b.f.t. 2014 show catalogue - The bft The Big Fortified Tasting

Transcription

Welcome to the Big Fortified Tasting 2014
This is now the 5th consecutive year that we’ve staged the b.f.t.; a testament to the
importance with which this event is regarded by both exhibitors and visitors alike.
Each year the show has attracted even more visitors from the UK and overseas, so
many, in fact, that we have had to move to larger premises. We hope you enjoy our
new home this year at Church House and that this will allow you to taste around
these wonderful wines with greater ease.
Having been awarded the International Wine Challenge Generic Campaign of the
Year in 2013, we would like to congratulate and thank all our supporters: the
producers, their agents, retail buyers, sommeliers and opinion formers, who have all
come together to make this, undoubtedly, the most significant tasting of Fortified
Wines in the world. We are also indebted to the generic wine bodies that have given
their support and help establish the b.f.t. both in the past and this year too.
Today you will find some 60 or so of the most famous and renowned names in the
category and over 330 staggeringly brilliant wines on the tasting floor.
In addition, if you have pre-registered, we have five tutored tastings led by some of
the greatest names in the business. These will be taking place throughout the day in
the Bishop Partridge Hall and the Hoare Memorial Hall, please ask at reception for
more details.
Whether you are here today to buy, learn, or write, we hope you enjoy the
environment and leave more fortified than ever with ideas.
On behalf of all our producers and their agents, we warmly welcome you to the
embarrassment of riches which is here on show today.

Bacalhôa Wines, which was founded in 1922 under the designation João Pires & Sons, has
developed over the years into one of the most innovative wine producers in Portugal
today. The company started out in wine production using grapes from the Palmela
region. It was during the 1970's that a new driving force turned the company around,
through the introduction of the latest modern technologies, both in terms of viticulture
and oenology. This brought Bacalhôa Wines to the forefront of national top quality wineproducing companies.

Juan Sánchez de la Torre founded the company in 1781 in Jerez to produce fine wines. Two hundred
twenty five years later Sánchez Romate is one of the oldest bodegas in Spain and one of the few that
remains in family hands. This has allowed it to maintain its independence and continue making wines in
the same time-honoured fashion. Over the years their quality has been rewarded with appointments to
the House of Lords and the Vatican.
To ensure quality from vineyard to bottle Sánchez Romate not only owns its own vineyards—in the best
albariza soil areas of Jerez—but also has invested in some of the most modern facilities in the region—
all of which are still housed in the bodega buildings located in central Jerez. These traditional cellars with
their high ceilings keep temperatures stable and allow the natural yeasts to circulate while the sand
floors keep the humidity at the correct levels.
The ageing process is through traditional criaderas and soleras with 500 litre American oak casks filled to
five-sixths and arranged in layers of three to four. The company produces three different ranges of
sherry, from the classic Romate range to the Reservas Especiales through to La Sacristía—the company’s
oenological treasures.

Jesús Barquin and Eduardo Ojeda are friends with a very strong interest in Jerez. Jesús is
an academic working at the University in Granada and a critic on food and wine, while
Eduardo is the technical director of Grupo Estevez (Valdespino, Real Tesoro, La Guita etc)
and they in turn have a number of friends, not just in Spain, with a similar interest in
great wines from Jerez. This small informal group, choosing to benefit from Eduardo’s
and Jesús’s knowledge of and contacts in the Jerez world selected wines from individual
barrels (Bota) for their own enjoyment. They would select a barrel of Manzanilla or
Amontillado, draw off a certain volume, bottle it and distribute it amongst
themselves. One or two of the friends had the idea that it would be a good idea to be
able to offer these rare and exceptional wines to the top restaurants in Spain and so the
hobby became a little more commercial.

One of the oldest and most prestigious wine and spirit producers in Spain, Osborne was
founded in 1772 by Thomas Osborne Mann, with the initial purpose of supplying sherries
to Great Britain. The company remains 100% family owned, now by the 7th generation.
The company logo, the distinctive black silhouette of a bull is dotted throughout the
country, and in 1997, the Spanish Supreme Court decreed that it had become an
indispensible part of the Spanish landscape, and declared it part of the national heritage.
1. Amontillado 51-1a, 30 Year Old VORS
The "51 Primera" is named after its solera. A complex combination of fruits - raisins and figs, primarily - and savoury
components such as chestnuts, dark bread, and baking spices are accented with a delicate briny note. This sherry unwinds
into a long, warm finish.
ABV: 15%
2. Capuchino Palo Cortado, 30 Year Old VORS
This has been naturally concentrated by evaporation during long barrel ageing and has developed extraordinary intensity.
Palo Cortados are rare wines with the fragrance of an Amontillado and the body of an Oloroso. Strong aroma of hazelnuts
and a slight fragrance of oak. Full bodied, balanced and dry, with a lengthy finish.
ABV: 20%
3. Sibarita Oloroso, 30 Year Old VORS
This is an extraordinarily concentrated, intensely aromatic Sherry which magically combines finesse with power. Swallow the
wine and the flavour persists for an age. It is produced by Osborne who have some of the most venerable soleras of all. A
superior aperitif with which to whet your appetite for those hearty winter meals.
ABV: 20%
4. Venerable Pedro Ximenez, 30 Year Old VORS
Made by raisining pedro ximénez grapes and partly fermenting the sticky juice, this ebony-coloured, treacly-textured wine is
the quintessence of raisins and dried figs. In Jerez they pour a tablespoon over vanilla ice cream. The contrasting black and
white colours, warm and cold temperatures, sweet and creamy textures are fantastic.

