the b.f.t. 2016 show catalogue
Welcome to the Big Fortified Tasting 2016
This is now the 7th consecutive year that I’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 continues to attract more visitors from the UK and overseas.
Enjoy the tasting at Church House today, but remember to take a breather from time
to time as this year’s line-up is as dizzyingly spectacular as ever!
Once again I 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. As ever, we are indebted to the generic promotional bodies that have
given their support and help establish the b.f.t..
Remember that 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.
On behalf of all our producers and their agents, I warmly welcome you to enjoy
today “the Trade’s favourite wine tasting”.
Finally, I would just like to say a massive thank you to Danny Cameron. This year
Danny has stepped down from organizing the b.f.t. as his involvement with his
excellent new Gin Distillery in Dyfi, Wales (www.dyfidistillery.com) has meant that
he no longer has the time to be involved. Danny was the brainchild of the b.f.t. when
we began in 2010 and without him the b.f.t. would never have existed and the world
of fortified wine would be a poorer place!

In 1927, our grandparents Antonio José y Pilar founded Bodegas Robles in Montilla. Since
then our family has been producing high quality wines from the native grape, Pedro
Ximénez, by following our guiding principles of tradition; respect for the environment
and innovation. Now in the third generation of family ownership, we have returned to
our grandparents’ customs and produce our wines from organically grown grapes.
In 1999 we launched our first range of certified organic wine PIEDRA LUENGA. Our
organic vineyards retain soil fertility and avoid synthetic chemicals and GMs. We ensure
that indigenous yeasts are preserved before starting the pressing and “criadera y solera”
system. In 2008 we launched our organic vinegars, followed in 2013 by our brand new
range of vegan certified food products: jellies, jams and wine reductions. Ours is the first
winery in Spain to certify CO2 emissions with an annual commitment to reduce these
levels to a minimum. “Best Organic Company in Spain 2014”.

top quality, traditional aged Sherry. This winery was founded in the last decade of the last
century to give continuity to the oldest family tradition in winemaking in Jerez. Its roots

wines bottled today as Bodegas Tradición had a worldwide recognized brand name: J.M
Rivero-CZ.
Bodegas Tradición focuses on the purest styles of Sherry; non chill filtered, non stabilized,
with no additives where portions of history can be enjoyed in a wine glass. Wines ranging
from 25 to 45 years of average age, carefully selected and hand bottled in numbered

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 Familiar and Almacenista ranges were not special enough, we would also
like to draw your attention to these truly wonderful VORS wines.

Situated in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, the winery was founded by Domingo Pérez Marín in
1852.
Since 2007 it has been part of Grupo Estevez Jerez, joining other members of the group,
Valdespino and Real Tesoro.
From 1526 until mid 19th Century, the building that is currently the Winery headquarters
was the site of the most important hospital in Sanlúcar run by the Dominican religious
order. The Bodega is situated in the Barrio Alto, the highest point of the city, receiving
the humid western winds from the sea which are essential to the ageing of this unique
wine.
La Guita is entirely produced from Palomino grapes grown in Pago of Miraflores, a plot of
vineyards in Sanlucar with a very special terroir which provides this Manzanilla with its
personal style. Today La Guita is the undisputable national market leader and has
conquered the palate of international consumers around the world.

The history of one of today's largest Sherry houses dates back to 8th March 1760, when
King Carlos III of Spain wrote a letter officially appointing His Excellence, Don Joaquin
Manuel de Villena, lieutenant-general of the Spanish Royal Armada, as the 'Marques del
Real Tesoro'.
This title was bestowed on Don Joaquin by the King as reward for his victory when his
fleet was attacked by pirate ships. In order not to lose any Crown treasure that his ships
were carrying, Don Joaquin used silver from his own inheritance order to make
munitions.
In 1897, the title of Marques Del Real Tesoro, which was left unspoken for, was bestowed
by King Alfonso XIII, to the grandson of the first Marques, who founded a brand name
after his title Marques Del Real Tesoro.
With the Sherry reserves, stored two centuries beforehand by His Excellence, Mr. Conde
of Villacreces who kept an extensive wine cellar with the most select Sherry wines of
Jerez, originating from the 'Soleras' that today carry the prestigious name around the
world of Marques Del Real Tesoro.

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 Moors in 1264.
Today the Bodega belongs to the Estevez family, who have preserved the boutique
philosophy of this highly reputed Sherry House. Valdespino is today one of the very few
bodegas currently producing single vineyard Sherries and their Pago Macharnudo
provides the grapes for their single vineyard wines, which include the Fino ‘Inocente‘, the
‘Amontillado ‘Tio Diego‘ and the Palo Cortado ‘Viejo CP. Valdespino is also renowned for
their VOS (Very Old Sherries) with over 20 years of ageing and VORS (Very Old Rare

A long-established producer of fine Brandy de Jerez and PX, Fernando de Castilla was
revitalised in 1999 by Jan Pettersen, a Norwegian with a passion for top quality sherry
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
range of intensely pure and complex single solera Sherries whose award winning
packaging makes them even more impressive.

This important Douro Estate was the last great achievement of Dona Antónia Adelaide
Ferreira, the legendary great Lady of the Douro, and the only property that was totally
planted by her, on 270 hectares of barren common land purchased from the town council
of Vila Nova de Foz Côa in 1877.
It is now owned by her great-great grandson Francisco Javier de Olazabal, formerly
president of the Port and Douro Wine Company A.A. Ferreira, to whom the grapes of the
property used to be sold. In 1998 he decided to resign in order to develop its own
winemaking project under the technical direction of his son, Francisco de Olazabal y
Nicolau de Almeida.

