BRITISH COLUMBIA PORTFOLIO SUMMER 2010
Foreword In September 1967, my father Carmine D’Onofrio opened the family shoe import business in earnest with the signature location on Vancouver’s Commercial Drive, the focal point of the city’s Italian community. With an unwavering dedication to quality, value and service, Kalena’s Shoes thrived. Over the years, many in the Italian community voiced their opinion that with the containers of shoes already coming over from Italy, perhaps the family business should expand to include wines from the homeland. After all, the selection of Italian wines in the market at the time did leave room for improvement. In 1991, Stile Wines was born. The name ‘Stile’ ―pronounced ‘Stee-lay’ in Italian‖, corresponding to its English counterpart ‘style’, was chosen not only to represent the stylish wines that became part of the portfolio, but also to reflect the culture of incorporating wine stylishly as part of enjoying life to the fullest. Over time, the list of highly regarded Italian producers working with Stile grew, to the extent that Stile Wines became synonymous with Italian wine. To this day, we are proud to say that we offer one of the very finest portfolios of Italian wine in Canada. Along the way, we have strived to add products from reputable producers from all over the world, always keeping in mind our goal of offering the absolute best possible quality and value. While we will undoubtedly always be viewed as an Italian specialist, we can now lay claim to being a truly diversified, international importer. My father passed away in 2005, but his spirit remains very much alive in all that we do. We are happy to know that the fine products that we bring to this special part of the world have brought joy and a real appreciation for the finer things in life to so many. With this in mind, we invite you to peruse the latest catalogue of fine offerings from our agency. Grazie e buon santé,
Carmen D’Onofrio Jr. Managing Director

PATAGONIA, ARGENTINA
HUMBERTO CANALE At 39.2 degrees South, in Argentine Patagonia, wines coming from one of the world's most southern regions are made. This is the High Valley of the Río Negro, whose special climate, with very cold nights and intensely sunny days, is ideal for the development of fine grape varieties. The province of Río Negro is located in the northern part of Patagonia. The Negro River, with origins in the Andes Mountains, flows across Patagonia and into the Atlantic Ocean. Along its course, it gives birth to fertile valleys that are a real oasis in the middle of these wasted lands. In 1909, the Humberto Canale Winery was founded by the engineer who gave it his name. He played an important role in the development of the Upper Valley’s industry of small, individual wineries. His professional know-how promoted investigation and creativity, thus allowing the world to see that the region possessed a special terroir that gave birth to different, very characteristic, and undeniably excellent wines.

CLARE VALLEY, AUSTRALIA
PIKES Englishman Henry Pike immigrated to South Australia in 1878, settling in the Adelaide Hills. In 1886, he established the family brewing business called H. Pike & Co. This name became well known throughout South Australia for its quality beer, soft drink and tonic ale. The company used the English Pike fish on its labels, which remains to this day—a symbol of Pikes’ long heritage. Henry Pike’s great grandson Edgar was well established in the wine industry, and his sons Andrew and Neil both followed in their father’s footsteps, establishing Pikes in 1984 in the beautiful Clare Valley. The winery is situated in the historic, picturesque Polish Hill River sub-region on the eastern side of the valley. The climate in this area is cooler and the soils are quite unique to the rest of the region, attributes that impart distinctive flavours and aromas to the wines. Though they produce a number of varietals, Riesling has become the flagship for which Pikes is best known. The winery has consistently met its goals of producing absolute top quality varietal wines—worthy of the longstanding distinctive fish logo that is still found on all Pikes wines. White Wine

BAROSSA VALLEY, AUSTRALIA
TWO HANDS Two Hands is one of Australia’s most decorated wineries, making its most sought after wines. The ‘two hands’ are Michael Twelftree and Richard Mintz, who formed the company in 1999 with the clear objective of making the best possible Shiraz wines from prized Shiraz producing regions within Australia. Michael Twelftree’s background included years of exporting Australian wine to USA and Asia, while Richard Mintz was a former CEO of one of Australia’s leading cooperages in the Barossa Valley. The two old friends set out in 2000 with just 17 tonnes of fruit from the McLaren Vale and Padthaway wine regions. From the start, the wines were well received with a healthy stream of reviews, culminating with Robert Parker’s 2::4 declaration of Two Hands as ‘the finest negociant operation south of the equator’. Two Hands concentrates its efforts on sourcing the best fruit from the best Shiraz vineyards in Australia, working with its growers on achieving the full potential from each individual site. The results speak for themselves. Red Wine

MAIPO VALLEY, CHILE
TERRAMATER In 1996, at an age when most people think of retiring, the three Canepa sisters, Gilda, Edda and Antonieta, responded to their passion for producing fine wines that had been part of their family’s life since the 193:’s, linking their well established vineyard holdings into a state-of-the art, brand new winery facility called TerraMater, a name that tells us a lot about the company itself. It was born from exceptional land, with vineyards full of noble grape varieties and well established vines of 40, 50 and 60 years old, not to mention marvelous olive groves with thick trunks and orchards of mainly apple trees. TerraMater is now one of Chile’s best known medium size wineries. Huge investments in the winery have given it an edge over many competitors. Its economical, easy drinking wines are frequent winners in international competitions. Red Wine

LIMARI VALLEY, CHILE
CASA TAMAYA In the vineyards of Viña Casa Tamaya, located in the Limari Valley (400 km north of Santiago and only 20 km from the Pacific Ocean) were found vestiges of the ancient Diaguita culture, which reigned in this zone between the 8th and 15th centuries. Inspired by its culture, the winery was named after the highest peak above the Limarí Valley: Tamaya. Blessed with an exceptional climate in a land of virgin soils free from contamination, Tamaya is strategically located in the foothills of the majestic Andes Mountains. There, the winery has succeeded in achieving a perfect equilibrium between the combination of its varietal grapes and the character of its land. It is this balance of privileged characteristics which bestows unparalleled quality upon each of the varieties of the grapes, which are then carefully harvested by hand. This is the secret of how Tamaya brings to life the very finest, most innovative wines produced in the North of Chile. White Wine

