ouse Bill 243 takes effect on March 22, mak ing the month of March noteworthy for the Ohio alcohol beverage industry. several parts of the bill bring changes that will hopefully help permit owners ramp up or grow their business, or even help start new businesses. learn about these law changes on page 6, where superintendent Bruce stevenson highlights a few exciting new provisions. further educate yourself on Ohio’s liquor laws on page 8, where Dave Raber discusses the liquor Control act and how to prevent infractions from occurring in your business. we take time this month to congratulate 2012’s OlBa officers and award winners and to feature the big events Janauary and february brought for the OlBa. Molly Mckee covers the Officer installation and annual Banquet, as well as our annual Convention and legislative luncheon. Read highlights and see pictures from all of the events on page 13.

Chuck Deibel takes on the topic of draft beer this month in his last Call column on page 11. he puts some myths to rest and offers advice on which systems produce the best tasting beer while also reducing the total amount of beer wasted.

Once you’re serving high quality beer in your establishment, you may be interested in which brews pair well with which foods. Chef Quinn allen tackles the topic in the Chef’s Corner column on page 17. Beer, with its seemingly endless flavor range, can be tricky to pair with food because of the broad flavor variety. Chef Quinn will equip you with the knowledge you need to make great recommendations to your customers. finally, read Barry Chandler’s cautionary tale on page 15 in his article, “how nOt to use social Media.” he shares the story of one restaurant owner’s facebook post gone horribly wrong, and how the situation could have been handled instead.

to home. here are some of the highlights: Micro-Distilleries (a-3a permit): there is no longer a restriction on the number of (a-3a) licenses for spirituous liquor manufacturers that produce less than 10,000 gallons per year. new small, local businesses may open or existing ones may expand.

Micro-distilleries can now sell tasting samples to customers at the distillery.

Only two a3a permits are currently issued, but there are seven pending applications statewide.

One of the first businesses to apply was Buckeye Distillery in tipp City. already manufacturing spirits that can be purchased in limited quantities for carryout, they will be able to offer visitors a taste of their products.

Breweries (a-1 permit):

Breweries will now be able to sell the products they make for carryout and by the glass on the premises. new tasting rooms must be separate from the manufacturing area and comply with Ohio administrative Code requirements for restroom facilities, sanitation of dispensing apparatus, and brand identification on all taps.

Carmel Brewing Company in Cincinnati was one of the first to get started on opening a tap room for tastings since the law eliminates an additional and expensive permit (a-1a) to sell their unique products at their facility. they are one of 66 breweries in Ohio. there are 11 pending applications for new ones. spirituous liquor tasting samples: Ohio’s Contract liquor agencies that hold a D-8 permit will soon be able to host five events each month offering the sale of limited tasting samples of spirituous liquor products (intoxicating liquor containing more than 21% alcohol by volume). these agencies are

private businesses including liquor, grocery and convenient stores.

Offering tasting samples provides a venue for manufacturers to introduce customers to new products. tasting events will be conducted in a safe and controlled environment: limited to the spirituous liquor sales area, and all employees of a trade marketing company conducting the event must receive alcohol server training before inter¬acting with the public. growlers for Carryout (D-8 permit): grocery stores and carryouts that hold a permit to sell limited tasting samples of beer and wine for on-premise consumption (D-8) will be able to offer their customers a sample of beer to take home in a “growler.” a “growler” is a one gallon reusable glass container that holds beer for carryout. state Contract liquor agencies are prohibited from selling growlers. there are other provisions of house Bill 243 expanding the availability of permits in Community Entertainment and Revitalization Districts, and streamlining permit transfer for economic development.

Business friendly regulations coupled with our commitment to excellent customer service will help the industry create new jobs and keep Ohio moving in the right direction. anyone with questions regarding these changes, or in need of assistance expanding or starting a business, please contact the Division at (614) 644-2360.

TECHNIQUES OF ALCOHOL MANAGEMENT Enroll Your Staff in This Course- HB 243 May Require It

A

s we embark upon a new year, don’t forget that the OLBA has a program that can help you get ahead of the competition! TAM, or Techniques of Alcohol Management, is a comprehensive server training program that helps the permit holder maintain a responsible staff. This is not just for on premise establishments; with tastings of spirituous liquor in state agency stores, it is critical those individuals conducting the tastings get trained as well!

Don’t wait until you’ve been cited for what your employees didn’t know. Have them trained before it is too late! The OLBA makes scheduling classes easier than ever.

TAM can help keep you aware of the legalities within the industry. The TAM program is a comprehensive program designed to give servers the know-how to be alcohol servers.

One of the most valuable aspects of the program sessions provide detailed information about state laws, as they relate to the alcohol beverage industry, along with information about the scientific effects of alcohol, how to recognize when a person is impaired and tips on dealing with the intoxicated.

With the passage of HB 243, Ohio law requires those individuals conducting a spirituous liquor tasting in a state agency store complete an alcohol server training class!

During a class session, students begin by taking a pre-test, which will help them gauge their knowledge prior to the class.

The rest of the session consists of a training session by a certified instructor, a video and a workbook. Afterward, they are tested again. Those who pass the test receive a certificate and a TAM certification card that they can keep in their wallet. These classes are $25 per student for OLBA member establishments and $60 per student for nonmembers. The online class option is $50 per student and is available at www.olba.org .

Don’t wait until you’ve been cited for what your employees didn’t know. Have them trained before it is too late! The OLBA makes scheduling classes easier than ever. Here’s what you need: •A place to hold the class. Your establishment can work fine, but it needs to be in a quiet area away from the day-to-day operations of your business. It also needs to be large enough to set up classroom style for at least fifteen people. If you don’t have fifteen people don’t worry, there is also an online version of the class.

BY PHILIP A. CRAIG

Phil Craig, Executive Director

schedule the class at any time of day, depending on what works best for you.

When you have decided upon these two things, call our office at 800-678-5995 and we’ll get to work scheduling the class for you. We assign a certified TAM instructor to your class and that’s it. The only thing left for you to do is to inform your employees and encourage them to attend.

Some employers even make it mandatory.

These classes are very beneficial to tavern owners. Sometimes, insurance agents even provide lower rates to tavern owners who have all their servers trained. For further information on how you can protect your establishment by giving your servers this valuable information, please call the OLBA State Office at 1-800678-5995.

•Three dates that can work for you. The classes are 3 ½ hours long so please be prepared to block out that much time on your chosen date. We can

does not necessarily result in a revocation of the liquor permit.

First all permit holders should have trained and continue to train every employee with regard to the laws that govern the sale of alcohol beverages. If a permit premises is cited for a sale to a person under twenty-one, the Commissioners will consistently ask if the establishment has server training.

If the permit holder does, then the Commission will consider that training as a mitigating factor when considering a sanction.

Train your employees to lessen the chances that a sale to an underage person occurs. If such a sale does occur and a citation is issued, demonstrate to the Liquor Commission that you are a responsible permit holder and you do train employees to understand and obey the law.

Ohio law states that a conviction of a permit holder “or the holder’s agent and employee” can be used as a basis for a citation being issued against the permit premises. Thus, if your employee is charged criminally with an underage sales charge, then the fate of your liquor permit maybe in your employees’ hands. For example, some employees fail to raise viable defenses, because they cannot afford an attorney and

therefore plead “no contest” or “guilty” just to be done with the case. This will save on expenses for the employee; however, your liquor business is on the line.

A permit holder should follow their employee’s criminal cases and make certain all available defenses are raised. Some of the toughest cases for permit holders are cases when the state is able to produce a conviction supporting the charge that alleged conduct did, in fact, occur.

