aving a license to sell alcohol in Ohio is a privilege that comes with many responsibilities. One of those is to understand and comply with the regulations that deal with the three-tier system and what is an authorized source for products. Ohio’s three-tier system has proven over the years to be a fair and effective way of controlling and providing for the safe, legal and responsible sale of alcoholic beverages. retail permit holders who think they might save a few dollars by purchasing from an unauthorized source and fail to comply with all of Ohio’s liquor laws risk much more than they could ever save. it’s important for all permit holders to remember that going to an unauthorized source to find a better price is never the best deal for your business. it is important for retail permit holders to pay close attention to what products you purchase and from whom you purchase them. We continue to see instances where on-premises retail permit holders are purchasing beer, wine and lowproof mixed beverage products from the Contract liquor Agencies that service their spirituous liquor accounts. this practice is a violation of administrative rule for both the seller and buyer. it is also a violation of the Agency’s contract with the 6 OhiO BeverAge MOnthlY MAY 2014

he Ohio legislature passed exciting legislation that continues to promote the important place alcohol beverages have in our economy. Amended Substitute Senate Bill 173 simply allowed for the expansion of two current tasting practices. however, beyond this simple expansion is the realization that alcohol beverage products are not the limited products they once were. the genesis behind tastings is to allow consumers to, obviously, taste new products, but also learn and appreciate the history and character behind each product. through these tastings, consumers have purchased new products; they have moved on to higher end products, they have rediscovered classic products. Am. Sub. SB 173 does the following: 1. increases the number of tastings per store from 5 per month to 10 per month. 2.

Spring has Arrived

reminder to Comply With Advertising laws BY DAve rABer

n

ow that Spring has arrived, a reminder to all industry members to comply with the laws governing advertising, utilitarian display enhancers and temporary display racks is in order. the trade Practice laws which make the regulation of alcohol beverages unique will be enforced by the Division of liquor Control (“Division”) and Department of Public Safety (“Public Safety”).

Dave raber, OlBA legal Co-Counsel

the Alcohol Beverage Control Act prohibits a manufacturer or wholesale distributor from selling or furnishing, directly or indirectly, or by any means whatsoever, any signs, fixtures, furniture or other equipment used in the connection of a retail business at a cost less than the full cost to the manufacturer or wholesale distributor. there are limited exceptions, but the prohibition shall not be disregarded. thus, if a retailer acquires a thing of value at a cost less than the full cost to the manufacturer or distributor, then a violation has occurred and all parties involved are subject to administrative citation. Umbrellas, for example, must be purchased by a retailer at the full cost. Ohio law restricts how outlets can use advertising to promote alcoholic beverages, and closely controls the distribution of marketing materials such as signs, fixtures and merchandise, as well as controlling contests, awarding of prizes, sales incentives and rebates among the three tiers of the distribution system. these types of regulations 10 OhiO BeverAge MOnthlY MAY 2014

work in conjunction with other measures that are targeted at controlling consumer behavior.

Summer is Fast Approaching

Jacob C. evans, OlBA legal Co-Counsel

As Summer approaches, the legislature will begin its final weeks before breaking for the Summer and giving its members time to head home and campaign for the november election. With the legislature wrapping up, there are several issues of interest to liquor permit holders. there is no specific timeline for any of these issues. 1. house Bill 469 Ovi PenAltieS: According to the legislative Service Commission, the bill is to allow, by court order, a firsttime alcohol-related Ovi offender to drive with an ignition interlock device rather than under court-ordered limited driving privileges as in current law, to eliminate the fifteen-day period in current law during which such an offender is subject to a driver's license suspension without limited driving privileges, and to make other changes to the law governing Ovi offenses. 2. house Bill 491 MiD BienniUM revieW gAMing

www.ohiobeveragemonthly.com

would make various changes to the gambling law, lottery law, and Casino law. Of particular concern to the OlBA are provisions that would make simple mistakes by locations with only a couple of skill based games subject to a felony. When bars and taverns only have a couple of machines for their customers entertainment, simple mistakes should not be subject to a felony. 3. Senate Bill 116 entertAinMent DiStriCtS would allow municipal corporations with a population of more than 50,000 to create municipal entertainment districts and to exempt persons within such districts from the open container law. Current discussions on SB 116 would allow townships that same ability. the goal of the bill is to allow for the creation of an outdoor area that would promote customers going to different establishments within the same district. Additionally, issues regarding liability for matters that arise in the street in which the outdoor area has been created need to be clearly defined. there are of course other issues that arise on a regular

basis. the goal of the Ohio licensed Beverage Association is to represent the interest of permit holders, like you! to ensure that we are representing your interests, i encourage you get involved. it can be as simple as taking the time to call the Office and letting us know of issues that are impacting your business.

GIN REIMAGINED

NO LONGER SIMPLY JU NIPER , T HIS SPIR IT CAN B E CLAS SIC OR CR EAT IVE, MODERN OR MYST ICAL BY JEFFERY LINDENMUTH


A

ccording to conventional wisdom, and to the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau, gin is a distilled spirit with its main flavor derived from juniper berries. That leaves a lot of room for interpretation.

Just ask Frank Cisneros, partner at Manhattan’s Gin Palace, which boasts over 75 incarnations of the spirit. “It’s actually a carefully curated list, where the flavor profile of each gin is distinctive,” explains Cisneros, pointing out that now is the best of times for the Prohibition-era darling. “Just five years ago this would not have been possible. But we now have access to great variety—traditional styles like Old Tom gin, new gins in the American style, as well as classic London Dry.”

NOLET VESPER MARTINI COURTESY OF NOLET SPIRITS U.S.A.

LONDON CALLING For most of the modern era, London Dry has been the prevailing style of gin. Think of classic, juniper-forward brands like Tanqueray, Bombay Dry and its premium sibling Bombay Sapphire, and Beefeater. With a potent punch of juniper and ABV that exceeds the minimum 80 proof, Cisneros says these gins have the necessary backbone to stand up in cocktails like a Negroni. Detractors, and those weaned on vodka, however, sometimes liken their flavor to that of a Christmas tree, recognizing the juniper berry’s evergreen origins. Acknowledging that one gin does not suit all comers, many of these flagship brands have added line extensions, adjusting flavors, adding botanicals and sometimes lowering proof. Bacardi’s

OPPOSITE PAGE, CLOCKWISE FROM TOP LEFT: A still at the Beefeater Distillery; Tanqueray Sparkling Bees Knees cocktails; Bombay Sapphire Ultimate Martini; juniper berries, a key gin botanical, at Bulldog; Beefeater Bramble cocktail; Nolet’s Vesper Martini; bottling Big Gin; Bulldog Bumblebee Flip cocktail. THIS PAGE: Hendrick’s was a category game changer, launching in 1999 with an emphasis on rose and cucumber botanicals. Tanqueray No. Ten recently got a makeover, with the brand’s signature green rendered in a faceted bottle design.

Sapphire East, introduced in 2012, is a recent example. “Sapphire is a big, bold, classic among London Dry gins,” says Gary Hayward, house of Bombay brand ambassador. “However, we recognize that is not for everyone, and so we looked at the latest trends and modern flavors, consulting with bartenders to develop Sapphire East, with its additions of lemongrass and Vietnamese black pepper.” With a more modest 84 proof, compared to Sapphire’s 94, Hayward says that Sapphire East will help ease the entry to gin, especially among vodka drinkers. Sapphire East’s flavor sits firmly in the London Dry tradition, while offering consumers something extra. Cisneros observes this is a popular extension strategy among benchmark brands. “These are iconic gin brands, so I see their super-premium gins as a reward to their faithful fans and to the Master Distiller, offering something extra special.” Created by Desmond Payne, the Master Distiller in charge of stewarding the 180-year-old Beefeater brand, Beefeater 24 includes a unique blend of Chinese green and rare Japanese Sencha teas to complement, rather than reinvent, the Beefeater style, bottled at 90 proof. Tanquerary No. Ten, among the first to market in what Angus Winchester, Tanqueray global brand ambassador, refers to as the “ginnovation” of the 21st century, recently received a package makeover that reaffirms its super-premium status, with a faceted bottle cast in green glass that is more vibrant than the traditional Tanqueray. “Number Ten does everything that classic London Dry gin can do, but also shows how gins can play wherever other white spirits do these days, as most came

after gin. It’s a simple but great step up in flavor for a customer who typically drinks vodka martinis,” explains Winchester. Lest you think London Dry Gin remains the domain solely of big brands, Fifty Pounds is a gin made in the heart of London from a recipe dating to the first half of the 18th century. Crafted in batches of less than 1,000 bottles, Fifty Pounds is a boutique product that embraces the traditional London Dry profile.

