INTRODUCTION NEW FINDS AND WINES TO LOOK OUT FOR Welcome to the Classic Vintners Wine Portfolio for 2012/13. Other finds to look out for in this year’s Portfolio Chile – Santa Alicia Reserva Sauvignon, Carmenere and a really delicious Malbec. In this year’s Portfolio, we have introduced many new wines that are exclusive to Classic Vintners and also exclusive to Bars, Restaurants and Pubs. Feedback from our customers told us that there was an increasing demand for more premium quality House wines, both traditional varietal wines and also more unusual and interesting varietals that match really well with a wide range of foods. I have selected three new ranges of premium quality House wines, from Spain, Italy and France that I am sure you will find of interest. South Africa – Red & White Rhino varietals from a winery that supports the Save the Rhino International Charity with contributions from its sales of Rhino wines. Also an excellent range from Franschhoek Estate – Shiraz, Merlot & Sauvignon Blanc. Australia – new range from the excellent Grant Burge winery in Barossa - Shiraz, Chardonnay and Rose. France – Pinot Noir and Viognier from Lunes Estates in the Languedoc, a stunning Corbieres from Castelmaure and Picpoul de Pinet from L’Ormarine. Italy – super Barolo from Fontanafredda and delicious Gavi from La Luciana. Spain – full flavoured rich red from Bodegas Lozano in Spain La Mancha. All 3 wines come from the Campo de Borja region in the North of Spain, sitting just below the Rioja region. New Zealand – fine stylish wines from Esk Valley – Campo Castillo Garnacha red – full flavoured red but with soft tannins and ripe fruit flavours. Campo Castillo Viura white – delicious minerally white wine, dry but with excellent fruit flavours and balance. Campo Castillo Garnacha Rose - really fruity rose with lots of strawberry fruit character. I do hope you find plenty of interest in this year’s Wine Portfolio.

Creating the correct wine offer for your outlet is one of the most important things you can do. Your wine choices represent you and your business; the wines you offer should always be chosen with delighting your customer in mind. That’s why at Classic Vintners we provide help and support through all stages of your list. We see it just like building a relationship. 4. Choosing the theme and making initial commitments Once we know the range and pricing that are right for the business we can start to look at the design of the actual list. The look and feel of your wine list is key, lots of customers will interact with it so it’s important that it’s designed with them in mind. We have our own in house design team that enables us to meet your needs and wow your customers, we will have examples of previous lists to share or we can work up a design totally from scratch, don’t worry too much if you don’t have a design degree, again our team are very experienced and will make sure you and your customer get what they want. You can list by country, by grape varietal or even by style. There’s no problem reproducing lists from other printers. 5. The rehearsal and last minute jitters It’s nearly the big day, we will get proofs to you of your list, you can still make last minute changes, maybe a price tweak here and there or an additional wine that your customers have requested can still be included. At this stage, or more usually after a change we can also offer staff training, this will really focus your team on up selling the more profitable wines in your cellar by communicating with customers and recommending wines. 1. The first date Get in touch, and someone from Classic will come and see you at a time to suit you, this will be at your venue. We will chat with you about your business, your customers, your current wine offer, and basically get to know you. In return all we ask is that you put the kettle on! Don’t worry if you have limited wine knowledge, our team have great knowledge, if you do know lots about wine, that’s great too, we love talking about wine. 6. The big day You have your new list, your new wines and 2. The proposal After getting to know you and your business 7. The Anniversary It’s always a good idea to keep refreshing we will make a proposal, don’t order the hat just yet though, there’s still a long way to go! The initial proposal may sound like, would you like me to recommend like for like wines on your existing offer? Would you like us to refresh your list by introducing some new categories and keeping what works, or do you want to work together on building an offer from scratch to really maximise your offer? Often we end up doing a bit of all 3, it’s at this point we start to talk about money! Don’t worry its not going to cost you anything, here’s where we will talk you through the different margin opportunities to think about when doing the list, we do hundreds of lists every year so the team will be able to share lots of best practice and ideas. We have pre designed suggested lists for spicy foods, hotels, wedding venues etc. just to help the process along. your list and after a year that’s exactly what we would like to do, check your margins, check your volumes and look at any changes that will add value to what you do. We look forward to many happy anniversaries with you as our partner. 3. Planning the Wedding A stressful time for many, but not when working with wine, this is when you get to start tasting. If you are unsure about any of the wines the team will taste them with you and give you information on the product and profitability. With your Classic contact you will start to work on the layout of the list, How many bins, red, white, rose split, House selections, by the glass offers, tasting notes, pricing. You will have 100% autonomy over what price you charge, our team will make suggestions about what GP to aim for and what cash per bottle you can command, they will share best practise from other customers on how to make wine more profitable. You will be surprised what a few tips on pricing, layout and selection can do for your bottom line. you’re ready to go! It won’t be the last you see of Classic drinks though, we will continue to call on and support your account taking you through the latest trends and recommending wines of the month that you in turn can recommend to your customer, we will let you know about any additions to our portfolio too. Remember, we don’t have to drink wine, but we choose to do so because it’s enjoyable, you should enjoy selecting your wines and your customers should enjoy drinking them, we should also enjoy being your supplier. Getting your wine right will make a big difference to your cash earnings. Now this is the hard part for a Yorkshire man to say…….the above service is offered free of charge! Enjoy!

