STyLE GUIDE fOR RED WINESAll red wines in the list are lettered A to E. Light, soft, easy drinking wines such as a simple Beaujolais or a light Vin de Pays wine will be at the ‘A’ end of the scale. Slightly more serious but nevertheless, light, wines will be B; Pinot Noir, Valpolicella, entry level Chilean blends. C is the catch-all category that takes most red wines, with heavier, more concentrated wines falling into the D zone - Cabernet Sauvignon, Rioja Reserva, Cru Classé Bordeaux. E is reserved for the real heavyweights of great density, power and quality - Reserve Shiraz.

STyLE GUIDE fOR WhITE AND ROSé WINESWhite and rosé wines are numbered 1 to 9. Bone dry wines that are relatively light, such as Sauvignon Blanc from cooler climates will be marked 1. Champagnes, Manzanilla Sherry and cool climate Chardonnays such as Chablis will also be 1. 2 is a far more common category with the vast majority of white table wines fitting this group, from Chilean Chardonnay to New Zealand Riesling; from White Rioja to Soave Classico. 3 indicates a wine that is very slightly off-dry and a little richer in style - a Grand Cru wine from Alsace for example. Medium dry wines are between 3 and 5. Sweet wines range from 5 through to 9; from Spätlese through to Eiswein; from Madeira Verdelho to Malmsey.

Vintages are correct at time of going to press, but many wines bought regularly may change vintage over the life of this list.

INTrOduCTIONWelcome to our 2012 Wine and Spirit Brochure.

As always I am pleased to introduce this exciting new list which now includes our selection of Spirits. In addition you will find our Beers, Ciders and Minerals List conveniently placed inside the back cover.

If you were not able to attend our Walter Hicks Wine Show at Exeter in February you unfortunately missed a great chance to meet 40 of our principal suppliers and to taste wines from a selection of 380 wines on show. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our suppliers and valued customers for making the event such a success.

To stay at the forefront of market trends and your requirements we constantly strive to ensure that our list is the very best we can offer and this year is no exception. We are pleased to introduce a number of new wines to our portfolio which warrant particular attention.

FRANCE – Our Bordeaux selection is now presented by region not vintage and includes some excellent new wines. Look out also for an ultra-trendy Picpoul, a stunning red and white Côtes du Roussillon from Chapoutier, delicious Saint Joseph and Côtes du Rhône from Colombo et Fille and finally Riviera Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc, entry level wines from Languedoc that unquestionably over-deliver.

ENGLAND – Two excellent new wines from our highly respected neighbours at Sharpham in Devon – Bacchus and a Sparkling Brut.

ITALY – Three top quality Valpolicellas including a rich warming Amarone and a divine Pinot Grigio are added to our exciting line up.

ROMANIA – The range of five La Umbra wines are the first Romanian wines to be featured in our list and are worthy new additions with varietal typicity and ‘gluggability’.

SPAIN – Several new introductions here to browse over include an easy drinking and affordable red and white Monte Mediano, a Ribera del Duero and an ever-fashionable rosé and white from the highly respected Ermita de San Felices Rioja estate.

AUSTRALIA – Our ever popular range of varietals under the Richmond Ridge and Castle Creek labels have all been given a facelift and continue to be competitively priced to ensure they remain amongst our top sellers. Peter Lehmann swaps from Weighbridge labelling to the Art series and now includes a beautifully crisp and dry Eden Valley Riesling.

NEW ZEALAND – NZ continues to produce consistently good wines and we are proud to introduce our new carbon neutral Lansdowne Estate Sauvignon Blanc and two reds – the magnificent Crossings Pinot Noir and silky Crossroads Merlot.

SOUTH AFRICA – Arguably the most notable new wines to this year’s list come from two highly regarded ranges of varietals – Vondeling and Signal Cannon. You fail to try these wines at your peril so please don’t blame me for not tipping you off!

U.S.A. – The Wandering Bear trio of wines, including a pink Zinfandel, adds a very good mid-priced option to our range here.

FORTIFIED WINE – Having taken a sabbatical and being listed in our other price list I am pleased to report that they are back where they belong – alongside our comprehensive range of wines. We hope you find the guide on the different styles of interest.

This year we welcome Ruth Carter to our Wine Development Team all of whom are on call to help ensure you create a wine list that is best suited to your business. In addition our Inventory Control Team are able to produce vintage updates that can be tailor made to your requirements upon request.

In conclusion we are keeping the world up-to-date with our daily goings-on including tastings, winemaker activities and all the news in the wine trade on Twitter. Follow us via @hickswines. We wish you all a successful 2012 and thank you as always for your custom which is much appreciated and never taken for granted.

GrEEN wINESSt Austell Brewery takes its environmental responsibilities seriously and has naturally extended its concerns to cover the wine range. In the current economic climate many producers do not necessarily have their produce “certified,” often because of the cost implications.

In every wine-producing country there are regimes that will lead to environmental credentials for farming and production – labels like organic, biodynamic, sustainable, IFM (integrated farm management) or biodiversity are the most common ones, but it’s an area that’s growing all the time.

Most of these improvement schemes have similar aims for their particular outcome, but each country or region will have operators working to their own procedures with differing priorities or concerns. Given the differing climates in which wine is made, and the different natural enemies to be combated on different continents, this is no surprise but it does feel like a maze.

It’s also now a very competitive area that is evolving and growing at speed.

All this is surely very good news. We can be confident that what is claimed for a wine’s growing, making, handling, packaging, shipping/transport/storage, for staff conditions and working practices, will almost certainly be true. It may not yet be true that our large wine list has yet caught up with the claims made for every individual wine – changing as they do year by year – and we apologise for this and can only promise that we will make every effort to install our own house regime that is capable of catching the moving picture.

