Brazilian Wines in a Nutshell (and who imports them!)

Seven facts about Brazilian Wines

• The wines are more European in style than their South American counterparts. So ditch the comparison with Argentina and Chile and think more about European light, fresh, food friendly styles.
• 40% of all wine made in Brazil is sparkling. This is their real point of difference. They make sparkling wines as they do in Champagne from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir using traditional method. They also make a wide variety of sparklings using the Charmat method (as in Prosecco) but it’s their fruity sparkling lower alcohol Moscatos that are especially enjoyed the world over.
• In general, the abv (alcohol content) of the wines is relatively low, making them especially food friendly.
• The majority of grapes are grown in the deep south of the country – so forget your image of rainforests and tropical climate; 
down here the temperature is moderate
• There is one area of grape growing just 8 degrees from the equator in the North of Brazil where two harvests a year are possible. Grapes grow here thanks to the vast Sao Francisco river whose waters are used to irrigate the vineyards. Only 2% of Brazil’s wine comes from here.
• Many vineyards are located at altitude (600-800 metres above sea level) and they are situated relatively close to the 
Atlantic Ocean. The cooling breezes from the sea and the cooler temperatures (especially at night) 
create an altogether cooler climate; perfect for growing grapes of quality
• The majority of the winemakers have Italian heritage. Their ancestors started coming over to Brazil (principally 
from the Veneto) in the 1870’s. They still mainly eat Italian food.

SPARKLING SUCCESS!

JK MARKETING WINS THE DRINKS BUSINESS AWARD

FOR PR COMPANY OF THE YEAR 2015

We are thrilled to announce that JK Marketing took on the big boys of the wine marketing/PR sector to win the highly prestigious Drinks Business PR Company of the year 2015. From a short-list of three of the UK’s leading PR/marketing companies, the announcement was made at an awards ceremony during the London Wine Trade Fair at Olympia.

The editor of the Drinks Business, Patrick Schmidt, said:

“Even with a large team the results demonstrated by this company would have been praise-worthy, but for just two people to have achieved such an impact is deeply impressive. Between them, Judy Kendrick and Ana Sofia de Oliveira proactively devised a series of creative, highly strategic campaigns that over-delivered on a tight budget. Thanks largely to their efforts the UK is now the number one export market for Brazilian wine, after JK Marketing helped spark a volume shipment increase of almost 500% over a single year. Then there’s the success of two initiatives that symbolise the rejuvenation of London Wine Fair: Esoterica, a zone for independent merchants, and new for 2015 Wine Unearthed, which matches would-be exporters to the right UK buyers. In short, this is a PR team that really understands the wine trade and what makes it tick.”

As we went up for our award, the organisers played Stereo MC’s ‘connected’ – click here to listen – very apt!

It’s a great thrill to have been given this award. We are a very small team, but we pride ourselves on always going the extra mile. Business matching is key to every project we create, and this is why we are able to achieve such good results. We also have to thank Tom Dent of Double D Creative in Lymm who supports the creative elements of our business and is an invaluable member of the team. Find him at www.doubledcreative.com.

These awards are the only drinks trade awards that recognise the business sectors of its markets, so this really is the award to win in this industry.

About The Drinks Business: AS EUROPE’S leading drinks trade publication, the drinks business is at the forefront of what is happening in the drinks industry. We are determined to maintain our reputation by reacting to the latest developments and trends, as well as making a contribution to the trade with analysis, debate and opinion. www.thedrinksbusiness.com

Cloudburst Wine. Find us on K119

Cloudburst began with biodynamics before planting the grapes.  There has never been a chemical on the property. Even the vineyard posts are untreated.  Everything is done by hand.  There are no machines.  The vines are own-rooted, non-irrigated, super low yielding, heavily mulched.  They are planted meter by meter – almost unheard of for Australia.  The result is exquisite tasting grapes, the basis of terrific wine. The care taken with viticulture is continued in the making of the wine, with minimal intervention, allowing the full expression of our very special terroir.

Cloudburst is served in some of the best restaurants in the US and Australia and is in the cellars of wine lovers around the world.