LESS JUNIPER, TASTES GREAT A few London Dry style gins have long prided themselves on a more subtle juniper note, notably Boodles, which deviates


GIN REIMAGINED

In the U.S., craft distillers tinker with not just the botanicals, but every element of gin. Call them Contemporary Western Dry Gin, or perhaps Modern London Dry; by any name, many of these products are far removed from grandmother’s gin, with Bulldog Gin, launched in 2006, a good example. “We have juniper, but it is dialed back a bit, so that you can taste all the other botanicals,” explains Bob Beleson, managing director. “Suddenly you are tasting lotus leaf, white poppy and Dragon Eye, a Chinese fruit that is similar to lychee. We find people value a more complex and interesting balance of flavors.” Bulldog Gin’s brand positioning and marketing also stray from the traditional, with advertisements projected in public spaces, urban sidewalk stenciling and New York taxi commercials. Bulldog certainly got the attention of Campari America, which as of January 1st partnered to 24 INCLUDES distribute the brand nationally. A BLEND OF ASIAN The Nolet family, notable TEAS, COMPLEMENTING RATHER THAN for their creation of Ketel One REINVENTING THE ORIGINAL. Vodka, offers an eponymous gin in the contemporary style: Nolet’s Silver, an exquisite gin whose delicate floral notes belie its 95.2 proof. In addition to Turkish rose, Nolet’s Silver includes peach and raspberry as signature botanicals, but make no mistake, this is not a flavored product or one that exudes overt fruitiness. While the $50 MSRP puts Nolet’s Silver firmly in the superpremium realm, Nolet’s Reserve—with its saffron and verbena and $700 price tag— has smashed the ceiling on gin price. Other modern gins embrace current culinary trends in their recipes, like Caorunn, which hold a distinct regional identity derived from botanicals native to the Scottish Highlands. “Foraged

from the pack with its understated juniper flavor and a range of botanicals that favors savory herbs and spices over citrus. However, no one really knew just how far gin could roam from its juniper roots until Hendrick’s Gin launched in 1999. While William Grant & Sons’ Hendrick’s does include juniper, Bulgarian rose and cucumber are its hallmark aromas that captured the imagination of consumers and opened the gin category for experimentation. Some purists question whether some of the new entries are really gin, or merely botanical spirits, but following The Wall Street Journal’s anointment of Hendrick’s as the “Best Gin in the World” in 2003, there has been a steady stream of gins that pride themselves on a few proprietary botanicals, often emphasizing citrus, floral and other flavors over juniper. BEEFEATER

DELICATE FLORAL NOTES IN NOLET’S SILVER BELIE ITS 92.5 PROOF.

within a hand’s reach of the distillery, the Celtic botanicals infused in Caorunn provide a sense of place,” says Caorunn’s Simon Buley, referring to the gin’s wild rowan berry, Coul Blush apple, dandelion, myrtle and Scottish heather. Of course, Caorunn does include the requisite juniper, but it is more of a footnote. “There is an ever-sophisticated consumer who is actively looking for unpredictable drink experiences that deliver nuanced flavor, over one-noted profiles from heavy juniper gin styles,” asserts Buley. A sub-category all to itself, Monkey 47 is German gin based on the recipe of Wing Commander Montgomery “Monty” Collins of the Royal Air Force, who repurposed the juniper used to cure black forest hams for concocting gin in the region sometime in the 1950s. Revived by Germany’s Black Forest Distillers, Monkey 47 is newly imported by Sidney Frank Importing Company.

AMERICAN ‘INGINUITY’ While Western Europe has taken decades to slowly migrate away from London Dry traditions, in the U.S. the revolution is fast and furious, as craft distillers tinker with not just the botanicals, but every element of gin, sometimes even working on unusual base spirits. “The contemporary gin boom has primarily focused on unique botanical infusions. At 1911 Spirits, we took it one step further, distilling our gin from apples, which creates undertones of vanilla and

GIN REIMAGINED

caramel which delicately complement our botanicals,” says Stephen Brennan, co-owner and director of sales. Distilled in Upstate New York, 1911 Gin features only about half the juniper found in a typical London Dry. In contrast, Seattle-based Big Gin, introduced in 2011, embraces gin’s piney pedigree. “We are using a pot still and include gobs of juniper as well as botanicals sourced from around the world, because we want to compete on a world scene,” says distiller Ben Capdevielle. However, Big Gin shows its American roots with a base distilled from corn, as well as a “Bourbon Barreled” rendition. While top-selling domestic brand Seagram’s Dry Gin has long boasted barrel-aging as a point of differentiation, Big Gin Bourbon Barreled has an unmistakable wood influence, perceptible in its golden-cast and rounded taste. “New oak is a detriment because it kills aromas and we really wanted the juniper to stand out. So it occurred to me that many premium spirits are aged in used bourbon barrels,” says Capdevielle, who currently distributes Big Gin in a dozen states.

Gin is a darling of the craft distiller set precisely because it does not require aging. Given the large number of ingredients in many gins, organic-certified offerings are few. Farmer’s Gin, however, tackles that task by using organic botanicals and organic grains, free of chemical pesticides, chemical fertilizers and GMOs. Farmer’s achieves a balanced style with subdued juniper balanced with floral notes of elderflower and citrusy lemongrass.

MOVING FORWARD, LOOKING BACK Gin is a darling of the craft distiller set precisely because it does not require aging. Cisneros, who features the local gins of New York Distilling Company

and Greenhook Ginsmiths, both from Brooklyn, in his cocktails, says he is especially excited about the rapid proliferation of craft gins. “It’s an analog to what happened with beer, and how craft beer consumers take their choice very seriously. Gin is the perfect vehicle for creativity by distillers. You can distill it today and sell it tomorrow,” says Cisneros. As mixologists delve into the history books and encounter myriad recipes using obscure gins, styles rarely seen since Prohibition have returned to the back bar. Old Tom gin, of which Hayman’s Old Tom, launched in 2007 is the best known, is slightly fuller-bodied and sweeter than London Dry. Tanqueray Malacca has been likened to Old Tom in style by some bartenders, who are especially excited about its recent return as a limited-edition bottling. “It’s certainly closer to Old Tom–style gins, a softer and richer variant than London Dry,” says Winchester, who notes the marque has been a bit of a “unicorn” for bartenders and is being positioned primarily as an onpremise draw.

Dutch Genever, which Jaron Berkhemer, marketing director for Lucas Bols USA, is quick to point out is not gin, can’t help but be mentioned in the same sentence. “Although Genever shares a characteristic with gin—juniper—it really is a category of its own and actually gave birth to a juniperbased spin-off known as gin,” says Berkhemer with pride. By combining a base of malt wine with several distillates, Bols Genever is malty, full, rounded and complex, quite at home in a variety of 19th and 20th century cocktails. At New York Distilling Company, owner Allen Katz crafts Chief Gowanus from a recipe he discovered for an early American version of “Holland gin,” based on flavored rye whiskey which is then aged in barrel for three months, clarifying it is indeed “a kissing cousin to Dutch Gin.” Katz also offers Dorothy Parker as his American-styled gin and has revived navy strength gin Perry’s

Tot, bottled at a traditional 57% ABV. Plymouth, a bartender darling and companion to Pernod Ricard’s Beefeater, is one of the few other distillers to offer a navy strength gin, which despite its potency retains the palatable Plymouth flavor profile. “As a style, Plymouth Gin is less dry than a London Dry,” says Juli Falkoff, brand director. “Back in the 1750s, the ports of Liverpool, Bristol and Plymouth created their own versions of London Dry Gin, a more aromatic and fruity gin. Today only Plymouth Gin survives.” Cisneros may have to add another page to his gin list if the excitement continues, but he’s not complaining. “It’s a great time for gin, with the American craft distillers and revival of gins most of us have only read about,” he says. “At the same time, I don’t think brands like Beefeater or Tanqueray are going away. We have all these gins for a reason. They are each special.” ■

ow that the “cocktail revolution” has established a new normal, it’s a good time to look at how bars have adapted to an era of cocktail prominence. Successful bars—while diverse in size, ambience and focus—all share a sense of balance. Not unlike a cocktail that requires an inherent sense of harmony in order for its combined parts shine, so do bars need to make sure their moving parts—staff, bar organization, menu offerings, specials,

etc.—are in sync. All the better to respond to a thirsty audience. It’s true in established cocktail bar meccas but also in secondary and tertiary cities where culinary exploration is on the rise: More informed, but less elitist, drinking is the name of the game. And while classic drinks persevere, guests seem less interested in the studious, armbanded bartender spending five minutes hand-concocting their drinks and more interested in a great drink and a good time.