LANGUEDOC-ROUSSILLON, FRANCE
CHATEAU DE CARAGUILHES
(100% CERTIFIED ORGANIC)
Historically, the Corbières region has been connected with vinegrowers and the making of wine. By the 12th century, the Abbey of Fontfroide was taken over by the monks of the Cistercian Order, highly skilled vinegrowers who undertook to restore the art of the vine in the Corbieres, once started by the Phoenicians and furthered by the Romans. So began the history of the domaine known as Caraguilhes. The famous chateau that one sees today was constructed in the early 17th century. The vines still grow in an ideal location known for its exceptional soil quality, with a mixture of clay and limestone. In 1935, the winery’s new owner became the only grower to refuse to use insecticides and weed killers or chemical fertilizers—well ahead of his time. Inspired by the same precision and philosophy, the same love of the soil and of authenticity, current owner Laurent Max continues this practice. Since 1990, the organic status of the wines of Caraguilhes are formally guaranteed by ECOCERT. White Wine

CANTINA TOLLO *** WINNER GRAN VINITALY AWARD *** Abruzzo is a land where great wine has been made for many centuries. Writers and poets have sung its praise since the times of ancient Rome. Natural splendour thrives in Abruzzo, a region which stretches from the mountains to the sea, and the only in Europe to devote a third of its territory to nature reserves. In this paradise, Cantina Tollo was founded over 40 years ago with a passion for producing quality wines that embody the culture of Abruzzo. The gentle breeze from the Adriatic creates a wonderfully mild climate over the hills of Cantina Tollo, as the perfect amount of rain and sun helps to produce their signature Montepulciano, Trebbiano and Cerasuolo wines. Tollo is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life through a promise that they have always kept—that its wines tell a story, through aroma, emotion and memory. White Wine

CASAL THAULERO The name of this prestigious winery is originated from ‘Casal Thaulero', the village where the Thauleros—a noble family established in Abruzzo since the sixteenth century—used to live. Their residence in the territory is proven by a marriage contract dated 9th March 1738. This contract describes the properties brought as dowry by Angela Thaulero, Don Gianfranco Thaulero's daughter. Towards the end of the 19th century, the Duke Giovanni Thaulero reclaimed his lands, planted modern vineyards, and created a huge winery, in a design considered to be modern for those times. In 1961, local winegrowers created a joint venture to bottle their wines and produce a high quality wine. This association was the first in Abruzzo to produce DOC wine, and was called Casal Thaulero, in honour of the Thauleros, who were forerunners in the modern winemaking process. White Wine

AGRIVERDE Biotechnical principles are at the heart of the newly redesigned Agriverde Winery, built in perfect harmony with the landscape. Natural materials and forms conjure up the rippling sea and gentle hillsides between the Adriatic coast and Mount Majella. All of the rooms have been built with eco-friendly materials, electrical installations have been screened against magnetic fields, and flooring and passages have been assembled with natural gluees. Everything has been done according to the philosophy of Agriverde. All transformation processes of Agriverde’s grapes from organic farming are carried out through the most modern and innovative technologies: from soft presses with 120 press programmes and temperature cutting down during pressing, to thermo-controlled tanks for refining, to the most advanced non-invasive filtration and wine-making systems. Agriverde has been able to achieve success in global distribution of its wines, while at the same time maintaining a minimal impact upon the land, relying on natural processes as opposed to chemistry. Their terroir-driven wines speak for themselves. Red Wine Natum Organic Montepulciano DOC 2007

PICHIERRI — VINICOLA SAVESE The history of this firm is closely connected to the grandfather-figure Gaetano Pichierri, who farmed the fruitful vineyards of Primitivo. He refined his knowledge of winemaking in the wine growers' cooperatives of Sava, made famous by its oenologists Don Amerigo Mancini and Guido Calò. Right after the war, Gaetano guided the Pichierri family to start their own production of selected wines, leaving to his sons Cosimo, Vittorio, Roberto and Aldo the duty to continue the family’s great tradition. Picchierri’s famous Tradizione del Nonno Primitivo is an Amarone-style wine made by leaving the grapes to hang and raisinify on the vines, creating a rich, intense, raisinate red wine with a delightful slight residual sweetness. It is a wine for hearty dishes and must be tried to be believed. Red Wine

Throughout the years, the cooperative underwent a series of updating improvements, passing from simple mass production to the current production of high quality wines using state-of-the-art winemaking techniques and the careful selection of grapes brought in by the members. Recently the cooperative changed its name to Cantine Del Colle to strengthen the new productive and business organization. Its wines have been praised the world over for their ripe flavours and intensity, showing off the truly unique style of winemaking from the Apulia region. Red Wine

CAMPANIA, ITALY
FEUDI DI SAN GREGORIO Feudi di San Gregorio, a symbol of today’s rebirth of fine wine from the south of Italy, is dedicated to the rediscovery of the unique flavours of the Mediterranean. The crusade began in the mid-8:’s with the idea of rewriting the history of winemaking in the Irpinia region. The central concept was to invest in a real future for the great wines of the South by upholding local traditions and developing their latent potential. In other words, to take a fresh look at Campania and her native grape varieties—Aglianico, Fiano, Greco and Falanghina. Over the last ten years, Feudi di San Gregorio has come to represent the growing reputation of the wines of Irpinia.