DOMAINE VINTUR. Find us on K137

Domaine Vintur is an independent wine producer located on the lower slopes of Mont Ventoux, 33 Km from Avignon. When Graham Shore, a British wine-lover who has lived part-time in Provence for sixteen years, bought Domaine Vintur in 2010, it had been under-managed for several years and certain buildings were in need of renovation; what followed can only be described as a labour of love. The combination of Graham’s passion for both wine and Provence, reflected in the quality and level of restoration conducted. The vineyard now boasts a modern purpose-built winery as well as a state of the art boutique and tasting room.

Our resident winemaker, James Wood, has worked in vineyards across France, Germany, South Africa, New Zealand and England. James’s first vintage at Domaine Vintur, the 2012 Blanc Tradition, won a silver medal at the Concours des Vins of Orange. James then went on to outdo himself at the Concours des Vins AOC Ventoux, winning both a gold medal for the 2011 reserve red wine, Le Gentleman, together with the overall Trophy for the 2012 Blanc Tradition.  We have had further success at the Concours of the following years, winning a further two gold medals and three silver medals from Ventoux, Paris and Orange.

One of the reasons Graham decided upon Domaine Vintur was the vines. Most of the vines on the 12 ½ hectares of land are 30-50 years old, so fully mature. They therefore have the potential to produce complex wines, with subtle but engaging aromas and flavours. The location is ideal for producing high quality fruit, thanks to a combination of Provençal sunshine, mistral winds and limestone/clay soil. The Southern Rhône has a history of wine making dating back to the ancient Greeks, who brought over and planted the first vines, and the Romans, who expanded the vineyards.

Danieli Winery. Find us on K163

Danieli Winery is recent wine producer in the Republic of Georgia and one of the few of a new generation of local wineries applying modern wine production technologies and know-how to the best of Georgian traditional grape varieties.

The roots of Georgian viticulture have been traced back through archaeology to at least 8,000 BC. Georgians were cultivating grapes and burying clay vessels, called kvevris, in which to store their wine for serving at the perfect ground-based temperature. In other words, the World of winemaking started in Georgia!

Danieli Winery grows only traditional Georgian grapes in the Akhmeta region on south-facing slopes near the village of Argokhi. This terroir is famous for the magnificent Kisi grape variety, which is enjoying resurgence after nearly disappearing during the country’s Communist period. Danieli Winery is proud to be revitalizing the modern production of these wines for the world to discover!

Georgian wines have traditional been produced in a large industrial scale aimed at the Soviet markets – or been made locally in smaller village scale in clay jars buried in the ground.  Both methods have given mixed quality results and never been able to be recognized by the increasingly demanding global consumers.

Danieli Winery has a young enthusiastic German educated wine maker with a great sense of quality control, and we have invested seriously in the most modern oenological and viticulture technologies to produce premium red and white wines for the discerned international wine lover.  And the result has gone beyond our expectations!

Our winery is gradually expanding our production – though still keeping our commitment to quality and we are currently offering premium and table wines of the Saperavi, Rkatsiteli, Mtsvane and Kisi varieties.  These varieties have long been recognized the best out of the more than 400 that grow in Georgia.

We are looking for worldwide distributors who will partner with us to join us on this forefront of exciting, high quality Georgian wines.  The initial interest in our wines will probably be in high-end restaurants, wine clubs with a focus of high quality wines and specialty wine shops.

Both the dry and sweet styles of Erbaluce tend to exhibit characteristic apple aromas and flavours.

From this special grape we have been able to produce several types of wine that speak distinct and different languages in and out of the glass.

Tenuta la Parrina is one of the oldest historic farm that lies between the low hills of the Tuscan Maremma in a spectacular landscape with olive trees, wine yards and fields of golden grain. It’s framed in a land of rare beauty: Mount Argentario and the two narrow sand bars called Giannella and Feniglia that cordon off the magnificent Orbetello lagoon. From the Earth to the lagoons, a look at the sea and then back to the ground. The company is spread on an area of ​​about 200 hectares of which about 60 are destined to vineyards, 40 to fruit production, 20 to the horticultural, 22 to the olive plants, and the remaining are divided between arable land and growing nurseries.