G CErTIfIEd OrGaNIC

No chemical fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides or insecticides are allowed in organic vineyards. The only permitted sprays are mineral-based (such as copper and sulphur), which stay on the plant surface and are not absorbed by the vine. It can take several years for a vineyard to convert to organic production and only then can official recognition come from its government or affiliated association.

G mINImum INTErvENTIONThis is evident in the vineyard when the grower interferes as little as possible with nature’s processes. Some chemicals may be used but only reactively as a last resort when the crop is in danger, such as containment of disease or pests.

ChamPaGNE


There was a time when some cheap Champagne was said to have come from vines grown on “wastelands” close to Paris, and that chemicals were also often used to excess in the winemaking. After many attempts, in 2001 the CIVC (Comité Interprofessionnel du Vin de Champagne) launched an environmental initiative championing viticulture raisonnée, a minimum intervention theory – doing only what is needed in the vineyard. Champagne now embraces a greener future of sustainability and a prevention rather than cure approach. Growers are rated on a scale of 0-100% compliance with sustainable practices and all Grande Marques expect to be in the top sector of 80-100%. As a consequence, use of insecticides in Champagne is down by 85% and herbicides by 50%. The CIVC is looking to reduce carbon emissions by 25% over the next 8 years and introduce a lighter-weight Champagne bottle to achieve their aim.

Grande Marque is a term that’s loosely bandied about, but what does it actually mean? Literally it means a great or famous brand to which could be attributed major volume or particular quality. The Syndicat des Grandes Marques was founded in 1882 by some of the major firms or brands of the time. Changes naturally took place, but by 1993 the Syndicat had been re-formed and certain minimum standards were in place. The term is no longer officially recognised since the new Syndicat folded in 1997, but the term is still proudly retained by members as an historic claim to quality, and at the last count 24 members remain. For interest we have marked those Grande Marques that we list: Ayala, Bollinger, Krug, Laurent Perrier,

Moët & Chandon, Joseph Perrier, Louis Roederer, Ruinart, Taittinger and Veuve Clicquot. Despite challenging economic times and the ever-increasing popularity of more affordable sparking wines, Champagne continues to dominate and the UK remains the most important export market. Sadly, prices will once again be increasing this year due to rising costs of production (high grape prices and reduced harvests). But demand for Champagne remains buoyant, if on a more occasion-led basis, and by working closely with our Champagne suppliers we can offer point of sale, promotions and training to ensure we keep the sparkle in fizz.

SParklING wINEWhile the world’s economic troubles continue, many consumers are understandably tightening the purse strings and turning their attentions away from more extravagant Champagne to focus on sparkling wine. Quality is as good as ever (if not better) and such wines are featuring more regularly on wine lists as they offer both quality and affordability.

French market favourites such as Veuve Valmante and Louis Perdrier never disappoint and provide ideal easy-drinking fizz to spruce up any celebration. But it is the Prosecco that has taken the world by storm (so much so that the current production of 220 million bottles per annum is forecast to reach 1 billion by 2035) and we offer a spumante (fully sparkling), a frizzante (semi-sparkling) and a rosé. Cava too has long shed its stigma of being cheap old fashioned fizz. Instead we have the cool charm of established favourites like Gran Bach Cava Reserva, which over-delivers and flies Spain’s flag as the fine modern example it is.

A truly remarkable label to find in this democratic section is the giant-killing, multi-award-winning Camel Valley Brut.

This Cornish-made arrival in the world’s front rank of Champagnes and look-alikes has already won many of the biggest UK and International awards, and has the Queen as a devoted fan, who serves her rationed bottles to heads of state at her grandest state banquets (and gets proudly written up in the national press). Everyone wants this wine (even the Houses of Parliament can’t find any to buy) and St Austell holds a happy privileged position as an original stockist the owners wish to thank. We are grateful in our turn. We are even able to offer the superb new Rosé Brut, which has the wine world in a spin. Faced with this new English reality, we welcome the superb Sharpham Estate Sparkling, also made by the ‘traditional method’ (méthode champenoise), displaying the crisp style, elegant mousse and classy finish.

fraNCE bOrdEauXThe wines of Bordeaux are becoming progressively more difficult to purchase as the growth of developing markets puts extra demand on limited production. New customers in the Far East seem to be prepared to buy all they can of the most famous labels and at whatever price the Bordelaise will charge. This seems all the more acute as prices for the fabled 2009 vintage reach all-time highs. To add insult to injury many Chinese buyers are said to enjoy adding Coca-Cola to their red wines!

But that is the crazy world of unfamiliar distant palates, while we are always looking for ever-greater value and reliability; a quest that is often pleasurable (if not easy). The outcome has seen quite a few changes to our listings. In today’s tough markets we believe in the need to actively promote value.

That said, Bordeaux is one of the truly great wine regions of the world, with the wines having been held in great esteem by the discerning palates for centuries. The region covers an area of some 250,000 acres with more than 22,000 vineyard owners producing the average equivalent of 44 million cases a year. The region is split by the rivers Garonne and Dordogne meeting to create the mighty Gironde on its way to the Atlantic. The Gironde’s ‘Left Bank’ (south-west) is dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc and Merlot in varying proportions.

Meanwhile the ‘Right Bank’ (north-east) has rounder, slightly softer styles dominated by Merlot. To reflect this, we have refreshed our offering by placing the wines into the Appellation Controlée they originate from. Although predominately red wines, there are also some superb fresh dry whites such as the reliably delicious Château Pierrail. The whites are mainly to be found in the south and west of the region and there are some wonderful clean, modern rosés.

