up the mountain The venerable Ben Nevis distillery may have endured years in the wilderness, but it’s now back at the top – just like its namesake peak – with an armful of treasured awards GOLD MEDALS for a host of Ben Nevis whiskies this year are high-profile proof that the distillery has entered an exciting new chapter. 2014 has so far saw the producer secure two Gold and two Master medals in the Single Malt Premium category of The Spirits Business World Whisky Masters, while last year the company’s 15 Year Old single cask expression, Ben Nevis Malt, won gold medals at both the Beverly Hills

Ross has been working with one aim in mind – to return Ben Nevis to its glory days when Long John’s son ran the distillery Spirits Competition and the International Spirits Challenge. The same whisky also went on to scoop a Masters Award in The Spirits Business Scotch Whisky Masters, with this top accolade also going to the McDonald’s Traditional Ben Nevis malt. Finally, the judges at 2013’s IWSC awarded a gold (outstanding) medal and trophy to the Ben Nevis 15 Year Old, single cask, cask strength, single malt. Having recently celebrated its 185th anniversary, the distillery has spent over

20 years quietly rebuilding its reputation after almost 50 years of somewhat unconventional management. Once one of Scotland’s most powerful distilleries, Ben Nevis was founded in 1825 by “Long John” MacDonald, but it ran into trouble by the late 1930s and closed down – along with all but four producers – at the beginning of the Second World War. Between then and 1989, when it was the acquired by Japanese firm Nikka (a subsidiary of Asahi Breweries), Ben Nevis acquired a “chequered past” according to John Carmichael, visitor centre manager at the distillery and a long-standing employee. This saw the company pass through the ownership of eccentric Canadian businessman Joseph Hobbs and his son, as well as Whitbread’s spirits division, Long John International. As a consequence, Ben Nevis has seen occasional gaps in its production, as well as unusual developments, such as the installation of a column still alongside the traditional pot stills used for malts. The former still, designed for making grain whisky, was removed by Whitbread, which bought Ben Nevis in

1981 from Joseph Hobb’s son, before closing the distillery in 1986 and finally selling it to Nikka in 1989. However, since Japanese ownership and the appointment of Colin Ross to run the operation, the distillery has begun its return to prominence. One aspect of this revival has been the introduction of the 10 Year Old single malt, which was launched in 1999 and has since gone on to collect numerous international awards. In essence, Ross has been working with one aim in mind – to return Ben Nevis to its glory days when Long John’s son, Donald Peter MacDonald ran the distillery. Aside from the introduction of various age statements, Ross has added a special release single malt called McDonald’s Traditional Ben Nevis, an attempt to recreate a whisky from 1882, following extensive study of warehouse records and the acquisition of a 140-yearold Ben Nevis malt at auction. Carmichael says this release has achieved an amazing reception, with little marketing. Indeed, he says all the distillery’s customers show affection and loyalty to the Ben Nevis brand. “We have been building up a tremendous band of friends who phone us up and ask what’s coming out next – and they buy without even tasting,” he adds. “They say whisky is made from three ingredients: water, barley and yeast,” says Carmichael, “but at Ben Nevis, there are six: water, barley, yeast, patience, people and hospitality in equal measures.” Add to that the mounting pile of awards, and Carmichael concludes: “It’s a cliché, but if we could get the break, we would be the star – people would be saying, ‘where have you been all these years?’”

foreword With new initiatives underway, it is perhaps not surprising that the IWSC grew once again to its highest ever level of entries HAVING BEEN involved with the IWSC for eight years now, one of the things that makes the role so rewarding is the constant change and innovation in the wines and spirits markets, and we as a team at the IWSC relish the challenge and opportunities this offers us. In 2014 we have launched a number of new initiatives ensuring that we make it as easy as possible for people to enter, and that we offer them awards and support that most closely reflect the pressures and opportunities their businesses face. This year we launched a partnership with Hellmann Beverage Logistics that offered a fixed price shipping option to entrants from virtually anywhere in the world, reducing the overall cost of entry to the competition. This has been enthusiastically taken up and is something we will look to build on further in 2015. We have also dramatically increased the amount of marketing materials produced in languages other than English alongside increasing the number of people in the team able to respond to queries in other languages. This year also sees us begin a new partnership with the BBC Good Food Show at Olympia where we will be hosting the IWSC World of Wines Experience. Attendees will have the opportunity taste some of the fabulous

wines that have been recognised in this year’s competition. With such initiatives underway it is perhaps not surprising that the IWSC grew once again to its highest ever level of entries. In wines, Australia was awarded the most medals, closely followed by Italy and France; however in terms of trophies that honour goes to South Africa – congratulations to them all. Turning to spirits, this remains a truly dynamic sector with innovation coming across all categories. Scotch remains our largest entry and this posted double digit growth, an astonishing achievement for such an already large sector; however gin continues the growth it has shown in recent years and is now our third largest spirits category thanks to year-on-year growth of over 50%. As ever we continually review trophies to ensure that they are representative of the marketplace. This this year saw the launch of an Online Retailer award won by Masters of Malt, reflecting the different consumer experience offered by such outlets. We also increased the trophies for gin with the introduction of awards to recognise London Dry and Contemporary styles individually and next year will add a flavoured gin trophy category in recognition of the continued diversity coming through.

For a number of years now we have held a tasting of our spirits winners in conjunction with the Worshipful Company of Distillers and, having moved to Vintners Hall to accommodate visitor demand, it is pleasing to note that once again the event was sold out, offering winners the opportunity to be tasted by a very discerning audience. The competition is in many ways made possible by the generosity of our sponsors and this year I am pleased to welcome Amazon, Encirc Wines, Vini del Trentino and Prowein for their support and recognition of the importance of quality. I would also like to acknowledge the IWSC operations team who have always been the backbone of the competition upon which our growth is built. This year however they received industry recognition by winning Best Operations Team at the 2014 Conference Awards: well done to them and to all our winners!

Allen Gibbons Group Chief Executive Officer

Thank you to our media partners for their continued support:

president’s message

STEAK TARTARE and a glass of Malbec with soda: that was my great- grandfather Nicola Catena’s daily breakfast meal. Through this ritual, Nicola regularly reminded himself of the “promised land” he had found in Argentina after leaving a famine-stricken Italy in 1898. My great-grandfather was one of six million mostly Spanish and Italian immigrants who came to Argentina between the 19th and 20th centuries in search of a brighter future. They continued their Old World traditions in this new home, one of which was drinking wine with every meal. In the 1980s, our wines were relatively unknown outside South America, despite Argentina being the fourth largest producer of wine in the world. During that same time, my father, a third generation vintner and Columbia University-trained economist, was invited to UC Berkeley as a visiting scholar. There he witnessed something he had never imagined possible: the Californians, led by a man named Robert Mondavi, had decided to challenge the French monopoly on fine wine. My father returned to Argentina with the vision and determination to make Argentine wines that were capable of standing alongside the best in the world.

6

Today, almost 30 years after his original Californian inspiration, my father, Nicolas Catena Zapata, has received awards from all over the world for his pioneering work on Malbec and for advancing the Argentine wine region as a whole. Some of you may know that I share my responsibilities as managing director of the family winery, Bodega Catena Zapata, with a part-time practice as an accident and emergency physician in San Francisco, California. You might imagine that by having such an impressive father—and I do admit to shamelessly idolising him since birth—I might have thought of studying winemaking or something related to wine. Yet my participation in the early stages of my father’s wine revolution was limited to accompanying him to France as his official translator, probably the easiest and most pleasant “job” that I have ever performed! Early on at University, I felt compelled to pursue a profession that would be primarily dedicated to helping people. I was indeed perfectly comfortable with the thought that I

would spend my life drinking rather than making the family’s wines. When I was close to finishing medical school at Stanford in California, I was asked by a local distributor to go on a ride-along with a wine sales person to see if a certain wine buyer could be persuaded to put our wine on his list. He politely told me after tasting the Catena Malbec, “I love it. It’s a great wine, but I can't sell it because nobody knows what Malbec is.” That was the turning point for me. I realised that my father and my

country needed my help – and desperately! Baron Philippe de Rothschild once famously said: “Wine is a great business, except that it takes 300 years to do it well.” I knew we didn’t have 300 years, so I immediately persuaded my father to create a research institute which we now call the Catena Institute of Wine. At the Institute, we proceeded to test and challenge everything that was known about Malbec and high altitude, two areas of winemaking and viticulture that were virtually unknown to the world. We made selections from century-old Malbec plantings; we experimented with Malbec vinification until we realised that Malbec needed to be handled more like Pinot Noir than like a Bordeaux variety; we studied our high altitude terroir until we understood the complex relationship between sunlight intensity and the cool Andean mountain air. Today our Institute performs over 1,000 micro-vinifications per year and publishes in prestigious wine journals all over the world. Most importantly, the wines of our region, of Mendoza and the other Argentine winemaking provinces, are recognised today as truly world-class. And Malbec has become as much a symbol of Argentina as football, tango and beef. The IWSC stands for this bright new world that we live in: one where diversity is celebrated and cherished. The wine and spirits industry is a place where big and small family wineries as well as national and international distillers can join hands with distributors and merchants around the world to bring delight and variety to consumers. I want especially to congratulate the IWSC for increasing its wines and medals from Argentina and South America as a whole this year, in addition to every other wine and spirits category, in particular, gin and whisky. I very much look forward to congratulating the winners of the 2014 competiton in person and I humbly thank you for honoring me with the 2014 IWSC presidency.