FRIULI, ITALY
COLLAVINI In 1896, the Collavini family oenological history began, with founder Eugenio supplying wealthy Udinese families with his wines, without ever imagining that a century later, they would reach the world over. In 1970, an innovative turn with sparkling wines took the winery to the peak of notoriety with Ribolla Gialla Brut, the result of careful research and an original method. During this decade, the winery acquired an old manor of the 16th century known as Corno di Rosazzo, to become the family’s residence and winery cellars. In 198:, Collavini’s operations were all combined in this prestigious manor, and Manlio, the present owner, invested heavily to enlarge production capabilities. In 1996 a comprehensive program was launched to ensure buttoned-down quality production at all levels, including loyalty agreements with local growers for careful grapes supervision, and upgrading of production equipment for soft pressing and temperature controlled vinification. Forward thinking has kept Collavini at the forefront of producers in the prestigious Friuli region. Rose Wine

UMANI RONCHI The foundation of the winery in Cupramontana by Dr Gino Umani Ronchi dates back to the 1950s. Later, Eng. Bianchi entered into partnership and the production and marketing of ‘Umani Ronchi’ wines increased notably. Today, Umani Ronchi owns 110 hectares in the Verdicchio Classico area, 60 hectares in the Rosso Conero, and 30 in Abruzzi. Though the winery is a leading exponent of two native Marches wines—Verdicchio and Rosso Conero—wines from foreign grape varieties, notably Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, have resulted in wines that have achieved international acclaim.

DI MAJO NORANTE Azienda Agricola Di Majo Norante is located to the north of the Gargano in Molise on the estate of the Marquees Norante of Santa Cristina. Since the 18::’s, its ancestors have dedicated themselves to vine cultivation (ancient wine cellars are located under the main town square and the old palace in Campomarino). In 1968, a modern canteen was constructed, along with the first replanted vines in the Ramitello zone. This zone has northeastern exposure, constant summer breezes, a light limestone soil, and a slope toward the Scabolone and Madonna Grande valleys, combining to create a very favorable grape growing environment. Di Majo Norante uses only estate grown grapes, cultivated without the use of chemical or synthetic additives, yielding a product that can be considered “biological”. Passion and love for the grapes are combined with the most advanced technology in farming methods and production facilities. Red Wine

MASCARELLO The members of the Giuseppe Mascarello family have been growing wines for more than 150 years in the prime Barolo region of Castiglione Falletto, including the prestigious Monprivato area. They have built on years of family experience to the present day Mauro Mascarello, who began in 1970 to vinify the grapes grown on each single vineyard separately, starting with the Monprivato Nebbiolo. In 1985, the efforts paid off with international recognition of the highest order. The 1978 vintage Barolo emerged as the best wine in the Forum Vinorum in London, with the only perfect score, and a ranking higher than 27 other Italian DOC and DOCG reds, and also 56 Châteaux, Grand Cru and Premier Cru producers, including such names as Petrus, Margaux, Latour, Lafite, Mouton Rothschild and HautBrion. To this day, the spectacular Barolos of Mascarello are highly decorated and well sought after by top buyers around the world. Red Wine

ENRICO SERAFINO Piedmont’s outstanding Roero wine zone is a seamless succession of hills on the left bank of the Tanaro, between Monferato and Langhe. This gentle but wild territory reaches elevations of 13:: feet. The main center of Roero is Canale d’Alba, a farming town with a rich history documented from the early Middle Ages, and home to Cantina Enrico Serafino, which was founded in 1878. Today, the winery is noted for its production of the classic Piedmont wines from the zone, especially Roero, Moscato d’Asti and Nebbiolo—wines that embody the region. Cantina Enrico Serafino’s vineyards cover the sand and clay hills of Roero. Other grapes are sourced from neighbouring zones, Langhe in particular, from where a limited number of carefully selected growers bring fruit from the finest vineyards. Today, a new innovative spirit is alive at Cantina Enrico Serafino, driven by a desire to discover new ways to achieve excellence. The long-established, 6000 square meter cellar now houses modern vinification equipment with both small and large barrels for aging. Sparkling Wine

SARDINIA, ITALY
ARGIOLAS Argiolas has firmly established itself as one of the very top producers from Sardinia, the newest critics’ darling region of Italy. Sardinia has followed in the footsteps of Sicily in making a name for itself through producing fabulously aromatic wines from indigenous grape varietals— at very fair prices. Argiolas’ history began in 1918, when Francesco Argiolas planted the first vineyard with the assistance of some returning Italian POWs. But it was Antonio Argiolas, whose great enthusiasm and experience in viticulture set the stage for greatness, buying new estates and setting up a modern farm. In the late 197:'s, Antonio’s sons Franco and Giuseppe reorganized the business in all aspects, from vineyards to cellars. They chose one of Italy's leading oenologists, Giacomo Tachis, who joined forces with oenologist Mariano Murru. Now three generations of the Argiolas family are together: patriarch Antonio (now 97 years old), his two sons and his grandchildren. White Wine

FIRRIATO
The Firriato winery near Trapani in the northwest of the island was founded in 1985 by the Di Gaetano family and is the personification of the "New Sicily". Starting with the 1994 vintage, scrupulously selected, ripe grapes from lowyielding, hillside vineyards have been vinified by a team of local and antipodean winemakers. The only aim was quality, using indigenous Sicilian and international grape varieties. Seven years with continuous growth, global distribution, and many medals and awards under their belt ―including ‘Best Italian Winery’ by Luca Maroni in 2007), Firriato truly is putting Sicily on the map!