Last, but by no means least, are the luscious dessert wines made possible by the botrytis mould that thrives on the grapes in the moist atmosphere of the river basin. The Château Le Pin Sacriste in its full size bottle is a wonderful introduction for customers wanting to offer a sweeter wine with pudding within a set menu. Or why not include the cost of a small glass within the price of a set dish?

fraNCE burGuNdyIf Bordeaux is the King of wine regions then Burgundy is the Queen with its elegant Pinot Noirs and classic Chablis. Chardonnay is the most widely planted grape for the whites and the notoriously difficult to grow Pinot Noir for the reds (with the exception of Beaujolais where Gamay is the grape varietal).

Chablis signals the Northern-most area of Burgundy where Chardonnay produces fine wines with elegant acidity and minerality. Two hours south and you reach the start of the Côte d’Or, home to the legendary Pinot Noir villages of Gevrey-Chambertin and Nuits-St-Georges and the equally-famed Chardonnay villages of Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet. Further south are the Mâconnais villages such as Pouilly-Fuissé where

again, Chardonnay reigns supreme. At the southern end of the region, red wines take the lead in Beaujolais, where the Gamay grape produces wonderfully diverse wines from floral Fleurie to the more powerful wines of Moulin à Vent.

fraNCE lOIrEThe Loire Valley Vineyard stretches from the west coast Nantes area with its bone dry, sea-fresh Muscadets, through to Central Loire (also known as France’s garden) with sweeter Vouvrays and dry fruity Touraine Sauvignon. Upstream from there is the Upper Loire, the Central Valley – almost in the centre of the country – and home to the villages of Pouilly Fumé, Sancerre and Menetou-Salon, with their superb minerally, flinty wines. The Loire region produces every colour; white, red and rosé and every type of wine; dry, sweet, still and sparkling. The area is the biggest producer of white wine in France, and produces 20% of all the country’s wine. The UK is the biggest export market for the Loire region and the wines are perfectly suited to the abundance of fresh fish and seafood found on menus across the south west.

We work closely with Chereau Carré, a leading Muscadet négociant. The wines come from the producer’s own 120 hectare estate and are ideal partners to shellfish. Guy Saget wines, Pouilly Fumé and Sancerre, represent assured quality and elegance, and are now closed with screw cap for ultra freshness. Worth trying is Henri

Pellé’s Menetou-Salon, the leading estate in the region, now made by his daughter-in-law. The wine is crisp and fragrant, pure and clean. For extra indulgence, Sancerre Vacheron is an impeccably run 37-hectare estate certified Organic family domain.

Enjoy!

fraNCE rhÔNERhône is a versatile and highly productive region of two parts; the cooler north with its powerful, spicy Syrahs and peach-perfumed Viogniers focusing on the hill of Hermitage; then the warmer south with its brilliant blends such as Châteauneuf-du-Pape, which can be made from up to 13 grape varieties. We continue to list old favourites such as Domaine Perrin and Louis Mousset whose examples show off the wines in all their glory. They are surrounded by the vast but lesser-known (and equally tasty) area of the many villages of the Côtes du Rhône, including Gigondas and Vacqueyras.

We have a number of exciting new additions to complement our existing collection including three wines from the renowned Chapoutier estate one of which, La Petit Ruche Crozes-Hermitage, has won a Gold Medal at the International Wine Challenge 2011. Another welcome embellishment to our list are two wines from Colombo & Fille. Laure

Colombo, daughter of the top Rhône producer Jean-Luc Colombo, has returned from travelling the globe and obtaining a Masters degree to become the new lead inspiration of the company and apply her considerable skills to these renowned wines. Their St Joseph Syrah is hand-harvested and aged in both new and old oak to produce a wine of rich, dense flavour.

M. Chapoutier

Independent and family-owned. Members of the Chapoutier family have been in the Rhône since 1808. Michel Chapoutier took over the domain in 1990 and now represents the 7th generation.

He is audacious, passionate, constantly creative and a terroir lover.

Michel’s love for soils and grapes, especially Syrah led him to spread his wings to Roussillon.

The Roussillon history is complex and compelling. Terraces on stony soil, with a rich geological background and a climate that man has adopted for his crops. The Roussillon was bound to attract Michel Chapoutier’s attention. Les Vignes de “Bila-Haut” are the expression of this wonderful terroir.


fraNCE SOuTh Of fraNCEWrapping themselves around the coastline of the Mediterranean, the regions of Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon encompass a vast area within which are a great diversity of soils, grape types and wine styles. It is here in the South that one can find the more modern styles of wine, with emphasis on the grape variety and the producer rather than the village or region. And it is in this region of France that great value French offers ‘by the glass’ can be found.

Les Bories for instance, offers both light elegant Sauvignon Blanc and intensely fruity Merlot and has proved to be extremely consistent. Or why not re-try Chante d’Or? The house wine of St Austell for many years, it’s undergone a recent facelift and is now a real pleaser – fresh, dry, fruity and light.

At St Austell we pride ourselves on the longevity of many of our supplier and producer relationships. Family producers Laroche and Laurent Miquel, to name two, have stood the test of time, even while their magnificent ever-rising international standards and status have rocketed them to global fame. Michel

Laroche, recently again awarded Winemaker of the Year, has been weighed down with medals for decades, and is informally known as ‘King of Chablis’. Laurent Miquel, another top achiever, has just made the ‘Viognier of the Year’. Both have been regular visitors to the South-West over the years, are well-known to many of our customers, and are frequent attendees at the Walter Hicks Wine Fair.

New on the list we have found a superb Picpoul de Pinet from La Côte de Flamenc. Bursting with citrus fruit and minerality, it makes an excellent companion to shellfish or a top end, modern wine by the glass.

alSaCEIt was said that when old Alsace was part of Germany, its purpose was to make the famous wines of the Rhein and Mosel look even better by producing cheap blending wines. However, since the end of the First World War, when the region became part of France, Alsace has carved a path as a producer of arresting quality wines, famed particularly for aromatic whites such as Riesling and Gewürztraminer.