LEADING

the call From TV to the Wine Gang and now her first book, few people are spreading the wine word as widely as IWSC Communicator of the Year Jane Parkinson How did you catch the wine bug? At university, more specifically the year I studied in Dijon. I needed to conduct all my research for my final year’s dissertation during my time in France, Burgundy was on my doorstep, so it made sense for the subject to be wine. I was blissfully undaunted by all the incredible producers I met during that time, purely because I was so ignorant, so when I think back to that time today it makes me both cringe and feel proud in equal measure! You recently joined the Saturday Kitchen wine team – how have you found the move into TV? I love to talk and especially to talk about wine to people, and I had done quite a lot of filming before, just not specifically for TV. But I’m still talking to people through a lens, so I would like to think that it has been a pretty smooth transition. How can the trade improve the way it talks to consumers about wine? Interesting question! Well, far be it for me to say what people should do or even whether it needs to improve, but all I would say is that everyone – whether it’s an importer, a merchant, a sommelier, a journalist, a communicator – has their own style, their own voice and their own audience. That’s what makes the industry – and the wines we have in the UK – so brilliant and diverse, and I think people should be true to that. There’s nothing more transparent than someone faking who they are or what they’re about. Consumers don’t need to know anything about wine to pick up on whether the passion, style and knowledge is genuine. Are there any regions or styles that we should be re-evaluating at the moment?

8

IWSC Report 2014

Re-evaluation of wine regions and styles is a perennial process. As tempting as it is, I don’t think we should ever be complacent about any style, region, or grape. And I think that’s especially the case today when forces at either end of the spectrum can change a wine’s personality so much. By that I mean not only has technology never been so advanced but there have never been so many people obsessed with making minimum-intervention wine, which, when taken to the limit, can render a wine origin-less in character. We hear you have a book coming out – what sort of audience is it targeting? You hear right! It’s called Wine & Food. The audience? Anyone who loves flavour! The flavour of wine, the flavour of wine and food together – all of it. The book is written in a very conversational tone, as though I’m talking to friends over dinner when they’re looking for answers to questions that they think are embarrassing but are usually very reasonable things to ask, both about wine and matching wine with food. Plus it’s dotted throughout with pages that will hopefully be an extra little guide for people about wine in general and what’s happening in the wine world today – such as explaining oak; matching wines with takeaway food; the difference between organic, biodynamic, and natural; and why Sherry is now back on people’s must-drink list. Any other projects we should know about? Well, The Wine Gang has its best ever lineup for this year’s Christmas fairs, and some exciting new plans on the horizon for 2015, which I can’t go into just yet – is this where I can plug our website winegang.com to say “watch this space”?! Also, I’m just in

the process of contributing to another book, called 30-Second Wine, which I believe is coming out in 2015. db

With 20 years at Piper-Heidsieck behind him, the time is ripe for cellar master Régis Camus to receive this highest of accolades HAVING BEEN at the helm of PiperHeidsieck for the last 20 years, cellar master Regis Camus has had time to hone his craft and is now keen to communicate the Champagne house’s focus on quality to the international market. Camus takes quality so seriously that he refused to release the house’s prestige cuvée, Rare, between the years of 1990 and 1998 as the standard wasn’t good enough. With reserve wines now up to the required level, this top expression is set to make more regular appearances, having been released in ’98, ’99 and, most

recently, ’02. “Champagne embodies conviviality, sophistication and extravagance, but a Piper-Heidsieck Champagne is also a great wine to be enjoyed in its own right,” insists Camus. “With the [non vintage] cuvée, you are certain of ready-made luxury; with other cuvées, you can taste something more precise, a more golden colour perhaps, more candied citrus notes, or more toasted hints; with Rare, you move into the world of haute couture.” The house owns vineyard land from the Montagne de Reims to the Côte des Bar,

which Camus believes provides the perfect Pinot for the Piper house style. “I want a Champagne with fruit,” he says of the brut non vintage, which since Camus took over has seen its constituent grapes drawn from as many as 100 different crus, compared to around 60 previously. With Piper known for its fullbodied nature, Camus focuses on Pinot Noir in the house’s flagship, traditionally using around 60% in the blend, along with Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier from the Grande and Petite Montagne de Reims. Forming the rest of the Piper

winemaker range is a brut vintage, Rosé Sauvage, Cuvée Sublime and prestige cuvée Rare. Soon after Camus’ arrival at PiperHeidsieck in 1994, he began to take a number of important steps, both in the vineyard and cellars, towards improving quality. With the opening of a new winery in 1995 came the opportunity to vinify varieties and crus individually, while the same year saw Camus take the long-term decision to begin building up the house’s collection of reserve wines. “For the last 20 years we haven’t really talked about the quality of Piper-Heidsieck,” he says. Piper-Heidsieck started life as a cloth and wine trading company called

‘Champagne embodies conviviality, sophistication and extravagance, but a Piper-Heidsieck Champagne is also a great wine to be enjoyed in its own right’ Heidsieck & Co in 1785. Founded by Reims-based draper Florens-Louis Heidsieck, who was keen to make “a cuvée worthy of a queen”, the house quickly gained a reputation for distinctive Champagne, which won favour at the French court. Following Heidsieck’s death in 1828, his nephew Christian joined entrepreneur Henri-Guillaume Piper to continue the business, with the fizz becoming the official Champagne of 14 royal and imperial courts. François d’Aulan took over the business in 1957 and presided over the house for 33 years, focusing on the development of the company and the preservation of the family heritage. In 1988 he passed the baton to the Hériard Dubreuil family, who consolidated the international development of the maison, which is now owned by EPI and managed by Cecile Bonnefond. db

INDIA’S FIRST IWSC GOLD OUTSTANDING

Deep, old gold colour. Fascinating nose with mysterious Indian combinations of spice including cinnamon, nutmeg and some ginger; very attractive. Deep tumble of flavours into a smooth flowing mouth. Rich and full with all the manner of spices getting a spirit lift as they pass over the palate. Smooth and ever so satisfying. IWSC Judges

The world’s finest spice liqueur is still handcrafted in small batches to a secret recipe dating back to the days of the Portuguese Empire. Armada is proudly made with only natural spices and fruit – and absolutely no artificial ingredients. Perhaps this is why we are the first Indian IWSC Gold Outstanding winner in 45 years of the competition.

The combination of heritage and innovation has proved a winning one for Sazerac, as it continues in its drive for expansion and experimentation THE HISTORY of Sazerac stretches back to a golden age of entrepreneurship in the thriving southern US city of New Orleans. In 1869, Thomas H. Handy purchased the Sazerac Coffeehouse in the city and began to acquire and market brands of liquor. He bought out the rights to Peychaud’s Bitters in 1873 and in the 1890s his company began to bottle and market the Sazerac cocktail. In addition, the company operated the Sazerac Bar on Royal Street. Later, Handy’s former secretary, CJ O’Reilly, chartered the Sazerac Company. Ever since (except for a stint as a delicatessen and grocery vendor during Prohibition), the Sazerac Company has distilled an ever-increasing line of spirits. Today, the company remains a familyowned company and operates many of America's most famous distilleries: Buffalo Trace Distillery, A. Smith Bowman, Glenmore Distillery, Barton, Fleischmann, Medley and Mr Boston.

IWSC Report 2014

This year, plans for growth and experimentation have defined the company. Recently opened at the Buffalo Trace Distillery is Warehouse X, the new centre for Bourbon research. Constructed to allow the Kentucky distillery to experiment with the effect environment has on maturing whiskey, Warehouse X contains around US$1 million worth of technology. With the scope to measure the effect of light, air, temperature and humidity, Warehouse X has the ability to monitor liquid temperature, barrel weight, barrel temperature, and even air flow around the barrel. This is all in a year-long effort to see which factors contribute to the “perfect” whiskey. Sazerac has also recently revealed that it will be investing in increasing production at its Barton 1792 and The Glenmore Bourbon distilleries in Kentucky. At the Barton 1792 Distillery, production capacity will be increased with the implementation of new equipment.

