because they make our business easy! They handle our wholesale and our direct to consumer (direct shipping) compliance. We can count on BCS to be well informed on current compliance issues and regulations, offer excellent advice, and give very fast turnaround service.

KitFox Vineyards

Just a brief testimonial about Elise Baril and her team at BCS. My company approached Elise to handle a transfer of our alternating premise from one location to another. While this is normally a fairly simple process we had a great number of issues that went beyond the normal change-over for this ABC compliance/TTB compliance job. I was extremely impressed with the extra mile that Elise's team went to get us set with the TTB/ABC. While they had no idea what they were getting into, they handled every obstacle quickly and with supreme professionalism. The follow-up was the most impressive and I can honestly say I can think of no other group of wine professionals who could have done a better job. We are grateful to have had their services at our disposal and I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for compliance support and help with the TTB and ABC compliance. Top notch folks!

Harlan Estate

Running the show all by myself, I find Elise's wine compliance services invaluable for wholesale and direct shipping. She takes care of the details I, frankly, can never find time for. And she does it efficiently, economically, and this is the best bit - cheerfully! She's great. Since 1995.

Don Weaver (707) 944-1441

ASV Wines

I have been working with Elise since 1993, and I have found her to be very well organized and thorough. Our company sells control brands to the trade and we have multiple brands in multiple distributors throughout the country. BCS has a firm grasp of our complicated distribution network and always gives us superior wine compliance service. I don't know what I'd do without her.

Jeff Dye (707) 252-5352

Sawyer Cellars

Elise and staff are every winery's dream come true. If you wish the chore completed yesterday just ask and not only will the request be completed, it will be completed in a timely manner, efficiently and correctly. All requests are accepted with a smile and good cheer. Professionalism is the operating code for BCS. It has been a pleasure to work with BCS since 2006 for wholesale and direct to consumer compliance.

Michelle Castle (707) 963-1980

Longboard Vineyards

I love to brag about our use of BCS, because they are absolutely, unconditionally, the final word on great winery compliance work for wholesale and direct shipping! Elise and her Team are experts on keeping all of our needs in good order. They do it with very cost-effective rates, with patience, with timely reminders, and with a smile, since 2006. You can't ask for more than that!!

Oded Shakked (707) 433-3473

Charles Creek Vineyards

After working with you since July 2003, I would like to commend you on the things we most appreciate about your wine compliance services. You and your staff are always available to respond to a wide variety of questions and if the answer isn't immediately available, it will be in a very short time. You anticipate for us the things we may need to do as the rules and laws are constantly changing. You provide suggestions that can make our efforts more productive. Your charges seem reasonable in this complicated arena. But mostly, I appreciate the friendly responsive service I receive with every phone call, fax or email. Thank you for being there.

Gerry Brinton (707) 996-6622

Limerick Lane Cellars

BCS is a company of smiling faces willing to do the most arduous and vital work of wine compliance. BCS is precise, accurate, timely and on the ball. With their prompting it is easy to stay current on licenses, reports, taxes and all those other mundane tasks our governments require us to perform when shipping alcohol. If you add up what it takes a winery to be compliant in dollars per hour, BCS is definitely the best way to go. Since 2006.

Peter Leary (707) 433-9211

Ty Caton Vineyards

When I started Ty Caton Vineyards in 2004, I started with BCS and it has been one of the best decisions I have made. By taking care of all the little details, they afford me the time to concentrate on what I should be doing, which is making and selling wine. They definitely know their wine compliance business. My various state licenses and monthly compliances are always taken care of with little effort on my part. If I ever have any inquiries about doing business in a new state, they always have all the answers at hand. Their timeliness and efficiency makes my life easier. Doing business with BCS is good business, for wholesale and direct to consumer sales.

Handley Cellars

BCS has been doing our winery compliance exclusively since June 1995. Elise handled our wine compliance for several years prior to that when she did the out-of-state compliance at Sara Schorske Compliance Specialists. She is expert, professional, reasonably priced and easy to work with. As a growing family-based winery, we don't have time to handle all of our own compliance. Elise has helped us to keep up the details of our compliance needs.

Milla Handley (707) 895-2190

Cliff Lede Vineyards

I have worked directly with Elise and her team for many years, both in my role as Managing Director of Swanson Vineyards and as General Manager of Cliff Lede Vineyards/S. Anderson Vineyard. Their work is unfailingly accurate and timely. Wine compliance and regulatory paperwork is done right the first time. I can recommend Elise without hesitation.