In the rain-shadow of the Vosges Mountains, this unique region of France is capable of producing wines that achieve higher alcohol levels - similar to those seen in the south of France, while retaining the cool, aromatic edge akin to those of northerly regions.

Our Kuehn range provides three classic examples of Alsace wines; a mineral-edged Riesling; a spicy, floral Gewürztraminer and rich, soft Pinot Gris. One of these is a must for all good lists.

Following the introduction of Friendly Grüner Veltliner in 2011, a number of customers joined us in singing its praises. Offering a superb wine under a modern, contemporary label has led to establishments across the South West jumping on the ‘GV’ bandwagon.

Grüner Veltliner is Austria’s flagship grape variety and accounts for over a third of the country’s production. Austria offers a cool, continental climate; something that is being favoured by many New World producers, enabling slower ripening. It is ideal for fresh, fruity ‘groo-vee’, by which this native grape is affectionately becoming known.

Five generations on, and the family at Laurenz V are so convinced by its quality that ‘GV’ is the only grape variety they now grow, enabling them to give it their undivided attention. If in any doubt as to what to expect, think of the floral perfume of a German Riesling, the refreshing zip of a Loire Sauvignon Blanc and the lusciousness of a Northern Italian Pinot Grigio.

whITE5616910 Friendly Grüner Veltliner 2010/11, Laurenz V, Niederosterreich £11.42 Grüner Veltliner is Austria’s hallmark grape variety. Dry in style with citrus, honey and mineral notes and extremely food friendly. (2) 12%vol

ENGlaNdEnglish (and Welsh) wine production has come on leaps and bounds over recent years. We can now boast around 400 producers with an annual production of 2 million bottles and even the French are buying our land, but why? Because the best wines are looking as if they might be world-beaters, winning big prizes against great names like Champagne while the young vineyards are barely mature.

There is a fear in Champagne that their own summers may be becoming a little too warm for production of the elegant acids needed to make ultimate sparkling wines. Then the Sussex and Hampshire Downs are the northern lip of the true-chalk saucer running under the English Channel, whose southern lip is the area of the Montagne de Reims, in the centre of Champagne. So England is cooler and the subsoils are the identical seam. Moreover, English farming is not having too good a time so more of this remarkable land is for sale.

Back home and Camel Valley near Bodmin and Sharpham, just outside Totnes, are two producers who exemplify English wine making. Our offering of the Lindo’s award winning wines has increased to include their Camel Valley Rosé while in Devon we have added two new wines (Sharpham Bacchus and Sparkling) to our ever-popular Dart Valley Reserve listing. All ideal for matching to locally sourced ingredients and while we become increasingly conscious of our carbon footprint, only a few ‘food miles’ are needed to get the wine to your door.

GErmaNyAt last there are signs of German wines being taken more seriously. Now Germany is finally being recognised for its merits: cool climate, excellent varietal typicity, true expression of terroir, and precision winemaking thanks to centuries of expertise.

There is a movement away from the German Blends such as Liebfraumilch, Piesporter & Niersteiner which have done much to diminish the following of German wines. Today, Riesling is widely recognised as the King of German Whites. Riesling is an extremely versatile grape and can express purity and complexity depending on the style in which it is made. From its driest form, where peach & citrus notes combine to give zest & freshness; to its sweetest

expression as an unctuous pudding wine full of honeyed nectar. These are wines of great poise & balance; and there is always a vein of minerality & elegance that shines through.We are pleased to offer the Kendermann range which has won international recognition for its performance in helping to promote Riesling as a single varietal wine of quality. So if you haven’t already tried it – then explore the versatility of German Riesling…

huNGaryHungary’s wine industry goes from strength to strength with the help of strict legislation and investment advice from Australia and western Europe. State-of-the-art wineries, combined with talented winemakers using international grape varieties has led to the wines contending with the likes of France and Chile to gain markets with their quality and value.

Hungary lies on a latitudinal par with Burgundy - making it perfect for the cool ripening of semi-aromatic and aromatic whites such as the Via Fordulo Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc and the surprisingly fruity Pinot Grigio. However, an average of 2,000 hours of sunshine a year also makes for juicy reds which the Via Fordulo Merlot demonstrates deliciously.

After three years on our list, the Via Fordulo range from Neszmély in Hungary has certainly earned its place and gained ample support from our customers. Akos Kamocsay, the chief winemaker at Hilltop winery (following his father of the same name) is referred to as a ‘top Hungarian winemaker’ by Oz Clarke, which goes to show it’s not only us who appreciate these fresh, bright wines at affordable prices.

ITalyItalian wines are often said to be the best food partners, perhaps due to their particular structure and acidity, both in whites and reds. Our Barolo, dry and intense when tasted alone, softens and complements rich beef dishes like a match made in heaven. Tomatoes, those high acidity fruits so tricky for wine matching, enjoy being paired with a minerally fruity Greco di Tufo or Frascati, or equally a fresh, tangy red such as Montepulciano or Sangiovese.

Pinot Grigio sales show no signs of slowing but sadly imminent price increases may cause a natural decline. The recent harvest was 15-20% down and whilst we work closely with our suppliers we have had to settle for some small increases. Prosecco, in particular, has been subject to steep increases as popularity presses on that particular grape variety. And whilst the initial popularity of this wine has peaked, one thing is for sure; the days of cheap Prosecco are over.

We have enjoyed sourcing some new Italian wines for our list this year and recommend trying our new Valpolicella, and the distinctly exciting Valpolicella Ripasso. It’s a fuller-bodied and more intensely-fruited red, achieved by refermenting the wine on the pressed grape skins.