Meanwhile, Sazerac will build a 223,000 square foot distribution centre at The Glenmore Distillery, while existing barrel warehouses will also be improved. Overall it is thought that 110 new jobs will be created as a result of the expansions across the three distilleries. “We are very proud we are able to continue to invest in Kentucky through its people and its infrastructure,” says Mark Brown, president and CEO of Sazerac. “By the time all of our projects are finished at our three facilities, we’ll have well over 1,200 employees in the state, and we’re excited about the possibility of growing even more.” Furthermore, Sazerac is focussing more on craft spirits brands in a bid to build a presence in the rapidly expanding category. Gemini Spirits & Wine, the distribution division of Sazerac, has created a craft spirits arm dedicated entirely to developing existing brands in the US. db

After almost 60 years service to the international wine and spirits industry, Dave Hughes is a worthy recipient of this special award from the IWSC TO DEDICATE your life to an industry for more than half a century is no mean feat, but to make such a profound impact on not just one field of expertise but two is truly worthy of recognition. Born in Zimbabwe in 1938, Dave Hughes initially embarked on a spirits industry career in 1956, when he took up an apprenticeship with African Distillers. However, his skillset and energy transferred seamlessly across to the world of wine and Dave’s presence can be found in the background of many important initiatives that have helped to push both industries forward. This has included active involvement with the IWSC since the competition was first established back in 1969, as well as South Africa’s historic Nederburg Auction, for which Dave has consulted since its inception in 1975. In 1979, he set up the Cape Wine Academy, which remains South Africa’s leading wine education body. Indeed, South Africa has been Dave’s adopted home ever since 1986, when he moved to the Cape to become operations manager at Stellenbosch Farmers Winery, now Distell. With such extensive experience under his belt, Dave is unsurprisingly in demand as a judge in various major wine and spirit competitions around the world. He has also found time to share this knowledge with a wider audience via a prolific number of books. These include

nine editions of the South African Wine Buyers Guide, Winelands of the Cape, A Dictionary of South African Wine and, since 1996, contributions to John Platter’s South African Wine Guide. In recognition of his contribution to the spirits industry, 2001 saw Dave invited to become the first ever non-UK resident to join the Worshipful Company of Distillers in its 500 year history. Then in 2003 he was appointed a Keeper of the Quaich by the Scotch whisky industry.

2001 saw Dave invited to become the first ever non-UK resident to join the Worshipful Company of Distillers in its 500 year history Hailing Dave as “the most celebrated figure in South African wine and spirits”, the IWSC paid tribute to an individual who remains at the forefront of the industry, “developing and leading many new events and initiatives annually.” There was also praise for his role as a mentor to those looking to build a career of their own in the drinks sector. As the

competition’s organisers noted, “He has personally guided countless IWSC judges through their professional and personal development to become major figures in the industry today.” It is this blend of experience and generosity, not to mention a “dry sense of humour”, “down to earth” approach and a willingness to “speak his own mind” that has earned Dave a place as one of the industry’s most admired figures. For all these reasons, the IWSC has chosen to pay its own rare tribute with this Lifetime Achievement Award. db

a d i f f e re n c e These prestigious awards recognise those who have made particularly significant contributions to the worlds of whisky and wine THE CHIVAS BROTHERS TROPHY FOR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN SCOTCH WHISKY GAVIN HEWITT CMG Gavin Hewitt finished his role as CEO of the Scotch Whisky Association in December 2013, but the results of his efforts and accomplishments on its behalf over more than a decade in the post will, in the words of whisky specialist Stephen Notman, “be felt for years to come”. Described as “a very deserved reward”, Hewitt’s IWSC award for Outstanding Achievement in Scotch Whisky highlights his contribution to the industry over a period of intense development as production expanded to meet massive increases in global demand. Prior to joining the SWA, Hewitt had forged a successful career in the UK diplomatic service with periods spent stationed in countries across Europe and at the United Nations. It might be argued this experience served him well, spearheading Scotch whisky’s drive into

European markets and dealing with politicians domestically, both north and south of the border, in order to push through the 2009 Scotch Whisky Regulations. Last year’s winner Stephen Sturgeon summed up Hewitt’s efforts as making: “A major contribution to the industry through a decade of significant change as we faced growing pressures on pricing, the opening of new markets and the protection of Scotch whisky’s unique provenance and heritage.” During his tenure Hewitt helped clarify and simplify whisky for the consumer through new marketing initiatives as well as implementing a more transparent labelling process and helping the industry to think more commercially. Hewitt was also proud of his work on a Scotch whisky environmental strategy, which remains one of the few industrywide initiatives in manufacturing that addresses sustainability and climate change across the sector. db

THE JULIAN BRIND MEMORIAL TROPHY FOR OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT IN THE WINE INDUSTRY DAWN DAVIES Chosen from a strong shortlist, the winner of this award is a former sommelier who has now run Selfridges’ wine and spirits category for the past six years. She is in charge of the entire wine and spirits selection across its four stores as well as online, with responsibility for over 2,000 lines and five restaurant lists. During her time at Selfridges, Davies has launched the new wine shop and Wonderbar, opened and run the Restaurant on the Roof with Pierre

Anne Jones, for the sponsor Waitrose, acknowledged her “total admiration” for Davies’ ability to “cover such important roles in both the on- and off-trade, with drive and dedication”, and her ability to “inspire so much progress at Selfridges without compromising quality, modernising the face of premium-end wine retail”. Jones also noted Davies’ tasting skills and predicted this year’s winner would continue to make impressions in the industry for years to come. Her courage and conviction were also highlighted by last year’s winner, Xavier Rousset MS: ”To have worked so hard and to have put in the long hours the industry demands is impressive, but to maintain that level of passion and enthusiasm on a daily basis is unique; she is a role model for the industry.” Davies’ day-to-day focus is on launching new products, organising consumer events, liaising with customers and press. Meanwhile her overall responsibilities range from working with her supply chain to monitoring stock levels, pricing, wastage and management of stock. Prior to taking on this role at Selfridges, Davies worked at the Ledbury in Notting Hill as restaurant manager during its first year, when the team gained a Michelin star within the first nine months. Before that, she honed her skills at another top London restaurant, The Square. db

The late Julian Brind MW was a leading light in the wine trade, and an integral part of the Waitrose wine team for over 40 years. We have created this award in association with the IWSC, where he was a longstanding judge, to honour his contribution and service to the trade that he loved. He was a trusted and committed mentor to many aspiring young wine professionals, as well as being a dedicated family man, full of energy both for his work and his leisure activities. Julian was always interested in quality and true wine value; he was also unswervingly enthusiastic about innovation and discovery. For example, as a supermarket buyer in 1973, he was involved right at the start of the New Zealand Sauvignon craze. Each year we award this prize to the man or woman who demonstrates they have the courage of their convictions, dedication to the industry and real passion for wine. The intended recipient will have established an early track record in their field, be seen to be “going places”, and will already be taking part in the wider aspects of the wine trade, showing commitment and determination in everything they do.

TO P O F the shops

A regular past winner of this award, Waitrose wowed the judges yet again with its progress this year, especially a new online offering WAITROSE HAS come a long way since it was founded in west London in 1904 by Wallace Waite, Arthur Rose and David Taylor. Taken over by the John Lewis partnership in 1937 when it had just 10 stores, the supermarket has since expanded to over 300 sites. Scooping the title of IWSC Retailer of the Year – and not for the first time either – Waitrose was praised for the quality of its range across both wines and spirits, which made it stand out from competitors. “The range is wide but not intimidating, with clear POS and educated staff. Importantly, it offers good value at all price points encouraging experimentation,” said one judge. Innovation has been at the forefront of the company’s 2014 agenda, with May seeing the launch of online wine website Waitrose Cellar. Featuring over 1,200 wines, the new site replaced its previous incarnation, Waitrose Wine Direct. Among its features, customers can mix their own case of six bottles from the retailer’s range of wines, spirits and Champagnes, with free delivery within three working days. As one judge remarked: “They’ve taken a leaf out of the independent retailers’ book, showcasing innovation with tastings and technology to the fore.” The website’s offer even extends to a “Fine & Rare” range, giving customers the chance to buy gems such as Château Yquem 2008 for £250 a bottle and Château Mouton Rothschild 2009 for £900 a bottle. Keeping up with the current trend for provenance and transparency in ingredient labelling, in August Waitrose put its first vegetarian mixed wine case

up for sale online, accompanied by a vegetarian recipe booklet and wine pairing guide. Known for the high calibre of its buying team, with over 300 in-house beer, wine and spirits specialists boasting WSET qualifications, last October Waitrose bolstered its Master of Wine quota with the addition of two new team members: Australia and Burgundy buyer Liam Steevenson MW and Xenia Irwin MW, buyer for multi-channel beers, wines & spirits for Waitrose Wines Direct. This took the retailer’s MW tally to five – more than any other UK supermarket. In store, “fine wine” is defined as “over £12 a bottle, with France currently accounting for seven of the company’s top 10 best-sellers over £12. “We have a big over-trade in France and the classic areas are growing very strongly,” reports wine buying manager Ken Mackay MW. Among the wines in the top 10 are Catena Malbec, Beronia Rioja Reserva, Domaine Louis Moreau Chablis and Esprit de Puisseguin St Emilion. With Waitrose leading the way for supermarket wine sales over £10 a bottle, its future looks not only secure, but bright. db

It’s been a whirlwind couple of years for Loki Wines, which has been making waves ever since it burst onto the Birmingham wine scene in 2012 IF YOU want to see a prime example of how the UK independent sector has evolved to address the issues that sent so many established high street retail groups tumbling into administration, then look no further than one of the newest additions to the scene. Founded in 2012, Loki Wine has already established itself as an important part of the Birmingham wine scene. Judges praised this business as offering a “complete package and doing everything an independent wine merchant can and should do.” They especially admired Loki as an “engaging, truly independent” business that presents customers “with an amazing breadth and depth of wines from all parts of the wine world.” The retailer’s passion shone through most of all in its extensive social

media activity, which the judges felt “is clearly part and parcel of what they do.” Founder Phil Innes has been grabbing the attention of the trade, not to mention a clutch of awards, for his understanding of what makes today’s wine consumer tick – experience gained through time at Oddbins and Winerack. Having realised what the modern wine drinker wants, Innes set about providing something to that effect, offering people an experience rather than just a traditional wine transaction. In practice, this means that Loki entices customers through the door with a combination of its Enomatic machines – nick-named Jancis, Robert and Oz – as well as a regular events schedule and a selection of food platters that give people an excuse to linger.