SIZE CALLS FOR SPEED Charles Steadman, partner at Jack’s Grumpy Grouper in Lantana, FL, where a casual atmosphere and tight cocktail menu translate to 250 guests per turn, notes, “The consumer is definitely over-educated now, which makes the expectation extremely high. This access they’ve got to the Food Network and programs like Bar Rescue and Hotel Impossible means that we’ve got to translate specialty drinks into something that works [for the guest] and works for volume.”

PREP, PREP, PREP

Increasingly, a bar’s identity is literally built in to its format. A sense of approachability is conveyed immediately by an open kitchen that greets guests as they enter Raines Law Room in NYC. While the bar’s design ups the ante on interaction, it compels staff to stay ahead of the game. Head bartender Meaghan Dorman says, “There is a lot of organization you can do beforehand to make sure your staff is prepped for every night of service. I am meticulous about mise en place, but also about checking the register for change, making sure we have menus ready to pass to guests, dishwasher ready to run and so on. On a Friday, for example, we have people waiting to get in at 5:00pm on the dot, so these things are immensely important.” Similar efficiencies are what keep Erick Castro’s bar, Polite Provisions in San Diego, putting out drinks when the bar is a more than two deep. He notes, “It’s all about proper set up and prep. If you don’t have a strategy in place for COLIN the night, you’re going to go down ANDERSON OVERSEES A FOURin flames.

I’ve seen a lot of bars make sure their staff is knowledgeable of the recipes, but if you aren’t preparing your bartenders for the high volume they’ll be serving, they’re not going to be able to succeed, therefore you’re not doing your job right.”

Volume forces creativity beyond emulating the hotspot down the block. Intriguing cocktails are being produced in a variety of settings, like Houston’s Anvil Bar & Refuge, where Bobby Heugel helms the business. Heugel, who comes from a background of nightclubs and wine bars, credits Anvil’s ability to crank out a ton of drinks to his cocktail-bar virgin status. “When Kevin and I opened in 2007 we had never been to another cocktail bar,” says Heugel. “We set it up the way we wanted to run bars; we set it up to be extremely fast.” Their approach emphasized streamlining design elements, such as putting the POS under the bar, increasing the width of the bar rail to six inches and building speed racks that hold every bottle needed to make each drink on their cocktail menu. Further, dividing labor resources and elevating the bar back’s role throughout the night wasn’t simply about increasing speed and profitability, but also about improving guest relations. Heugel explains, “If you set up an efficient bar you can spend more time with your guests.” Designing bars that satisfy both staff and his clients is the goal of veteran bar consultant Tobin Ellis of BarMagic in Las Vegas. “I am so happy the dive cocktail bar has become the next big thing. I relish the day when quality, fresh, balanced drinks are a given behind most bars, not something rarified and glorified by the media. It’s just drinking. Every bar that carries rum should be able to make a simple, fresh kick-ass Daiquiri without a speech or a lot of fuss,” says Ellis. Citing such examples as Broken Shaker in Mi-



TIPS FROM THE PROS

NEW BREED BARS

>>Erick Castro: “It also helps if the bar is built right. We logged in countless hours ensuring Polite Provisions is one of the most efficient bars you could work behind. The bar is designed so against it. Our bartenders move laterally from top to bottom, which makes them much more efficient and extremely quick. Their motions are very intuitive.” >>Tobin Ellis: “Smaller markets actually tend to have a disdain for larger markets as in ‘This isn’t New York, this isn’t Vegas, we don’t care.’ That is difficult to overcome sometimes.” >>Meaghan Dorman: “If you have a large space, that usually means bigger staff, and they should be able to work from any service station and execute the drinks. Training is important in these situations, so accuracy and organization are ingrained before the staff hits the floor. They also have to be realistic about what will work for the crowd and the best way to present menu options to these guests.” >>Bobby Heugel: “First thing people need to do when opening a bar—no matter what city you are in—is to accurately evaluate the price ceiling for that market. That will tell you how many drinks you need to sell on any given week. And that number will tell you more about your design concept and proposed menu than anything else can. Another really important thing: spend a lot of time training your support staff. This is the staff nobody ever talks about.” >>Michael Neff: “If you are going to be in the community, you have to treat them as neighbors instead of saying, ‘We’re a fine rum bar and know a lot about rum and come hear me talk about it.’ Engage your clientele as a shadow sales force— you want customers telling their friends: ‘You MUST go to this place!’ To achieve that, you have to personally try to get to know as many people as possible. Even on a busy night nobody wants a Denny’s level of service—‘Hi I’m Michael, I’ll be your bartender this evening.’”

DRINKS BRAND-SPONSORED COCKTAIL CONTESTS ARE EVERYWHERE... WHO WINS? BY ROBERT HAYNES-PETERSON

L

ucky me: This spring, I judged a Calvados cocktail competition, and turned down two other judging opportunities in the same month. While I am not about to complain, the overlap calls for a reality check. There are mixology competitions going on almost every week (if not every day) somewhere around the world. What does the industry get out of these increasingly high-profile extravaganzas? The concept of a dozen or hundreds of bartenders competing, often to raucous crowds and music, for the chance at a cash prize, a trip to a distillery or a brand

ambassadorship has exploded over the past few years to the point of ubiquity. This is the third year for the USBG World Class contest, sponsored by Diageo. The national finals take place in New York City this year, following five regional competitions. Bombay Sapphire’s Most Imaginative Bartender contest has been going on for seven years. Bacardi’s Global Legacy contest (the finals are scheduled to take place in mid-May) for five years. Most of the smaller brands have been hosting contests for only a year or two. Contest concepts range from the serious to the charitable to over-the-top. For the

2014 Calvados competition, it was relatively sedate set-up at Manhattan’s Barclay Bar & Grill which boasts NYC’s only Calvados bar (with almost 100 options). Contestants came up and crafted their drink, while presenting its backstory. By contrast, the 42 Below Vodka World Cup in 2012 was notorious for its ancillary activities—taking contestants and journalists bungee jumping and driving them about in bright pink Hummers. And why not—the finals took place in New Zealand. Flamboyant final rounds are becoming a byproduct of the proliferation, which organizers can defend as a natural extension of the fact that competitions can take nearly a year from regional start to national or global finish. “It’s a massive amount of work,” says Bombay Sapphire brand ambassador Raj Nagra. So why stage one of these beasts in the first place? Attention is always at the core.

“For the brand, the concept is [to show] you’re indispensible,” says Lynn House, national brand ambassador for Pama pomegranate liqueur. “It elevates the perception of it as an ingredient behind the bar.” Pama wrapped its first national competition in March at Play, a bar inside the Museum of Sex in New York. Getting recognized in a crowded field is a significant motivator for small and new brands, agrees Alberto Vollmer, CEO of Venezuela-based rum Santa Teresa. “It’s important for us that bartenders come to learn about the brand,” he notes. “Plus, Venezuela doesn’t have the best reputation right now, and we’d like to help improve that.” It didn’t hurt to have Venezuelan native Gabriela Isler, aka Miss Universe 2012, on hand in New York to watch. The winner of the brand’s first “Sip a Nightcap” competition received a trip to the distillery.