However, the Ohio Supreme Court has ruled that the conviction must occur during the employee’s employment with the permit holder. Thus, if it is your business policy to terminate employees that fail to adhere to their training, then the State will have to prove the offense charge and is precluded from relying on a conviction of a former employee.

Commission Regulation 52 contains a prohibition against “improper conduct.” Again a permit is liable under Regulation 52 if he or his agent or employee “knowingly or willfully” engages For in improper conduct. example if an employee, even without the permit holder’s knowledge, illegally sells drugs or food stamps in and upon the permit premises, your business will be issued a liquor citation.

The Liquor Commissioners, again, will listen to all the facts and circumstances. If the permit holder can credibly establish that they had no knowledge that this conduct was occurring, the Commissioners will want to hear that. Additionally, a clean prior record with a few or no past violations will also confirm for the Commissioners that you, as a permit holder, run a law abiding and respectable business. A penalty will be imposed, but you most likely will not lose your liquor permit.

It appears this Commission may be willing to give permit holders a break when they proactively take action and do what a reasonable person would do in a given situation to cure a problem. Always take immediate action to rectify any situation in and upon your permit premises which you believe may not conform to the regulatory standards. It could save your business.

By Dave Raber s a liquor permit holder, you are responsible for all conduct that occurs on your premises. Laws in the Liquor Control Act allow for a finding of a citation violation whether the permit holder was aware of the activity or whether an employee was acting surreptitiously.

Draft Beer systems

By ChuCk DEiBEl

h

i and welcome back to the last Call! this month’s topic is Draft Beer. here’s shooting down a small myth. when a keg is rolled around and bounced up and down, the beer will come out foamy. nope! a keg is constructed with a tube that is connected to the tap at the top that draws the draft beer out of the keg. the tube runs all the way down to the bottom of the keg. this means it draws draft beer from the bottom of the keg. when you shake up a container with fluid, the bubbles and foam are at the top of the keg and the bottom is still fine. that’s where the beer comes from. so rolling around a keg will not cause foaming problems, unless the keg is very close to empty.

thERE aRE twO ways tO MEasuRE DRaft BEER invEntORy anD salEs. OnE is By wEighing thE kEg tO DEtERMinE thE aMOunt Of BEER in thE kEg. OR, yOu Can puRChasE a flOw MEtER. a keg will remain fresh about 45 days once it’s filled. kegs need to be stored in less than 70 degrees of heat or secondary fermentation begins. the stabilization temperature is 38 degrees. so once a keg has reached 38 degrees, the draft beer is fine. a keg that is at 50 degrees will take about 25 hours to chill to 38 degrees, if the cooler is at 38 degrees.

Beer will freeze at 29 degrees. if draft beer is served at 40 degrees or higher, it will foam when poured. have your glycol looked about every 8 months, as that’s about as long as it lasts, up to two years. it will run in the neighborhood of

about $200 to replace. how much draft beer is in a draft line? about ½ of one ounce for every foot in a 3/8” diameter line. that’s how much draft beer at a minimum you will loose when the keg blows or the lines are cleaned. a draft beer fob is a great investment. a fob might cost as little as $75. a fob stops the flow of draft beer out of the line once the keg is empty, thus preventing the “blowing” of the keg. this can do two things for you. One, it can save the beer in the line from being wasted when a keg is empty and two, it saves you time when changing the keg. the longer the draft line, the more beer it saves. there are two ways to measure draft beer inventory and sales. One is by weighing the keg to determine the amount of beer in the keg. By weighing the keg at the beginning of the period and then at the end of the period you can determine how much beer has been used out of the keg. it’s important the scale used is heavy duty and accurate to less than the smallest serving size. and it’s important to use the correct conversion method in converting the weight of the beer into the amount of beer in the keg. then you need to compare the amount of draft beer that left the keg to the quantity of the draft beer that was sold. this means you have to know how many pints and pitchers or any other size of serving was used for the measurement period of time.

Match up by brand the quantity used to the quantity sold and the difference is your shrinkage and lost sales.

Or, you can purchase a flow meter. a good flow meter system will be able to tell you how much draft beer has left the keg without weighing the keg. a really good system will have a software package that will show all the calculations and will

Chuck Deibel

tie into your pOs system. not all flow meter systems are alike. and not all can connect to your pOs system, so be sure the system will work with your pOs system. a good flow meter system should be able to show you in real time your flows for each brand and at the end of the shift be able to show you by each hour which beer was poured and by how much and how much of it was sold. Either get yourself a flow meter system or start weighing your kegs and you will be glad you did! that’s all for now. if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me at deibel@bevinco.com. talk to you next time!

when you did your inventory last week, how many shots of Crown Royal were you missing? how many pints of draft beer were you missing? if you can’t answer those questions you should give us a call at 800-891-1012 or go to www.bevinco.com Our clients do know how much.

osher wines appeal to a small segment of the population all year ’round. But there’s an admitted spike around important holidays like Passover, which begins this year at sundown on April 6th.

Kosher wines are made in much the same way that non-Kosher fine wines are made, with the caveat that additional rules are followed and the wines are made under Rabbinical supervision.

Certified Kosher wines are intended to be opened by observant Jews, while Kosher wines certified “mevushal” are treated so that anyone may open and serve them (this is a boon for catering halls and restaurants). Kosher wines are always identified as such on the label.

a Restaurant Owner's facebook post Makes national headlines

By BaRRy ChanDlER

t

he appropriately-named Boners BBQ in atlanta recently conducted a clinic on the worst possible way to handle social media as part of a bar or restaurant’s advertising/marketing efforts. when owner andrew Capron

discovered customer stephanie stuck had left a less-than-positive review of his establishment on yelp – stuck called the food “tepid,” the flavors “odd to bland” and the atmosphere “a bit lackluster” – he responded by going on his restaurant’s facebook page and unleashing an obscenity-riddled tirade.

Capron posted a picture of stuck he found on her facebook page and advised other restaurant owners that if they find her in their establishment they should “tell her to go outside and play hide and go f$#% yourself.” he also called her a name that rhymes with stitch. not surprisingly to those of us who know a little something about social media, the response blew up in the face of both Capron and his BBQ joint. initially Capron faced a backlash of fans who did not agree with the tactic of calling out stuck so publicly. Boners took the post down by the end of the day. But that didn’t stop word of

Capron’s behavior from making its way across multiple social media platforms, including facebook and twitter.

BaD REviEw On yElp (DEsERvED OR nOt) = BaD. natiOnal nEws stORy whERE yOuR EstaBlishMEnt COMEs Off lOOking Evil = wORsE. Capron ended up issuing a facebook apology that included the offer of a free meal. But that didn’t stop the story from going viral, drawing negative publicity from outlets ranging from aBCnews.com to huffington post to the new york Daily news. stuck told her story to all manner of media and in almost every instance the restaurant came across looking like a

mean-spirited bully. Emotional and illadvised as it was, Capron’s response to negative feedback further illustrates a point about social media we’ve been making in this space for some time. had Boners jumped on yelp and/ or facebook and sounded genuinely concerned one of its customers wasn’t completely satisfied, public sentiment would have swayed towards the restaurant. Even those who might have been swayed by stuck’s assessment would have been impressed that Boners cared so much about every person who walked through its doors – even the ones who make their displeasure public. not only did Boners fail the cardinal rule by not taking advantage of an opportunity, but it doubled down by creating a situation that didn’t need to exist: Bad review on yelp (deserved or not) = bad. national news story where your establishment comes off looking evil = worse.

fOOD anD BEER, thE pOwER COuplE how to pair them together to Maximize flavor

By Quinn M. allEn CsC

a

story as old as time, food and beer have been in a relationship longer than siegfried and Roy. and unlike church and state, these two pair miraculously well with each other. it is all about finding the right fit. as you can imagine there are endless varieties of food and nearly endless varieties of brew, so the combinations that can be made are simply infinite.