It’s all designed to create an atmosphere that is a world away from the traditional image of a wine merchant, making Loki particularly accessible to a new generation of wine drinkers. Innes firmly believes that the younger generation is looking to learn about wine, and can often be more open-minded to new styles than many older consumers. Through its corporate events, private tastings and on- and off-trade sales Loki is harnessing this current booming interest in wine with an enthusiasm that should herald a very bright future. db

As e-commerce becomes ever more important, the IWSC had no hesitation in presenting its first online retailer award to spirits specialist Master of Malt THE INTERNET has shaped our lives in so many ways that it is hardly surprising to see this phenomenon changing the way we buy or sell wine and spirits. In order to recognise those drinks retailers who have either built their entire business model around e-commerce or have incorporated the world wide web as an important channel, the IWSC chose 2014 to create this new award. In the inaugural winner, Master of Malt, the judges were unanimous with their eagerness to reward a company that has opened the mysterious world of whisky – not to mention a host of other drinks – to a new audience. “They’ve changed the landscape of how whisky and spirits are retailed,” observed one judge. “There’s always been an element of stuffiness to this category but they’ve taken it by the scruff of its neck and gone for the 20-45-year old market.”

IWSC Report 2014

Particularly popular were the “Drinks by the Dram” sample sets, which offer well-presented, affordable access to the world’s great whiskies. However, judges also loved other gift ideas such as the spirits-themed Advent Calendars, as well as the site’s interactive online chat function for those in search of advice. Master of Malt may offer a masterclass in how to recruit a whole new generation of spirit fans, but there’s plenty of appeal for connoisseurs too. At £999.95, its own label 60-year-old Speyside bottling (also available in a 3cl sample for £52.93) may appear pricey, but for those in the know this represents a significant bargain when compared to similarly mature expressions from big name brands. “They certainly know where to source casks from,” acknowledged one judge admiringly. In addition to the attractive, accessible presentation on its website and well-

curated range, the panel recognised Master of Malt’s impressive track record of creating its own products. “They look at a category and add a layer of innovation,” remarked one judge. “Look at Bathtub Gin – they’ve repackaged the Prohibition idea to bring history to life.” In short, for all the strong contenders and original ideas in evidence on this year’s shortlist, Master of Malt stood out from the crowd as a business that is really making the most of the opportunities offered by the online medium. db

In a world full of wine and spirit competitions, these representatives from all corners of the industry explain what makes the IWSC stand out from the crowd

IVAN DIXON, WINE & SPIRIT BUYER, HARVEY NICHOLS

MADELINE PUCKETTE, IWSC BLOGGER OF THE YEAR 2013

“The IWSC is a competition at the top of its league with regard to wine and spirits judging. Impeccably organised, proficient and professional at all times, the IWSC offers entrants the opportunity to be tasted against some of the best products in the world by a contingent of some of the most experienced tasters. An award from the competition is always to be taken seriously as a clear indication of quality and presence in the contemporary marketplace. As competitions go, this is certainly one of the best.“

“When it comes to building a brand, having credibility is really important. Why? Well, it gives your best customers validation that they’re not the only ones who think you’re special. After putting the IWSC award credit on the front page of our site we noticed Wine Folly followers began spreading our story more through word of mouth. I haven’t been able to get control of my email inbox ever since.”

NEIL RIDLEY, BLOGGER, CASKSTRENGTH.BLOGSPOT.CO.UK “In our experience of judging spirits in numerous global competitions the IWSC team is leagues ahead of the pack. The competition is meticulously organised and, as a result, is now rightly recognised as the most highly regarded drinks awards in the world.”

‘An award from the competition is always to be taken seriously as a clear indication of quality and presence in the contemporary marketplace’

ANGELA MOUNT, HEAD OF BUYING & MARKETING, YOUR FAVOURITE WINES.COM “The IWSC is a highly respected international wine and spirit competition due to the meticulous structure of the judging process and how the wines are analysed. This makes any medal winnings highly deserved.”

BODEGAS BARÓN DE LEY “At Barón de Ley we call the IWSC simply ‘The Competition’, as we believe it’s the most consistant and comprehensive wine competition in the world. We started entering our wines in the competition more than ten years ago and the yearly release of the results has become a classic day, where we can get a unique and objective assessment about the direction we’re heading as a company. On top of that, the medals and trophies won in the competition have become a great tool to communicate the excellence of our products and in this respect it has played quite a role in building our reputation over the last few years.” db

This has taken them across the globe in their hunt for innovative, top quality, great value wines. While championing examples made from lesser-known grape varieties and regions, M&S also continues to build its range of wines from classic Old and New World countries. Complementing this offer is the constantly evolving M&S fine wine range, much of which is sourced in small parcels that change every six months. IWSC judges praised the supermarket

SPIRITS BUYING TEAM OF THE YEAR: WAITROSE Having last triumphed in the spirits buying team award back in 2012, Waitrose has returned to take this crown for a second time. Spirits buyer Herchelle Perrez-Terrado has been with the supermarket since 2010 and, alongside its beer and spirits buying manager Norman Freeman, has created a broad range featuring everything from artisan vodkas and gins to single malt whiskies. Terrado has almost a decade of experience in the buying industry working for some on the UK’s most respected British retailers, and regularly lends her expertise as a judge in competitions. The wine and spirits buying team has been headed up by Pierpaolo Petrassi since 2010, a man who has spent his entire career in the drinks industry. Waitrose’s focus on spirits is based on the belief that this category forms a “key part of entertaining and celebration, and leads the way for activity around key calendar events.” As such, its range is intended to give customers the confidence to entertain at home. The team’s passion for spirits shines through in its desire to

encourage exploration in areas such as Tequila and world whiskies. Most recently, this saw a focus on Bourbon, the subject of a Christmas marketing campaign and three-part series on WaitroseTV with drinks presenter Olly

Each year the IWSC and Waitrose pick out top performers from the WSET Diploma programme and award one of them a unique insight into the trade RICHARD MOORHOUSE Summing up the factors that attracted him to wine, Richard observes: ”There is no better thing in the world that brings together so many different disciplines – history, geography, geology, chemistry, meteorology and economics to name a few – with such an enjoyable way to spend time. Combine that with the opportunity to travel the world, meeting people who are so dedicated, passionate and keen to share what they create, then you have a truly extraordinary thing.” Inspired to study wine alongside his finance career, Richard has developed a particular fascination for the Loire and Piedmont. “I am very thankful for the insight, breadth and rigour that the Trust’s courses have given me over the years,” he remarks. “And I look forward to my next challenge in the wine world.”

ANYA RYZHENKOVA Originally from Ukraine, Anya may have initially used her LSE degree in international relations and media for a career ranging across rather different industries but, she recalls, “since my first visit to the Crimean wineries in my teenage years, I have always been fascinated by wine.” In 2011 she embarked on a radical career shift, completing her WSET Level 3 and embarking on a wine-focused trip to Latin America. Upon her return to the UK she joined the Antique Wine Company and began her Diploma studies. Further visits to wine regions have included a harvest at the Kolonist Winery in her native Ukraine. She has no regrets about the direction her life has taken, saying: “Looking back, I am happy I have made a decision to step on this road and I am looking forward to the journey ahead.”

LITS PHILIPPOU Half Greek-Cypriot, half English, raised in London and with a 20-year background in the restaurant industry, Lits was originally attracted to wine by his wider passion for gastronomy. Eventually its allure led to a career – and lifestyle – shift that has seen Lits spend the last 12 years based between London and the Languedoc as he works across wine education, promotion and oenotourism. His objective is simple, he explains: “My wish is to share my discoveries and infect people with a similar enthusiasm to explore more the wonders of the world of wine.”