GRABBING ATTENTION For the giants, competitions can be a way to remind bartenders in an increasingly craft-driven world that more established brands are strong contenders for quality cocktails. “It gives us the opportunity to present our entire portfolio,” says Mark Schulte, Senior VP of marketing for Diageo. Think Johnny Walker, Tanqueray, Don Julio, Cîroc and more. “We can expose them to bartenders in a way that would take much longer if we went door to door,” he adds. Diageo and USBG hold seminars “training” about 1,000 bartenders each year for the contest; that’s some prime brand exposure. Brown-Forman has sponsored the Woodford Reserve Manhattan Experience for five years, with

regional competitions culminating in Manhattan, naturally. At the 2013 finals, held in partnership with Esquire magazine and attended by a flock of enthusiastic consumers, Miami-based Virginia King took home the coveted title of Master of the Manhattan. But as Brown-Forman Master Distiller Chris Morris notes, this competition also represents a way to strategically cast a net more widely over the nation’s cocktail consciousness, augmenting their well-established prominence in the Mint Julep via the Kentucky Derby and the Old Fashioned via the Belmont Stakes. The contests certainly boost the career paths of the winners. The bio for Moët-Hennessy’s UK brand ambassador Claire Smith notes her having won the UK’s largest competition, Battle of the Giants, back in 2001. Christian Sanders, the winner of the 2013 Most Imaginative Bartender contest, says, “I own a bar [Evelyn Drinkery in NYC] that was almost shut down due to Hurricane Sandy. So to get exposure and make relationships and contacts is very important.” Losers, in a way, are winners, too, Sanders notes: “Sometimes it’s the road trips that convince me. It’s a good way to get out of town.”

I

n their food, and in their beverages, today’s savviest consumers value authenticity and artisanal production. This group, which helped fuel the boom in microbrew beer and the craft distilling movement, are often the frontline of acceptance. For some, the small scale and hands-on approach that defines craft spirits might seem at odds with a U.S. spirits and wine industry leader the size of Pernod Ricard USA. After all, the company includes behemoths like Absolut, Chivas Regal, Beefeater and Jameson, each a leader in its class. Yet, Pernod Ricard points out that each of these flagships enjoys the company of one or more smaller compatriots in their category. It’s a big-picture view, where micro-brands complement, rather than compete with, their larger siblings, while also benefiting from the distribution and awareness a larger spirits company brings.

SMALL HANDCRAFTED BRANDS ARE PART OF THE FAMILY AT PERNOD RICARD BY JEFFERY LINDENMUTH

ABSOLUT HANDMADE Absolut has always been an innovator—with packaging, advertising and flavor extensions. With Absolut Elyx, the brand gets back to its origins of small, site-oriented distilling, by using single-estate wheat, distilled in a copper rectification still known as Column 51. “We are using technology from 1921, all manually controlled. It is really going back to the roots of what we’ve done, to utilize human supervision over every detail and offer something more for consumers who discern quality,” says Nick Guastaferro, Brand Director for Absolut. Unlike Absolut’s previous super-premium entry, Level, which seemed to distance itself from the Absolut name, Absolut Elyx embraces the power of its well-


“WHAT WE DO WELL AT PERNOD RICARD IS GREENHOUSING SMALL BRANDS AND GIVING THEM TIME TO GROW.” – Laurent Cutier, Brand Director known brand while telling a highly credible story of craftsmanship. “We think this is a new category, not a super-premium but a luxury vodka,” adds Guastaferro. Elyx currently has a strong focus on the on-premise, where bartenders value the vodka’s unique taste properties and silky texture.

CURATING CANADA Canadian whisky has long been the sleeping giant of the whiskey world, remaining generally sluggish in terms of growth and lacking the small-batch mystique that boosted American bourbon. Without a bourbon in the portfolio, Pernod Ricard looked to their Canadian partner, Corby Spirit and Wine Limited, for authentically lt lt North American whiskey. The result: Pike Creek and Lot 40. Like many of the best handcrafted spirits, both of these whiskies come from a visionary master distiller, Don Livermore, who puts his PhD in wood science to good use in refining the maturation of these northern whiskies. “He is a mad scientist when it comes to many types of wood and how they react,” says Paul Di Vito, VP Irish & North American whiskey. “With Pike Creek, we talk about the cool climate and the swings in temperature affecting the maturation. It’s also finished in a Port barrel for 6 months, so it offers the kind of complexity a connoisseur can fall in love with.” Lot 40 is similarly unique among New World whiskies, made with 10% rye and aged in 100% virgin oak.

ALL IN THE FAMILY While Jameson remains the largest and most dynamic story in the fast-growing Irish whiskey segment, Pernod Ricard demonstrates leadership with small

marques that show the diversity of style and price that are available within Irish whiskey. “We control 86% of the Irish whisky category, and most people here know Jameson and maybe Powers, but the key thing driving the explosion is the appetite for discovery and exploration,” says Di Vito. The single pot still Redbreast 12 Year Old has been growing organically for the last decade, according to Di Vito. It’s a divine spirit, well-loved by connoisseurs, but when courting fans of the exclusive, small and unique, innovation is paramount. So, Pernod Ricard has introduced Redbreast 21 Year Old, limited to just 20 cases for the U.S. Connoisseurs can also look for Green Spot, which has entered the U.S. market with similar cheers from Irish lovers. “We are building a diverse category, and the truth is if we were not Jameson, it would be very tough to justify launching Green Spot, so that bigger brand strength is a real asset,” says Di Vito. Midleton Very Rare is another example of an Irish whiskey that is truly handcrafted, and one that varies with each vintage. “Billy Leighton does that blend while Brian Nation handles the distilling personally,” says Di Vito. “These are genuinely tiny brands and the only thing that separates them from craft distillers for me is that these guys have been doing it longer.”

GREENHOUSE EFFECT Laurent Cutier, Brand Director, Scotch & Single Malt, draws a comparison to smaller brands as being like young seedlings, that demand nurturing and care until they are firmly rooted: “What we do well at Pernod Ricard USA is greenhousing small brands

Pernod Ricard’s Canadian whiskies benefit from a Master Distiller with a PhD in wood science; Pike Creek is finished in Port barrels, Lot 40 in 100% virgin oak.

and giving them time to grow. A brand like Plymouth Gin is a perfect example of that attitude,” says Cutier, pointing to the historic brand that Pernod Ricard has successfully championed right alongside benchmark Beefeater. The approach is similar with Aberlour, a single malt Scotch that remains the boutique companion to the much larger Glenlivet, which is in itself small by some comparisons. (The Glenlivet sold 385,000 9L cases in 2013, big by Scotch standards, yet dwarfed by many leading vodka brands.) The emphasis at Aberlour is on the people and their craft. “We have a rare continuity of workers at the distillery,” notes Cutier. “The people that make the whisky today are the same ones that made the whisky 18 years ago. They have seen that whisky from creation to maturation. Aberlour is further distinguished by the use of hand-selected ex-Sherry casks. Cutier says these are exciting times for whiskey, and he welcomes the newer entries that are making the category so dynamic, while continuing to educate on the differences afforded a century-old boutique producer. “Some of these newer entries are well done; some others will improve their craft with time,” says Cutier. “Crafted and small batch don’t always guarantee quality. Know-how and a hundred years of expertise distilling and aging whiskey make a difference.” ■

WINE LIST

Consultant, MW and MS Ronn Wiegand says that while organizing by region or variety is often easiest for guests to navigate, “One alternative format that seems to work really well with shorter lists and in more casual restaurants is where wines are organized wines by taste and style, often with the lightest wines in each category listed first, and the fullest last.” This format is great for restaurants where there is above-average staff turnover or where little emphasis is given to server wine training. However, he adds, “Alternative [concepts] begin to become a bit forced or confusing for lists with over 200 or 300 selections.” Even traditional formats have room for play. The lists at the Terroir wine bars in New York are essentially organized regionally, but that’s easy to miss among the producer profiles, rants, MontyPythonesque graphics and tangential asides. The intended message, says Wine Director Matt Stinton, is, “We take wine seriously, but we don’t take ourselves seriously. If it slows down ordering, that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It forces the guest to ask questions.”

At the Terroir locations in NYC, Matt Stinton oversees one “beverage list,” comingling wine, beer and spirits.

Counterintuitively, Terroir has one “beverage list,” notes Stinton, combining wine, beer and spirits. “One stop shopping better showcases the vastness of our program,” he explains. It also encourages cross-selling: “Some guests might say ‘I just wanted a glass of wine, but I see that you have Cognac…’.”