FERRARI “The history of a wine lies in the history of the soil that nourishes the vines.” In 1902, after several years studying winemaking and viticulture in France, Giulio Ferrari decided to challenge his French counterparts with his winemaking skills on his own land. In the process, he created a masterpiece. The leadership of Casa Ferrari was passed from the founder to the Lunelli family in 1952. The names have changed, but the enthusiasm has remained the same. A century of history and Ferrari is the best selling, most recognized and most celebrated Italian spumante in the world. Sparkling Wine

TRENTINO - ALTO ADIGE, ITALY
TENUTA SAN LEONARDO The history of Tenuta San Leonardo dates back at least 1500 years, with the return of prisoners from Trentino, who erected a chapel in honor of the patron saint of prisoners, Saint Leonard. Today, the ancient monastery hospice, which once gave shelter to the destitute, is now the cellar where the wines mature in barrels. The estate has witnessed many historical events, including acting as headquarters in both world wars. Present owners the Guerrieri Gonzaga family have taken advantage of the specific terroir to create Bordeaux-inspired blended wines, under the guidance of master winemaker Carlo Ferrini and consultant winemaker Giacomo Tachis, who is considered to be a genuine maestro of Italian winemaking through his creation of some of Tuscany’s most influential wines from the 197:s onwards. This talented pair ensures calculated ageing—at least 6 months in large format Slavonian oak, then 24 months in small French oak barrels—and masterful blending of each contributing varietal. This is followed by at least one year of bottle ageing. The results are consistently nothing short of spectacular. Red Wine Dolomiti IGT 2004 [Cabernet Sauvignon/Cabernet Franc/Merlot]

ALTESINO Altesino is a highly regarded, world class winery situated northeast of Montalcino and covering an area of approximately 64 hectares. The vineyards cover an area of approximately 27 hectares, divided into three different sub zones called Altesino, La Velona and Montosoli. The grape variety Sangiovese di Montalcino makes up the largest part of the vineyards, as it is used for Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montalcino and Palazzo Altesi. Altesino has always been determined to produce wines of the highest quality possible; thus, the aging requirements for Brunello di Montalcino are even more stressed in the Altesino cellars.

PIANIROSSI The Pianirossi estate is a result of the vision and efforts of owner Stefano Sincini, originally a respected fashion entrepreneur, born and raised in the culture of wine. Sincini discovered the magnificent location just a stone’s throw away from Castello Banfi and the first slopes of Montalcino. He gathered a highly competent team, with consultation from acclaimed oenologists Carolo Ferrini and Gioia Cresti, and set about creating a wine unique to the terroir, deciding to bring from his native Marches the cuttings of Montepulciano to complement the traditional Tuscan Sangiovese and the Alicante and Petit Verdot. By slightly veering off the path of traditional Tuscan offerings, Pianirossi has established itself as a rising star of a new generation of Maremma estates. Red Wine

FATTORIA VITICCIO The Viticcio Estate stands amidst a rustic complex, charmingly situated on the gentle hillside overlooking sloping vineyards above the picturesque ancient town of Greve in Chianti, lying midway between Florence and Siena in the heart of the Chianti Classico region. Its founder, Lucio Landini, was a man deeply attached to Tuscan tradition. He and his wife Franca decided to aim high and count primarily on export. From modest beginnings, the focus remains the same today—the production of high quality wines worthy of an expert international clientele.

MONTEVERTINE Montevertine lies within the heart of the Chianti hills, in the community of Radda. Documents show that the site had been dwelled on since the 11th century. Traces of the original construction are still preserved. In 1967, Sergio Manetti, a steel product manufacturer, bought Montevertine as a holiday house, restoring it to its original dwelling destination. He then planted 2 hectares of vines and set up a small cellar to produce wine for friends. The first vintage produced in 1971 was more than decent, so Sergio presented it at Vinitaly. It was an immediate success and he was so enthused that only a few years later he gave up his main former activity to dedicate his efforts to winemaking. New vineyards were planted, new cellars installed, and expansion has continued to this very day.
Red Wine
With Sergio’s passing in 2:::, management passed to his son Martino Manetti, who is assisted by Klaus Johann Reimitz and Bruno Bini, the latter born in Montevertine and an in-depth expert of the zone and the soil. Giulio Gambelli, the expert wine taster, is the consultant and offers his assistance during the production of the wines. Size Retail Price Listing CSPC

PICCINI The family-owned Piccini winery was established in 1882 by Angiolo Piccini. In 1920, his son Mario continued its development by extending the company’s business across the domestic market in Italy. Piccini entered a second phase of rapid growth in the early 1960s, under the leadership of third-generation Pierangiolo Piccini. In 1983, Mario Piccini joined his father and helped make the U.S. market a priority, in a successful effort to strengthen the Piccini name. To this day, Piccini remains the largest producer of D.O.C.G. Chianti in Italy.
Red Wine
The Piccini winery is located in the heart of the Chianti Classico zone and has strong Tuscan traditions. Mario and Martina Piccini, the fourth generation of family winemakers, firmly guard the family philosophy of passion and quality, that shows through in all of their wines.

UMBRIA, ITALY
SPORTOLETTI Sportoletti’s winery is located near Spello and Assisi, two ancient medieval towns in the region of Umbria in central Italy, about 55 miles north of Rome. Umbria, the hilliest region in Italy, is an extremely green and pristine area, where nature and history blend together. Winemaking traditions in this region reach back to the Etruscans and Romans, but as in Burgundy, grape growing and winemaking were developed and enriched by the monks during Medieval times. The Sportoletti family has been in agriculture for generations and has always been dedicated to the production of fine wine in Umbria. Brothers Ernesto and Remo have followed their father Vittorio’s teachings on high quality productions. The family owns 50 acres of vineyards and produces four wines, two whites and two reds. Thanks to the impressive success of their wines, the overall production has soared to 200,000 bottles. Their Merlot, which is worth noting, is produced from old vines planted at Sportoletti more than 50 years ago. The soil’s richness, in conjunction with innovative methods of production, give Sportoletti’s wines their unique identity and make them among the best expressions of Umbrian winemaking. In 1998, the two Sportoletti brothers hired the highly esteemed and world renowned enologist Riccardo Cotarella, marking the start of a highly successful professional relationship. White Wine