Having enhanced his knowledge while working as a delivery boy for local business Wine in Cornwall, he then embarked on a degree in Botany, “not knowing at the time how useful it would prove for my future WSET Diploma studies.” Although wine does not form a daily part of his role as head of training at an events staffing firm, part of his remit is to make sure that hundreds of people each year receive a basic grounding in wine knowledge and service. db

quality of the “breed”. The IWSC is all about recognising quality, eliminating wine faults and embracing new wine styles, all while celebrating excellence across the global industry. Wine shows are incredibly important to the consumer, as they instil confidence in the wine’s quality. As the IWSC is one of the best-judged wine shows in the world, any wine with an IWSC medal is greeted very favourably by the consumer. On my travels around the globe, I will be encouraging more wine companies to become involved in shows such as the IWSC to ensure we are always raising the bar as an industry. As someone who has enjoyed a lot of success in wine competitions, especially the IWSC, how valuable has this been to your business?

AU S S I E acumen As three-time IWSC Winemaker of the Year, who better than Australian Vintage CEO Neil McGuigan to step into the role of President for 2015 What does it mean to you to take on the role of IWSC President? Firstly, it’s a great honour for Australia. It’s a great honour for the McGuigan brand and of course, for me personally. There have only been three other Australians before me to hold this position: Dr Max Lake, Chris Hancock and finally, Wolf Blass. It’s a very prestigious role, one which I am humbled to fulfil – I will be an

ambassador for wine globally as well as for the IWSC – arguably the world’s most prestigious wine show. That’s quite an honour for a guy from the Hunter Valley. How do you believe you can use your industry experience to support and strengthen the IWSC? There are a number of countries around the world that have not embraced wine shows. Wine shows are about lifting the

Winning at the IWSC has been crucial for our business; performing well in wine shows, and having awarded wines on the shelves for consumers is very important. Wine show awards give consumers confidence and continued wine show success enhances your company’s credibility and reputation to the retailer, supermarket and restaurant gatekeepers. There’s a well-established competition circuit in Australia – how influential is this on the country’s wine styles? And are domestic trends in tune with international consumer preferences? Excellence is always awarded in both domestic and international wine shows. However, international wine shows and judges are looking for the more classic styles. With white wine, we generally see the highly awarded wines having slightly more generosity of fruit weight, and with red wines, savoury characters on the palate rather than just fruit bombs. So yes, the styles that are awarded internationally are normally different to those that get the big awards at the domestic level. The international wine shows influence our styles more than the domestic shows; this is because we are a global producer and we see that the judges at the IWSC are in step with the global consumer.

Neil McGuigan rose to fame in 1985 when restaurateur and wine merchant Johnny Walker referred to him as “the most brilliant young winemaker of his time”. He has lived up to these expectations by leading the McGuigan Wines team to the prestigious title of IWSC Winemaker of the Year in 2009, 2011 and 2012 – the first winemaker in the competition’s 45-year history to win this award three times. Neil McGuigan is one of Australia’s foremost winemakers and brings over 30 years experience in the wine industry to Australian Vintage and McGuigan Wines. Growing up in a family of winemakers in the Hunter Valley naturally led Neil to pursue a career in winemaking and viticulture. After graduating with a degree in oenology in South Australia, he joined brother Brian as a winemaker at Wyndham Estate, where he established his career, eventually moving into the role of group production director. From there he worked with Brian and his other brother Ross to establish the McGuigan Brothers label before moving on to become a part-owner and winemaker for Briar Ridge Vineyard, building one of the most sought-after vineyards in the Hunter Valley. His next challenge took him to Rothbury Estate in the role of general manager & chief winemaker for four years before he rejoined Brian at McGuigan Simeon Wines (now Australian Vintage) as general manager of production & wine supply in 2004. Neil was appointed CEO of Australian Vintage in 2010. As an acclaimed winemaker with extensive industry experience, Neil is a respected wine judge at national and international levels. Renowned as an innovator in the field of Australian wine, his continuous ingenuity and commitment to quality drives the continued success of the McGuigan wine brand.

What sort of developments can we expect to see next from Australian Vintage? We’re always doing exciting things at McGuigan; we are releasing some new varieties and wine styles next year. While I’m not going to go into the specifics, I am very positive about the continued increase in quality and innovation that our company is driving. We are

continuing to plant new and exciting varieties in our vineyards; in fact, we are embarking on a program of an internal and external vineyard review to ensure we maximise quality aspirations at all of our vineyard sites. This programme will take probably three to five years, but we are committed as a company to continually increase the quality and innovation bar for the Australian wine industry. db

The IWSC draws on the expertise and local contacts of a worldwide group of agents, who here report on their activities during the last year COLIN HARKNESS SPAIN I’m continually promoting the IWSC in my articles and in my correspondence with bodegas here in Spain. Regarding Spanish successes of the IWSC 2014 I was delighted to see an increased entry this year. I was also delighted to see six Gold Outstanding Awards given to Spanish wines. Rioja had two, Jerez had three and, I guess for the first time ever, a sparkling wine that is not Cava also won this prestigious award. I’ve been to visit the Consejo Regulador DO Cava recently and I’m convinced that they will be up there with the Golds and Outstandings in the coming years.

MICHÈLE SHAH ITALY Italy’s entries for 2014 were up by 7.5% on last year. Great effort was made this year to bring IWSC awareness to some of the lesser known regions of Italy, a strategy that will continue in 2015. Italy has a new sponsorship for Best Italian Producer, which comes from the Consorzio Vini del Trentino, in the northeast of Italy. Thanks to this sponsorship the aim is to increase awareness for this appellation in international markets.

IWSC Report 2014

JO BURZYNSKA NEW ZEALAND It was a strong year for New Zealand at the IWSC. There were a record number of entries from the country and its consistently good results were supported by a number of promotional initiatives within the domestic market. Before entries closed, the IWSC hosted a special tasting in Hawke’s Bay of a selection of wines from around the world that had won top awards in previous years. This was well received and attended by representatives from the region’s wineries. Following the release of 2014’s results, the winners were celebrated in a series of retailer events. My appointment as editor of the IWSC’s official New Zealand media partner, WineNZ, further strengthened ties between the two groups.

ARTHUR NAEGELE CENTRAL EUROPE (SPIRITS) I am very excited about this year’s results from my area! We had a record number of entries from Austria, including fruit spirits and whiskies. I have been visiting several important spirits events including Whiskyschiff Zurich, Whiskyfair Graz and Finest Spirits festival in Munich to get in touch with

producers and make them aware of IWSC. Top distilleries from Austria, Liechtenstein and Switzerland have joined the competition – and I just want to mention Destillerie Hiebl, who entered 13 products and got 13 medals, including some Gold Outstanding. This proves that Austrian distillers are not only top producers for fruit spirits, but also for whisky and gin. Also the Gin Trophy winner comes from my area.

MATIAS CHIESA SOUTH AMERICA It was a difficult year for the South American region, especially for Argentina. The economical and political situation has had a direct effect on marketing budgets but even so the number of entries has increased. We made three informative seminars to get wineries aware of what IWSC was, is and will be. We also had an IWSC president from South America, and we knew we needed to make the most of her image and help. Laura Catena was very committed to the task of communication. With lot of work and the very useful help of new sales manager Eduardo Flores we have reached our objectives. This gradual growth is building very solid structures and will be very useful in the near future when the economic situation gets better allowing Argentina and Chile to show all their potential. db

l e a d e rs Meet the wineries and distilleries who have outshone their compatriots to secure a place among this year’s National Producer of the Year winners ARGENTINE WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY, SUPPORTED BY WINES OF ARGENTINA: MASCOTA VINEYARDS Founded in 1891 by Italian immigrant and Argentine wine pioneer Luis Tirasso, Mascota Vineyards’ wines first went on sale in the international market in 1980, and the company has since expanded exports to over 50 countries. Mascota Vineyards boasts top vineyard sites in Luján de Cuyo, where snow melt removes the need for irrigation, while altitude restricts yields, increases exposure and brings cool evening temperatures. Winemaking is presided over by Rodolfo Sadler, affectionately known as “Opi”, who has been custodian of the estate since 1985. Seeking the ultimate expression from the grapes and vineyard sites he works with is his Homage range: a Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Shiraz, Bonarda and Pinot Noir. The estate’s other collections include a Reserve and organic range, while the Two Vineyards collection shows off the best grapes grown at the estate’s Mendoza and San Juan vineyard sites.

AUSTRALIAN WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY, SPONSORED BY HELLMAN BEVERAGE LOGISTICS: PENFOLDS The jewel in Australia’s wine crown, Penfolds was established in 1844 just eight years after the foundation of South Australia and has since played a pivotal role in the country’s winemaking evolution. Its top drop, Grange, an Australian heritage-listed wine, has been made since 1951 and, now under the watchful eye of chief winemaker Peter Gago, recently launched its 2010 vintage. The estate’s single vineyard and single block wines, which include Magill Estate Shiraz and Kalimna Block 42 Cabernet Sauvignon, are celebrated for their idiosyncratic terroir and sense of place. Penfolds also makes an array of sub-regional wines to show off Australia’s different terroirs. Earlier this year, the brand released 330 bottles of a 50-year-old rare tawny, followed in May by a limited edition run of 2010 Bin 170 Kalimna Shiraz to mark its 170th year.