Hristo Zisovski oversees wine programs for the Altamarea Group; above, glass pours on display at Ai Fiori; right, the dining room at Costata.

PRICE MEETS POSITION A wine list is nonetheless a price list. Hristo Zisovksi, beverage director for the Altamarea Group, sometimes moves things around to keep pricey wines from appearing to prominently. “On the Tuscany page, Antinori’s Tignanello, a $200 bottle, might land first on the list, alphabetically. Even if it makes the page breaks lopsided I’ll put a first wine that’s cheaper,” he notes. “Or within Montalcino, I’ll put the Rossos first, before the Brunellos. I also try to do that at the bottom of the page. People look at the top and bottom right away.” Zisovski says that on one Altamarea list, they separated California Cabernets into single wines and verticals; the latter had many more expensive cult wines, so the page with single offerings helped guests find the more affordable examples. Of course, one could just put the wines in price order, lowest to highest. “In Khong River House is one of several popular Miami restaurant concepts owned and run by 50 Eggs, Inc.

high turnover restaurants and most casual restaurants with limited wine programs,” says Wiegand, “lowest-to-highest pricing can streamline wine sales, and guest turnover.” Restaurants with more serious wine programs may find that it discourages staff interaction. Nonetheless, The Marrow lists wines according to price within each section. “When I talk to people, [price] is one of their major priorities,” says Roberts. “I wanted the list to be friendly; if people have the opportunity to buy up, they will.” Reserve lists can also temper guests’ price worries, though Zisovksi notes that determining the cut-off price can be tricky. A Reserve list that starts at $100 may be fine for Tuscan wines, but what about that top red from EmiliaRomagna that comes in at $65 because of the region’s lesser fame? Fine-tuning and attention to detail come down to the individual line— and not just checking for typos. “A long sentence is hard on the eyes,” says Zisovski, so he uses the section headers to convey information, even if a section might only have one wine in it. He favors putting the varietal or appellation first on each line, but makes an exception for things like Super Tuscans, which he lists by their proprietary name. It’s about putting the information the guest will most likely recognize first. “My general rule is to be consistent within the category, Old World or New World,” says Zisovksi. “There is no right way or wrong way. Just be consistent.” ■

“South America has been a hotbed of activity for very good quality, entrylevel wines for import,” she says. And based on product quality, she says Israel is moving up the value chain for what it can charge for wines, while “lifestyle brands” continue to be important in the market. “The market does demand new products,” Whitman concludes, “and a plethora of new brands continue to crop up to meet this demand.”

Indeed, the American Marcy Whitman wine market is very thirsty. Table wine consumption in the United States grew by 1.2% in volume and 4.5% in value last year, with the average American now drinking about 16 750ml bottles per person annually. That’s up about 15% from five years ago, proving that

ALL MAPS COURTESEY OF PALM BAY IMPORTS

s the American appetite for quality wine continues to grow, importers are constantly on the lookout for new sources of wine across the price spectrum. Take Palm Bay International. Though the importer already has more than 50 suppliers in 11 countries, Marcy Whitman, Senior Vice President, is always in active search mode for the next great wine and region.



WINE HUNTERS wine drinking at some price point didn’t stumble during the Great Recession. While imports have not grown as fast as domestic sales—a 1.3% bump for home-grown last year versus a 0.8% increase for foreigners—imports continue to lead in the average cost per bottle by more than a half-dollar: $6.94 on average to $6.40 on average. In order to discover where this extra wine is coming from, we talked with a cross-section of importers who said they were searching for gems in a variety of places and ways: ■ Developing New World regions not previously known for their wine production ■ Discovering Old World areas previously underrepresented in the international marketplace ■ Mining already popular regions for different varietals or price levels ■ Down-structuring prices for regions with flagging sales ■ Promoting wine regions that can move up in price ■ Making new blends from around the world.

REACHING DEEPER “Increasingly, we are seeing good wine being made in southern Brazil,” says Leonardo LoCascio, founder and chairman of Winebow, “and they are still experimenting with a lot of international varieties such as Teroldego. Uruguay has a lot of potential, and it wouldn’t surprise me if their Tannat won’t at some time be on a level with Argentine Malbec.” Several importers also mentioned that there is still a lot of opportunity in Argentina and Chile. Leonardo LoCascio According to Whitman, “Chile continues to be a great source for quality wines across several price points.” Perhaps surprisingly, the Old World still excites most importers. Bruce Neyers, who heads national sales for Kermit Lynch, says that Corsica and Savoie are two new goto regions for their French portfolio. “We

The need for even the most upscale region to have entry-level wines is not lost on producers. have new producers Antoine Songy and some pretty exciting new wines from both,” Neyers says, “and they are steadily gaining in market acceptance and appreciation. And we are still finding some gems in Languedoc as well.” Antoine Songy, president of Robert Kacher Selections, also is still finding solid sources in the south of France, “especially in the Costières de Nîmes, where Bobby started, and in Roussillon.” In Italy, Ted Baseler, president and CEO of Ste. Michelle Wine Estates, says, “Puglia was once known for its blending wines, but technology has now helped make them world class. Their quality is far beyond their price points.” LoCascio notes that Sicily is gaining popularity at all price points.

“Spain is in no Ted Baseler way reaching its potential for sourcing wines,” says Dennis Kreps, co-founder of Quintessential. “It still only represents 4% of imports.” Spanish specialist Josh Hackler, owner Dennis Kreps of importer Spanish Vines, likes northwestern Spain. “Beyond Rias Baixas and Albariño, there is a lot of potential in Bierzo with the Mencia grape and in the surrounding mountain areas.” LoCascio ticks off countries with good potential in Eastern Europe: “Serbia, Croatia, Macedonia and so on, although there is more of a challenge with unknown indigenous varieties which are hard to pronounce, the same as it was with Greece.” Kreps says Quintessential found a bargain in Hungarian-made Grüner Veltliner. “We quickly went from nothing to 28,000 cases,” he says, “and it’s selling by the glass and in fine wine shops at $10 to $12, much less than what it would be from Austria.”

Importers are bullish on rosés from all over Europe, including areas where they weren’t traditionally produced.

Tom Steffanci, president of Deutsch Family, says “place”—Old World or New—is not a critical issue. Instead, he sees high quality/price ratio, simple presentation and emotional connection as the three Tom Steffanci keys to success with the younger generation. “They are less interested in place and more in lifestyle products,” he says. Steffanci sees Australia again on the upswing and is also “bullish” on New Zealand, Argentina and France as continuing resources for great value.

OLD REGIONS, NEW TWISTS “Valckenberg is still riding the ‘Pinot’ varietal emergence from Germany, having started with Pinot Noir a few years ago,” notes Julie Swift, national marketing representative for the company, “and we’re just now beginning to import the Valckenberg Pinot Blanc.” Songy says that “Grenache from France is something that people are getting interested in.” He also notes that Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and even Riesling are becoming available in the south of France, as markets look for lessexpensive versions of these varieties.

Importers also cite grower Champagnes as a category that continues to attract buyers and hence importers. So do rosés from regions in all European countries, including areas in which they weren’t traditionally produced. “Rioja has reinvented itself as great wines at reasonable prices,” Kreps says, and several importers see Australia as a continent with great supplies of wine to be rediscovered—but at much lower prices than they once demanded. “Australia has bottomed out in the last six months,” Kreps says, “and now we’re seeing appellation-specific wines from high-end producers [which will sell] in the $12 to $20 range.” Steffanci says that

Deutsch is planning Australian brands beyond Yellow Tail. Winebow’s LoCascio notes that Sicilian wines have moved pricewise from the basement to the penthouse. “It’s not unusual to see Sicilian wines, especially from Etna, in the $70-$80 category.” E. & J. Gallo has been building an upscale import lineup by adding top brands from Italy and Spain, and Whitman says Palm Bay has been having success with higher-end Israeli wines, some featuring Rhône varietals such as Marsanne, Roussanne and Carignan that, she says, have “found a niche at the over $50 retail level.”