In white, we were determined to have a truly foodworthy Pinot Grigio and our find is Bottega Vinai Pinot Grigio. It’s delicious and well worth its price, do give it a try!

This is a great source of authentic, inexpensive Chianti, in both fresh, vibrant, unoaked styles and more serious, spicy Riserva, aged 2 years in large old oak ‘botti’. The Gratis also make fine, complex Vin Santo in the traditional style as well as exceptional olive oil.


POrTuGalPortugal has been overlooked as a table-wine producing region in favour of the country’s renowned Port production. Fortified to a resounding 22% alcohol by volume, these wines were hugely popular before central heating.

Although table wine (as opposed to fortified) has been produced here for centuries, production always took second place to the international demand for Port. It probably suffered by being made from the underripe grapes, or latterly from under-performing co-operatives.

With an array of indigenous grape varieties on offer, a climate moderated by the cooling Atlantic coast and an increasing amount of investment in the region, the production of Portuguese table wines has seen a revolution over recent decades. Portugal can be best described in two-the north focusing on maintaining high-quality, terroir-focused wines, while the south shows its ability to produce more accessible, modern wines, expressing Portugal’s individual character.

Holidaymakers in the popular Algarve region will be familiar with the excellent modern wines of neighbouring Alentejo.

Irreverente, from the northern region of Beiras, is a chest-thumping, smokey red packed full of herbs and hedgerow fruits – ideal with hearty, meaty dishes. Casa do Lago, from the cooler southern regions of Lisboa, are lighter-style wines that, alongside Portuguese varieties, now incorporate Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon in the white and red - respectively enabling easier understanding and recognition for the consumer.

PortPort is made by adding brandy to arrest the fermenting grape must which, in turn, results in a wine that is sweet with high alcohol. It can be red or white and comes in many different styles, each working well with a certain budget or occasion. These varying styles are outlined below:

White port Made from white grapes, this is golden coloured with honey and nut aromas, low in acidity with deliberate oxidation notes. It is wood matured, a couple of years old with an off dry style. Try as a long drink mixed with tonic, lots of ice and a sprig of mint.

Ruby PortOne of the most popular styles. Young, non vintage, full bodied with deep colour, less than 3 years old. Sweet, simple with high alcohol.

Tawny Port Reserve Tawny is becoming a popular new option, making an ideal chilled aperitif and an equally good accompaniment to cheese and some desserts. There is no sediment so no need for decanting and it can be kept open in the fridge for a few weeks.

Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Wine from a single year that is aged in cask for 4-6 years before being bottled. Again, no need to decant. It is richer with more complex fruit than a ruby. Can be kept for two weeks after opening. A very good all-rounder.

Vintage Port The longest lived wines produced anywhere. From a single vintage and typically from the best vineyards. It is bottled when 2 years old. When drunk young it is full, rich and tannic. When mature (20 years +) it is smooth, soft with complex berry aromas. It throws a heavy deposit so decant and consume within a few days. We are fortunate to hold an extensive range of vintage ports from the well known port shippers: Dow, Taylor, Graham, Warre, Croft, Cockburn and Fonseca. Vintages of the 1980s are drinking well, with 1983 being particularly youthful, and the 1985 being perfect for opening now. 1977s are still highly prized and great wines of interest.

La Umbra, meaning in the shade, was inspired by the Romanian tradition to enjoy fresh, youthful wines sitting in the shade of a large tree in the outdoor summer kitchen found in every rural home.

The wine marks a new era of Romanian winemaking combining modern techniques and international grape varieties with tradition and heritage.

La Umbra was launched in 2010, the result of significantinvestment in planting new vineyards with international grape varieties in Romania.


rOmaNIaFollowing the success of our Hungarian Via Fordulo range we were keen to expand our Eastern European offering. So, we turned to Romania with its 6,000 years of viticultural history and its wine market estimated to be worth £350 million in 2010.

Romania’s four main growing regions are diverse in climate and soil. While the native grape varieties like Feteasca Neagra and Tamaioasa Romaneasca have great potential, it is with the international varieties such as Pinot Noir, Merlot and Chardonnay that Romania is starting to gain a reputation for good quality, affordable wines.

The fall of communism in Romania was not as peaceful as in some other former Soviet States, and the country had to work hard to stabilise its economy. It was granted EU membership in 2007. A great deal of outside investment has enabled significant changes to winemaking facilities, as well as the planting of international varieties with the export market in mind.

Halewood Romania is the leading investor in Romanian wine with over 350 hectares under

vine. The founder, the late John Halewood, saw the potential in Eastern European wines in the late 1970s and started an export company. His name has since become synonymous with the modern-day Romanian wine industry as he played a key part in the re-development of the industry after the Romanian Revolution in 1989.

La Umbra, meaning ‘in the shade’ is a range that comes from the Halewood Estates and has gained recent critical acclaim with the Merlot winning a ‘Commended Medal’ at the 2011 Decanter World Wine Awards. With well-known varietals from Pinot Grigio to Pinot Noir these wines mark a new era of Romanian winemaking, combining modern winemaking techniques and international grape varieties with recognised tradition and heritage.

SPaINWith New World wines commanding ever higher prices, Spain seems to be enjoying another resurgence in popularity. It has the largest area under vine of any country in the world and a wine industry that dates back over three millennia. The diversity of its region is colossal, ranging from the grand dark giants of the Ribera del Duero to the intensely elegant Albariños found in the cooler north west.

Of course, the stalwart is Rioja. This region is in the north east of Spain, on a plateau surrounded by mountains which give it a unique climate. The wine has become known for its maturation in oak barrels; requiring a minimum twelve months in oak for Crianza and Reserva and two years for Gran Reserva, plus extra ageing requirements in bottle before sale. In practice many of the traditional family producers age for longer.