Michael Updegraff (800) 428-2259

Artesa Winery

I've had the pleasure of doing business with BCS since 1998. Everyone in the office is always friendly, efficient and accommodating. BCS has made sure new brand lines are out on time with no loss of sales, and respond to requests quickly. Well worth the monthly fee.

Colette Benge 707) 224-9601

Turnbull Wine Cellars

BCS has been responsible for our United States legal compliance since 1995. During that time we have found her to be knowledgeable, efficient, affordable as well as a pleasure to work with. We are happy to recommend her without reservation for wholesale and direct to consumer wine shipping compliance.

Tersilla Gregory (707) 963-5839

Husic Vineyards

Starting with the first day I had contact with BCS, each telephone call to your company impressed me. You and your staff are professionals in the old school sense. I was always greeted with politeness and no question asked was ignored. Thank you for your assistance, and for making the wine compliance portion of my responsibilities so easy.
Julie Husic (415) 752-8793

Glazer's Wholesale

As a wholesaler in today's marketplace it gives me peace of mind to know that there are people and companies out there like BCS doing wine shipping compliance. We have worked on many projects together over the years and BCS has always maintained a very professional relationship with us. Their level of service is above and beyond what you would expect. I look forward to working with Elise and the girls for many years to come.

Tom Blando 816) 876-2151

Trinitas Cellars

BCS is exceptionally good at what they do. Our winery never has to worry about time consuming licensing, approvals, renewals and taxes. BCS takes care of it all (wholesale and direct to consumer wine shipping compliance) since 2003. We would be lost without them.

Jen Heim (707) 287-6391

Ca' Momi Fine Wines

I have used the services of BCS over several years with various wineries that I have been involved with and I have always found them to be, knowledgeable, prompt, professional and a pleasure to work with. They are the best and highly recommended.

Jimmy Smith (707) 252-6664

Rutherford Wine Company

We have been utilizing BCS since January 2008. They have grown to be a valuable and consistent resource in helping organize and manage the complexities of state brand registration and winery compliance. Elise and her team have a clear understanding of our customer service needs and are committed trained professionals. We would recommend BCS to any winery large or small.

Margaret Hill (707) 968-3226

Leonhardt Vineyards

We are a relatively new winery (2009) and we were overwhelmed with the complexities of CA ABC, TTB, wholesale compliance and state registration filings. BCS made it easy for us. Their service is outstanding. In many instances we needed to get registrations in place in order to participate in important wine festivals and with short notice BCS was able to get it done which resulted in significant sales for us that would have been missed if it were not for their quick work. They have become true partners in our business in a much bigger way than just regulatory filings. Their kind advice provided from their extensive experience has helped us build the Leonhardt Vineyards brand up quickly to be one of the most recognized in the bay area. We highly recommend BCS!

Howard J. Leonhardt

Omniwines Distributing Company

BCS is much more than a wine compliance service, but a team which is able to integrate itself to our organization and understand our needs by providing ideal support & professionalism. Each and every one of the BCS team lives up to this reputation "It's like the co-worker you can't do without!" Since 2008.

Carmine DeGennaro (718) 353-8700

Boisineau International

I would like to congratulate and gratefully acknowledge BCS and all its employees for doing a miraculous, first class job in all facets of our industry. While representing professional athletes and their businesses and co-producing some television shows, I inherited a wine project that ultimately took us over ten years to our own wine destiny. Quite frankly, there is only one reason why we were successful, BCS. They are extremely organized, professional and always, always on top of every situation and detail. I am so lucky to have them. I will never change, period. They are the best! Since 2009.

Three Wine Company

Matt and I have been working with BCS for since 2000. The staff is very knowledgeable and efficient and will help you navigate through the laborious job of wine compliance. BCS understands the importance of customer service. The staff is friendly, professional, and can address your questions or concerns immediately. It gives us piece of mind that our monthly reporting is in good hands.

Matt and Erin Cline (707) 933-9752

St. Helena Winery Accounting and Finance

I have worked with Elise Baril and BCS since 2003 at three wineries. We chose BCS at Rosenblum Cellars after performing a thorough search among many wine compliance service candidates. When I arrived at Kuleto Estate, I called BCS in the first month. And now as an independent consultant, I was pleasantly surprised to find BCS already in place at Leonhardt Vineyards. I can't begin to describe how valuable and effective Elise Baril and her team are. At all three companies, they helped us assess our wine compliance situation, corrected our compliance problems across all states, and got us new direct shipping permits as states like NY, FL and TX came available. Each year working with Elise and her company, I continue to be impressed with Elise and her firm's professionalism, customer service, and knowledge. Unless you're a winery selling ten million cases per year and employing a thousand compliance specialists, I would recommend BCS to your winery.