NO END TO BLENDS When I was in Mendoza last year, Argentine producers were ecstatic that American importers were opening up the American market for their prized red blends after decades of pushing only Malbec. For example, Palm Bay says it has had success with Callia “Bella,” a sweeter Argentine red blend of Syrah and Malbec. Palm Bay also formulated an Italian blend of Schiava and Teroldego called Porta Vita for Olive Garden restaurants that, Whitman says, “was so in-demand that we are cur-

rently rolling it out to retail across the country.” The need for even the most upscale region to have entry-level wines is not lost on producers. Even before the disastrous 2013 harvest, Burgundians were looking for affordable wines to offer importers. Speaking during the 2011 Hospices de Beaune auction, négoçiant Louis-Fabrice Latour set a dauntingly low bar for starter red Burgundies. “I have a concern,” he said, “that we don’t have enough entry-level wines at under 10 euros, 10 dollars, 10 pounds or 10 yen.” So far, however, no importer has mentioned finding such wines. ■

MORE WISDOM FROM IMPORTERS ■ Most importers are diversifying their portfolios to hedge against implosions such as that suffered by Australia. ■ The Great Recession thinned out many marginal importers. ■ At the same time, “Diversity has its limits,” says Steve Metzler of Classical Wines. “After you get past 12 to 15, the distributors start to say, ‘OK, which should I concentrate on?’” ■ While overall wine demand is high, demand for high-end wines is slow in returning to pre-Recession levels.

■ Everyone is searching for new concept or lifestyle wines. ■ Although importers will continue “pushing” new wines they discover, they also welcome the “pulling” of retailers and especially of sommeliers demanding certain wines, such as lighter-colored rosés and grower Champagnes. ■ Unless you want to hear adults groaning, don’t ask about currency conversion. ■ Everyone claims to be wanting, or selling, “authenticity” in their wines, although no one can quite define what that is.

IT’S WHAT’S INSIDE THE BOTTLE Because it was not conceived as a commercial endeavor, Casamigos results from a monomaniacal quest for quality. “We were fortunate to have the time, the patience and the money to pursue a liquid that few others can,” explains Gerber. This small batch, ultra-premium tequila begins with piñas from 100% Blue Weber agaves grown in the cool climate of Mexico’s Jalisco Highlands. The tequila is fermented with proprietary yeast in an extra-slow fermentation process lasting over 80 hours—nearly double the industry standard. Casamigos Blanco, which rests for two months, is crisp and bright, with vanilla on the nose and a fresh, grassy palate that offers a peppery, agave-highlighted finish.

MAKING NEW FRIENDS As part of their effort to spread their love of Tequila, the Casamigos team selected Sidney Frank Importing Company, as the exclusive importer and distributor of Casamigos Tequila in the United States. In doing so, Casamigos joins a family of exclusive spirits from this importing company with an impressive record of brand-building success. “We have a long history of building ultrapremium brands from family-owned businesses,” observes Lee Einsidler, Chief

Einsidler agrees that these owners live their brand, and he doesn’t expect people to buy into it based on their celebrity. He certainly did not: “Casamigos is part of the owners’ everyday lives. This is not a celebrity-endorsed product. We are not interested in that and have turned down hundreds of those over time. Casamigos was created by them and for them, brought to you by those who drink it.” Recent awards and ratings for Casamigos include a gold medal from the Los Angeles International Spirits Competition; an “Excellent” rating for Casamigos Blanco and Reposado at this year’s Ultimate Spirits Challenge; and best tequila in the world as reviewed in Men’s Journal, among others. Casamigos also recently won double gold medals for both Blanco and Reposado at the 2014 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. For Gerber, it’s validation of what he’s felt all along: This may be a brand enjoyed by celebrities, but it’s not just a celebrity brand. “We want everyone to enjoy and appreciate what we’ve done,” he says. Consumer buzz is building and some retailers are clamoring for more supply already, according to Gerber, who suggests an añejo and other offerings may be down the line. For now, the owners are focused on their partnerships with Sidney Frank and their Master Distiller in an effort to meet demand. “I want everyone to be able to enjoy Casamigos. But we drink it ourselves, so there will be no compromise,” says Gerber. ■

regon’s modern wine scene began 50 years ago. Before the state rode the triumphal waves of Sixty Minutes’ 1991 French Paradox report and the 2004 Pinot Noir—soaked movie Sideways, David Lett’s The Eyrie Vineyards Pinot Noir ranked ahead of a Joseph Drouhin red Burgundy in the 1979 Paris Wine Olympics. Robert Drouhin, one of the first major outside buyers, founded Domaine Drouhin Oregon in the early 1980s. Today, investments pour in from all over as the Willamette Valley transitions from a sleepy winemaking community to a world-class act. Oregon is the fourth largest U.S. wine-producing state, making over 1 million cases. Over half are Pinot Noir, made by 545 wineries from 905 vineyards, half are made by wineries producing under 5,000 cases. Consider that Washington, the #2 producer, makes 12 million cases a year. New York, the #3

state, is led by producers making over a million cases. In comparison, Oregon is still all about micro-production. What’s for sale besides Pinot Noir? Pinot Gris is the next most-planted grape followed by Chardonnay, Syrah and Riesling. But, that’s not all: 72 varieties are planted in its 17 AVAs. Since small family wineries are the norm, it’s tough to find under-$15 wines. Values tend to range from $15-30, whatever the variety. Wine-driven excitement bubbles around the state, but it’s the Willamette Valley and its six sub-regions that lead in quality, distribution and recognition. In fact, most of the state’s high-end Pinot Noir is grown in a 20-mile circle in the North Valley, which represents about 60% of the Willamette’s plantings.

THE WILLAMETTE The TTB doesn’t consider AVA applications through rosé-colored glasses and deem terroir their foundation. AVAs

require a locally well-recognized name and need neither to prove a consistent taste or style nor a specific quality level. As such, many Oregonian AVAs are derived from political and geographic decisions. While it pays to know a fact or two about each AVA, it’s most important to know the winemakers’ style and the vineyard’s location. AVAs do not dictate style and flavor in Oregon. By far Oregon’s largest, stretching 120 miles from north to south, the Willamette Valley became Oregon’s first AVA in 1984. (The sub-AVAs were declared in 2005 and 2006.) The Willamette (emphasis on the middle syllable: will-AM-it) is a cool, Pacific wind-influenced region that harvests as late as mid-November in chilly years like 2011. The Willamette’s primary cooling influence is the Van Duzer Corridor, which sucks in Pacific air as the valley between the Coast and Cascade Ranges

heats up. The winds move northeast toward the northern Dundee Hills, making those vineyards much warmer. Still, “warmer” is relative. Growing season temperatures at Hyland Vineyard in the Dundee Hills average 71.2 F during the day and 45.9 F at night, according to Erath’s Gary Horner. Soils here range from deep alluvial deposits to eroded basalts and wind-blown loess to uplifted seabed sediment. The two best-known types are the deep, red, volcanic Jory and the shallower, yellow-brown, alluvial Willakenzie. Basalt (Jory) gives red and blue fruit with baking spice, softer tannin and enhanced acidity. Marine sediment (Willakenzie) offers blue and black fruits, earthiness and bigger tannins. Mark Vlossak of St. Innocent says, “The darker the fruit and the edgier the tannins, the more the vine has struggled.”

Vines planted in sedimentary soils drain faster, hence they struggle. Dick Shea claims, “We have two seasons: wet and dry. It’s one or the other.” The Willamette receives almost no summer rain. An exciting take-away is that many high-end Oregon wines, thanks to their perky acidity and low yields, are ageworthy, despite the fact they’re hard to resist in their youth. ■

Perched on a high plateau, Rueda features extreme temperature swings and mineral-rich soils that allow the late-maturing Verdejo grape to achieve ripeness and flavor complexity.

The Next Great White Rueda Emerges as Spain’s Most Dynamic White Wine Region BY KRISTEN BIELER

s Spanish wine regions go, Rueda is a baby. Situated in the Castilla y León region in the country’s northeast, Rueda has only been a recognized D.O. (Denomination of Origin) since 1980. Sure, grape growing has been happening here since the 11th century, but its recent rebirth as a quality wine region means Rueda’s wines are just now hitting the world stage. Yet they’ve already established themselves as some of the most exciting white wines made anywhere—at appealingly low prices (most fall between $10 to $20).