But how do you know which food to

Quinn allen, CsC

pair with which beer? with so many possibilities it can be easy to get lost. in a basic view of things, white wines compliment fish, and reds pair well with meats and other proteins, however beer is a much harder beverage to decipher when it comes to pairings. Beer can be more cohesive with any given dish than wine. when you think about it, winemakers have one ingredient to work with, grapes. when it comes to beermakers, they get to play with many varieties of hops, which give you bitterness, barley, which gives you sweetness, and yeast, which lend a “breadiness” characteristic and help control the alcohol levels. after those base ingredients are covered brewers have vast additions to choose from, including, but certainly not limited

to, nuts, chocolates, spices, fruits, and vegetables. and much like wine, beer will differ according to regions, such as Belgium with its trappist beers and the united states with our american ales. so what pairs with what? what are the best combination of beers to carry to compliment your menu, or vice versa, food to beer? in a short story, ales pair well with a variety of things, much of which are typical bar fare, burgers, hot wings, spicy food, fried food, and parmesan, Romano and Cheddar cheeses. Bocks pair well with Cajun style food, jerk seasoning, and things like sausage and spiced beef. lagers and pilsners pair with shellfish and seafood, stouts with smoked/grilled food and anything with a high salt content to bring out the malts.

as yOu Can iMaginE thERE aRE EnDlEss vaRiEtiEs Of fOOD anD nEaRly EnDlEss vaRiEtiEs Of BREw, sO thE COMBinatiOns that Can BE MaDE aRE siMply infinitE. the best thing about pairing food to beer is that the possibilities are endless, but it is very easy to ruin what the chef is trying to accomplish by pairing the wrong beverage with the wrong dish. some drinks can have a powerful influence over foods without the consumer knowing. a dry stout is going to mask some sweet flavors in such things as oysters and shell fish. so be careful when it comes down to your beverage selection, you could be doing more harm than good in some cases. Even though this is a

broad view of what can go with what, some people have red wine with sea bass and some have Riesling with filet. at the end of the day it comes down to personal preference. if you like a guinness with nachos, then by all means, do your thing. if you are serious about taking beer and food pairings into consideration on your menu, you must get some sort of education on the processes on both ends. find out what goes into the product used to make your dishes, and then gather knowledge on how certain styles of beer are brewed and why they taste the way they do, and

are classified the way they are. when you boil it down into how each is made, you will start to see flavors that will work together, and more often than not, the beer that shares the most characteristics with your dish will pair cohesively. so as the love story of food and beer continues to be written, be careful when you try to add to the pages, the relationship has been going smooth long enough, we don’t need any outrageous speed bumps setting us back. so don’t let me catch any of you steaming king crab in a raspberry lambic, sounds intriguing, but seriously. Don’t.

Mosca ato o sa le es ha a ve skyrr o ck e ted d , t han n k s t o a w ho o le e new grrou up of wine fa anss

BY ROBERT HAYNES-PETERSON

s robust as the U.S. wine market has been over the past two decades, it’s hard to remember a phenomenon even closely resembling the recent trajectory of Moscato. “Ten, 15% per year, that’s growth,” says Mordy Herzog, partner/VP of Royal Wine Corp., agents for leading import brand Bartenura. “We need a new word for what’s happening to Moscato.” Lou Capitao, managing partner of Touchstone Wines, which imports Ricossa Moscato d’Asti, compares the rise of Moscato to the rise of Australian wines. “But Moscato is doing in two years what Australia did in ten,” he adds.

M O S C A T O MOSAIC

The numbers are stunning. For a grape considered one of the oldest in existence, and long featured in low-profile, underappreciated dessert wines, Moscato consumption has exploded since 2009. According to Nielsen data, overall Moscato sales rose over 70% in 2011 over the previous year, culminating in about $300 million in sales (compared to $100 million in 2009). And that is on top of 100% growth for the category in 2010. In fact, the research group Wine Market Council estimates that even if growth in 2012 settles down to 50%, over the course of this year Moscato is on track to leapfrog Sauvignon Blanc and White Zinfandel to become America’s sixth most popular varietal wine.

The Moscato-tization of the nation is impressing even its longtime practicioners. “Our Moscato sales have been doubling the past few years,” notes Emma Swain, CEO of St. Supéry Vineyards and Winery in Napa Valley, which has been producing Moscato since the late 1980s.

“It really started taking off in 2009 in the Southeast, with St. Supéry being used in cocktails and as a luxury date night treat.”

The winery recently stopped pouring Moscato in its tasting room—and put a four-bottle limit on purchases online.

For further perspective, St. Supery’s Moscatos (they make both Napa Valley estate and North Coast bottlings) represent the luxury end of the Moscato price spectrum, at $25 SRP. The bulk of the action in the Moscato arena is taking place in the $8-$15 range, and while St. Supéry is a still, fruit-forward dessert wine with balanced acids, many of the most popular brands are produced in a simple, sweet, frizzante (gently sparkling) style.

SIM MPLE E STYLE, WIDE APPEA AL Indeed, one of the most amazing aspects of the Moscato story is that it is unfolding outside the parameters normally used to gauge wine categories and trends. Ratings are not driving this bus. The words terroir and Moscato rarely appear in the same article, let alone sentence. It hardly matters that there are some 30 clones of the

white Muscat grape, and it grows in almost every major wine region in the world (alternatively labeled Muscat or Moscatel) and that expressions can range from still and perceptively dry to vibrantly bubbly or sticky-rich. Indeed, Moscato is a pop wine in the truest sense; its popularity is fueled by its simple, welcome taste. The aromatics and flavors present a cornucopia of easy-tolove elements, from flowers and honey to tropical, citrus, lychee, melon, apple and stone fruits (especially peach), with upfront sweetness providing an overall family resemblance. Balancing acidity, most keenly expressed in Moscato d’Asti, keeps the wine bright. Moscato is refreshingly easy to say, sip and buy. It’s a happy wine.

While it’s the pop taste that keeps people coming back, there is also no doubt that Moscato’s popularity owes a huge debt to pop culture. Hip-hop culture, to be more precise. Rappers like Drake, AbSoul, Kanye West and Lil’ Kim injected Moscato into their lyrics, propelling it to status as a hip-happening club drink. As Ab-Soul sings: When things get hard to swallow / We need a bottle of Moscato.

Urban clubbers represent a significant audience for Moscato, but not the only one. Interestingly, other parts of the fan base are comparable in that they are not the usual wine-drinking suspects. Speaking on behalf of Wine Market Council in January, Nielsen’s Danny Brager characterized the Moscato audience, vis à vis the typical American table wine audience, as younger, more female, non-white and lower-income. Anecdotally, many if not most are first-time wine drinkers.

While the notion of a large, young, thirsty and previously untapped demographic market may be a marketer’s dream, Moscato’s rapid ascent has made overall analysis of the phenomenon somewhat tricky. Gallo launched its Barefoot Cellars Moscato—the largest brand in the U.S. at about $6 a bottle—way back in…

2008. Growth for the California giant has been tremendous—it now has four other Moscato labels (Gallo Family Vineyards, Mirassou, Bella Serra, Naked Grape) and holds 43% of the market share, but it is only a four-year history. Similarly, Australia’s Yellowtail and Jacob’s Creek, both influential in that country’s surging U.S. sales a decade ago, didn’t launch Moscatos until 2010. And Bronco, a perennial category leader from California, launched its two Allure bubblies just last year.

