  • Aperitivi Wine List Grappa List
    ESTD1988 ◄ GRAPPE ► The origins of Grappa are humble; it was created primarily to avoid wasting the Pomace - the skins, pips, stems and pulp left over from the wine-making process. The root of the word probably comes from words for pomace in the vulgar Latin of Northern Italy such as raspon, grapo, rappe, and graspa, the latter still used by many producers today. ESTD1988 The refinement of grappa from the 1970’s on has developed hand in hand with the evolution of an elegant Italian cuisine and interest in boutique boubons and single-malt whiskies. Today almost every wine produc- er distills his own grappa (or has it distilled for him) often using precisely the same pomace used to make his most notable wine. (See Tignanello, Serpico, Ruggeri Prosecco and Sassicaia on our list). The number of grappas produced today is in the thousands. At Pappardelle we have sourced some of the most distintive grappas encountered over many years of tasting. Some of them are big names like Jacopo Poli, Nonino and Antinori, others less well known but still delicious, distinctive, and good value precisely because of that. ◄ ► 100.

  • New Zealand Country Profile
    New Zealand Country Profile August 2019 A publication BACKGROUND The Polynesian Maori reached New Zealand sometime between A.D. 1250 and 1300. In 1840, their chieftains entered into a compact with Britain, the Treaty of Waitangi, in which they ceded sovereignty to Queen Victoria while retaining territorial rights. That same year, the British began the first organized colonial settlement. A series of land wars between 1843 and 1872 ended with the defeat of the native peoples. The British colony of New Zealand became an independent dominion in 1907 and supported the UK militarily in both world wars. New Zealand's full participation in a number of defense alliances lapsed by the 1980s. In recent years, the government has sought to address longstanding Maori grievances. Geography: Consists of two main islands and a number of smaller islands southeast of Australia. South Island, the larger main island, is the 12th largest island in the world and is divided along its length by the Southern Alps. North Island is the 14th largest island in the world and is not as mountainous, but it is marked by volcanism. Almost 90% of the population lives in cities and over three-quarters on North Island. Wellington is the southernmost national capital in the world. Land area of 268,838 sq km. Economy and Infrastructure: Over the past 40 years, the government has transformed New Zealand from an agrarian economy, dependent on concessionary British market access, to a more industrialized, free market economy that can compete globally. Expanding New Zealand’s network of free trade agreements remains a top foreign policy priority.

  • New Zealand Pinot Noir This Challenging Grape Variety Produces Myriad Styles Across This Small Country, Says Bob Campbell MW
    Panel tasting New Zealand Pinot Noir This challenging grape variety produces myriad styles across this small country, says Bob Campbell MW. The one constant is that quality is continually improving SAUVIGNON BLANC MIGHT pay the bills, but New Zealand’s rising reputation as a fine wine producer is largely due to Pinot Noir. In just a few decades it has gone from experimental to exciting as Kiwi winemakers get the measure of this challenging grape variety. The real miracle is not just how far Pinot Noir quality has grown, but that it continues to grow strongly every year. Pinot Noir vines were first planted in the 19th century but fell victim to phylloxera. The variety returned to Kiwi soil in the 1970s and was put on the map when St Helena’s 1982 Pinot Noir from Canterbury scored a gold medal at a local wine show. A few years earlier, a scientific report noted that Martinborough had a climate that was similar to Burgundy. A few hopefuls including Ata Rangi, Martinborough Vineyards and Dry River bought land and planted Pinot in the alluvial gravel terraces of Martinborough. Other regions soon followed, although high-quality Pinot Noir production is restricted to the southern part of the country from central Hawke’s Bay down to Central Otago. It should be noted that the majority of the Pinot Noir grown in Hawke’s Bay and Gisborne is used in sparkling wine production. Every region from Hawke’s Bay south can make top Pinot. Regional differences are sometimes obvious but can be blurred by vineyard aspect (hillside versus plains), sub-regional variation (cooler Gibbston sites vs Nelson Maggie Map: hotter Bendigo conditions in Central Otago) and, of course, viticultural and winemaking methods.

  • Some Wine Tasting and Food Pairing Suggestions
    WORSHIPFUL COMPANY OF MANAGEMENT CONSULTANTS Virtual Wine Tasting – 12th June 2020 New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc background notes and suggestions for food pairing with thanks to Patrick McHugh and Ann Chapman © June 2020 WCoMC Wine Club Page 1 A bit of background No history of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc wines is complete without understanding the importance of Marlborough and the role of Montana Wines. Montana Wines remains New Zealand’s largest wine producer and is the brand under which the UK was introduced to New Zealand wine during the 1980s. The winery has been so significant throughout New Zealand’s wine history that the Montana name is still used on domestic labelling due to its strong brand recognition. Ivan Yukich (Jukić), a Croatian immigrant planted his first vines in 1934, in Titirangi, situated in the Waitākere Ranges west of Auckland. The first wine was sold in 1944; by 1960 ten hectares (25 acres) of vineyards were planted. Ivan's sons, Mate and Frank, had become involved and they set up the company Montana Wines in 1961. By the end of the 1960s, the company had expanded further, planting vines on land south of Auckland. In 1973, the company expanded into Gisborne and Marlborough and exported its first wines in 1980. Montana was listed on the New Zealand Stock Exchange, initially as ‘Corporate Investments Limited’, and then as Montana Wines. Marlborough is located in the northeast of the South Island. The climate has a strong contrast between hot sunny days and cool nights, which extends the ripening period of the vines. This results in more intense flavour and aroma characters in the wine.