CANADIAN WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

CHAMPAGNE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

INNISKILLIN Inniskillin Wines was established in Niagara on the lake in 1975 by Donald Ziraldo and Karl Kaiser, with the philosophy of producing premium wines from premium grapes grown in the Niagara Peninsula, branching out into the Okanagen in 1994. Its name is derived from the early history of the original winery site named after the Irish regiment of Colonel Cooper who served in Niagara in the early 1800s. Winemaker Bruce Nicholson arrived at the estate in 2007 to continue Inniskillin’s high standards and award-winning presence in both dry wines and ice wines. The main varieties used for Inniskillin’s dry wines include Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Cabernet Franc and Pinot Noir, while its ice wines, including two sparklers, are made from Vidal, Riesling and Cabernet Franc and sold in over 80 countries. In the winter of 1984, Inniskillin started producing ice wine in the traditional method by harvesting grapes frozen naturally on the vine. This is extreme winemaking, made possible by severe Canadian winters. Inniskillin ice wine continues to capture the world’s attention as a rare, intense and concentrated wine, taking centre stage at international wine competitions. Driven to work as sustainably as possible, Nicholson turns pomace from his pressings into bio-energy in conjunction with a local greenhouse. The estate is a mere 20-minute drive from Niagara Falls, and is set among the vineyards below the escarpment next to the mighty Niagara river. It receives over 250,000 visitors a year, and offers tours, tastings and culinary events. Inniskillin revamped its packaging in the 2012 vintage to reflect the brand’s historic roots and ultra-premium positioning in the market.

CHAMPAGNE P&C HEIDSIECK Piper-Heidsieck started life as a cloth and wine trading company called Heidsieck & Co in 1785. Founded by Reims-based draper Florens-Louis Heidsieck, who was keen to make “a cuvée worthy of a queen”, the house quickly gained a reputation for its distinctive Champagne, which won favour at the French court. Following his death in 1828, Heidsieck’s nephew Christian joined forces with entrepreneur Henri-Guillaume Piper to continue the business, with the fizz becoming the official Champagne of 14 royal and imperial courts. François d’Aulan took over the business in 1957 and presided over the house for 33 years, focusing on the development of the company and the preservation of the family heritage. In 1988 he passed the baton to the Hériard Dubreuil family, who consolidated the international development of the maison, which is now owned by EPI and managed by Cecile Bonnefond, with cellar master Régis Camus having been at the helm since 1994. The house owns vineyard land from the Montagne de Reims to the Côte des Bar. Known for its full-bodied nature, Piper focuses on Pinot Noir in its brut non-vintage, traditionally using around 60% in the blend, along with Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier from Grande and Petite Montagne de Reims. The Piper range includes a brut non-vintage, brut vintage, Rosé Sauvage, Cuvée Sublime and prestige cuvée Rare. The house has been the official pour at the Cannes Film Festival since 1993 and this year released a limited edition magnum dressed in a tuxedo to mark the 67th year of the famous film festival.

CHILEAN WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY, SPONSORED BY HELLMAN BEVERAGE LOGISTICS: VIÑA CASAS DEL BOSQUE Casas del Bosque was founded in the coolest, westernmost reaches of the Casablanca Valley in 1993 by the Cuneo family. Still family owned, today the winery possesses a single 235ha vineyard dedicated exclusively to the production of cool climate varieties: Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Riesling, Pinot Noir and Syrah, while Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere grapes are sourced from carefully managed vineyards in the warmer regions of Maipo, Colchagua and Cachapoal. The winemaking team, which has been led since 2009 by Kiwi winemaker Grant Phelps, currently produces 100,000 cases of wine a year with a clear focus on the grapes that come from its own vineyards. Setting Casas del Bosque apart are its volcanic hillside soils composed of shallow red clay over decomposed granite formed 110 million years ago under the Pacific Ocean, which imbues the wines with a briny, sea-salt character. Another aspect that makes Casas del Bosque unique is the fact that all white wines are nightharvested to take advantage of naturally low temperatures of between 3 and 8°C, followed by an extended period of skin contact before pressing. Casas del Bosque is one of the most visited wineries in the Casablanca Valley and its restaurant, Tanino, continues to win international accolades. Keen to tap into the current global thirst for fizz, the estate recently released a traditional method sparkling wine, which it trialled at Tanino restaurant. “It’s a learning curve at the moment – we’re still finding our feet. Sparkling wine requires commitment and serious investment, but it should be worth it in the long run,” reports director Christian Blanco.

ENGLISH WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY: NYETIMBER The Nyetimber estate is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086 and was once home to Anne of Cleves, fourth wife of Henry VIII. Nearly 1,000 years later it produces one of the most revered sparkling wines in England. Bought by Stuart and Sandy Moss in 1986, who were convinced that the undulating south-facing slopes with well-drained soils would be ideal for production of high quality grapes for making sparkling wines, the pair planted 20 hectares of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, and produced their first vintage, a blanc de blancs, in 1992. A year later they made their first Classic Cuvée, a Chardonnay/Pinot Noir blend. Now owned by Dutch entrepreneur Eric Heerema, Nyetimber’s sparklers have won rave reviews and international medals aplenty. Spanning 153ha in West Sussex and Hampshire, Nyetimber doesn’t buy in a single grape. Devoted entirely to Chardonnay, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir, in 2012 winemaker Cherie Spriggs made the controversial decision of not making any wine due to the grapes not being up to her quality standards following a tricky growing season. Last August, the estate made history by releasing a single vineyard Pinot Noir/Chardonnay priced at £75 a bottle. Named Tillington Single Vineyard 2009, the grapes hail from the estate’s 37.3ha Netherland vineyard. Just 2,900 individually numbered bottles were produced. “The Pinot Noir grapes from the Netherland vineyard stood out as being absolutely glorious. The fruit was so good that I wanted to do something with it in isolation as a real expression of place,” says Spriggs, adding, “We’re incredibly proud of the wine, which we see as a true reflection of a single expression of a single terroir. We wanted to do something in the clos model that really gives an expression of a place, and I think we’ve achieved that.” This year, the estate became the first in England to include bottling, riddling and disgorgement dates on its back labels.

FRENCH WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY, SPONSORED BY VINIMPO: DOMAINE LAROCHE Following on from the success of Domaine de la Motte in this category last year, Chablis has once again taken the French trophy, this time through the efforts of Domaine Laroche, a member of last year’s IWSC shortlist. Founded in 1850, Domaine Laroche epitomises Chablis and its wines carry the appellation’s trademark minerality. Unusually for Chablis, Laroche owns 90 hectares of vines, including 21 hectares of premier crus and six hectares of grand crus and, in addition to its own vineyards, the domaine maintains purchasing partnerships with some 40 smaller growers. The Laroche Petit Chablis and Laroche Chablis are made from these partnerships, while the Domaine Laroche wines are drawn exclusively from its own holdings. In 2009, Michel Laroche, the driving force since he took over the domaine in 1967, merged the company with another familyowned producer, Jeanjean, yet he remained actively involved in the company until his retirement, along with his wife Gwénaël, who is still the Laroche ambassador. The approach to production is meticulous under the stewardship of recently-appointed vineyard manager Gilles Magnin and winemaker Grégory Viennois, who oversees production for the entire Laroche group. Viennois has an holistic approach to his winemaking and insists that no great wines are possible without high quality grapes and no great fruit without a comprehensive view of the vineyard. He pays much attention to the consistency between grape growing and winemaking and ensures the winemaking techniques at Laroche are adapted to each single variety and each single plot.

GERMAN WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY: WEINGUT HORST SAUER Many talk of the young meeting the old and the interplay of past and present in wine – but father and daughter team of Horst and Sandra Sauer put it into practice. Making decisions together the Sauers have gradually moved towards “dry, feminine and elegant wines” with importance given to tradition but also to the future, and it was this approach that led Sandra to Australia after studying viticulture and oenology in Germany’s Geisenheim University. The family has owned vineyards for four generations, but it was Horst who started winemaking in 1977 and now the Weingut Sauer estate in Franconia’s Eschendorf covers over 15 hectares, nestled between the hills and the river by the renowned Eschendorfer Lump. Grape varieties grown include Silvaner, Müller-Thurgau, Riesling, Weissburgunder (Pinot Blanc), Bacchus, Scheurebe, Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) and Domina. Covering classifications Kabinett, Spätlese and Grosses Gewächs to provide a clear distinction in taste, the Sauer’s Kabinett wines are the svelte and fresh companions; Spätlesen, richer and more concentrated; and the Grosse Gewächse intended to age and develop gracefully over time. The Sauers produce around 220,000 bottles a year, exporting 20% of their wines. They also operate a distillery as well as tastings and wine events.

