The $637,500 Crimson Wine Group settlement received preliminary approval from the court on March 26, 2026. The deal covers all United States residents whose private information was accessed and/or acquired by an unauthorized third party as a result of the data breach reported by Crimson Wine Group in June 2024.

Court documents state that the class action settlement covers approximately 26,238 people.

The court-approved website for the Crimson Wine Group (CWG) class action settlement can be found at CrimsonWineSettlement.com.

Crimson Wine Group settlement class members who submit a timely, valid claim form can receive up to $5,000 for documented out-of-pocket losses incurred due to the data breach. This benefit covers losses related to identity theft or fraud and costs for credit reports, credit monitoring, bank fees, replacement IDs, and more.

Class members must submit proof, such as receipts, to receive a documented-loss payment.

In lieu of a documented-loss payment, class members can instead file a claim form to receive an estimated $100 cash payment, with no proof required.

The final amount of each class member’s cash payment may be larger or smaller, depending on the total number of valid claims filed.

Additionally, all class members can submit a claim form to receive two years of credit monitoring and identity theft insurance, which includes dark web scanning, public records monitoring, and access to fraud resolution agents.

The court will determine whether to grant the Crimson Wine Group settlement final approval following a hearing on October 13, 2026. Monetary compensation will begin to be distributed to class members only after final approval has been granted and any appeals have been resolved.

The Crimson Wine Group class action lawsuit alleged that the boutique vineyard management firm, which operates vineyards and wineries across California, Oregon and Washington, failed to implement reasonable cybersecurity measures to safeguard sensitive information in its care, which allegedly led to a data breach in June 2024.  

According to court documents, private information that may have been compromised in the breach included names, Social Security numbers and financial account information.