GET TTING G A HANDLE ON THE E MOS SCATO DRIN NKER Hard statistics behind the success of Moscato are hard to come by, according to Trinchero Family Estates Senior Director of Marketing Wendy Nyberg: “The category grew so fast, and was never segmented out in wine category analysis. This year, we expect much more documented consumer data.” Sutter Home’s foothold in the Moscato market has been buoyed by history; it was actually the first wine produced in California by the Trincheros, reflecting the family’s Piemontese roots.

From Nyberg’s perspective, the new Moscato drinker is “urban, young, hip and online. There is a viral enthusiasm for the wine on Twitter and through pop cul-

M O S C A T O MOSAIC

ture.” In terms of sales, “off–premise is the growth driver for Moscato,” says Nyberg, with restaurants slow to adopt Moscato for by-the-glass programs so far. Top markets for Sutter Home include New York, Chicago, Detroit, Northern Virginia, Richmond/Norfolk and New Orleans, she notes, “making us believe Moscato is being served in more clubs.”

There is plenty of optimism that the youth factor will keep Moscato momentum strong. Nearly a third of all professed Moscato drinkers are Millennials in their 20s. Lou Capitao thinks today’s youth are unimpeded by yesterday’s perceptions, aiding in the wholesale adoption of Moscato.

“In my day, we used to ‘think dry and taste sweet,’ but they don’t care. They’re much less pretentious, and just want their drink to taste good.” There are also suggestions that the American palate trends sweet and fat during economic hard times.

Affordability is a factor as well. To some degree, rappers have helped supplant Champagne (expensive) with Moscato (affordable) as the drink of choice for clubgoers. The African-American influence on the category can not be underestimated: R&B and hip-hop clubs from Houston’s Club Isis to Atlanta’s Sports Zone Bar & Grill are offering free Moscato as a draw on Ladies’ Nights. If these new consumers are hooked on the flavor profile—and the lifestyle—they could stay with Moscato a long time, the way Boomers took to White Zinfandel and later Merlot.

DEM MAN ND ASIDE DE,, WHA AT ABO OUT SUP PPL LY LY? Such dramatic enthusiasm around a millenniaold grape poses serious questions for growers, producers and marketers. Demand is outstripping supply. “We have even top-grafted some Semillon over to Moscato, and are still unable to keep up with demand,” says St. Supéry’s Swain.

Other producers in California are reportedly securing bulk grapes from across Northern Italy, or sourcing from Chile.

But how to meet long-term demand, and is it worth it? California is answering a tentative “yes” by stepping up plantings, but not by much. In 2005/’06, the state

While tor b better known for Proseccos, C Ceola says Mionetto has marketed Moscato 10 years (it currently has the “IL” Moscato and Moscato Dolce expressions), witnessing 80 to 90% growth in the past two years. “We’re seeing the category become crowded; everyone wants to be in the game. But quality is always the most important thing.” With broad expansion of

entry-level products and producers scrambling to meet demand, Ceola says, “It would be a pity if quality dropped. A good Moscato is a great option for younger drinkers and people who like sweet wines, but they stop paying for it if the quality goes down.”

Because the word “Moscato” refers to the grape, anyone can make a Moscato anywhere, blend and ferment it how they like. While Italy immediately comes to mind, France, California, Australia, South Africa and Chile are all players. (There is even a sparkling rosé Moscato from Moldova—Exclusiv, SRP $9.99.)

There are bound to be some internal debates in coming months, not only on sourcing, but also on stylistic variations.

Some larger suppliers are extending their Moscato bottlings (still/sparkling/white/ pink), but who knows which format will click best? Australian brand Jacob’s Creek has multiple variations, and parent company Pernod Ricard has even come out with a whole new sparkling pink brand, ZED. Perhaps they are hedging their bets, ready to ramp up whichever style takes off.

Meanwhile, Jacob’s Creek chief winemaker Bernard Hickin says, “There is a trend upwards at the moment for still Moscato that is more fruit driven and fresh, fresh, fresh.”

It’s hard to argue with fresh and sweet as a delicious and popular combination.

tion suggest a wide range of developments to keep an eye on.

New Shapes, Sizes & Looks. As brands jockey for shelf share, expect a variety of physical variations to reach the market.

Examples include Voga’s signature cylindrical bottle; a frosted white, longneck bottle from German producer Schmitt Sohne’s “fünf” brand; and Bandit in a 1L Tetra-Pak carton. Opici’s Villa Rosa is getting a makeover this spring. Similarly, Bartenura took advantage of a twomonth sell-out of its first sparkling pink Moscato to revamp its package and bolster supply (they are making ten times as much under the new design). With bottle sales in lounges and clubs on the rise, we can expect more upscale looks; the curvaceous blue-glass Mas-

chio “PM” is a new frizzante from Banfi, slated for spring release in Atlanta and Detroit. More 187mls and 1.5Ls should crop up, but not 3L bag-in-boxes; bubbly examples will remain in 750ml size, with cork and synthetic closures common. Alice White Lexia Moscato from Australia is available in 500ml cartons; Innocent Bystander, also from Australia, offers a sparkling pink version sealed with a crown cap.

But the quirky drink, a curious double shot ritual involving Jameson and pickle brine, exploded in popularity a couple of years ago, catching the zeitgeist of hipster bartenders and their young customers and adding yet another boost to the rocketing popularity of Irish whiskey in the U.S. The Pickleback is just one benchmark in the growing trend to return Irish to its pre-Prohibition standing as the country’s favorite imported whiskey. Sales continue to surge—a September 2011 Nielsen report indicated the category was up 21.5 percent over the previous 52 weeks, hitting nearly 1.4 million cases. The

unprecedented boom and attendant attention has shaken up the category quite a bit as the year closed. In December, Beam Global grabbed the last independent producer in Ireland, Cooley Distillers, supplier of many contract and private label whiskies as well as their own four labels—Greenore grain whiskey, Kilbeggan blended whiskey, Tyrconnell single malt and Connemara peated single malt.

Also in December, Pernod Ricard subsidiary Irish Distillers announced plans for a 100 million Euro investment in the expansion of its distillery in Middleton, now operating at full capacity. Irish Distillers aims to triple the sales of Jameson by over 9 million cases by 2020—sales of the whiskey totaled 3.5 million cases in 120 countries last year, about 1 million in the U.S. William Grant & Sons is considering County Offaly as the potential site for a new Tullamore Dew distillery.

ports in the Irish Times in December 2011, the company met with county officials to discuss the project, which would mark the return to production in its hometown of Tullamore.

As you might expect in such a relatively small business—only four large distilleries now operate—such signs of investment buoy all. “When you have great things happen in your category and segment, it brings in a broader audience,” says Yvonne Briese, VP of marketing, Diageo NA Whiskey.

Momentum and Promotion As the overall leader and the company that controls nearly three-quarters of the U.S. market, Jameson continues to lead the growth, outpacing the category overall. Recently, they’ve followed increased advertising support—the latest seen on cable TV, digitally and outdoors focuses on the apocryphal heritage of John Jameson—with a limited launch of Jameson Black Barrel. The whiskey, made with a higher proportion of pot still spirit aged longer than regular Jameson in bourbon and sherry casks, is only available in New York State currently.

There are other new releases heading to market in advance of the March selling season. Pernod Ricard is also working the ultra-premium end with a February release of Redbreast 12 Cask Strength, a nonchill filtered version of the single pot still brand. Aiming to give the boom in fla-

INCREASED ADVERTISING, DIFFERENT DISTILLATION REGIMES AND FRESH EMPHASIS ON MIXOLOGY ARE THREE WAYS SUPPLIERS AIM TO KEEP IRISH WHISKEY ROLLING IN THE U.S. vored whiskies an Irish accent, Bushmills has just released a 70 proof honey version.