Amongst our many Riojas are Marques de Murrieta and Marques de Riscal. Both are regarded as the Fathers of Rioja, having originally brought the French oak casks into the region that enabled their wines to mature

so well. For a younger style, we have Ermita de San Felices from Santiago Ijalba. Son and winemaker, Roberto is known and welcomed in the South West, having visited many of the establishments, including a memorable night at the Driftwood Spars! He brings with him a knowledge and passion for the region that can only be described as inspiring. His vineyards are certified organic, and are chosen for British Airway’s First Class. He has developed completely natural viticulture techniques that create healthier wines, based on grapes with a higher content of antioxidants (resveratrol and quercitin) that have anti-ageing benefits. Do we need a better excuse?

lEbaNONTravel just 15 miles north of Beirut and you will find living proof that a thriving business can survive despite being surrounded by civil war. The Hochar family at Château Musar have been making wine since the 1930s and despite being so close to the front line (having actually been hit by shells at one point) they amazingly lost only two vintages during the fighting. Since the war ceased, Lebanon has seen an increase in wine production but the Hochar family, now in their third generation, remain very much at the forefront in Lebanon. Their famed red – a French-modelled fine vintage wine – is featured on many top restaurant wine lists around the globe and is described by many as one of the great wines of the world. This superb blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan and Cinsault provides the ingredients for a truly fascinating wine.

arGENTINaThings have never looked better for Argentine vineyards. Demand is still growing and most wine lists now offer an Argentine Malbec, with a good chance that it is also available by the glass. Their reputation for quality and personality is being increasingly recognised, and consumers are becoming more familiar with the regions other than just Mendoza – San Juan, La Rioja and Salta to name but a few. It’s not just about the brilliant Malbec grape anymore either, customers are finding pleasure from other varieties, such as Chenin, Torrontes, Chardonnay, Syrah/Shiraz, Bonarda, Cabernet and blends.

Argentina is one of the biggest producers of wine in the world, but with 75% of the volume sold in the domestic market and more than 1500 wineries in Mendoza alone, there is little need for wineries to chase low prices and volume. On-trade sales are up 20% and this success, together with importers’ readiness to supply independents (and the on-trade particularly) means that Argentina is likely to become stronger and stronger over the coming years.

It’s a vast country, brimming with confidence in its produce, and an Atlantic seaboard that puts the wine on the water direct to Europe (unlike Chile and California where freight must queue and pay for the Panama Canal). With greater representation from the diverse regions, varietals, styles and prices available, and the ability to find the pair for any food – it’s no surprise to see the demand for Argentine wines grow year-on-year.

auSTralIaDespite new wine regions around the world coming to the fore, Australia continues to maintain its place on the UK wine scene. Recent years have seen Australia suffering from over production, poor exchange rates and increased competition from other New World countries, not to mention devastating fires and droughts. Yet this capable and hard-working nation always seems to bounce back from whatever obstacles stand in its way. France and New Zealand are the only two countries to command a higher average selling price and Australia is now accounting for just over 20% of the UK market share. We are also seeing an increasing demand for terroir-driven wine styles which has allowed boutique wineries to put in more frequent appearances, offering wines that show off true expression and individuality.

Our Australian offering continues to increase with new additions from Cumulus: Climbing Merlot to accompany the high-altitude Rolling Chardonnay, Shiraz and Rosé. A Riesling from the talented Peter Lehmann and a new-blend Rosé from Geoff Merrill called Pimpala Road Shiraz-Grenache. The charismatic

wines of Simon Hackett, McHenry Hohnen and De Bortoli remain firm favourites while the ever-popular Richmond Ridge, Castle Creek and The Paddock, to name a few, punch well above their weight at the lower price points.

ChIlEEverything about Chile is good for growing grapes. The climate, soil and geography all lend themselves to winemaking and the central third of the country surrounding the capital Santiago is particularly perfect. Rain is limited to winter months giving a long ripening season, thaw water from the Andes provides irrigation and cooling sea and mountain breezes allow the grapes to stay on the vine longer, ripening evenly with high fruit concentration and skin pigmentation. Amongst others, our Urmeneta, Santa Helena and Pionero ranges demonstrate the intense berry reds and the fruity, crisp whites that are consistently produced.

Chile has approximately 118,000 hectares under vine with a 3:1 ratio of red to white grape varieties. Cabernet Sauvignon still dominates the reds with Merlot, Carmenère and Shiraz in supporting roles and for the whites Sauvignon Blanc remains as successful as ever at providing a delicious, good value alternative to the Sauvignons of New Zealand and France. Un-wooded Chardonnays are now favoured in

Chile responding to the market demand for a lighter, fresher style to those produced in the past.

Chile has had a tough couple of years with the earthquake in 2010 followed by a smaller harvest in 2011. Despite these factors nudging prices higher the increase has been manageable and Chile still remains an over-performer in the wine world for producing value for money, good quality wines.

NEw ZEalaNdA relative latecomer to the top table of world wine-producing countries, New Zealand wasted no time once gold was touched. Montana’s Peter Hubscher planted the first Sauvignon Blanc trial vines in Marlborough in 1974 and kept Montana at the head of the new industry by working on the promise they showed. But when David Hohnen, of Cloudy Bay, harvested his first Sauvignon Blanc in 1985, explosive recognition was ignited. (Note that David Hohnen is now in partnership with his daughter and son-in-law at McHenry-Hohnen in Australia).

Nor is the story all about Marlborough and Sauvignon Blanc. New Zealand Pinot Noir is having a massive effect on world markets with its intensely-fruited, low yielding vines in Central Otago in the deep south and Nelson in the far north, or the other fruit-led approachable styles of Marlborough. The 2010 harvest was legendary and 2011 is proving to be another winner. It’s fun to note that Hugh Johnson’s electrifying publication of his ‘World Atlas of Wine’ in 1971 gave only postage stamp-sized mention of New Zealand’s mere 3,000 acres of vines round Auckland and Hawkes Bay.