Walking through the long avenue of Eucalyptus lies the heart of the company, a small square protected by majestic Plane trees and surrounded by the buildings that now house the Agriturismo rooms, the Restaurant, the company offices and the tiny nineteenth-century church. Within the company there are several Tuscan farmhouses for long and short rentals, the modern winery, the dairy, the nursery and the wildlife reserve. A complex and evocative company with an elegant restraint.

Originally a wedding gift of the Florentine banker Michele Giuntini, the Parrina has belonged to the same family since 1830 and it’s today managed by Dr. Franca Spinola, who dedicates herself since 1979 with great passion to the promotion of respect for biodiversity, the protection and enhancement of this territory.

Landon-Lane/Janssen Family Vineyard. Four Hawk Day. Find us on K115

Our family has been growing grapes in Marlborough’s Waihopai Valley for 23 years, so we are an authentic family vineyard, with a great story behind our name and our wines. The name originates from a family saying based on a ‘hawk spotting’ game the children used to play in the back seat on the way to kindergarten. To see four hawks was a rare and fortuitous occurrence, so we say we hope people have a ‘four hawk day’ when they drink our wine.

Our label is based on a painting our daughter did when she was 10 years old.

The vines are low cropped on only two canes, in an area that features a high diurnal range. These features contribute to the production of wines that feature distinctive fruit flavours balanced with a dry palate.

This is our fourth season with our own label. So far we have focused on the local market. We are now ready to look at establishing an international market, especially for our Sauvignon Blanc, of which we can supply up to 17,000 bottles this year.

Vipavska wines – Slovenia (Faladur d.o.o.). Find us on K132

We are a group of young wine enthusiasts who see a great opportunity in presenting our small, boutique wine region of Vipavska valley, to the export markets.

Slovenia is a boutique country, Vipavska is a boutique wine region and the winemakers we represent are boutique winemakers from Vipavska.

The range of wines we represent comes from fresh, commercially interesting wines, towards more complex and also orange wines. They come from nature friendly winegrowing (some of them organic, some even biodynamic) and limited intervention winemaking.

I’ve long felt that the Vipava valley is a special terroir for exciting wines. The combination of sunny sloping sites, refreshed by cool breezes from the mountainsides give grapes with ripeness and aromatic expression but always with refreshing acidity to give balance.                             By Caroline Gilby MW April 2015

You will find sparkling Cava wines, white and red wines from Rueda, Ribeiro, Rioja, Penedés, Ribera del Duero, Toro and organic wines from Navarra. Our price range goes from 2 to 13€ EXW. At the moment, none of our wines is being imported to the UK and we would like to have representation in one of the most important wine consumption markets in Europe. We do not need to sell large quantities, because our productions are limited. What we need is people as passionated as us in the wine world that believe in small proyects and interested in taking care of our wines in this so interesting market..

Winzerei Zur Metzg. Find us on K167

“Winzerei Zur Metzg” is a Swiss Micro Winery with focus on Pinot Noir from old vines. The grapes come exclusively from top terroir in the north of canton Zurich, near to the German border and only 5 km away (air distance) from the Rhine Falls at Schaffhausen.

The winery was founded 2009 by Patrick Thalmann, a young wine enthusiast and career changer, who has ventured into wine production. The first production facilities were placed in the parent’s garage. 2010, due to lack of space, the winery was moved to an old bucher shop with cool premises for the perfect storage of wine barrels. This has given the name of the winery. “Metzg” = Swiss German for butcher’s shop. After a very intensive tasting the idea was born for the logo with the two crossed meat cleaver.

“2011 Pinot Noir *R*, Winzerei Zur Metzg” ranked no. 52 of “The 99 finest wines of Switzerland” by Schweizerische Weinzeitung (Nov./Dez. 2014); Vinum Wine Guide “The 100 best wineries of Switzerland” (Dec. 2014): on the watchlist, which includes 40 Swiss Wine producers belonging to the extended class of the 100 best Swiss winemakers.