ITALIAN WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY, SPONSORED BY VINI DEL TRENTINO: AZIENDA AGRICOLA ANDREOLA DI STEFANO POLA The family owned operation of Azienda Agricola Andreola was founded in 1984 by Nazareno Pola and today his son, Stefano Pola, continues to manage the company with the same philosophy as his father by combining old methods with modern techniques and as a keen student of the different climates and sub-regions within his region. Andreola is located in Col San Martino, a small town situated on the green hills of Treviso in the Venetian hills where its 28 hectares of vineyards are made up almost exclusively of Glera with a small amount of other native grapes including Verdiso, Perer and Bianchetta. Col San Martino is the production heart of the Prosecco style and all the grapes processed by Andreola to go towards its eight DOCG and six DOC wines come from its own vineyards. Valdobbiadene is the key word for Andreola’s production and philosophy: it indicates the continuous research and improvement undertaken by the company – in both technological innovation and knowledge of vines and the product – to ensure that the wines from the estate express the typical features of the territory in which they reside. In 2010 Andreola was the first Prosecco producer to join CERVIM, the Centre for Research, Environmental Sustainability and Advancement of Mountain Viticulture, and it also supports the promotion of mountain culture.

NEW ZEALAND WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY: YEALANDS ESTATE WINES Located in the southern Awatere Valley sub-region of Marlborough, Yealands Estate is one of the most ambitious family owned vineyard enterprises in New Zealand. Owner and founder Peter Yealands began creating terraced vineyards among the Awatere foothills in the late ‘90s, eventually realising Yealands’ Seaview Vineyard. Launched in 2008, Yealands Estate has become one of the world’s few carbon neutral wineries and was one of the first in Marlborough to introduce Grüner Veltliner and Viognier. Well known for his innovative approach to new projects, Yealands has openly stated that he intends his winery to be the most sustainable in the world and is working towards his goal with the assistance of winemaker Tamra Kelly-Washington and vineyard manager Gareth Goodsir among others. Given that it’s likely consumer concerns over environmental credentials will shape future buying patterns, the Yealands attitude to sustainability should help the estate build on its already strong presence in over 80 markets worldwide. The Yealands Estate Land Made Series is sourced from some of New Zealand’s leading regions from selected parcels, some of which are then combined to make wines reflective of their origin. Of New Zealand’s total haul this year of 392 IWSC medals, Yealands was the top performer with 37 overall and a gold medal for the Yealands Estate Winemaker’s Reserve Central Otago Pinot Noir 2013, only the second vintage of the wine produced. A standout in the competition, the limited release Pinot Noir marks a new chapter for Yealands Family Wines, previously best known for its aromatic white styles.

PORTUGUESE WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

SHERRY PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

BLANDY’S Blandy’s has been synonymous with Madeira for over 200 years and the Blandys are unique in being the only family of all the original founders of the Madeira wine trade to still own and manage their own wine company. The family has played a role in the development of Madeira wine throughout its long history and members of the family continue to live on Madeira, maintaining a tradition that goes back to 1811. Current owners Michael and Chris Blandy are the 6th and 7th generations to work in the business. The family recently acted to safeguard its future by purchasing its own vineyards, thereby ensuring it is able to meet demands through the current period of change, with fears that the next generations won’t choose to remain on the island. The three sites are located at different points on Madiera. The first is a 1.5 hectare plot in Funchal called Quinta do Santa Luzia, which was owned by one of Blandy’s cousins and has now been taken fully under the company’s control. Blandy describes it as particularly good for white grapes and hopes that it will become a top Terrantez site. The second site, to the north of the island, is called Quinta do Furão, covers 2ha and is predominantly planted with Sercial and Verdelho. Finally, the largest site at 4.5ha is Quinta do Bispo. Owned first by the King of Portugal and then the church, the land was last planted with vines 20-30 years ago. Blandy confirmed that planting had already begun and the make-up would be 50% Malvasia, 25% Sercial and 25% Verdelho.

EMILIO LUSTAU Founded in 1896 by Don José RuizBerdejo, Sherry producer Emilio Lustau has carved a niche for itself via a range of “almacenista” Sherries made by small, family-owned bodegas and sold under the Lustau brand name. Lustau itself started life as an almacenista (storekeeper), with Ruiz-Berdejo selling the fortified wines he made from grapes grown at his estate, Finca Nuestra Señora de la Esperanza, to larger Sherry houses. After his death in 1930, Ruiz-Berdejo’s Granada-born son-in-law, Don Emilio Lustau Ortega, took the helm at the family business and began exporting the wines outside Spain. In addition, he launched the Solera Reserva range made from old stocks acquired from various almacenistas, creating the Almacenista range in 1981. In 1990, the company was sold to Luis Cabellero, producer of Ponce Caballero liqueur, allowing the company to further expand its global reach. Today, Lustau owns a number of Domecq brands, including La Ina, Botania and Viña 25. Last year, Lustau got in on a slice of the en rama action with its own unfiltered release. Just one cask of each of its three en rama offerings was released. Drawing on Lustau’s land in each of the three towns within DO Jerez, the producer’s en rama selection includes a Manzanilla from Sanlúcar de Barrameda, a fino from El Puerto de Santa Maria and a second fino from Jerez. “We knew others had done this, so we wanted to be different. We’ve achieved this by offering three different locations,” says export director Ignacio López de Carrizosa.

SOUTH AFRICAN WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY, SUPPORTED BY DAVE HUGHES: JORDAN FAMILY WINES Gary and Kathy Jordan have been making wines since 1993 on their farm in Stellenbosch, which has a history dating back some 300 years. The Jordan philosophy is simple: success begins in the vineyards. Exceptional wines are made possible by careful management of the farm’s extensive natural assets through innovative canopy management and selecting varieties and clones specifically suited to the various soils and slopes. The Jordan vineyards face north, south, east, and west, lying at differing altitudes from 160 to 410m above sea level. With their close proximity to both the Indian and Atlantic Oceans, the vineyards benefit from coastal fog and cool breezes, while a mild Mediterranean climate with a maritime influence minimises the risk of frost damage. Its cellar is described as “pure Jordan”, featuring an “elegant, yet bold fusion of Old and New World architectural ideas”. The state-of-the-art cellar is designed around a gravity flow system using natural cooling by building the cellar into the slope of the mountain. Stainless steel fermentation tanks, varying in capacity, enable fruit from individual vineyards to be vinified separately. Tanks are jacketed with cooling bands to ensure controlled fermentation and storage temperatures. The barrel-fermented white wines are made according to classic Burgundian methods with fermentation taking place in the coolest part of the underground cellar. Separate barrel cellars are designated for Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Shiraz, where the wines mature and undergo malolactic fermentation. To ensure the highest level of quality, all wine is bottled and labelled on site, thus completing the circle from vineyards to wine.

SPANISH WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY: BODEGAS RAMÓN BILBAO Located in the heart of the Rioja Alta in Haro, Bodegas Ramón Bilbao has been in business since 1924 when Ramón Bilbao Murga first founded it. An experienced wine trader and grape grower with a particular fascination with in the art of ageing, Murga passed the winery down through the generations until 1966 when the last of his descendants died. In 1972 the business was converted into a corporation with new shareholders with new facilities built along with a statement of intent to produce aged wines. Then, in 1999, the family-run Diego Zamora, one of the largest beverage groups in Spain, acquired the winery and began renovating its facilities. Today the winery boasts 75 hectares of vineyards that stretch across Rioja. Earlier this year the winery added its first rosé to its portfolio, which is made with 100% Garnacha from old vineyards in Tudelilla. Ramón Bilbao Rosado was produced with the intention of appealing to the current trend in international markets for paler Provence-style rosé wines. It joins Ramón Bilbao’s broad range that pays homage to the classics of Rioja with the crianza, reserva and gran reserva, as well as modern Rioja through its Limited Edition, High Altitude Vineyards and Mirto ranges.

US WINE PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

INTERNATIONAL SPIRITS PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA Located in California’s Sonoma County in the Alexander Valley, the Francis Ford Coppola Winery reopened in July 2010 following extensive renovations as part of a much wider lifestyle brand set up by film director Francis Ford Coppola, which encompasses his films, resorts, cafés and a literary magazine. The winery produces nine different wine brands ranging from classic varieties and sparkling wines to its Burgundian-style Votre Santé range, while its Su Yuen range features wines specifically produced to pair with spicy Thai and Asian cuisine. For its Francis Coppola Reserve range, director of winemaking Corey Beck handpicks exceptional lots of fruit to craft smallbatch wines exclusively for winery guests, its members and those who shop with the winery online. Earlier this year Francis Ford Coppola launched a lower alcohol wine range called Gia after his granddaughter, Gia Coppola, who was instrumental in crafting the look and taste of the new wines. Comprising a frizzante Chardonnay, a Pinot Grigio and a Pinot Noir, the “Gia by Gia Coppola” wines have been created by Gia with Francis and the winemaking team to reflect her preferred wine style. Coppola’s ties with the film industry can be felt throughout the winery; much of it designed by film production designer Dean Tavoularis, who first met Coppola on the set of The Godfather. Inspired by the Tivoli Gardens of Copenhagen, the winery boasts swimming pools, bocce courts, two restaurants and is home to movie memorabilia including Vito Corleone’s desk from The Godfather and a restored 1948 Tucker Sedan used in Tucker: The Man and His Dream. Coppola has said the intention was to create a “wine wonderland, a park of pleasure where people of all ages can enjoy all the best things in life – food, wine, music, dancing, games, swimming and performances of all types.