A long-established producer of fine Brandy de Jerez and PX, Fernando de Castilla was

and 15 years experience at Osborne. After taking over the cellars of the Sherry shipper
Jose Bustamante, located next door to the main bodega, Jan quickly established
Fernando de Castilla as masters of the production and ageing of fine, unblended,
untreated Sherries. The bodega's reputation is based on the excellence of the Antique

SEEKING DISTRIBUTION
Army commandant Mr. Rafael Cruz Conde founded the Cellar in 1902 to produce Fino,
Oloroso, Palo Cortado, Amontillado and Pedro Ximenez wines of the Montilla-Moriles
Origin Denomination using Pedro Ximenez grapes.
Since its creation, an important organization developed to control the total viticulture
cycle from the culture of the best vines, the elaboration of the grape musts, the
maturation in American oak barrels using the traditional system of “Solera” and
“Criaderas”, and, finally the bottling and commercialisation. Around 1930, the founder
created La Cordobesa Distilleries as a complement to the wine-making activity. The range
of wines is fortified with top-quality brandies distilled in our centenary pot stills.

Emilio Lustau has always placed absolute quality ahead of volume considerations and
thus stand apart from the bland, mainstream wines that many of the large sherry brands
promote today. Producing a full range of styles, from clean, pure, bone-dry Finos through
to resplendent, unctuous essences such as PX, Lustau never fail to provide us with
Sherries of the very highest quality.
Lustau pioneered the concept of Almacenista bottlings – choosing specific lots from the
warehouses of small independent Sherry maturers and bottling them separately. The key
to quality with Sherry is less where and how the vines are grown but rather where and
how the Sherries are matured.
As if the Solera Reserva and Almacenista ranges were not special enough, we would also
like to draw your attention to these truly wonderful VORS wines.

The family name comes from the small city of Moelln in northern Germany, deriving from
the word “Burgomestre”, meaning head of the municipality.
At the end of the 18th century, Henry Burmester junior established a new port wine
company alongside his two sons, Frederick and Edward - H.Burmester & Sons.
In 1834, in the absence of any direct descendants, Johann Whilhem Burmester, a distant
relative living in Hamburg, was invited to take over the running of the Port Wine

With a history of almost 5 centuries, Kopke is the oldest Port Wine brand.
The Kopke House was founded in 1638, in Porto, by the Germans Christiano and Nicolaus
Kopke, becoming C.N Kopke & Cª, Lda in 1841.
Over time, the family developed the Port business, and Nicolau Kopke and Joaquim
Augusto Kopke, decisive in distinct epochs, left their mark on Port Wine history, being an
active part of the development of the cities of Porto and Vila Nova de Gaia. Kopke is the
market leader in the Colheita category in various countries around the world, such as the
United States, Denmark, Holland and Portugal.

The name Barros is a reference point in the history of Port Wine.
It was established in 1913 by Manuel de Almeida, and since then it has achieved an
uncontested reputation for the quality and range of its Port Wines.
Years later, Manuel de Almeida Barros became an associate in the firm, changing its
designation to Barros, Almeida & Cª. In June 2006, Porto Barros was integrated into the
Sogevinus Group, now responsible for the strategy of consolidating and growing the
brand in international markets. Barros celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2013.

Founded in 1859 by António Alves Cálem, Porto Cálem remained in the same family for
four generations and has always paid great attention to the production of Port Wines of
quality, resulting in recognition by the entire Wine Sector. Its origin is linked to the export
of wine to Brazil in exchange for exotic wood, with its own fleet - the symbol is still
present in the company’s logo: the Caravel.
In the beginning of the 20th century a Cálem representative went to Holland on business.
He brought back a painting, which can be seen today hanging on the wall at the
company’s headquarters in Vila Nova de Gaia, of three men drinking a glass of Port wine.
They were 3 Old Friends, with 3 different professions: a pharmacist, a lawyer and a judge,
who used to gather at the end of each day to drink a glass of Cálem Port Wine. This has
since become an emblematic image for Cálem and is used on the label of its Old Friends
brand.