And California’s Concannon Vineyards teamed up with Cooley to launch Concannon Irish Whiskey, matured in bourbon barrels for a minimum of four years with a portion finished for four months in Concannon Petite Sirah wine barrels, giving it a fruitier note in what the importer calls the Concannon Effect.

Irish whiskey has continued to grow at an impressive rate for a number of reasons,

The production facilities are not necessarily flashy—the Michael Collins distillery is pictured here—but Irish whiskey’s taste profile is designed to grab attention. Sweet and rich, with lots of vanilla and grainy qualities, it has more flavor and character than blended or Canadian whiskies but is not as robust and challenging for the newer whiskey drinker as Scotch and bourbon. Easy to drink straight or mixed, and particularly popular with women.

said Cooley global brand ambassador John Cashman in an interview before the Beam takeover was announced.

“Until 20 years or so ago, Irish whiskey was seen as something consumed only by the Irish community, but then things Irish became cool again,” he said, citing the international boom in Irish-themed pubs and even the emergence of pop groups such as U2, the Cranberries and Sinead O’Connor. In addition, he thinks current young legal age drinkers, raised with a taste for sweet beverages, have found Irish a natural fit when they first consider whiskey.

The growing U.S. market has inspired Tullamore Dew to significantly increase its advertising and marketing

IRISH WHISKEY

presence, says global brand ambassador John Quinn. “We’ve been looking at the opportunity, because nearly a third of all Irish in the world is sold in the U.S., and we asked ourselves why we weren’t spending more.”

Tullamore is very successful in Europe, and the second largest selling Irish overall, but it’s only since the Grant takeover that broad marketing initiatives like the current “Irish True” campaign were possible. New bottle and label designs are coming soon to help build the brand here, as well as an East Coast–based brand ambassador.

Raising the Bar On-Premise According to Wayne Hartunian, VP for whiskies and Cognac for Pernod Ricard, the introduction of Jameson Black Barrel, designed with cocktails in mind, will provide a trade-up opportunity between Jameson and Jameson 12 Year Old. While most whiskey makers pay more attention to the off-premise, Hartunian points out that Jameson is “extremely strong on-premise and has been for a while.”

Pernod’s research indicates bartenders often pick Jameson as their brand of choice for shots.

Importers of Michael Collins at Sidney Frank have noted the on-premise surge, says director of public relations Kate Laufer. “We’re seeing the trade embracing the brand through creative cocktails, as well as reintroducing contemporary cocktails with a twist. The bartenders enjoy the unique taste profile that Michael Collins brings with its double distilled production method.”

Laufer hits on a key point in the growth of Irish whiskey: Fans are discovering different distillations regimes (only Cooley regularly produces double-distilled whiskey), peat levels (Cooley again, although 100 years ago most Irish whiskies were peated), ages and finishes. Cashman compares the evolution to the way beer drinkers pick different styles for different occasions and expects more experimentation among suppliers.

A

s with many spirits, Irish whiskey is to a large extent bound up in a sense of tradition. But in today’s market, innovation is often the key to breakout marketing. While Tullamore Dew has the tradition side covered for William Grant & Sons, the importer has fresh ideas in mind for The Knot, a strong (100 proof), sweeter variation on the Irish theme. The name and front label—featuring a Celtic knot—nod respectfully to tradition, but back label sets the tone for an edgy approach:

“

By cracking this seal of The Knot you accept that drinking is never to be taken lightly and promise to act in a responsible fashion—not like some blithering idiot. You promise to drink The Knot straight up in a proper shot glass, rather than mixing it in some sort of novelty, tiny umbrella, fruit fiasco. And finally, you vow that you will never drink to anything that you are not prepared to go through with. If, in any way, you are not willing to abide by these conditions, by all means, please refrain from opening this bottle.

”

Targetwise, The Knot is clearly aiming for a hip, young demographic, as evident in the spoofy website shotoftheknot. com, with retro black and white imagery and rather salty videos.

Novelty Becoming the Norm While in limited supply, expressions that extend the range of Irish have been available for some time: Knappogue Castle, which built its reputation on vintage bottlings, has continued to push the boundaries, most recently with Knappogue Castle Twin Wood 17-year-old single malt Irish, the second in the brand’s Twin Wood series following a 16-year-old variant last year. Named for its use of both bourbon barrels and sherry casks, only 4,500 bottles of Twin Wood 17-yearold will be available, retailing for $100 a bottle.

Jameson has developed an Irish category management program for the off-premise, perhaps anticipating the expansion of styles, suggesting that retailers shift Irish away from Scotch whisky and adjacent to North American whiskies, where the category is more likely to compete.

Hartunian notes that while the core Irish drinker is between 25 and 34, there’s an increasing interest among 21 to 25 year olds as well. That’s helped push Irish up in months other than December and March, the traditional key periods.

“It’s a very vibrant segment of the whiskey category, so we look at it and see a lot of opportunity,” says Briese of Diageo. “Being number two, we see the leader paving roads for us to find our own special place with the Irish whiskey consumer.”

That includes not only Bushmills and Black Bush, which has developed a cult following, but also higher-marque aged malts, all part of the “Since Way Back” marketing and affiliation program.

Briese notes that the whiskey category overall is vibrant and exciting today, but nowhere are the changes and growth more riveting than with Irish whiskey. New distilleries, brand owners and investments can only mean that the changes in the once staid and traditional business have only just begun. ■

The Irish Whiskey Opportunity IRISH WHISKEY is the fastest growing premium spirits category in the US and the world. As the US economy continues to rebound and consumers invest again in higher end products, the relatively untapped super-premium Irish whiskey segments represent a tremendous opportunity to attract more and more consumers to the great taste, accessibility and unique profile of Irish whiskey.

Pernod Ricard USA has the most powerful portfolio of superior quality Irish whiskey brands available today including: Jameson®, the definitive market leader and primary driver of Irish category growth; Midleton® Very Rare; Powers® and Paddy® Irish Whiskies; and Redbreast® Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey. More than any brand in the category, Redbreast is poised and perfectly positioned to capitalize on the burgeoning momentum of the super-premium Irish Whiskey segment.

REDBREAST is a Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, which is regarded as the definitive expression of traditional Pot Still Irish Whiskey and remains the only ongoing bottling of an Age Statement Single Pot Still whiskey available in the U.S. today The brand was born in 1903 at the John Jameson Distillery. It was originally the name given to the bulk new-make whiskey Jameson sold to bonders who matured the whiskey in their ample supply of empty port and sherry casks.

Over time, stocks of the whiskey in bonders’ stores petered out, and REDBREAST all but disappeared until the brand was reacquired by Irish Distillers Pernod Ricard in the 1990’s and re-launched as a 12 Year Old Single Pot Still whiskey.

The REDBREAST name is inspired by the bird, Robin Redbreast, whose deep amber plumage bears resemblance to the rich sherry influenced color of Redbreast whiskey.

Today, REDBREAST is the best selling and most decorated* super-premium Irish whiskey in the world. The brand’s organic popularity and growth present the ideal platform for Irish whiskey enthusiasts and high-end single malt, Bourbon and blended whisky drinkers looking to expand their repertoire.

Ta ablet Technology is Vaulting Wine Lists s in n t o th e Di g i ta l Ag e

BY JEFFERY LINDENMUTH

ooking to increase your wine sales? There’s an app for that! growing number of developers are eager to make In fact, a g wine lists, and other restaurant menus, available to customiPads and tablet computers. While this may seem like ers on iPa expense for mere novelty, these developers claim that a huge exp delivering both as a marketing tool and hard sales tablet wine lists are de producers, as they aim to revolutionize the wine list.

