Hatten Wines, Bali’s first and oldest winery, proudly celebrates its 30th anniversary, marking three decades of dedication to quality and innovation in the wine industry. Since its founding in 1994, Hatten Wines has cultivated a unique winemaking tradition, utilizing both international and heritage grape varieties grown in Bali’s distinct island vineyards. Today, the winery stands as a leader in the local market and a respected name in the global wine community.
A Legacy of Quality and Innovation
Hatten Wines began its journey in 1994 through its subsidiary, PT Arpan Bali Utama, and officially commenced operations under PT Hatten Bali in 2000. From its humble beginnings with a single rosé wine crafted from the native Bali grape variety, Alphonse Lavallée, the winery has grown exponentially. Hatten Wines now manages in total about 60 hectares of vineyards in Singaraja, Bali, producing a diverse range of wines that reflect the island’s unique terroir.
The winery’s product portfolio has expanded over the years to include three distinctive brands: Hatten Wines, TWO Islands, TWO Islands Reserve and Dragonfly Wines. These brands collectively offer 30 wine variants (Hatten Wines has 13 items, TWO Islands has 11 items, TWO Islands Reserve has 4 items and Dragonfly Wines has 2 items), with more on the horizon, including the highly anticipated TWO Islands Prosecco set to launch in October 2024.
A Milestone Achievement: IPO and Beyond
On January 10, 2023, Hatten Wines reached a significant milestone by completing an Initial Public Offering (IPO) on the Indonesian Stock Exchange, trading under the symbol ‘WINE.’ This achievement underscores the company’s enduring success and its ambition to expand its reach and influence in the world of fine wines.
Hatten Wines, trading under the ticker symbol “WINE,” continues to show promising financial performance in the stock market. The company’s stock is currently trading with a Price-to-Earnings (P/E) ratio of 19.03x and a Price-to-Book (P/B) value of 2.90x. The company reported a net profit of IDR 27 billion for the first semester of 2024, marking a significant increase of 19.5% compared to the same period in 2023. Additionally, the company’s income surged in the first quarter of 2024, with a reported profit of IDR 14.8 billion, reflecting a 19.8% increase quarter-on-quarter (QoQ). This financial growth is underpinned by the company’s strategic market positioning and the recovery of Bali’s tourism industry.