Moet & Chandon Brut NV – Champagne Outlet type - City Centre Bar Rose wines Suggested by Jason Kelk, Head of Sales. 6. Linden Hills Zinfandel Rose - USA 7. Villa Calvino Pinot Grigio Rose - Italy Customers in City Centre Bars are not particularly food led, and it’s likely the outlet will sell lots by the glass. The demographic of a City Centre Bar is usually young, so I've gone with lots of New World and trendy but recognisable varietals such as Australian Shiraz, Chilean Merlot, Italian Pinot. For traditionalists I have chosen a great Rioja and a Chablis as well as a great value high margin Prosecco. White wines 1. La Villa Nanni Pinot Grigio/ Gargenaga - Italy 2.

Cava Portecelli Rose - Spain 14. Yves Lallement Brut NV 15. Laurent Perrier Brut NV Outlet type - Asian Food Rose wines Suggested by Mark Rowson, Wine Sales Manager. 7. Grant Burge Benchmark Rose - Australia 8. Rose d Anjou Ackerman - France The best wines for Asian Food outlets are those with moderate levels of alcohol, softer tannin and sometimes off dry in style. It is a question of harmony and balance within the context of hot, sour, salty and sweet food sensations. I have picked a range of wines from our new extensive portfolio which I think will pair well with Asian foods such as, Seifried Estate Gewurztraminer from New Zealand and Viognier from Lunes in the Languedoc.

Due to minimum print runs for labels, we have to apply a minimum order requirement of 200 cases (12 x 75cl) per style, to be taken over a 12 month period. BELOW ARE EXAMPLES OF BESPOKE WINE LISTS DEVELOPED WITH OUR CUSTOMERS Creating a Wine List Most of our customers still plan their wine lists in a traditional manner, listing House Wines first and then their remaining wines by colour and country of origin. This is fine for some consumers but it is not always the most informative way for many, who have limited wine knowledge and no way of knowing whether Bordeaux red from St Emilion is light and fruity or full bodied or whether Chilean Riesling is dry or medium sweet. One answer is to compile your wine list by Wine Style. This is becoming increasingly popular in many restaurants and in particular Gastro Pubs. You can always start with a House Wine section first, if required, with tasting notes as a guide to style – dry crisp white, fruity white etc. The descriptions can be short and simple (dry crisp white) or longer and more precise (herbaceous, aromatic dry white), whatever suites your style. The major benefit of this type of list is that it makes choosing a wine much easier for those customers with only a limited knowledge of wine and makes the whole experience much less of a lottery for them. You could also add a taste guide: Red Wine A Very light, usually fruity. Can be chilled, drink young. B C Easy drinking but with some body. Can be drunk alone or with food. Good body & weight. D E Full-bodied and full flavoured. Can be robust. Very full-bodied can be tannic when young, improves with age. The main body of the list can then be organised by wine style: Light dry white: Chablis, Gavi etc. Aromatic dry white: Sancerre, Pinot Grigio Fruity dry white: Unoaked Chilean Chardonnay Spicy white: Gewurztraminer Fruity medium white: Vouvray Light bodied fruity red: Valpolicella, Merlot Veneto, Beaujolais Medium bodied fruity red: Chilean Merlot Medium bodied oaked red: Rioja Crianza Full bodied spicy red: South African Shiraz, Crozes Hermitage Full bodied complex oaked red: St Emilion Grand Cru, Chilean Reserva, Carmenere White Wine 1 2 3-4 5-6 7-8 9 Bone Dry Off-dry Medium Dry Medium Sweet Sweet Luscious & Honeyed SELECTED HOUSE WINES The Classic Vintners House Wine range is made up of wines that are exclusive to Bars, Restaurants and Pubs.