MIONETTO Few lands identify themselves like Valdobbiadene so totally and directly with a completely special "drinking philosophy". Try, for example, tasting a glass of Prosecco - the most renowned "offspring" of these hills. You will feel that you have been projected into a world which you believed lost forever, where life still proceeds at a liveable pace and where values remain unchanged: equilibrium and lightness, elegance and genuineness, delight in getting together and enjoying life. From Prosecco to Cartizze and many other straightforward, generous wines the fascinating history of the vines and wines of Valdobbiadene has trodden a long path, but it has always been true to itself. You only need to travel along the Prosecco Road - the first enological route to have been created in Italy - to be aware of it all. In these places, the savours, nature, everything is still authentic and incomparable. It is in this land and with this singular tradition that an equally unique entrepreneurial story has become associated - that of the Mionetto family. Sparkling White Wine

BOTTEGA - La Cantina dei Poeti Originality, creativity and quality have elevated this winery to the next level. In 1992, Bottega diversified to create its Cantina dei Poeti sparkling wine line, which took Bottega in a new direction. The Petalo Moscato is a stunning wine that amazingly captures the essence of the naturally sweet Moscato grapes from which it is made. It has an aroma of flowers and fruits, and balances crisp acidity with peach and rose flavours. It truly is ‘The Wine of Love’. Its counterpart, the Prosecco ‘IL Vino dei Poeti’ ―‘The Wine of Poets’‖, is fresh, crisp and elegant, with a delicate fragrance of acacia blossoms. It is dry, refined and well balanced, with a persistent effervescence. It is well worthy of the line in which it is found. Sparkling White Wine

CA’ RUGATE Ca’ Rugate, established by the Tessari family in 1986, takes its name from the volcanic hills where most of the vineyards are to be found. The Ca’ Rugate vineyards cover 40 hectares, 30 of which are located within the commune of Monteforte d’Alpone in the rugged heart of Soave Classico, with 1: hectares in the commune of Montecchia di Crosara in nearby Valpolicella. Ca’ Rugate uses only indigenous grape varieties such as Garganega, and Trebbiano di Soave for white wines; and Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone for reds. The Soave wines of Ca Rugate are unique, produced from 100% Garganega grapes, without blending in Trebbiano or other inexpensive grapes, as is done for most Soave wines. They also utilize single vineyard production, resulting in wines that are among the best of their kind, with full, fresh fruit and hints of almonds. White Wine

BRUNELLI Ever since it has existed, the name Brunelli has has been closely linked to the area of San Pietro in Cariano, a small valley in the Valpolicella Classico area whose name derives from that of the Roman Cariae family. It is in this spot in the countryside where the Brunelli family has handed down from generation to generation the ancient passion which has made its wines known and appreciated all over the world. The estate is now in the hands of Luigi, the oenologist, and of his wife Luciana who, sharing Luigi’s expertise and passion, has created a special range of wines that distinguishes itself for both the virile and the feminine values it expresses. The character of a wine is the expression of its creator’s emotions. This is all the more true in the case of the wines from Brunelli estate. The Amarone Campo del Titari, with its forthright style that pulls no punches, is the very image of a determined and enigmatic craftsman of the soil like Luigi Brunelli. Luiciana, on the other hand, is mirrored in the nuances of the gentle and graceful Amarone Campo Inferi, with its feminine traits and respect for tradition. Red Wine

TEDESCHI Numerous generations of the Tedeschi family have dedicated love and devotion to viticulture in the Valpolicella, giving them an enviable wealth of experience, tradition, and nobility, all of which are used to achieve the highest level of quality. According to old documents which have recently come to light, the first purchase of vineyards was drawn up in 1630. The descendents followed suit, bringing prestige, respect and esteem to the family, to the extent that they were called upon to carry out important political and religious duties. In 1824, Nicolò Tedeschi purchased more vineyards, and with his skill and genuine personality, brought the family business many steps forward, to the extent that all successors would dedicate their lives to upholding the good name of the family and its wines. The most recent generation—Antonietta, Sabrina and Riccardo—work together to maintain the spirit of the Tedeschi family as upholders of the finest wines that The Veneto region can produce, and as purveyors of these wines to an attentive audience of buyers and consumers around the world.

CARPENE MALVOLTI Over 140 years of history, embracing four generations of the family, testify to Carpenè Malvolti’s long heritage of product quality and the prestige image of the brand. Convinced that a similar wine to champagne could be produced in Italy, Antonio Carpenè established Carpenè-Malvolti Winery in the Conegliano zone in the Veneto in 1868. He taught methods of cultivation to the local farmers, and co-founded the first school of Enology in Italy. In WWI, the winery was entirely destroyed, and son Etile Carpene reconstructed the company. In 1924, the first Prosecco label was released. In the mid 193:s, Etile’s son Antonio Carpenè Jr. was the first to affirm that the Charmat method was the one best suited for enhancing the characteristic aromas and elegance of certain Italian sparkling wines, such as Moscato d’Asti and Prosecco. Antonio reconstructed the winery after WWII, and went on to become a huge figure in Italian sparkling winemaking. Son Etoile is the current chairman, and has overseen the growth of the company into a well recognized global brand. Sparkling Wine

SPINATO The land on which Anna Spinato’s grapes are grown has been used for that same purpose since the 12th century. Wine was first produced there, on the banks of the Piave River, by the monks of the Sant’ Andrea Abbey. Even the Spinato logo tells of the family’s “passion and love for our culture and the tradition of winemaking.” Today, the wines reflect all the elegance and unpretentious sophistication that Anna Spinato herself is so well known for. Anna Spinato wines have been awarded medals at such events as Vinitaly, the Japan Wine Challenge, and MIWine of Milan. Indeed, the popularity of Anna Spinato’s wines is such that Spinato corks are embedded with a special microchip that guarantees the authenticity of every bottle. White Wine