Greg Rosner, partner in eSommelier, the Ridgefield, NJ–based creators of the iPad Wine List App, believes that the uniqueness of the user experience seduces the customer. “This is a way to create a guest experience that differentiates a restaurant. It’s like the investment you make in ambiance and furniture, some-

thing that pays off in word-of-mouth advertising,” says Rosner. He cautions, however, that the experience needs to deliver on the digital promise of convenience and service. Once a restaurant enters its wine list with the appropriate database information, customers can use the iPad to sort by categories like vari-

etal, region and price, or even use the on-screen keyboard to search directly for favorite wine producers.

For eSommelier, part of delivering a quality experience also meant insisting on the Apple platform, as opposed to offering an app that runs only on jailbroken devices or non-Apple tablets.

(This common workaround for outlaw apps voids the warranty of the Apple device and makes operating system updates a chore.) “The Apple product is a premium-priced product, but we really feel it gives a quality experience, from the minute you hold the device,” explains Rosner.

THE SMARTLIST Brian Wolcott, VP of Maxx Menu, displays one of many Android-based wine tablets.

The versatile iPad Wine List offers a good level of customization for an off-therack solution, allowing users to “skin” the app with their own look and feel, like adding the food menu, wine label images and/ or pairing suggestions. The app can be downloaded free, but requires a subscription, starting at $299 a month for activation on up to five iPads.

H

ardware Hurdles

The greatest greates challenge for restaur restaurants, and therefore developers, lies in the price of outfitting a restaurant with tablet computers—a substantial upfront expense. Rosner suggests that one iPad wine list per 30 seats is the minimum. With people spending more time passing and perusing the list, many find they need to add more. And, if you intend to retire your paper food menu, that number is likely to rise even higher.

The premium price of Apple products and the growing marketshare and acceptance of Android-based tablets encouraged Maxx Menu, based in Stamford, CT, to go Android. “We’ve chosen to go with Android because of the price point and also the open source.

With Apple you are limited and forced to develop within their walls. There is a significant price difference between the lowest iPad, at $499, plus a leather case and screen protector, versus competing Android tablets,” says Maxx Menu VP Brian Wolcott.

Maxx Menu, available in the Android Market, also offers searchable database categories and the ability to customize filters. A one-time start-up cost of $2,995 applies to up to 20 devices, with a $99 per month hosting fee. Like many systems, Maxx Menu tablets rely on a wifi connection for occasional updates, accessing the cloud-based information as it is updated by the wine director or owner through an administrator tablet. Most users begin with 15-20 tablets.

eal World Results

Since its lau launch in October 2011, Maxx Menu has noted som some impressive figures. Treva Restaurant & Bar in West Hartford, CT, reports a 20% increases in sales for food and the same for wine. Perhaps most surprising is the 30% increase in dessert sales. “We’re finding that it’s a digital menu is very powerful when you can offer an enticing visual or a wine pairing to make the upsell,” Wolcott says. Another of Maxx Menu’s early adopters is Flûte in Manhattan.

Some of the most sophisticated cross marketing and brand development on restaurant tablets is appearing from leading restaurateurs like Gordon Ramsey, Tony May and José Andrés, all utilizing the

SmartCellar software from Long Islandbased developer Incentient. In addition to sorting and selling wine, SmartCellar works to assist each client with custom branding, guiding the guest through a carefully orchestrated experience. “We are a certified enterprise developer with Apple, so we are able to lock down the device, including the home button, and take the guest down the journey we want them to go on,” says Jennifer Martucci, inventor and co-founder. “We feel it has to be completely customized for every client because some have 100 bottles of wine and some have 10,000.”

While Incentient clients have reported overall wine sales increases of 25%, Martucci says the ability for sophisticated customization—for instance having the wine list button first go to a single special feature wines—has increased sales of such wines by as much as 30%.

Far more than a pretty display, a custom tablet can push information to the guest—whether it’s selling cookbooks and sauces, promoting upcoming special events or suggesting alternatives to a sold-out wine. And Incentient is inventive in the collecting of information and customer interactivity. “This is a powerful data-mining tool. You used to write down the name of a wine for a guest, now we can collect their email and send them the label image. Then, you might follow-up and say, ‘Thanks for coming, we wanted to let you know we got the new vintage of your favorite wine in,’” says Martucci.

Unlike cloud-based solutions, Incentient prefers their on-table iPad solu-

Custom applications, including design, set-up and installation, include a one-time charge of $1,200. However, Incentient also chooses to own and maintain all hardware with scalable plans that start at $750 a month.

“When anything goes down we replace it overnight,” says Martucci, offering peace of mind when the occasional iPad falls to the floor or meets a glass of spilled wine.

In addition to increased revenues, some Incentient clients have been able to offset the investment in digital menus and drinks lists by tapping distributor dollars, featuring spirits brands on their cocktail list or promoting wines by the glass in the equivalent of high-tech table tents, for example.

The depth of wine information is theoretically limitless. Practically speaking, however, it remains to be seen whether people are willing to invest the time to drill deep into computers at a restaurant.

Another question mark: how fast new variations on the basic concept of electronic wine lists evolve and multiply—as well as how soon they may trend down in cost.

Florida-based developer Hospitality Social, whose Apple-based Personal Sommelier is being used in several Shula’s Steak Houses, has programs starting at $69.95 per month per iPad, including leased hardware.

Taken in perspective, tablets represent the most important technological advancement in wine list (and menu) development since laser printers. But while laser printers were easily controlled in-house, tablets involve elevated technical expertise and at least at the outset require outside setup and support. Coming months are bound to bring even more options into the digital wine-list arena.

HubWorks Interactive, based in Couer d’Alene, Idaho, is looking to increase revenues by revolutionizing other functionalities, including giving guests the ability to instantly order a fresh round of drinks, or pay their check. These “few dudes in the mountains,” as co-founder Aaron Gabriel Gabriel humbly refers to HubWorks, have scored a coup with a trial taking place with Buffalo Wild Wings in Minneapolis.

While it’s not an expansive menu, their first efforts in interface design have an intuitive feel and bold look that should appeal to chain restaurant diners.

Tablets surely have viability that extends beyond restaurants and bars. Royal Caribbean teamed up with software firm Agilysis to created a customized “Savvy Sommelier” iPad-based system that encompasses direct-ordering capability, server-guest messaging, embedded video content and cross-promotions; the system is multilingual, to boot.

MICROS Systems, a veteran information technology firm serving the hospitality and retail industries, recently debuted its “mymenu” app at Victoria Gastro Pub in Columbia, MD. In addition to replacing a 60-page Libations Book with a wellillustrated, organized and searchable iPad database, the MICROS developers helped integrate Beer Club and Cork Club loyalty programs directly into the iPad system.

Randy Marriner, owner of Victoria Gastro Pub, says this enhanced capability provides an unprecedented view of customers’ specific activities, and allows them to recognize and reward core clientele as well as attract new or less frequent guests.

As Argentina’s flagship wine surges ahead, Trivento and Concho y Toro help lead the charge

BY KRISTEN BIELER

T

his April 17th is the official World Malbec Day. However, given the grape’s phenomenal growth and status as America’s fastest growing red wine, it seems more like Malbec Year.

Imports of Argentinean wines are up 25.3%—a full seven times more than the growth of the overall wine category— which makes the South American giant #5 in terms of imports to U.S. shores. In other words, Argentina’s importance within the U.S. has grown more than any other import country over the last few years.

This is overwhelmingly thanks to Malbec, which accounts for over half of the Argentinean wines that land here.

