Constellation Brands

ranked among the largest companies specializing in the production and marketing of wine in North America. It has many outlet wineries in Canada and the U.S. Since its inception, the company has grown immensely both domestically and internationally. The growth is attributed to the development and marketing of the company’s major brand of Inniskillin Ice-wine. Roger Provost is behind the international success of Inniskillin Ice-wine, which relied on the exclusive distribution channels. However, the recent takeover of the company by Constellation Brands Inc. threatens the exclusive distribution channel and originality of the Inniskillin Ice-wine brands. This paper presents a case study on the…

If you look to the north, you may find Cepheus looking down on you as he rules the skies with his wife, Cassiopeia, by his side. I chose this constellation because I have seen his name mentioned in relation with Andromeda as I am very interested in Greek mythology. I also thought that a story about a king would be quite interesting. Cepheus is one of the constellations originally listed by the great astronomer, Ptolemy, and now remains as one of the modern constellations. The constellation's…

the “Draco” constellation because I really like dragons and I searched the history and I liked it. Its name means “dragon” in Latin, this constellation represents the dragon from the gardens of the Hesperides in Greek mythology. Draco was catalogued by a Greek astronomer Ptolemy in the 2nd century, it is a circumpolar constellation; it never sets below the horizon. This is the larger largest constellation in the night sky; it has nine stars and one Messier object. MYTHS: In the Greek myth…

My favourite constellation is the Pegasus because it's myth/legend is very interesting and it is a very unique creature to me. The Pegasus lies in the Northern Hemisphere and it is the seventh largest constellation in the sky, occupying an area of 1121 square degrees. This constellation is made up with 9 stars--Scheat, Matar, Salm, Algenib and Markab. The brightest is Markab. This constellation's name came from Pegasus, a white winged horse. The most famous/well-known Greek myth involving…

figures. You, probably have heard of the Big dipper, Little Dipper, Ursa Minor, Ursa Major, and Orion. These are the most well known and popular constellations and asterisms. An asterism is a group of stars that is not a constellation, but is well known by many astronomers. The history of how constellations came to be is amazing. Things including people, the discovery, why they were used, and how the sky was divided are all factors of the history of constellations. Today's current…

Of the 88 official constellations, Orion, the Hunter, would be my absolute favorite for countless reasons. One of these being Orion is associated with specific personality traits that I find very important and some of which I possess myself. The personality linked with this constellation is a very strong and opinionated personality, with a desire to ask questions and understand things. Being a RavenClaw, I love to learn and understand new things and I seem to question everything. I have my own…

Have you ever wondered why the night sky in the winter may look different to you than the night sky in the summer or fall? This is because we see the constellations at different times of the year for the different seasons- spring, summer, fall, and winter. Since the Earth orbits the Sun we do not get one constant area of constellations. The constellations we see in the summer are not the same ones we see in the winter. We never see the same constellation all year long. Unless the constellation…

The constellation I have chosen is found on the celestial equator, and is one of the most recognisable constellations in the world; Orion, named after a hunter in Greek mythology. Orion is made up of seven main stars that make something of an 'hourglass' shape, with four stars making a rectangle-like shape; Betelgeuse and Bellatrix making up his 'shoulders', and Saiph and Rigel making up his 'feet'. This rectangle is then tethered in at the middle by three stars to finish off the hourglass shape…

The constellation that I've chosen is Andromeda- the chained woman. I've chosen that constellation because the myth interest me. Basically Andromeda was named the chained woman because she was chained to the rock because her mother said she was more beautiful than the Nereids. In ancient Greece Cepheus and Cassiopeia had a daughter named Andromeda. One day Cassiopeia boasted to everyone and anyone how Andromeda was more beautiful than the Nereids, the nymph-daughters of the sea-god…