NELSON, NEW ZEALAND
RICHMOND PLAINS
(100% CERTIFIED ORGANIC)
Located at the top of New Zealand’s South Island, Nelson is one of the world's finest cool-climate wine growing regions, blessed with the most sunshine hours in the country, cool autumn nights, and free-draining soils of ancient river beds, forming ideal grape growing conditions on the alluvial plains. This temperate climate, moderated by the surrounding mountains and the Pacific Ocean sea breezes, is perfect for producing vibrant fruit driven white wines and well-structured, elegant reds. Richmond Plains began in 1991 as a small vineyard owned by Lars and Samantha Jensen, who believe that great wines are made in the vineyard by working with nature. By using organic methods, without the use of synthetic herbicides, fungicides, pesticides and fertilizers, they can express the vineyard’s character in the wines. White Wine

COOPERS CREEK Coopers Creek sits in the heart of the Huapai and Kumeu wine region, about 35km northwest of Auckland. It is an area steeped in tradition, and home to some of the oldest established vines in New Zealand. It was here, in 1980, that Andrew and Cynthia Hendry first established the winery, with the aim of producing the very highest quality wines, principally dry in style, and reflecting New Zealand's outstanding cool climate viticultural conditions. In 1982, the first Coopers Creek vintage was produced, and soon after that, the first label released onto the local market. Coopers Creek was in production as a "microboutique' winery. The 1980s saw the winery steadily develop and expand with the acquisition of a second vineyard site at Middle Road in Hawkes Bay and the appointment of Kim Crawford as winemaker. The winery began to develop contracts with growers in the other principal wine growing regions of New Zealand—the policy being to grow grapes where they grow best, reflected in the wines produced. Coopers Creek continued to move forward in the 1990s, flourishing in growth and production, and in the recognition of delivering quality wine. With a host of wine show success behind it, Coopers Creek achieved the consideration as one of the best small/medium-sized wineries of the decade. Simon Nunns joined Coopers Creek in 1997, taking over winemaker reins from Kim, who departed to set up his own label. The next year produced one of the best vintages ever seen, and moving forward with a host of golds and other medal winning wines from that vintage, Simon has continued to enhance the Coopers Creek label. Today, Coopers Creek is still a family owned, New Zealand winery enjoying another growth phase. The company currently employs twenty-two full time employees and is exporting wine to over twenty countries worldwide. White Wine

MARLBOROUGH, NEW ZEALAND
MOUNT FISHTAIL Mount Fishtail vineyard is fully owned by the Hengstler family—Konrad, Sigrun and their two sons, Conrad and Carlo. The Hengstlers originally emigrated from Germany to Melbourne in Australia, where they settled for over twenty years. While travelling through New Zealand, Konrad discovered Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, and was immediately attracted to this outstanding wine. From that point, the decision to move to Marlborough and become involved in the wine industry was an easy one. The family planted their first vines in 1996, producing a range of wines from their two vineyards in the Wairua and Waihopai Valleys, totaling 40 hectares. Each year after fermentation, wines from the two distinct sites are used for the Mount Fishtail label, ensuring the same high quality and consistent flavours every year. White Wine

WESTERN CAPE, SOUTH AFRICA
GOLDEN KAAN Golden Kaan wines originate from selected vineyards at the southernmost tip of Africa – the fertile, lush Western Cape centered on Cape Town. Here, the Golden Kaan varietals flourish in the rich soils of the Table Mountain sandstone along with the Malmesbury shale, and profit from the ideal terrain of the Western Cape, which resembles a Mediterranean climate with warm, dry summers and good winter rainfall, ensuring the minimum amount of irrigation. These weather and terroir conditions ensure sun-ripened varietal grapes of the highest quality, which are then used to produce the full-bodied and unique wines of Golden Kaan. Golden Kaan remains committed to environmentally friendly vineyard practices and wine sourcing. All the wines and grapes sourced for Golden Kaan derive from vineyards that are fully IPW (Integrated Production of Wine) certified. White Wine

Its wines have quickly been placed among the very best from Spain. The winery lies in the Tajuña River Basin, where the ancient Romans enjoyed the wine from the Iberian Peninsula. A century ago, Galician fisherman travelled to Madrid to trade their fish for fine wine. Today, modern winemaking has brought a renaissance to the region—the ‘Vinos de Madrid’ have gained rapidly in popularity worldwide. The online wine review Iberians on Wine wrote, “Tagonius is a top Madrid red, clearly connected with the wine revolution of La Mancha…” Red Wine

NICHOLS Nichols is a small family winery located in Paso Robles, California. It was established in 1991to produce ultra premium wine, with limited production of each varietal around the 1200 case level. This allows owner and winemaker Keith Nichols to place great care and attention to the tending of the vines, maintaining lower yields and high quality, and to the maximum extraction of varietal character and flavour in the wines. He believes in ageing his wines over extended time periods to ensure that they have had time to mellow tannins and develop complexity, for wines that show off magnificent, fully developed, multiple layered flavour.

DELICATO FAMILY VINEYARDS When Gasparé Indelicato emigrated to California from the small village of Campobello in Italy, it was only natural that he would do the one thing he knew he could do better than anything else—grow wine grapes, like his father, grandfather and several generations before him. He planted the first grapes for Delicato Family Vineyards in the spring of 1924. Within a few years, winemakers across the country knew of the quality of Gasparé’s California grapes. His hard work was rewarded with more orders than he could fill. During Prohibition, Gasparé’s grapes were sought after by home winemakers seeking quality grapes for home winemaking. But early success turned into hard times. Grapes sales declined during the Great Depression. In 1935, with Prohibition repealed, Gasparé made the decision to turn a portion of his grapes into wine, using techniques his father had taught him. In the old hay barn by the vineyard, Gasparé, his brother-in-law, and their twin wives took turns with a hand driven press to produce their first vintage consisting of 3,451 gallons (just under 1,500 cases) of wine. Gasparé established a reputation for great winemaking, and other producers in the budding California wine industry approached Gaspare and his family for custom-made wines. To meet the demand, the family acquired additional vineyard land. Gasparé’s three sons, Vincent, Frank and Anthony, joined the family winery as the business grew. Today, Chris and Jay Indelicato, third generation family members and Anthony’s sons, are leading the business into the future under the name of DFV Wines, now the fifth largest winery operation in the United States.