Malbec sales were up almost 50% (46.5%) in the U.S. last year and two brands accounting for much of that increase are Trivento and Concho y Toro, with eight different Malbecs between them.

“Our Malbec business continues to grow quite aggressively,” says Ed Barden, director of marketing at Excelsior Wine Company, which is no exaggeration. While the Trivento line experienced a 44% boost over the last year, Trivento’s Malbecs were

Port Tries to Turn the Corner Tawnies Lead Comeback Effort, As the Category Continues to Evolve

BY ROGER MORRIS

W

hen your business hasn’t been going that great, even a modest 3.2% uptick in sales growth can look awfully good. At least that’s the thinking these days in the tradition-laden Douro Valley of Portugal, where the last few years, while not the worst of times, have certainly been quite lean.

Production of its primary product— Port—has had a substantial drop-off of about 11% between 2005 and 2010.

Big-volume markets such as France, Holland and Belgium have softened considerably. At the same time, sales to the United States, a reliable but smaller consumer market, has seen a steady decline of more than 10.2% during the same period.

But now, the Port industry sees signs that this decline may have bottomed out. “Port sales to the United States and Canada have started to boom again,” says Rupert Symington, whose family owns one of the two largest portfolios of Port brands. “Sales of all Port to the U.S.

PORT-BY-THE-GLASS PROGRAMS FAVOR THE READY-TO-DRINK, CASK-MELLOWED TAWNIES were up last year. But, then, that’s after we’ve had a few bad years.”

The unanswered question, of course, is whether this one-year increase represents a market correction, such as restocking of inventory, or the leading edge of growth in real demand. “Sales of

all Port to the U.S. were up last year. But, then, that’s after we’ve had a few bad years.” The good news as of now is: the better the Port, the better the numbers.

IVDP figures on total exports, by market, for 2011, show United States sales up 8% and the premium Port category up 15%; making the United the second largest premium market (232,000 cases) after the United Kingdom (527,000 cases).

Either way—market blip or economic trend—everyone agrees that the Port business continues its path through an evolution, both in the relative importance of each product category in its overall market basket and in the ways customers are buying and enjoying Port products.

For example, even though Vintage Port—the region’s highest-priced and most pedigreed product—is currently seeing good sales response to its stellar 2009 vintage, the category continues to decline in importance relative to other

Today, Vintage sales by volume are only about 3% of total Port sales, being superseded in importance by another quality category that, while less pricey than vintage, still fetches a considerable sum: Tawnies.

Frank Pagilaro of Frank’s Wine Mart in Wilmington, DE, says that he has in inventory 92 different bottlings of Port dating back to a 1970 Dow’s, but “Tawny outsells vintage by at least three times, mainly due to price. Factor in LBVs (Late Bottled Vintage Ports) and Rubies with those Tawnies, and I’d say that Vintage is about one tenth of my Port sales.”

Tawny Time (On-Premise Too) “The consumer interest is coming from the aged Tawny category that in 2011 grew 7% and, over the last 10 years, by 41%,” agrees Robert Bower of the Fladgate Partnership, the other major producer of quality Port brands. “We would sell 3,000 to 4,000 cases 10 to 20 years ago,” Symington adds, “but now we sell around 20,000 cases.”

Part of this Tawny demand in the U.S. has come from the cultivation of on-premise or restaurant and bar sales.

ready-to-drink, cask-mellowed Tawnies, whether they are 10, 20, or 30 years old.

Sandy Block, beverage director for the Legal Seafood chain of restaurants, says that only one of his eateries carries Vintage Port, primarily to sell by the bottle at large dinners. By contrast, all of his restaurants sell Tawny by the glass on their dessert menus, he says, “and we have popular tasting flights of 10-, 20and 30-year Tawnies.”

Some U.S. restaurants and bars have been experimenting with Port-based cocktails, brought on in part by the introduction by Fladgate Partnership

in 2009 of the first Rosé Port—Croft Pink. As the after-dinner drink market declines, due in part to stricter drunk driving laws, Port has tried to follow Cognac’s similar move to being a beforedinner mixed drink.

And there are other emerging categories, as well. “Apart from the Rosé or light Ruby style, which is becoming increasingly popular, the whites can now be found as a special category section,” says Louisa Fry of the Instituto do Vinho do Porto or IVDP. Those include “reserve white,” “aged white” and “colheita.”

Additionally, Port has continued to heavily promote its drinks in the U.S., both by individual companies and by the IVDP, which has a variety of co-promotion activities sponsored in conjunction with the Center for Wine Origins. Most of the activities feature wine education programs for trade professionals.

The Fladgate Partnership, whose brands are Taylor Fladgate, Croft and Fonseca, has been working to expand its U.S. lead in entry-level Ports with its flagship Fonseca Bin 27, according to Bower.

For its part, Symington (Warre’s, Dow’s, Graham’s, Smith Woodhouse, Quinta do Vesuvio) recently added Cockburn’s to its portfolio and is giving special attention to refreshing the brand,

Single Quinta: ▼ Port made from a single estate; like LBV, offers Vintage complexity and intensity, at slightly lower price point.

Examples: Graham’s Quinta dos Malvedos and Taylor’s Quinta de Vargellas.

Douro Valley from Malvedos (Graham’s)

according to Rupert Symington. Additionally, the Symington company—unlike the Fladgate Partnership—has for the past several years expanded into the growing Douro table wines markets, which are not considered a part of Port production.

Symington, who partners with Bordeaux’s Bruno Prats in Chryseia and some other Douro table wines, often uses the same grapes picked from its prized Port estates or quintas, such as Vesuvio, in the production of both Port and table wines.

Industry restrictions on Port production make this alternative especially attractive.

Finally, Port is finally taking agritourism quite seriously, both as a revenue generator in itself and as a way to promote Port overall. Of all of the world’s major wine regions, Port and the Douro Valley outside of Oporto city are famously picturesque but also among the most isolated by geography—it’s not easy to get there.

The relative lack of travel and hospitality infrastructure has begun to change. The region takes pride in the upper Douro being designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2001, and in its membership in the international promotional organization called Great Wine Capitals. Although train travel up the Douro is basic but generally reliable, and travel by cruise boat is becoming more popular, getting up river by car involves driving along precipitous, winding, two-lane mountain roads. “We are building a new highway,” Symington points out, although the economic climate has forced delays.

In Oporto itself, the talk of the town is the Fladgate Partnership’s new luxury Yeatman Hotel, nestled amid the Port aging and blending warehouses of Vila Nova de Gaia on the south side of the Douro with great views of the city across the river.

Of course, Port is not the only wine category to face hard times during the current worldwide recession or the only one to go through historic cycles of boom and burst. Champagne regularly experiences such fluctuations. And sommeliers and retailers are both wondering if the high-end cult wine sales will ever reach pre-recession levels. Add Australia, which has practically fallen off the map but is charting its return.

So Port is happy for its modest increase and has programs in place to build on it. For the moment, it will welcome its 3.2% increase. ■

BRANDPROFILE

True Blue Blue Nun Gets a Package Upgrade

BY KRISTEN BIELER

B

lue Nun is one of the longestlived, best known and most widely distributed wine brands in the world. Why tamper with the highly distinctive package of such a successful brand?

“Blue Nun has maintained its position by constantly updating its appearance to remain relevant to the contemporary consumer,” explains Nick James, vice president, senior brand manager, Shaw-Ross International Importers.

“The new Blue Nun label is clean and uncluttered, yet striking. It has easily recognizable links to the current Blue Nun label, but is less colorful and more elegant.”

