Addendum Regarding: the 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, As Published by the Society of Wine Educators
Addendum regarding: The 2021 Certified Specialist of Wine Study Guide, as published by the Society of Wine Educators This document outlines the substantive changes to the 2021 Study Guide as compared to the 2020 version of the CSW Study Guide. All page numbers reference the 2020 version. Note: Many of our regional wine maps have been updated. The new maps are available on SWE’s blog, Wine, Wit, and Wisdom, at the following address: http://winewitandwisdomswe.com/wine-spirits- maps/swe-wine-maps-2021/ Page 15: The third paragraph under the heading “TCA” has been updated to read as follows: TCA is highly persistent. If it saturates any part of a winery’s environment (barrels, cardboard boxes, or even the winery’s walls), it can even be transferred into wines that are sealed with screw caps or artificial corks. Thankfully, recent technological breakthroughs have shown promise, and some cork producers are predicting the eradication of cork taint in the next few years. In the meantime, while most industry experts agree that the incidence of cork taint has fallen in recent years, an exact figure has not been agreed upon. Current reports of cork taint vary widely, from a low of 1% to a high of 8% of the bottles produced each year. Page 16: the entry for Geranium fault was updated to read as follows: Geranium fault: An odor resembling crushed geranium leaves (which can be overwhelming); normally caused by the metabolism of sorbic acid (derived from potassium sorbate, a preservative) via lactic acid bacteria (as used for malolactic fermentation) Page 22: the entry under the heading “clone” was updated to read as follows: In commercial viticulture, virtually all grape varieties are reproduced via vegetative propagation. -

Scacciadiavoli Montefalco Sagrantino Passito Tech Sheet
Scacciadiavoli Montefalco Sagrantino Passito COUNTRY ABV Italy 14.5% REGION VARIETALS Wine Umbria Sagrantino Spectator APPELLATION 90 PTS DOCG Montefalco 2012 Sagrantino Passito WINERY Founded in 1884, Cantina Scacciadiavoli, “cast Antonio out the devils”, takes its name from a 19th Galloni century exorcist who lived in the small village 90 PTS bordering the vineyard. He was known to use the wines while performing his exorcist ritual of 2012 ridding poor souls of demons. The estate was built as a complex and modern wine “factory,” which today spans 130 hectares, 35 of which are vineyards. The vines cover a hill in the heart of the Montefalco appellation, divided between the three provinces of Gualdo Cattaneo, Giano dell’Umbria, and Montefalco. The winery consists of four vertical levels built into the hill, allowing for the use of gravity throughout production. The grapes arrive from the vineyards directly at the highest level then move down to the second level by gravity flow to be fermented and vinified in wood or stainless steel vats. The ground and underground floors are used to age the wines. The Pambuffetti family has owned and operated Scacciadiavoli since 1954 and produces annually approximately 250,000 bottles. CULTIVATION In the past the Sagrantino Passito was the only wine produced from the Sagrantino varietal, and TASTING NOTES it was drunk during religious ceremonies in the A great way to end a meal… big red lovers will enjoy villages of the Montefalco area. Although our strong varietal character here but finish sweet. methods have improved and refined passito, its ancient connection to rustic tradition and Montefalco farming lifestyle remains. -
Montefalco Sagrantino
Montefalco Sagrantino Appellation: Montefalco Sagrantino DOCG Area of production: Montefalco, Umbria Harvest / Vintage 2012 Number bottles 13.000 Grapes variety: Sagrantino 100% Altitude: 350 mt above sea level Soil Composition: Mixed structure Tonnes of grape per hectare: 6 Tonnes Plant per hectare: 5000 Pruning technique: Spurred Cordon Vinification: Traditional temperature-controlled on skin Fermentation temperature: 27°C Length of Fermentation and Maceration: 15 days Ageing: 16 months barriques and minimum 8 months in bottle Service temperature: 18 ° C Alcoholic content: 14,5 % Tasting notes: Tenuta Alzatura Sagrantino is the chief result from our venture with Sagrantino di Montefalco that was started a few years ago by the Cecchi family. Viticultural activity in the vineyards is tightly focused on the objective of producing wines of the highest quality. Crop thinning, harvesting by hand, and careful selection before de-stemming allow for the vinification of only the finest grapes. The harvest takes place during the second ten days of October, and after a soft pressing, the grapes undergo fermentation in stainless steel at a temperature of 30 ºC. In the course of fermentation, pumpings over (remontage) and some “racking and returning” (delestage) are used to increase the chromatic intensity and phenolic complexity of the Sagrantino. After racking and malolactic fermentation, the wine is aged in small oak casks for approximately 16 months. Uno has an intense ruby-red color with shades of violet and garnet. The bouquet is refined and complex at the core of which are harmonious aromas of blackberry, plum, vanilla, leather and coffee. On the palate, it is complex and intense, a full bodied wine. -

Presentazione Standard Di Powerpoint
Tenuta Montauto extends for 200 hectares in one of the most suggestive sceneries of the Tuscan Maremma. It is located 10 km from the coast of Capalbio, a proximity that gives important thermal excursions, on clayey hills rich in quartz, at an altitude of 200 m above sea level. • The management of vineyards is organic and harvesting is done by hand: they work the vineyards mechanically, they cut the grass still with hoe and they use sulfites with organic parameters. All the electricity they use comes from renewable sources. They have a maniacal care and attention to bring cleanliness, freshness and enhance the minerality of their wines that are also vegan. One word to describe their wines? "Artisanal." Montauto winery offers the possibility to organize guided tours that allow all wine lovers to get closer to the fascinating world of wine. You will be accompanied in a tour that will start from the winery, where it will be explained the various phases of wine production, from harvesting to vinification, from aging to bottling. At the end of the tour you will be accompanied in the room located above the winery where the tasting of their products will take place. Fancy tasting: Tasting of 4 wines and oil IGP Toscano, all accompanied by platters of typical products. WINE • *ENOS I: Blend of 100% Sauvignon (old vines). To the nose it opens with naturalness and elegance on aromas of exotic fruit (passion fruit) with mineral traces of flint. In the mouth fresh and sharp. • *GESSAIA: 100% Sauvignon. To the nose it initially lets perceive vegetal notes then followed by hints of citrus and enriched by mineral tones.