A

A One Grape World Rueda stakes its claim to greatness on a single variety: Verdejo. Other grapes are grown here (Sauvignon Blanc, Viura and Palomino) but appellation rules require Verdejo to make up at least 50% of every white—higher for reserve bottlings—so the variety is without doubt the heart and soul of this region. It was a wise bet, largely because the grape thrives here. Rueda sits on a high

plateau which features extreme temperature swings and mineral-rich, alluvial soils. Verdejo is a late-maturing variety, so it relies on the elevation to achieve ripeness and flavor complexity. Cultivated here for centuries before political upheaval led to years of decline, Verdejo was largely pulled up in favor of the sherry grape Palomino, used to crank out inexpensive fortified wines.

GET READY FOR RUEDA Look for Rueda’s rise to continue as the D.O. Rueda and D.O. Ribera del Duero plan to join forces to promote their quality wines in the U.S. This integrated communications program will extend for five years, including public relations, social media, event marketing, advertising and Web marketing. The campaign tagline: “Spain’s Favorite White Wine.”

Credit for Verdejo’s return to center stage goes to Rioja’s Marqués de Riscal, widely considered the godfather of modern Rueda. Looking for a place to produce a fresh, non-oxidized white for the world market in the 1970s, Riscal settled in Rueda and set to work reestablishing the Verdejo grape—and dramatically changed the winemaking culture of the region. Also responsible: Angel Rodríguez, who refused to uproot his 17th-century Verdejo vineyard, Martínsancho. Today this estate’s ultra-old vines are organically farmed and turn out tiny quantities of some of Rueda’s finest wines—creamy, fragrant and incredibly complex. In recent years, it’s been nothing but growth. The number of Spanish wineries who have set up camp in Rueda continues to climb, making the region a hotbed of experimentation as talent pours in. Today there are 63 wineries registered in the D.O. Rueda, with two to four new wineries opening every year. Exports have jumped from 2 million bottles to 12 million in just 12 years. All things considered, the region’s goal, “To become the leader of quality white wine in Spain,” seems entirely realistic.

Old Region, Modern Approach Rueda’s winemaking heritage is ancient, yet it’s one of Spain’s most cutting-edge regions when it comes to vinification.


While many Old World wine regions feature new high-tech wineries, Rueda producers are applying the best of modern day winemaking practices to their most traditional grape rather than turning to ubiquitous international varieties.

Tailor-Made for the Table Another reason Rueda’s focus on Verdejo has paid off: These wines dovetail perfectly with today’s consumer tastes toward refreshing, high-acid wines that work well with food. “They are a sommelier’s dream,” says Mills. “Lighter examples pair with salads, seafood, calamari or soft cheeses. More robust versions would work with cream sauces and lighter meat dishes. Some of these complex examples can age, which enables them to take on nice honeyed characteristics.” Another advantage: they are high-quality across the board. “I have tasted dozens of these wines and though they are all quite different, they are all consistently high quality,” says Mills. Rueda’s wines are moving out of the realm of undiscovered obscurity into the mainstream—and easier for consumers to get their hands on. Of the 63 wineries in the region, 44 are currently in the U.S. market. Rueda exports are growing in the U.S. market by double digits every year. “It was slow at first, and took a lot of work, but the category is moving extremely well right now,” says Ricky Febres, National Marketing Manager, Shaw-Ross International Imports, who represents Marqués de Riscal. “There is so much opportunity, as the U.S. consumer is ready to embrace Spanish white wine. First it was Albariño, and now we see Verdejo from Rueda having its day.” ■

Stoli Reboots the Moscow Mule With a Snazzy New Ginger Beer, Stoli Group USA Lifts the Copper-Mug Cocktail to New Heights BY W. R. TISH

ocktail fads come and go, but the classics have a combination of great taste, compelling backstory and room for flexibility that allows them to be embraced anew. As Stoli Group USA ramps up in its first year of self-importing and solidifying their vodka’s premium positioning, brand executives have tailored dynamic promotions around three cocktails. Already underway is the #SearchForMary, keying on lomer cal Bloody Mary recipes; and this summer the brand will showcase refreshing variations on Stoli-driven lemonade. Perhaps the most exciting promotion of all is the brand’s elevation of the Moscow Mule, replete with Stoli’s own branded ginger beer and signature copper mugs. Made with vodka, ginger beer and lime, the Moscow Mule dates back to the 1940s, enjoying particular success in Hollywood and helping to fuel the vodka craze of the 1950s. The drink became a staple in the bartending canon, served in stylish copper mugs. Seizing on its most recent upswing, Stoli Group has taken steps designed to make the trend their own.

C

A Ginger Beer is Born Most notably, this April the company launched Stoli Ginger Beer. Michael Oringer, Sr. Vice President of Innovation & Trade Marketing, was able to shepherd the new companion product from concept to can in just a matter of months, leveraging his prior experience in the soft drink industry.

Displaying the spicy intensity that separates it from ginger ale, pure cane sugar and triple-filtered water also help distinguish it from peers. Stoli Ginger Beer comes bar-ready in 8.4 oz. cans—perfect for two Moscow Mules. It doesn’t hurt that the can itself (the same size as Red Bull) was selected after feedback from distributor partners, consumers and trade. The non-alcoholic ginger beer will retail in four-packs for $5.99, but Oringer explains that using it as a “catalyst” to enhance Stoli Premium positioning in both on- and off-premise is a priority. After a kickoff at the Coachella Music Festival, the Stoli Moscow Mule campaign will include hundreds of Managed Bar Nights, complete with copper mugs and bolstered by POS and social media (#RaiseYourMule). “To make sure we truly own the Moscow Mule in both on- and off-premise channels, we will be asking people to give their taste buds a

kick and invite them to trade up their usual drink to a Stoli Moscow Mule,” says Oringer. He fully expects the delicious kick of the new ginger beer to inspire bartenders to make other “mules” using tequila, rum or whiskey.

Old is New Again (& Way Cool) Stoli’s New York Brand Ambassador, Lindsay Eshelman, has already had a rave response from limited activation; she sees a mix of nostalgia and novelty fueling the campaign. “The Moscow Mule is a bartender’s dream because it’s only three ingredients and it’s delicious!” she says. “If the taste of Stoli Ginger Beer didn’t sway bartenders enough, the easy to use slim can has played a big part in winning over trade. It’s great for portion control: each can yields two perfect Stoli Moscow Mules.” The mugs themselves may turn out to be the wild card. Eshelman explains, “The copper mugs are a huge hit. I call it the ‘me too’ effect. Bar-goers see this amazing mug come out with a frosty drink in it and have to try it. Some bars have noticed that the mugs ‘walk off’ with a guest...so a few accounts have asked to hold IDs when a Stoli Moscow Mule is ordered to make sure the mug gets returned. It’s a bit extreme, but it shows how popular the mugs really are.” ■

The House of Stolichnaya™ introduces an innovative non-alcoholic mixer: Stoli™ Ginger Beer. Made from pure cane sugar and fresh ginger extract, it brings the ideal balance of sweet and spice to any cocktail. Start with Stoli™ Ginger Beer, available as a 4-pack of sleek 8.4 oz. premium cans.

Quality + Value = Castel Castel Group’s New Premium Châteaux & Estates Offerings Redefine French Value BY CARA McILWAINE

astel is the largest wine producer in all of France (actually in all of Europe), yet in the U.S. its portfolio has flown under the radar. Back around the year 2000, the family-owned Castel Group gained some momentum with their Nicolas brand of wines, but a subsequent backlash against French products was a major setback. With a renewed focus on quality offerings from its Châteaux & Estates properties, Castel Group is poised to make its mark. Michel Haury, President of Luneau USA, which imports Castel wines into the U.S., says, “The Castel Group is the compilation of many small to medium properties, each managed as if it was independently owned, but taking advantage of the strength of a strong organization.” While there has been success in the value sector with brands like Nicolas and Ed Hardy in the U.S. market, the Castel Group is working to showcase the quality of its French estate vineyards in Bordeaux and Provence. Haury says, “The idea is to promote and present the châteaux as their quality is increasing. We have all these properties with great terroir, and by putting in the right talent and management, these wines are better than ever.”