WILLIAM GRANT & SONS William Grant & Sons is an independent family-owned distiller headquartered in the United Kingdom and founded by William Grant in 1886. Today, the luxury spirits company is run by the fifth generation of his family and distils some of the world’s leading brands of Scotch whisky, including the world’s biggest selling single malt Glenfiddich, The Balvenie range of handcrafted single malts and the world’s third largest blended Scotch, Grant’s. The company also boasts a strong portfolio of other category brands including the ever-alternative Hendrick’s gin, Sailor Jerry spiced rum, Reyka vodka and Tullamore Dew Irish whiskey. Most recently, William Grant & Sons acquired the Drambuie Liqueur Company, which owns the famous Drambuie whisky liqueur brand. A blend of aged Scotch whisky, spices and heather honey, Drambuie has a history dating back to 1745 and rose to prominence as the key ingredient of the Rusty Nail cocktail – favoured by the Rat Pack in the 1950s. At the time of the deal, Drambuie’s CEO, Michael Kennedy suggested that the brand was set to benefit from being part of a “larger more diverse” organisation which would help Drambuie to “truly achieve its potential”. The acquisition came just days after William Grant & Sons announced a record annual turnover of £1.12 billion, growing by 5.2%, and an operating profit totalling £138 million – a 10.6% rise on last year.

EUROPEAN SPIRITS PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

CHIVAS BROTHERS Chivas Brothers is the Scotch whisky and premium gin business of Pernod Ricard, the world’s second biggest wine and spirits group. Chivas Brothers’ enviable portfolio features some of the world’s most revered Scotch whisky brands including luxury blended whisky Chivas Regal – which has proved a particular favourite in China – Ballantine’s, which has carved out an especially strong place in Europe; The Glenlivet, the world’s second biggest single malt whisky; and Royal Salute, the world’s only exclusively prestige Scotch whisky range. Recent years have seen The Glenlivet emerge as a particular star of the Chivas portfolio and a key target for fresh product innovation. This year alone has seen the arrival of a 50-year-old expression and a more accessible style called Founder’s Reserve. Hailing “double digit growth in more than 40 markets last year” and 8% global value growth in the 2014 financial year, Chivas Brothers CEO Laurent Lacassagne, claimed: “The Glenlivet has contributed more growth to single malt whisky than any other brand.” The Chivas Brothers portfolio also includes two of the world’s leading English gins – Beefeater and Plymouth gin – plus a selection of smaller scale single malt whiskies, including Aberlour, Longmorn, Scapa, Strathisla and Tormore. The Chivas range is completed by an extensive collection of blended Scotch whiskies – 100 Pipers, Clan Campbell, Something Special and Passport Scotch – which focus sales in many of the world’s key whisky markets.

IRISH DISTILLERS Irish Distillers was formed in 1966, when a merger took place between Irish whiskey distillers John Power & Son, John Jameson & Son and the Cork Distillery Company. In an attempt to reverse the decline in Irish whiskey sales, the newly formed company decided to consolidate production at a purpose-built facility alongside the existing distillery in Midleton, County Cork. Irish Distillers was bought by Pernod Ricard in June 1988 and today Jameson is the No.1 Irish whiskey in the world, selling over four million 9-litre cases worldwide and contributing more than any other Irish whiskey brand to the phenomenal global growth of the category. Aside from its Jameson flagship, Irish Distillers’ portfolio of whiskeys is comprised of domestic star Paddy and the robust super-premium brand Powers. Then come a prized collection of brands that comprise Irish Distillers’ Prestige Collection: the single pot still whiskeys of Midleton, which includes the Spot range (Green Spot, Yellow Spot) and Redbreast. Finally at the very pinnacle of the Prestige Collection comes Midleton Very Rare. Released annually in just 50-cask editions, this highly collectible style is triple-distilled and aged between 12 and 25 years in carefully selected Bourbon or Sherry casks.

AFRICAN SPIRITS PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

AMERICAS & CARIBBEAN SPIRITS PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY:

DISTELL The modern Distell was formed from a merger in 2000 between the Stellenbosch Farmers’ Winery, and the Distillers Corporation, which boasts a history going back to 1945. The brainchild of Dr Anton Rupert, the company has long had a focus on brandy above other spirits. The corporation has also become well known for its “Bergkelder” concept, which invites wine estates to make use not only of this South African distiller’s bottling facilities, but also its sales and marketing expertise. The company is also responsible for the creation of African liqueur, Amarula, as well as a range of cider, RTD and wine brands including Nederburg, Durbanville Hills, Fleur du Cap and Pongracz. Last year Distell announced revenue growth of 11.9% for the year 2012/13, a success driven primarily by growth across the African market, as well as the weak Rand. However, the biggest news from the company in the last year was its £160 million acquisition of Burn Stewart Distilleries, which owns Scotch whisky producers Bunnahabhain, Tobermory and Deanston. Having moved its former Asia Pacific managing director Marius Fouché to head up the company’s travel retail business, this sector now looks set to become a target for future growth. Distell may remain rooted firmly in Africa, but its business is rapidly developing a truly international scope.

SAZERAC Sazerac is one of New Orleans’ oldest family owned, privately held companies and has operations in New Orleans, Louisiana; Frankfort, Bardstown, Louisville and Owensboro, Kentucky; Fredericksburg, Virginia; Carson, California; Baltimore, Maryland; Lewiston, Maine; Londonderry, New Hampshire; and Montreal, Canada. The story started back in 1869, when Thomas H. Handy purchased the Sazerac Coffeehouse and began to acquire and market brands of liquor. He bought out the rights to Peychaud’s Bitters in 1873 and then in the 1890s his company began to bottle and market the Sazerac cocktail, now made with rye whiskey instead of brandy. In addition, the company operated the Sazerac Bar on Royal Street. Later on, it was Handy’s former secretary, CJ O'Reilly, who chartered the Sazerac Company. Ever since (except for a stint as a delicatessen and grocery vendor during Prohibition), the Sazerac Company has distilled an ever-increasing line of fine spirits. Today, it remains an independent, family-owned company and proud owner of many of America’s most venerable distilling companies – Buffalo Trace Distillery, A. Smith Bowman, Glenmore Distillery, Barton, Fleischmann, Medley and Mr Boston. • An extended profile on Sazerac appears on page 12.

ASIA PACIFIC SPIRITS PRODUCER OF THE YEAR TROPHY: NISHI SAKE BREWING CO Starting in 1845, Nishi Sake Brewing triumphed in this year’s IWSC with its impressive collection of Shochu spirit. Distilled from a range of raw agricultural products that include barley, buckwheat, sweet potato, rice and wheat, Shochu is viewed by the Nishi Sake Brewing Co as very much a gift from the land. The distilled spirit is prepared using only produce cultivated by farming families that are within sight of the brewery. Furthermore, the brewery itself is surrounded by a range of lush green mountains, dominated by the highest of all Mount Takamine. The rain that falls from the sky gets stored in these mountains, giving the distillery a rich supply of pure water. Among the stand-out expressions from Nishi Sake Brewing Co’s extensive Shochu range is its Tenshi No Yuwuku 7-year-old, made from sweet potato, which scooped both an IWSC Gold Outstanding medal and the competition’s 2014 Shochu Trophy. However, with no fewer than 25 medals this year, there are plenty of high quality, diverse styles for Shochu fans to explore from this producer.

BOUTIQUE DISTILLER OF THE YEAR TROPHY: DESTILLERIE HIEBL Established in 1997, Destillerie Hiebl is located in the heart of Mostviertel in the western part of Lower Austria. “Quality and Innovation“ is the credo of Georg Hiebl’s impressive collection of spirits and liqueurs. His range of products includes traditional fruit spirits such as pear, apple and plum, alongside more exotic expressions such as beetroot, porcini and citrus fruits. As if that wasn’t enough, Georg Hiebl also produces a selection of classic international spirits, including whisky, rum, vodka and gin. His family business he only works with the best raw materials and distills them carefully to create outstanding spirits. Georg Hiebl described distilling as an act of creativity, a kind of poetry: “The target is to find the perfect balance between colour, odour and flavour,” he explains. “The way is a careful handling of nature’s gifts. To preserve the original flavour of the fruits is the secret of all my spirits. To reach this ambitious target it is necessary to pause for a moment and absorb Mother Nature. Then it is possible to bring the concentrated power into the bottle.“