With the ever-increasing interest in linking food and wine, New Zealand Riesling and Pinot Gris grapes offer a wonderful

counterpoint to accompany many dishes. For scallops look no further than Esk Valley’s Chenin Blanc and, with the revival of Chardonnay, growers now offer unbeatably clean, fresh, elegant and rounded styles that can partner chicken superbly.

New on the list for 2012 is Crossroads Merlot. In the warm, dry sunny region of Hawkes Bay, the Crossroads farm was taken over by Debbie and Peter Cutfield in 2000. Enthusiastic members of the Association of Sustainable Wine Growers in New Zealand, their practices include the reduction of tractor use by planting slow-growing grasses, and using free running sheep between the vine rows.

Esk Valley – Crafted New Zealand Wine

Established in 1933, the Esk Valley estate is situated in New Zealand’s picturesque Hawkes Bay region.

As Chief Winemaker, Gordon Russell has been at the heart of the winery since 1993 and has developed a range of classic wines that have built up a very loyal following over the years.

Grapes are sourced from both Esk’s own vineyards and from dedicated contract growers from two main regions in New Zealand. In Hawkes Bay this includes vineyards in the prestigious Gimblett Gravels region and in Marlborough, vineyards in the Awatere and Wairau Valley, which provide the fruit for their benchmark Sauvignon Blanc and Riesling.

Esk Valley is a boutique winery and is unique in that many of the techniques used are dictated by the winery itself. The old concrete vats, the layout of the buildings and the lack of modern technology mean the wines are made in a simple, honest, hands on way. The result of this passion and labour intensive approach is a range of elegant, intensely flavoured wines that are extremely food friendly.

The Esk Valley range is diverse and also includes more unique varieties such as Chenin Blanc, Pinot Gris and a trophy winning Rosé. Gordon is still perhaps best known though for his elegant, Bordeaux blend reds, so be sure to have a look at these wines too.


SOuTh afrICaKnown as the Garden of Africa, South Africa’s Cape vineyards are located within the Cape Floral Kingdom. Only one of six such plant kingdoms in the world, it is the smallest yet the most diverse, being home to some 9,600 plant species – more than the whole of the northern hemisphere. South Africa also benefits from the 400 years of vine growing and wine making, learned from the early Huguenot settlers, that is solely theirs in the southern hemisphere.

The wine regions are mainly in the southern areas of the country, and near to the coast where the grapes enjoy cooling breezes along with hours of sunshine, giving good levels of ripeness. Wine growers are passionate about their environment and their soils. Over 250,000 acres of vines are planted with a fairly equal balance between red and white.

New to the list this year is the River Garden range from Stellenbosch from the Lourensford Estate, established in 1700. River Garden Rosé is an elegant off-dry Merlot/Shiraz/Mourvèdre. The red Shiraz/Cabernet scored a strong 4-star rating from John Platter’s South African Wines bible and the Sauvignon Blanc shows brisk tipicity with its notes of gooseberry and nettle.

Lourensford

Steeped in history and heritage, the estate also boasts an ultra-modern winery utilising technology unique in the Southern Hemisphere.

New for 2012, we are delighted to introduce the River Garden Range from Lourensford, a perfect trio of wines which includes a Sauvignon Blanc, Rosé and Shiraz/Cabernet. The River Garden wines offer optimal fruit flavours with understated class and finesse and will be perfect companions for any occasion.


uSaThe vast USA, perhaps unsurprisingly these days, accommodates several vine-growing and wine-making areas. But California, rightly-known as the Golden State, can stand alongside the world’s most richly-diverse wine regions. More than 100 grape varieties are grown in more than 100 wine growing areas by over 1,000 producers. The result, as might be expected, is an eclectic range of wine styles from a multitude of different wine makers. California is now not only home to the UK’s top-selling wine brand, Blossom Hill, it also contains some of the world’s most famous and wildly expensive wines, such as Screaming Eagle, with (nearly) everything else in between.

That ‘nearly’ is the rub, remarked on in previous years, referring to the curious lack of quality wines at the mid-range price point. So it is a pleasure to report a good result from our searches for 2012 in our new offering of Wandering Bear Merlot, Chardonnay

and Rosé, each delivering both quality and consistency. They join our old favourites from R H Phillips, along with the essential Invenio Zinfandel Rosé and Quady’s wonderful ‘stickies’.

We stock a wide range of spirits and represent the major spirit companies in the industry; Diageo, Pernod Ricard and Bacardi Brown Forman, as well as smaller handcrafted spirits such as Sipsmith and Paradis.

It would be a challenging task to outline all the different types of spirits, how best to serve them, the glasses, the cocktail recipes and so on

in this short space, but we would happily discuss this further with you to help provide the most suitable spirits range for your bar.

PrOfIT CalCulaTOrTo calculate your gross margin on retail price you need to multiply the ex VAT cost price by the relevant factor to achieve the inc VAT list price at that margin. For example, to achieve 60% margin on a wine that costs £5.75 ex VAT, multiply 5.75 by 3.001 to give £17.25 inc VAT.

rESPONSIblE drINkINGIn this period of Government-led responsible drinking and increased awareness of health issues and alcohol consumption, it is important to know how many units of alcohol are in a glass of wine.

