In addition, a key benefit of the solution is its wildfire risk prevention offering in partnership with Green Shield Risk Solutions and FireBreak Risk, which provides the tools to understand how wildfire is likely to interact with properties and identify potential structural vulnerabilities.
Furthermore, premium rebates and financial incentives are available for those wineries that prove they adhere to the highest standards in wildfire risk mitigation, in accordance to the recommendations provided by these two complementary resources.
In addition to wildfire, the solution includes comprehensive ‘all-risks’ coverage for flood and earthquake, leakage, external contamination, failure to maintain temperature, processing errors and extra expense, among others. Selling price valuation is also available for finished product, for wine in production and for irreplaceable harvested grapes.
Louise Rothschild, director of cargo and stock throughput at BMS, said: “Extreme weather conditions, exposure to wildfire, contamination, handling errors, issues during transport, among others, are some of the daily concerns of winemakers. They face a challenging landscape that is fraught with risks, and which calls for a bespoke approach that takes the particularities of the industry into account. Wine is not only a booming business, but also an art, and a labour of love. BMS Bacchus was born out of the wish to provide some peace of mind to passionate winemakers, ensuring they can focus on what they do best.”