The Alves de Sousa family have produced wines in the Douro for 5 generations. In the
pursuit of finding the best expression of a vineyard, Alves de Sousa only use grapes from
the family’s estates. The Alves de Sousa family is proud to present a very distinct line up
of Douro & Port wines – expressing the unique character of the vineyards and reflecting
all the work, care and great respect for the Douro, with Alves de Sousa’s very personal
touch.
The quality and singularity of the wines have been widely recognized with distinctions
and mentions in the most acclaimed national and international publications, with a very
special highlight for the "Producer of the Year" award presented in 1999 and again in
2006 by the most important Portuguese Wine Magazine (“Revista de Vinhos”), becoming
the first in the history to receive twice the most coveted and prestigious distinction for
Portuguese wine producers.

Founded in 1880 by Adriano Ramos-Pinto, this famous house was taken over in 1990
when Champagne Louis Roederer became the majority shareholder. Their four quintas
provide the majority of grapes in order to have maximum control over the quality of their
port wines and thereby maintaining their philosophy of controlling all stages of
production.
The house has carried out extensive research into vine varieties for Port production and
their findings have been accepted as the official recommendations by the authorities.
Ramos Pinto also pioneered the study and use of vertical planting - which has since led to
mechanisation of the vineyards.

Valdespino is one of the oldest and very few family-owned bodegas in Jerez, with a
history of Sherry producing going back six centuries. Alfonso Valdespino was one of 24
knights who fought for the city of Jerez with King Alfonso X, against the Arabs in 1264. As
a reward for his efforts he was given land in the Jerez region. Today Valdespino belongs
to the Estevez family, and they own 750 hectares of their own vineyards in Jerez, which is
rare in this region, and allows them close control over grape quality. Their Pago
Macharnudo vineyard provides the grapes for their single vineyard wines, which include

Quinta da Romaneira was bought in 2004 by a group of friends including Christian Seely,
who is known for his experience running the renowned Quinta do Noval. Since arriving in
the Douro in the 1990s, it had been Christian‘s dream to own Quinta da Romaneira and
restore the property to its former glory. The estate is situated in the Cima Corgo district,
in the heart of the Douro Valley. The superb location, along two kilometres of the Douro
River, provides ideal conditions for the production of high quality wines, both dry and
fortified, from local varieties. All the vineyards for the reds are classified ‘A’ Grade;
aromatic white varieties are grown at high altitude for Romaneira’s delicious dry white
wine.

The Quinta do Infantado wines and Ports are grown, made and bottled at the Quinta
(Estate), located in Pinhão at an altitude of 150m above sea level in the Cima Corgo, the
Douro sub-region known for making the best Ports and dry wines. This winery was
established in 1816 by D. Pedro IV, the Portuguese crown heir, as a place where they
could collect taxes, which were then paid in grapes or wine. This is the origin of the
Quinta’s name: Infantado derives from Infante, the Portuguese for Prince. The Roseira
family has owned Quinta do Infantado for over a century. Joao Roseira looks after the
vineyards and oversees the winemaking and his sister-in-law Paula looks after the
marketing of their wines.

Dandelion Vineyards is a fusion of vineyards and vignerons working with old vineyards
and artisan winemaking. Zar Brooks and his winemaker wife Elena have teamed up with
vignerons Brad Rey and Carl Lindner to produce a range of wines from their favourite
vineyards in key regions in South Australia. Their aim is to nurture the character of the
vineyards and express the terroir in the wines. As James Halliday states in his 2011
Australian Wine Companion, "It may be a dauntingly competitive marketplace, but there
can be few more promising new ventures than this one". The vines for this rare XO Pedro
Ximenez have an average age of 30 years. Vigneron Carl Lindner`s family have being
growing PX and producing the fortified wine there since 1944.

Domaine Cazes is situated in Rivesaltes in the Roussillon. With 220 hectares of vines
planted, Domaine Cazes is the largest certified Organic and Biodynamic estate in France.
It was founded in 1895 by Michel Cazes and the wines are still made by the fourth
generation of winemakers, headed up by Emmanuel Cazes. The family make a range of
interesting dry wines alongside the regional specialities, Vin Doux Naturels. They took the
decision to move to organic and biodynamic viticulture in 1997. Based on their view that
the natural environment needs natural preparation, they plough the soils and use only
natural ingredients as treatments, arranging their work according to the lunar calendar.