C

All in the Family Castel was founded in 1949 by nine brothers and sisters, and family members continue to have an outsize role. Haury notes how the second, third and fourth generations of the Castel family have assumed leadership positions. Philippe Castel (second generation) is in charge of monitoring oenological and technical aspects of the vineyards, and he lives at Cru de la Maqueline, which makes a lively red Bordeaux that Haury says is “the quintessence of what a Bordeaux wine should be.” Since it’s located in the Margaux lowlands, it cannot be classified as AOC Margaux, but that means the wine can be offered at a great value. At Château Cavalier in the heart of Provence, the younger generation decided to hire a former director from Domaines Ott for its rosé production. Sophie Palatsi-Castel (third generation) is Director of Quality for Castel Group, and she has done similar work at Domaine de la Clapière in Languedoc. Alexis Raoux (third generation) is in charge of The Castel Group’s sustainable development and is leading the charge with some other young members

of the clan to make some of the properties more sustainable, even organic. At the same time, the family knows when to defer to outside expertise. They have utilized consultants including Alain Raynaud, known for consulting on Chateau Pavie and Clos l’Eglise; and Eric Boissenot, sought widely in the Médoc for his expert palate, to assist the winemaking teams already in place at the estates.

Value Spotlight Haury acknowledges that “the U.S. is perceived as a mature market where quality has to make the difference.” Castel is dedicating time and resources to that end. “We could be taking all the wines to make blends to compete with large California estates, but we have a core belief in the importance of terroir and typicity in our wines,” Haury says. Prices for the French estate wines vary, but are generally in the $20-$60 range. For instance, suggested retail price for Château Barreyres is $24, but “Château Beychevelle is sold en primeur, therefore the price can vary a lot depending on the fame of the vintage,” says Haury. Overwhelmingly, feedback Haury and the Luneau USA team receive is that the wines offer consistent quality for amazing prices. The timing couldn’t be better. Americans are ready to re-embrace Bordeaux wines, and well-priced offerings from appellation-adjacent châteaux like many of The Castel Group’s properties drive sales. Haury notes, “American consumers want artisanal, they want classic Bordeaux, and they want value. Our wines have true French character and terroir, and that’s how we are carving our niche in the U.S. market.” ■



BAR TALK

Midwest Knows Best Nick Kosevich, Bittercube, Minneapolis BY ALIA AKKAM

n 2009, Nick Kosevich was tending bar at the Town Talk Diner in Minneapolis; Ira Koplowitz was in Chicago, behind the stick at the famed Violet Hour. A chance meeting brought the two together, leading to the formation of the cocktail consultancy Bittercube. Here, Minneapolis-based Kosevich (Koplowitz now calls Milwaukee home) talks about the duo’s range of craft bitters, the rise of the small city and adjusting to your demographic accordingly.

I

THE BEVERAGE NETWORK: You and Ira met in the thick of an evolving cocktail scene. What was that era like? NICK KOSEVICH: The first time I visited the Violet Hour I left with my tail between my legs because I realized just how little I knew about the bar. My cocktails at Town Talk always had a culinary background. I used lots of liqueurs and vermouth. But Ira had all of the classic methodology down. That was his area of expertise. We both left our jobs, moved to Milwaukee and launched Bittercube by working on our first project there, the restaurant Bacchus. We grew our clients and worked on developing menus and holding cocktail classes. Eventually we started training bartenders all over the country. TBN: And you are partners in Eat Street Social, in Minneapolis, where you created a cocktail program around drinks like the New York Sour (rye, Zinfandel, egg white, cherry bark vanilla bitters) and the Polar Vortex (rosemary-infused tequila, amaro, pineapple, grapefruit, seltzer). NK: Eat Street Social is our magnum opus. Being partners allows us great freedom. But we are also working on

the drinks at Blue Jacket in Milwaukee; Scratch Kitchen + Cocktails in Norman, OK; Mortar & Pestle in San Mateo, CA, which is opening another location in San Jose; and Red Bone Alley in Florence, SC. TBN: It’s great to see you working in cities beyond the oft-buzzed ones like New York and San Francisco. NK: Of course we would work in these cities but there’s no reason to seek them out when all these smaller markets are realizing the importance of cocktail programs now. This is our demographic. TBN: The rise of quality cocktails in the Midwest is particularly exciting, and you and Ira have certainly helped spike that regional development. NK: Minneapolis has been growing incredibly, and Milwaukee isn’t far behind. But it’s not about us picking places or making drinks we want. It’s about having relationships with each of our clients and determining what they need for their customers. The drinks we offer in South Carolina, for a city of just over 30,000 people, may require different price points and ingredients than what we do in Minneapolis.

TBN: How do you ensure that your programs maintain consistency? NK: We can’t always be there, so we’ve trained about 150 different bartenders to create solid cocktail programs based on what people want. Even making a simple margarita makes a difference, because we teach them that sour mix isn’t the way to go and fresh citrus is. It’s not that they need to know how to make 100 different cocktails. Instead we show them about six or seven formulas and give them the tools to adjust them to customers’ needs. TBN: Another big part of your business is your collection of artisanal bitters, which includes the spicy Jamaican #1 and the Blackstrap made with molasses. Are you expanding those products? NK: We debuted our bitters back in 2010. We are getting a lot of commissioned bitter work, in which we are creating blends—our ‘trinity’ encompasses our cherry bark vanilla, orange and Bolivar bitters—for house brands. We’re also working on a dried spice rum syrup and a line of bottled cocktails. ■

All-In By the Glass Christopher Gronbeck, The Barrel Thief, Seattle BY W. R. TISH

ith an eclectic mix of wine, whiskey, cocktails and small plates, The Barrel Thief already had the feel of a different-drummer sort of lounge when it opened in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood in 2012. But Owner/GM Christopher Gronbeck gave the place a real twist when he began using the Coravin system (which allows wines to be poured and preserved without being uncorked) and figured out how to hardwire the device to a full tank of argon, enabling The Barrel Thief to offer every single wine on the list affordably by the glass. As Gronbeck puts it, now guests get to explore the whole iceberg of wines, not just the tip.

W

THE BEVERAGE NETWORK: What is a favorite current pairing from your menu and list? CHRISTOPHER GRONBECK: I tried a dense, molasses-like 1983 Pedro Ximénez Sherry we offer with a salty blue cheese, and it was a match made in heaven. TBN: Do you do special promotions on a regular basis? CG: Happy Hour all day Tuesday, free wine tastings every Thursday, Washington Wine Month discounts in March, periodic educational events, and our own Buyers Club to which we offer great deals we find on wine. TBN: What are some wines that have done especially well for you? CG: We’ve been pouring a 2005 Tempranillo as our Happy Hour wine since we opened, and sell at least a case a week. Recent best sellers include the Tranche Cellars (Washington) Syrah, Turley Zinfandel and Corte Giacobbe Soave. We

also have a 5L bottle of Hedges [red blend] on tap at the bar right now—that gets a lot of attention. TBN: What are some recent trends you’ve noticed in wine? CG: On the consumer side, more willingness to try new things. Guests are getting more adventurous with custom tasting flights, which was the main point of offering them. They’ll pick out a couple they think they’ll like, and ask for advice on a third. In the Washington wine industry— clearly a response to the economy in recent years—more affordable second labels and project wines. Around the world, a recognition of the value of small and local wines...wines made by hand, with a sense of place. TBN: What tips do you find yourself frequently telling your staff? CG: In addition to approaching all of this with a healthy dose of humility, I ask them to speak mostly from personal experience.

CORKBOARD BTHIEF.COM Cuisine: Pizza and small plates, with a focus on Mediterranean Selections on the wine list: About 160, all by the glass, with most also by the bottle Bottles in inventory: 750 Price range: Mostly $8-$16/glass, with some older vintages and premium wines at $25 and up; full range is $6 (at Happy Hour) to $80 (1957 Port) Sweet spot on list: $16/glass reds; but $8 pours (24+ available) constitute about half of volume and a third of sales Wine list strengths: Variety (of regions, grapes and styles); frequent rotation (5-10 swapped out each week); custom flights at any price point; strong local focus (nearly half the list is Washington wine) Type of Stemware: Riedel Degustazione Preservation system: Two modified Coravin systems; Perlage sparkling wine preservation system for grower Champagne

Customers want to hear about the wine, but they really want to hear about your own experience with it. It’s a lot easier to sell something that you love! We try to keep wine less technical, we don’t worry about scores, etc., and we let guests trust us to bring them interesting wines that are a good value. ■