GLORIA FERRER “Gloria Ferrer reliably produces some of California best sparkling wines, from the fruit-forward blanc de noirs to the richly structured Carneros Cuvée. On a warm day, step out onto the terrace of the visitors center as you sip your bubbly or one of the winery's Pinot Noirs or Chardonnays…” Wine Spectator, Travel to California Wine Country, June 15, 2008
In 1982, the Ferrer family, proprietors of the world’s largest producer of sparkling wine, Freixenet U.S.A., purchased 25: acres of land in Sonoma’s Carneros wine district, where they planted vineyards with the traditional sparkling wine grapes of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. In 1986, their state-of-the-art winery, with Spanish-style architecture and breathtaking vista terrace, overlooking the estate vineyards and the rolling Carneros hills, opened to the public. The winery was named after José Ferrer's beloved wife. The winery now cultivates 385 acres in Carneros and produces a range of sparkling and still wines. Gloria Ferrer is dedicated to the production of wines that reflect the artistry of the winemaker and the marriage of vine to place in the vineyard. Gloria Ferrer’s still wines complement the sparkling wines that will always remain the first love of the Ferrer family. White Wine

U.S.A. WILLAMETTE VALLEY, OREGON
BENTON-LANE Steve and Carol Girard have been owners of Benton-Lane since 1988. They headed north from their home state California, feeling that Oregon’s cooler climate offered the possibility of producing Pinot Noir with better balance, structure, and more interesting flavours. They settled on a property called ‘Sunnymount’ in southern Willamette Valley, named for its rain shadow position due east of the highest peaks in the coastal range. Sunnymount straddles the border between Benton and Lane counties. The vineyard has grown to 138 acres, planted mostly to Pinot Noir, with 7 distinct clones of rootstocks carefully matched to the planting location. In 2004, the winery began full production of Pinot Gris. Benton-Lane is distributed throughout the U.S. and various international markets, and continues to be highly regarded for its exceptional crafted wines, showing off the amazing capabilities of the Willamette Valley.

BOOKWALTER The Bookwalter family roots are deep in agriculture and the Washington wine and viticulture industry. With several of the top vineyard sources in the state and a commitment to excellence in winemaking, Bookwalter Winery continues to fulfill the growing demand for ultra premium wines from Washington State. In 1997, John Bookwalter joined the family winery, established by parents Jerrold and Jean, as the 10th generation of Bookwalters to be involved in agriculture, focusing on producing ultra premium red wines. To do so, he joined with world-class winemaker/vineyard consultant Zelma Long, who had just retired from her illustrious 30 year wine industry career. Success was immediate, as both the 2000 vintage Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon wines were released to rave reviews. The next two vintages brought two top 100 wines of the year rankings, several 90 point-plus Parker ratings and another Wine Spectator "Wine of the Week" acknowledgement. Red Wine

SPIRITS THE VENETO, ITALY
DISTILLERIA BOTTEGA Distilleria Bottega was set up in 1977 by Aldo Bottega, a master distiller with over 30 years of experience. The distillery began modestly, operating in the local grappa market. In 1983, with the death of its founder, son Sandro took on the management of the company with the assistance of siblings Barbara and Stefano. In a few years, Distilleria Bottega left its anonymity, thanks to an innovative distillation system that makes grappa mellower and more delicate. In 1987, the Alexander brand joined Bottega; this new brand is intended for those consumers who have developed a much more educated and refined palate. All Alexander Grappa has its origin from very fresh and vinous marcs that are distilled in copper stills following the steam distillation in order to guarantee the highest quality. The Venetian blown glass bottles, designed by Sandro Bottega, are the ideal container to view the clarity and transparency of the Alexander Grappa. They were also the object of a prestigious international exhibition called “Art in Grappa”. Spirits

LUIGI FRANCOLI The Francoli family traces its Italian heritage back to Campodolcino, a small alpine village close to the Swiss border. Begun by Luigi Guglielmo in 1875, the Francoli family has distilled grappa for five generations, though the family tradition dates back even further. The village of Campodolcino once had more than 80 grappa distilling families, despite the fact that this rugged mountain terrain is devoid of vinaccia, the raw material used for the production of grappa. The vinaccia had to be brought to Campodolcino from surrounding areas. From those 80 families, today there are only three still actively distilling grappa. In 1951, at the age of only 21, Luigi founded his own distillery. His 4 younger brothers (Franco, Augusto, Giuseppe and Giovanni) joined Luigi supporting his dream of founding a prosperous Grappa Distillery. Thus the Fratelli Francoli distillery was born. For the Francoli family, grappa distillation is not only an art but also a science. Over time Luigi modified the 'Berti' distillation equipment to obtain a grappa which was more suitable to the family's palate. Luigi's son, Alessandro, now the president of Distillerie Francoli, acquired the same passion for grappa distillation, and at university his thesis focused on the techniques of ageing grappa. As a result, through the combination of Luigi's 'art' and Alessandro's 'science', Luigi Francoli Grappa is renowned for being one of the smoothest grappas produced in Italy. Since 1951, Distillerie Francoli has expanded into one of the most ill ustrious Grappa distilleries in Italy. Brandy

