New York, NY (January 7, 2026) – Marcado 28, a small-batch tequila from Chefs Michael and Bryan Voltaggio, Master Tequilero Bruno Barba, and Spirits That Rock LLC, has selected Constantine Wines as its distributor to manage the premium brand's expansion into Maryland, Delaware, and Washington, DC.
Born from the legendary Romo family that invented Reposado and elevated by the palate of Michelin-starred chef Michael Voltaggio, Marcado 28 Blanco and Reposado tequilas honor 10 generations of distilling expertise and time-honored, traditional techniques — slow-roasting agave and crafting tequila from three all-natural ingredients: water, 100% blue Weber agave from the Tequila Valleys of Jalisco, Mexico, and yeast.
"We offer a carefully selected and extensive beverage portfolio of products that exceed expectations in every category to Maryland, Delaware, and Washington DC," said Gus Kalaris, Founder & Owner, Constantine Wines. "Marcado 28 is an authentic premium tequila that masterfully unites tradition and innovation."
"Gus and his team at Constantine Wines are among the best in the business," said Phil Hurst, Founder, CEO, PLH Wine & Spirits. "Their industry knowledge, relationships, and passion for premium spirits will serve us well as we launch Marcado 28 Tequila into these three key northeastern states."
Marcado 28 Blanco is the purest form of Tequila; clear, unaged and unaltered, while Marcado 28 Reposado acquires a rich golden hue that whispers tales of time and tradition after aging for eight months in American oak barrels. Both expressions received high praise from Wine Enthusiast magazine, which rated the Blanco ($50) and Reposado ($60) with 94 and 93 points, respectively.