A look back reveals that Blue Nun has sported a number of different styles over the years. It started out in the early 1900s as a simple Liebfraumilch bottled with a plain label. Wanting to stand out from the competition, the winery later designed a label which depicted nuns gathering grapes in vineyards. Customers began asking for the wine with the blue nun in the background, so the winery wisely switched the name to Blue Nun in 1923. Over time, the number of nuns on the labels was reduced and, by 1990, only one remained. Soon after, the bottle color went from brown to blue, and in 2001 the nun was reduced in size and again modernized.

THE CURRENT PACKAGE IS MORE MODERN, DESIGNED TO ENTICE YOUNGER CONSUMERS TO THE HISTORIC BRAND Blancs,” says Tony Sapienza, the sales director of U.S. and the Caribbean. “Wine consumers in general have evolved over the years, becoming both more adventurous and more sophisticated, but at the same time looking for simplicity.

While the traditional Blue Nun consumer is still important, we are going after a younger audience who enjoy fruiter styled wines. Many younger people do

Fun Facts: ■ The original color of the nun’s habit was brown; the change to blue happened in the 1950s.

But in attracting new consumers, is there a risk of alienating the tried-andtrue base who have been drinking Blue Nun for decades? “This is obviously a concern, but we have a comprehensive range of POS materials designed to reassure the existing Blue Nun consumers that in spite of the label change, this is still the wine that they know and love,” Sapienza reassures. “We will also be running trade and consumer advertisements to highlight the new label.”

New Look, Same Juice—Almost S Bl Nun fans will recognize the same Blue fru fruit-forward, peach- and apple-domina nated flavor profile, yet the wine’s slightly more refreshing style can be attributed to a reduction in residual sugar. “One of the reasons for Blue Nun’s longevity is that the character and quality of Blue N has not changed significantly over Nun th years,” says James. “But the reducthe tio in sugar adds an attractive freshness tion to the wine.” Produced primarily from th Rivaner grape which combines ripe the fru fruit characteristics with a Muscat and wa walnut bouquet, Blue Nun is expressive on the nose and palate. ■

COCKTAIL Hands-On Innovation is Catching On at the Bar

By W. Blake Gray

or the cocktail geek, barrel-aged cocktails are one of the most interesting developments of the 21st century.

For the bar owner, barrel-aged cocktails are an opportunity to grab some hip cachet and pull in extra customers. And off-premise sellers should keep an eye on this trend, because pre-made versions are already available in bottles.

Barrel-aged cocktails are “a big part of our business,” says Shawn Vergara, owner of Blackbird in San Francisco.

“We get a lot of people who like to come in and try these: industry people and cocktail enthusiasts.” Blackbird is a twoyear-old bar in a city well known for its food and drinks scene. It serves no food, but the barrel-aged cocktail program put it on the map.

Negroni and barrels at Clyde Common in Portland.

WH HEN A BA ARREL-AGED COCKTAIIL IS GOOD, IT’S THIN NG YOUR LIKE NOT BE EST BA ART TENDER CAN IMMEDIA ATE ELY WHIP UP When a barrel-aged cocktail is good, it’s like nothing your best bartender can immediately whip up. The spirits have melded together over a period of weeks, yielding a seamlessly smooth drink. Depending on the type of wood used, it might also have interesting accents from the barrel.

Carin Galletta Oliver, president of the word-of-mouth marketing agency Ink Foundry, says having such cocktails as a signature item is a good way to impress.

“When consumers come into a restaurant and bar, they want something new and they want some sort of ‘wow’ experience,” says Oliver, whose clients include Outback Steakhouse and California Pizza Kitchen. “A barrel-aged cocktail is something people want to go home and tell their friends about.”

However, there’s a reason barrel-aged cocktails are still found at only a few bars around the country: they take some investment, both in time and money. And if you find out after six weeks (or more) that you don’t like what you made, you have to either sell it anyway or, better, eat the losses. That’s why Jeffrey Morgenthaler, the bartender who imported the trend from London and now manages the bar at Clyde Common in Portland, says in an instructional video for Hudson Whiskey: “Start small.”

A barrel-aged cocktail program like Blackbird’s can be elaborate: the bar does three or four cocktails at a time with different types of aging vessels. But even a single barrel-aged cocktail—perhaps a classic like a Manhattan or Negroni—can get attention.

You can try the concept by sampling High West’s “36th Vote” Barreled Manhattan, made with the Utah distillery’s rye, sweet vermouth and bitters. It’s a steep $57, but it is delicious, with a softer profile and longer finish than you’d expect from a 74 proof drink. But if you’re in the bar business, you’re going to want to make your own.

Nick & Toni’s Café in Manhattan has been doing a barrel-aged Negroni for about a year. Assistant General Manager Richard Scoffier found inspiration on his honeymoon in the Finger Lakes, and uses Seneca Drums Gin as the base. “It took a while to catch on last year,” he says, “but then it sold out quickly at the end of the summer so we had a bit of a gap where we were out of it this fall. It’s a steady seller and I’m getting ready to put my third batch in the barrel now.” Promotion of the cocktail is low-key: “When someone asks for a Negroni we tell them we’ve got a house version. Other people are just intrigued about the barrel aging and want to give it a shot.”

Getting on the Barrel Bandwagon A few months ago, this story might have said, “The first thing you need is the barrel.” Tuthilltown Spirits in New York, which makes Hudson Whiskey, is the main company selling the small new barrels used to make these drinks. A 5-liter barrel is $96 before shipping. You can and should use the barrel more than once, but it is a startup cost.

However, now there’s an even cheaper way. Blackbird has begun aging cocktails in glass barrels with oak staves, ironically the exact same way that the wine industry saves money on barrels.

“We wanted to offer a lower price,” Vergara says. “A $10 cocktail moves a lot better than a $12 cocktail. If we can use products that allow us to keep the price down to $10, that helps.”

Avoid anything that isn’t spirits-based, such as juices, because they can go cloudy or even spoil. Fortified wine products like Vermouth and Sherry will work, but avoid unfortified wines or beer. Vergara now avoids organic liquors, which

may not have the same preservatives.

“We used one product that was organic, an organic cordial, and it fell out of the solution,” he recalls.

Consider using white liquors instead of those already aged in wood, so you avoid double-oaking. But before you reach for the vodka, consider this: the cocktail enthusiast tends to favor whiskey-based drinks. Solve this by using unaged “white dog” whiskies.

Make sure to prime the barrel first by filling with water and draining. You can pour the ingredients right into the barrel and stir. There’s no set time for the cocktail to be ready. Morgenthaler suggests you begin tasting it after six weeks, and often after that until you like the results.

At that point it’s important to empty the barrel into a glass vessel so the cocktail won’t absorb any more wood. Morgenthaler suggests leaving some of it behind as an experiment, so you can see if you would have liked it a week or two “woodier.” Filter the drink through a cheesecloth to remove stray bits of wood.

While making them requires a little work, serving barrel-aged cocktails is faster than even the simplest of mixed drinks, so they’re a great help for bartenders at the busiest of times.

Transfer the finished cocktail to a clear bottle—perhaps with a logo of your bar on it. Depending on the drink, you may want to shake it with ice, or serve on the rocks. You might want to store it in the refrigerator, but pouring from the bottle with your logo will attract other patrons’ attention.

Oliver suggests that the best way to get your new program noticed is to give small samples to your best customers— something almost impossible to do with a traditional cocktail. She also suggests that you might build interest, paradoxically, by not putting it on the menu at first, instead offering it only to people you know. “A lot of times people like to have something offmenu,” Oliver notes. “The secret element is a great way to introduce a new product.”

Most importantly, if your first cocktail looks successful, remember that your lead time is at least six weeks—so it’s already time to start making the next one. ■