With a lifetime in wine making, Eric Fabre's career includes eight years as Technical Director of Château Lafite Rothschild, as well as taking a much lesser known Médoc label to the highest accolades in only six years. It was however, a lifelong dream to own a vineyard on the Mediterranean, so 2001 saw Eric and his wife Christine hunting from Perpignan to Nîmes for a high quality terroir. They were quickly seduced by the Château d'Anglès, and what a very understandable temptation! The beautiful ancient stone farmhouse of Château d'Anglès overlooks the vines that slope gently down to the shores of the Mediterranean. Hard really to imagine a more idyllic setting and just as hard to imagine a family more passionately dedicated to the constant improvement of the quality of their wines.

Fruit for Colombo & Fille comes from a selection of the best grapes from the Colombo family vineyards and established growers from some of the most picturesque villages of the Rhône Valley. “Viticultural policy is very much about sustainability and harmony, with respect for nature and the environment. There is absolutely no irrigation - the philosophy being to grow fruit which has experienced a little stress to produce something with character and personality at the end of the day.” 22 High quality wine, full of ripe primary fruits, with a perfect balance and sense of place representing the most beautiful villages of the Rhône Valley are key to all the wines. All the wines are crafted with the utmost care, in a very natural way in order to respect the fruit. The limited production allows perfect control in the winemaking process in small tanks. The objective during the vinification is to preserve the primary aromas of the grapes and to make supple, silky, floral and juicy ripe wines. The use of new oak is limited during maturation to achieve balance and subtlety.

His family has grown grapes in the Barossa since 1855 and winemaking has always been in his blood. Even as a school boy he knew he wanted to make wine. Grant was one of the last apprentice winemakers and did his apprenticeship at the Southern Vales Co-Op in McLaren Vale where after 7 years he had worked his way up from cellar hand to Chief Winemaker. His first vintage was 1970. Grant has achieved renown for all his wines. James Halliday awarded his winery the status of a “Red Five Star Winery” in his 2012 Wine Companion. This translates to “consistently produces wines of exemplary quality” and a “long track record of excellence – truly the best of the best”. For the 5th year running he has just been awarded the Decanter Regional Trophy for his 20 Year Old Tawny, as well as picking up numerous medals in the IWC, IWSC and Decanter Awards. 34 Product Code Product ABV Size 153539 Grant Burge Benchmark Chardonnay 13.5% 75cl BR NEW Taste Suitable for Guide Vegetarians (V) Vegans (VE) 2 AUSTRALIA Elegant well balanced Chardonnay with good weight and rich fruit character.

Every holiday I helped in the winery with bottling and distribution, or often in the vineyard doing all sorts of tasks including hand picking and tractor work. In ‘94 I completed seventh form at Waimea College and applied to Charles Sturt University in Wagga Wagga, Australia to begin a Bachelor of Applied Science (Wine Science). New Zealand and Australian graduates from winemaking courses are highly sought after around the world, this means that it is easy for young winemakers to travel around the world with their work. This type of experience is beneficial for a winemaker as it helps to broaden their views due to different techniques in winemaking which are used around the world. My First “Real” job (away from home) was in Western Australia for 3 months, then Home for Winter, followed by four months in Oregon, USA between July and November, in 2000 I worked in the Yarra Valley (Australia), then in Austria for three months later in the year. In Mid 2001 I took up the winemaking role, which was very daunting, but a role that I thoroughly enjoy. This role allows me a lot of hands on wine making and also travelling to our export destinations to do wine tastings and sales support with distributors. 36 Product Code Product ABV Size Taste Suitable for Guide Vegetarians (V) Vegans (VE) NEW ZEALAND Sales of New Zealand wines have increased rapidly over the past couple of years, due to larger harvests resulting in reduced prices and New Zealand wines being shipped in bulk and bottled in the UK for the first time.
