Victor Schwartz, owner of V.O.S. Selections, a wine-importing company, celebrated a federal trade court ruling that reversed Trump’s "Liberation Day" tariffs. Schwartz claimed these tariffs posed an existential threat. While the ruling was temporarily halted, it spotlighted his nearly 40-year endeavor to bring diverse wines to the U.S. Schwartz expressed mixed feelings about the ruling, proud of the unanimous legal opinion but aware of ongoing challenges. His company, which imports from 16 countries, depends on stable relationships in the alcoholic beverage market, now threatened by tariffs.
"I did not start this business 39 years ago with the idea of suing the president of the United States... I wanted to find interesting, delicious wines."
"It was a great victory, and it was such a clear, unanimous, strong opinion. That's what was very satisfying about it."
