Follow us @RiojaWine facebook.com/RiojaWines VibrantRioja.com CATALOG COVER CONTEST alvert &oodley We put this year’s catalog cover in your hands and we’re happy to say we received a lot of great entries. We didn’t know who, or how many people would respond, or whether they’d be a new customer or long-time friend. We are thrilled to learn we have so many talented customers! It was a tough decision, but here are our top three choices. Thank you to everyone who entered our contest. And the winner is . Jeff Adamoff Jeff went to American University in DC and used to shop with us prior to the 1982 merger of Calvert and Woodley! He now lives in Carlsbad, California and is the Art Director and Artist at Adamoff Designs. Jeff’s a wine lover who favors a nice, fresh Chardonnay when he’s in the mood for a white, and Pinot Noir when he drinks red. Hopefully he can discover a few new wines with his 1st place prize of a $250 CW Gift Card. When we asked him about the inspiration for his design, he told us, “When I left Callaway Golf as Creative Director I started creating collage art. This was my first attempt at a wine label collage and these are my sister’s favorite wine labels . and Marilyn is always in style.” We congratulate Jeff on winning the contest, and thank him for his beautiful contribution to our 2013 catalog! First Runner-Up Will Winton Will is a long-time Washingtonian (28 years) who now lives in Sewanee, TN. When not working on his art, he works as a Data Analyst. He’s been a CW customer for 25 years, and his family for almost 50! “I have memories of your old place in Cleveland Park where Dad would go to buy his wine.” Will’s favorite wines are Sauternes and New Zealand whites (of all varieties). As for his cover, Will said, “My inspiration for this cover was a trip to my wine cellar. Sitting in the corner were a few bottles waiting to be opened for a party. The light, composition and color caught my artist’s eye, and well, you can see how things came out yourself! I am very excited and honored to be part of CW’s catalog.” Thanks Will, we’re thrilled too. Second Runner-Up Don Sparkman Don is a retired graphic designer in Bristow, VA who now writes novels. He told us his family has been fans of Calvert Woodley for three generations . wow! He loves wine but says he has way too many different favorites to pick just one. His inspiration for the cover was the sophistication of the close-up wine cork in its simplicity on the stark white cover. We agree, as sometimes less truly is more. Thank you Don. 2013 FALL WINE SALE alvert &oodley Welcome to Our 2013 Fall Wine Sale Catalog We must begin by thanking our many loyal customers for their support and patronage of Calvert Woodley, not only this past year but for the roughly 50 years we’ve been in business.

Wine loss refers to loss occurring when the consumer does not consume the wine contained in the bottle and disposes of it because of taste alteration, which is caused by inadequate product protection rendering the wine unpalatable to a knowledgeable consumer.

  • Spirit & Wine Closures
    SPIRIT & WINE CLOSURES COLLECTION INTRODUCTION QUALITY OF OUR CORKS ..............................................6 At Croxsons, we believe that for every bottle, there’s the perfect closure. BARTOP CORKS ....................................................................7 Our closures offer something different. Different styles, different personalities. Everything from bartop and wine corks to PVC, polylaminate and tin capsules, ROPP and GPI screwtops. We can also provide endless WINE CORKS ..........................................................................11 customisation options including varnished wood, printing, metal embossed, highly complex finishes and polished metal. SCREWTOPS ..........................................................................15 And with the right closure in place, you won’t just make your brand stand out from its competitors, you’ll make it stand out full-stop. It’s all part of our family of packaging. ESSENTIAL EXTRAS .............................................................19 William Croxson - Founder 4 5 QUALITY OF OUR CORKS For us, corks may be small in size, but they’re huge in importance. That’s why we prioritise making sure each one is of premium quality. It’s a process that starts with our suppliers seeking out the finest products, so we can source them for our customers. Our suppliers continuously make huge investments in their quality systems which enables us to adhere to the highest standards. MATERIAL To ensure the highest-quality cork, we collaborate with the best cork growers. The freshly harvested cork planks are filtered for superiority, cut into strips, hand-punched to maximise material use and then modified in design to ensure consistency. This process allows us to maintain complete control. And it’s good to know that we also ensure all the excess material is ground up and used for agglomerate corks.

  • Effects of Closure Type on Consumers' Perception of Wine Quality
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Emily M. Jorgensen for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Technology presented on August 12, 2004. Title: Effects of Closure Type on Consumers' Perception of Wine Quality. Abstract Approved: Anna B. Marin Natural corks have long been used as wine closures. However, they are associated with causing multiple adverse effects to the wine they are attempting to preserve. Alternative closures such as synthetic corks and screw caps were developed in order to reduce and/or eliminate these problems. However, the major cause of concern regarding these closures is of consumers' acceptance. The effect of how three types of closures (Natural Cork, Synthetic Cork and Screw Cap) affected wine consumers' perceptions of the quality of wine was examined in this study. This project was divided into two experiments. The first experiment determined if frequent wine consumers could detect sensorial differences between the three closure types. The second experiment ascertained if and how regular wine consumers' perceptions were altered based on the type of closure with which the wine samples were bottled. It was determined that the wine consumers could not significantly detect a difference between any of the three closure type samples based only on sensory stimuli. The results from the second experiment found for the Chardonnay samples, the knowledge that the wine samples came from a natural cork or a synthetic cork did not significantly affect the liking, quality or purchase intent scores. However, when the panelists knew that the sample was bottled with a screw cap, they thought it was of lower quality, were less willing to buy a wine like the sample and they lowered the price they were willing to pay.

  • The Libournais and Fronsadais
    108 FRANCE THE LIBOURNAIS AND FRONSADAIS The right bank of the Dordogne River, known as THE GARAGISTE EFFECT the Libournais district, is red-wine country. In 1979, Jacques Thienpont, owner of Pomerol’s classy Vieux Château Certan, unintentionally created what would become the Dominated by the Merlot grape, the vineyards “vin de garagiste” craze, when he purchased a neighboring plot here produce deep-colored, silky- or velvety-rich of land and created a new wine called Le Pin. With a very low yield, 100 percent Merlot, and 100 percent new oak, the wines of classic quality in the St.-Émilion and decadently rich Le Pin directly challenged Pétrus, less than a mile Pomerol regions, in addition to wines of modest away. It was widely known that Thienpont considered Vieux Château Certan to be at least the equal of Pétrus, and he could quality, but excellent value and character, in the certainly claim it to be historically more famous, but Pétrus “satellite” appellations that surround them. regularly got much the higher price, which dented his pride. So Le Pin was born, and although he did not offer his fledgling wine at the same price as Pétrus, it soon trounced it on the auction IN THE MID-1950S, many Libournais wines were harsh, and market. In 1999, a case of 1982 Le Pin was trading at a massive even the best AOCs did not enjoy the reputation they do today. $19,000, while a case of 1982 Château Pétrus could be snapped Most growers believed that they were cultivating too much up for a “mere” $13,000.