SPIRITS ITALY
VECCHIA ROMAGNA/MONTENEGRO Vecchia Romagna comes from a great company tradition that dates back to 1820, when the refined French distiller Jean Bouton, the founder of the first steam distillery, arrived in Italy. Distilled from prized Trebbiano grapes, Vecchia Romagna Black Label is an unmistakable brandy. An exceptional recipe, advanced distillation techniques, and aging for a minimum of three years in small oak casks give it a warm intense colour, an aromatic, harmonious, complex fragrance, and a smooth dry taste. For these reasons, it has become the default Italian brandy in the marketplace. Amaro Montenegro is a traditional amaro distilled using 40 herbs obtained from around the world, including vanilla and orange peels. It uses a unique soaking and distillation process, resulting in a liquor that is sweet in taste, with a slightly bitter finish. It was first produced by famous Italian spirits manufacturer Stanislao Cobianchi in the late 19th century and is named after the second queen of Italy, Princess Elena of Montenegro. It is extremely popular as an after-coffee drink ―‘ammazzacaffe’ in Italian‖. Brandy

PINK 47 Multi-award winning Pink 47 Gin was launched in the spring of 2007, to immediate critical acclaim. It is distilled by the UK’s second largest distiller, which produces a staggering 6.5 million 9L cases of spirits every year. Their roots trace back 250 years and today specialize in the distillation of traditional London Dry Gin. In 2007, they won no less than 18 awards for this new product. While the process of distillation of London Dry Gin is widely understood, Pink 47 Gin certainly follows its own production path. Specifically, it is the use of the twelve carefully selected botanicals used in the recipe, including almonds, cassia and nutmeg, that helps to give the gin such a distinct sensory profile. The remarkable Pink 47 Gin bottle takes its shape from the legendary Khavaraya Pink Diamond, which has been missing for over 4:: years, and was reputably shaped “like a sublime teardrop of spiritual joy”. The search for the Khavaraya symbolizes the company’s struggle to craft a perfect gin with which to make definitive cocktails. Facets flash the pink tones of the label through the crystal clear liquid to create a distinctive ‘pink’ package. Gin

SPRINGBANK DISTILLERY Springbank Distillery is a true original in many regards. It is the oldest distillery in Scotland that survives in the ownership of its founders, the Mitchells, Scotland’s senior distilling family. The present distillery was built in 1828 on the site of the previous illicit distillery of Archibald Mitchell. Springbank is the signature producer of Campbeltown, one of the five recognized production regions of scotch. It has its own unique and delightful nuances which make it among the world's best single malt producers. Springbank is unique amongst Scotland’s distilleries in that all parts of the production process, from traditional malting to bottling, are carried out at the one location. Of note, it is the only distillery that has never used chill filtering and the addition of caramel to add back colour in the production of its fine malts, ensuring that the essential oils, esthers and proteins are maintained in the product, guaranteeing whiskies of the finest pure aroma and flavour.

ANCHOR BREWING San Francisco’s famous Anchor Steam, the classic of American brewing tradition since 1896, is virtually handmade, with an exceptional respect for the ancient art of brewing. The deep amber color, thick creamy head, and rich flavour all testify to its traditional brewing methods. Anchor Steam is unique, for its brewing process has evolved over many decades and is like no other in the world. The ‘steam’ reference comes from the fact that the brewery started with no way to chill the boiling wort, so they pumped it to large open-top bins on the roof for it to be chilled by the cool air blowing in off the Pacific Ocean. Thus while brewing, the brewery had a distinct cloud of steam around the roof let off by the wort as it cooled. Anchor Brewing continues this tradition with the other fine beers that it produces, each one a distinctive, premium, hand-crafted beer of the finest quality. Beer

BEER GERMANY
KULMBACHER The Kulmbacher Brewery Corporation was founded in 1895. In the 195:s, it set out specifically to make the world’s biggest export beer. Naturally, it would be done according to the Bavarian Purity Law, using nothing but barley malt, yeast, hops and water. The results impressed even the high expectations of its own consumers, as German beer consumers picked Kulmbacher as the best Pilsner in Germany. Kulmbacher is the only brewery in Germany that displays a coat of arms of a city in its trademarks. This was approved by Kulmbach city council in 1926. This city at the center of the country, not far from the western border of old Bohemia, is at the heart of Bavarian brewing. It is here where the best balance between the malty and hoppy elements of a classic Pils is achieved. Beer

BIRRA MENABREA The historic Menabrea brewery – the oldest in Italy – was built in 1846 in the town of Biella at the foot of the Italian Alps. Still run by the founding family, it is now the country's only fully Italian-owned brewery. Menabrea 1846 is still brewed in the original building, which boasts an extensive network of underground cellars where the beer is fermented and aged. Menabrea 1846 is a premium prestige lager beer. Additive free, it is the only Italian lager still brewed by bottom fermentation, a completely natural ‘slow fermentation’ process using spring water from the Alps and brewed with malt, maize, hops and yeast. Unlike mass produced beer, no water is later added to standardize the alcohol content. The results are a testament to eight generations of brewing expertise by the Menabrea family - a full bodied beer with a light colour and optimum flavour. Menabrea 1846 has won numerous international awards, the first being the Gold Medal Award at the London International Exhibition in 1925, and the most recent being the top prize for two years running at the Chicago International Beer Championships in 1997, 1998, and then again in 2000.

QUILMES Say Quilmes in Argentina, and you mean “beer.” The name has been synonymous to the beverage, and this could be traced way back to 1888, when the Quilmes brewery was founded by German immigrant Otto Bemberg, in cooperation with the Quilmes province of Buenos Aires. It has since contributed to the development of what is known as the Quilmes zone in Buenos Aires. Quilmes, an ancient Indian name, was actually first brewed in 1890. It started as a family business with strict focus on quality, distribution and solid communication with clients and customers. It has become somewhat of a national symbol, owning 75% of the domestic beer market share in Argentina. It sponsors the beloved national football team, and its colours are those of the national flag of Argentina. Quilmes is golden in colour and rich in texture, delivering a refreshing, light hoppy taste with a crisp dry finish. This is achieved through utilizing only the finest premium ingredients sourced from the rich lands of the Pampas and Patagonia regions. Beer Quilmes Lager