Jean Batlle developed his love for grape growing and winemaking while following his
father around in the vineyards at a young age. Today, his son Nicolas works with him and
is responsible for winemaking. Father and son purchased an old domaine in 1999 and
renamed it Mas de Lavail, located at the foothills of the Pyrenees, below the Cathar
Château de Quéribus. The family has seven hectares of vineyards of old vine Grenache
Noir for Maury Vin Doux Naturel, between 40 and 50 years old, planted at 150-250
metres altitude. Grapes are handpicked, followed by individual berry selection for perfect
ripeness being careful to discard raisined berries at the winery in order to keep the fresh
fruited style of this Maury VDN.

Marc and Thierry Parcé have been bottling their wines since 1984, but the vineyard
has been in their family for generations passed down from their great grandmother.
The method of vinification depends on the vineyard : there are over thirty different
vineyards, all with different exposures to the sun and altitude (ranging from 0-400
metres). The main variety is Grenache Noir, used for Banyuls, together with a little
Syrah, Carignan and Mourvèdre used in making their different cuvées of Collioure.

Axe Hill is on a remote site on the outskirts of Calitzdorp in the Klein Karoo Wine Region.
The area has been acclaimed for its fortified wines for a number of years. The unique
micro-climate prevalent in the region is typically characterised by dry, arid conditions
which add to the overall concentration of true Portuguese varietals. The name of the
vineyard originates from the stone hand tools found on the farm and used by pre-historic
man over a quarter of a million years ago. Only one vintage is made each year from a
blend of the traditional Portuguese varietals Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca and Souzão.
The wine is matured in old 500 litre French oak barrels after hand sorting and foot
crushing in lagares for maximum extraction of both flavours and colour. This method
closely resembles traditional Portuguese port wine making techniques which have been in
use for centuries.

La Rosa is a family-owned and run Quinta near Pinhão, a prime Port-producing area in the
Cima Corgo region of the Douro in Northern Portugal. La Rosa has always produced
fantastic port but, since the 1990s, the Bergqvist family has also been pioneers in the
development of red Douro table wines. The arrival of Jorge Moreira as winemaker in
2002 has seen a marked improvement to the already very good quality of the wines,
made from a great diversity of terroir and microclimate across their 55 hectares, which
produce top-notch port and table wine, all entirely produced and aged at La Rosa.

freshness and clarity of fruit from the outset, whilst still ensuring the right balance of
acidity and extraction for long ageing.

Wine & Soul belongs to Sandra Tavares da Silva and Jorge Serôdio Borges, both
winemakers and a couple, who in 2001 decided to make a wine together. Pintas is the
result of that, made from a 80 year old southern-exposure vineyard with more than
30 different indigenous grape varieties. In 2003 the first Pintas Vintage Port was also
made and in 2004 the first Guru White wine was made from a 44 year old vineyard with a
field blend of Viosinho, Códega, Rabigato and Gouveio. In 2009, Quinta da Manoella was
added to Wine & Soul portfolio. This property was established in 1838 by Vieira de Sousa
family (ancestors of Jorge Serôdio Borges) and has belonged to the same family for
five generations.

D’Arenberg is one of the most significant wineries in McLaren Vale. Founded in 1912 by
Joseph Osborn; fourth generation Chester Osborn took over the reins as Chief
Winemaker in 1984.
The last decade has seen Chester develop a range of white wines every bit as individual
and thrilling as the red Rhone varieties with which the company made its name. There is
method to his madness (and his shirts!) and no one knows their soils and vines better
than Chester.
Chester works with individual parcels of fruit that display different flavour profiles that
are influenced by the unique soil characteristics that contribute complexity to the final
blend.
Chester’s philosophy is to make wines which have great fragrance, fruit palate texture
and length. The finish of the wine must have a natural, fine balance of acidity and a
complex structure of tannins.

The Campbell family winemaking heritage began in 1870 when Scotsman John Campbell
made his first wine from the Bobbie Burns vineyard. Following a severe outbreak of
phylloxera and determined to maintain the business, John’s son David introduced
phylloxera resistant American rootstocks and by 1930 eighteen hectares of vines were
flourishing. The fifth generation of the Campbell family, brothers Colin and Malcolm have
maintained the commitment to quality and growth and today there are about sixty four
hectares under vine. Campbell’s is one of the inaugural members of the Australian First
Families of Wine, created in 2009. www.campbellswines.com.au

Stanton & Killeen is just a few years older than Campbells having been founded in 1864
by Englishman Timothy Stanton. Of their 300 hectare mixed farm around 30 hectares of
the best draining soils are planted to vines. Famed in particular for their fortified wines
their Muscats tend to be a richer style, showing intense dried fruit, fig and fruit cake
character. This is partly due to the original vineyards, planted by Jack Stanton in 1921,
which are still in production today and produce some of the finest fruit in the region.
