Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits chairman Harvey Chaplin, the entrepreneur who turned a modest Florida spirits and wine distributorship into a national multibillion-dollar powerhouse, died June 9, at the age of 95, of natural causes.
“Harvey was undoubtedly one of the great pioneers and visionaries in our industry,” said Marvin R. Shanken, editor and publisher of Wine Spectator. “He left an indelible mark on the wine and spirits business.”

With reverence for time and place, Lazy Bear is an ode to California where guests dine in concert with the season and can explore diverse wines, including an impressive collection of older California vintages.