SEEKING DISTRIBUTION
The van Zeller’s family began to produce wine and port wine in early 18th century. In the
19th century, it was conferred the title of Barão de Vilar (Baron of Vilar) to the ancestors
of Fernando van Zeller, who bares the title in present time, and Álvaro van Zeller, the
Winemaker. To perpetuate the family wine tradition, promote the winemaking legacy –
knowledge and techniques that were improved throughout centuries – and the vineyards
planted traditionally on schistous soil in the hills of Douro, the oldest demarcated region,
the offspring decided to found the company Barão de Vilar, Vinhos SA with the office in
Vila Nova de Gaia and the wine production centres in Douro Region.
According to this, the Barão de Vilar Port wine and Douro wines are unique by its
winemaking process, allying the tradition with technology, and the focusing on quality
instead on quantity, creating top quality wines.

My wine trade career began in the early sixties with G F Grant in EC3. I joined John Grant
selling Chateaux Bottled Claret and Vintage Port, spent four months in Bordeaux with
Louis Eschenauer, and took the Pâques Course of Oenology with Emile Peynaud in 1964.
I had my own company in the 1970’s, worked with other reputable companies, and
eventually ran the Specialist Wine Division of IDV from Brick Street.
Having been responsible for the Croft Vintages of 1982 & 1985, I got to know Roeda and
the Croft team extremely well. In 2001, at Alimentaria in Lisbon, John Burnett
suggested I took on the historic brand of “Dixon’s Double Diamond”. I now own the
brand which is vinified by the Fladgate Partnership at the exquisite Quinta de Roeda.
Dixon’s Double Diamond is gaining a well- deserved reputation over the country. It’s now
here for your appraisal.

The Curatolo family has been producing Marsala for well over a century, in fact they are
the oldest Marsala house in family ownership. The stunning labels were designed by
Ernesto Basile, a famous architect in Palermo in the latter part of the 19th Century. This
year they have introduced to their portfolio a new fortified wine, Zibibbo Liquoroso Vito
Curatolo Arini, made exclusively from “Zibibbo” grapes, Sicilian name for Muscat
d’Alexandria. The Curatolos also produce the Curatolo Arini wines from their family
winery.

Fortifieds are among Australia’s most unique and interesting wines, and until the 1960s,
this category accounted for 80% of the Australian wine industry. Nowadays it’s a small
but really compelling part of the Australian wine offering.
Australia is best known for its classic Muscats and Tokays from the Rutherglen region.
These age brilliantly and are among the world’s greatest fortified wines. A while ago
there was a name change for these wines: Tokays made from the Muscadelle grape now
either go under this varietal name, or under the new name of Topaque, and the previous
Sherry styles are now known as Apera.
In 2009 a strategy paper was produced in Australia to encourage a perception change
amongst consumers through strong trade endorsement and a dual on- and off-premise
focus, including cellar door trade, to halt the decline in fortified wine consumption and
generate growth in premium fortifieds. Key activities to achieve this include category
knowledge development (customers and consumers), a targeted communications
strategy (new consumers) and adoption of a portfolio marketing hierarchy that
maximises opportunities from adopting the two new names, Apera and Topaque.

Bovey Wines was established in 1987 as a partnership between Geoffrey and Pamela
Cole after visiting the premises of Pereira D'Oliveira. This family company has a unique
portfolio of rare old Madeira wines dating back to 1850, and is one of only six producers
on the island.
Our target market is principally high quality independent wine retailers, merchants and
high quality restaurants and hotels.
The business has grown by virtue of promotional activity, with tastings at wine fairs and
by personal visits and private tastings throughout the country, and by regular personal
contact with customers. In store tastings are arranged for those retailers who wish to
stage promotions.
In 2009 Geoffrey and Pamela’s daughter and son in law, Lesley and Tim Adams became
partners in the business, thus ensuring its continuity. The current stock comprises a total
of 63 different wines, from 3 years old to over 150s year old. Wines from the 19th Century
are available by special order.

For 200 years, Blandy’s Madeira has been synonymous with quality Madeira Wine.
The Blandy’s are unique in being the only family of all the original founders of the
Madeira wine trade to still own and manage their company. The family has played a
leading role in the development of Madeira wine throughout its long history and in the
economic development of this remote Atlantic Island. Members of the family continue to
live on Madeira, maintaining a tradition that goes back to 1811.
Blandy’s Madeira remains totally dedicated to the traditions, care, and craftsmanship of
Madeira Wine making and has been owned by the same family for 200 years over seven
generations. Michael and Chris Blandy are the 6th and 7th generations of the family to
work in the family business.

recognised as great classical Madeiras. In 1992 the building of new premises provided
suitable means for meeting the current demands of the markets. The fact that it is the

production. The company uses the most recent technical innovations but maintains the

"As with wine, the key to great chocolate starts with the finest ingredients. Great beans make great chocolate.
Until recently it’s been to source premium cocoa beans. But now, thanks to pioneering farmers and growers,
some of the world’s best beans are being made available to a select and growing group of talented chocolate
makers who are crafting their bars using small specially developed small batch roasters, winnowers, conches and
tempering machines.
Tasting these bars is like tasting chocolate in technicolour. They are a true expression of the cocoa bean.
At Cocoa Runners, we seek to offer our customers the world’s best single estate, craft chocolate. To that end
we’ve tasted over 5000 bars and selected over 500 from 60 makers to retail and distribute. As with fine wines,
customers look for guidance and support to find the right chocolate bar. To meet this need we’ve designed “Craft
Chocolate Galleries” (where customers can choose by chocolate type, flavour profile and region), staff training
materials, counter-top displays and many other tools to support partner retailers."