It is a simple calculation of the percentage volume alcohol times the amount of wine in litres. Thus a small glass (125ml) of Medium Dry, Cuvée Chante d’Or is as follows:

11.5% X 0.125 = 1.44 uNITSa mEdIum GlaSS (175ml) IS 11.5% X 0.175 = 2 uNITSa larGE GlaSS (250ml) IS 11.5% X 0.250 = 2.88 uNITS

a Small GlaSS Of rOllING ShIraZ IS 14% X 0.125 = 1.75 uNITSa mEdIum GlaSS (175ml) IS 14% X 0.175 = 2.45 uNITSa larGE GlaSS (250ml) IS 14% X 0.250 = 3.5 uNITS

Terms & Conditions of Trading1. Terms of payment

Accounts are to be paid by the 24th day of the month following the date of supply as specified on the statement. If payment is not made within the agreed credit period we reserve the right to charge interest at the rate of 3% above Barclays Bank Base Rate per month from the date on which payment falls due until the date on which payment is actually received notwithstanding that such claims to interest and/or to surcharges for non-payment may have been waived by us in the past. Any account falling overdue will not qualify for discount relating to the overdue amount and we reserve the right to re-impose without notice any discounts that have been allowed if payment is not made in full by the due date. Direct Debit facilities are available. All costs including legal fees incurred by us in collection of amounts due hereunder or in enforcing repossession under Clause 3 below will be payable by the customer. Any bank charges incurred by us, through cheques or direct debits not being honoured for any reason, will be payable by the customer. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate credit facilities at any time.

2. ClaimsAll goods should be examined at the time of delivery and any loss or damage signed for accordingly. If examination is impractical at time of delivery, please sign the delivery note and mark it ‘UNEXAMINED’. In any event St Austell Brewery/Depots must be notified of any discrepancies and/or breakages in deliveries received not later than the day following the day of delivery.

3. Title of goodsThe goods shall remain the property of the Seller ‘St Austell Brewery Co. Ltd.’ until cheques received are cleared and full payment has been received for them from the Buyer. Until such payment is received the Buyer shall hold the goods on behalf of the Seller and shall store the goods in such a way as they are identifiable as the property of the Seller. If the goods are sold before the Seller has been paid in full, the Buyer shall hold the proceeds of the sale on trust for the Seller, and such sale is only authorised by the Seller if it takes place in the ordinary course of the Buyer’s business. In the event of non-payment by the Buyer on the due date, the Seller shall be entitled to enter the premises of the Buyer and take such measures as are reasonably necessary to recover the goods. The Seller shall have absolute authority to retake, sell or otherwise deal with or dispose of all or any part of the goods in which title remains vested in the seller. The Seller shall be entitled to seek a court injunction to prevent the Buyer from selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of the goods.

4. OwnershipNotice is hereby given that returnable Bottles, Cases and Casks upon which a deposit may or may not have been charged are the property or responsibility of the Company. They will be credited in full when returned in good condition and their full value will be charged for if not returned.

5. Availability of stock, vintages and substitutionsIt is not always possible to ensure that stocks of wine in our list remain available until the publication of the next monthly amendment sheet or annual price list. If your order includes a wine which is either out of stock or discontinued we will select another wine as near as possible in style, quality and price. Similarly in the event of a vintage being out of stock the next available vintage will be sent unless we are instructed to the contrary.

6. PricesAll prices are quoted exclusive of V.A.T and are subject to market fluctuations, alterations in Customs and Excise Duties, and stocks being available. This company reserves the right to alter any prices or specifications at any time without notice and all goods are sold subject to prices and conditions ruling at the date of despatch. All prices include delivery within the Counties of Cornwall, Devon, Dorset & Somerset by our own transport providing that conditions stated under Clause 7 below are adhered to. Delivery charges outside Cornwall, Devon, Dorset & Somerset are subject to quotations upon application.

7. Deliveries and minimum ordersThis Company reserves the right to state a minimum value and/or quantity for any orders to be delivered wherever deemed appropriate. All deliveries are made by our own transport. Approximate times and days of deliveries are available from St. Austell Brewery or any of its depots.

8. WarrantyThe goods included in this list comply with the Food and Drugs Act and all other statutory requirements or regulations relating to the sale of goods.

9. Contract termsThis Company shall supply goods only on the condition that our terms and conditions, as stated above, represent the entire agreement between ourselves and our customers and that these terms and conditions supersede any prior agreement or arrangement.

10. Stock rotation and returnsIt is the Buyer’s responsibility to rotate products so that the oldest is sold first. No credit will be given for out of date products nor will they be exchanged. No returns of WINES AND SPIRITS will be accepted. In the instances of BEER, CIDER AND MINERALS carrying an open date, code goods must be returned in complete packs, good condition and not of mixed dates and must have the major part of their available life to run. Guidance on this matter is readily available from the Bottle Beer Department at the Brewery. We cannot guaranteecredit on returns of other Brewers’ Cask-conditioned Ales and even where credit is given delays of up to three months must be expected. Cask-conditioned Ales cannot be supplied on a sale or return basis. Returns of Draught Wine, Postmix Minerals and “Special Orders” will not be accepted. In the case of authorisation from St. Austell Brewery being granted for the return of goods due to overstocking, closing down or change of ownership we reserve the right to charge 5% of the value of the goods to cover costs of collection and administration.

11. Exclusion of liabilitySt. Austell Brewery Company Limited shall be under no liability whatsoever for loss or damage, death or personal injury howsoever arising other than for death or personal injury sustained by any person arising from the negligence of St. Austell Brewery Company Limited or under the Consumer Protection Act 1987.

12. InsolvencyEither party may immediately terminate trading by written notice if the other becomes insolvent or is deemed to be insolvent within the meaning of section 123 of the Insolvency Act 1986.

13. Money launderingFor the protection of our customers, we operate a money laundering reporting procedure. In certain circumstances, information will be revealed by us to the appropriate authorities in relation to any suspicion of money laundering.
