Company Mission, Vision and Value Siam Winery Corporate Profile Siam Winery was founded in 1986 by Chalerm Yoovidhya with his vision to offer consumers wine as a healthy alcoholic drink, and to become Asia’s leader in wine and wine beverages in harmony with our partners, the society and the environment. He had the clear and strong aim to build a Thai wine culture. Chalerm knew that in order to sell wine in the Thai market, he needed to slowly adjust the fermented taste of wine to the Thai palate. Thus, SPY Wine Cooler was born. With sales today of more than 100 million bottles per annum, SPY is a deeply and positively established brand, and the most popular alcoholic beverage amongst women in Thailand. During the late 1990s Siam Winery rapidly developed its still wine business, culminating with the launch of Monsoon Valley in 2002. These wines are quintessential New Latitude Wines. Award winning Monsoon Valley wines now focus on international varietals, thriving in tropical conditions, grown at Siam Winery’s Hua Hin Hills Vineyard, the first and only vineyard in Prachub Kiri Khan province located two and a half hour south of Bangkok. Siam Winery has opened the vineyard's doors to welcome visitors to a unique wine tourism experience, where they can indulge in the exciting allure of New Latitude Wines and will also be able to learn about tropical viticulture from Siam Winery’s professional team. Siam Winery’s state-of-the-art winery in Samut Sakhon province is located just an hour from Bangkok. The local winemaking team is lead by an energized and experienced German winemaker, Kathrin Puff, as well as tropical viticulture and winemaking consultants from Germany. Together they work at the highest level of professionalism to guarantee world-standard winemaking as well as the best possible quality in every bottle of Siam Winery’s premium wines. Apart from establishing and promoting the best of Thai products, Siam Winery is also continually looking to expand its portfolio through the import of the highest quality products. In early 2010, World of Wines™, a selection of award-winning wines imported by Siam Winery, was launched, together with the introduction of Siam Winery’s “Wine Wheel Selector”, designed to educate consumers on how to best pair the right wines with the right food. At Siam Winery we continue to invest in the future, planting top quality grapevines on several hundred acres of land, as well as working with our local contract farmers so as to enable us to offer an array of quality brands to consumers, now and in the future. Export With the vision to build a wine culture in the Asian market, Siam Winery first launched exports from Thailand in 1998, and has continuously expanded its international business, and is now exporting to 28 countries including the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan and several markets in Asia. Today Siam Winery is the leading wine beverage producer in Asia, with the established leading RTD in ASEAN. In 2013, with its continuing aim to achieve the above vision, Siam Winery has grown its international market as it launches products in China and Indonesia.

We have put out this shorter newsletter a bit earlier than usual to allow you to order special packs for Christmas. You will need to get your orders in straight away, however, because delivery firms get very busy around this time and deliveries always take longer. For this month only we have a special Christmas pack of one dozen specially selected wines to get you through the holiday season for which there is a 20% discount. We also have a 6 pack of sparkling wines, something it’s always important to have in the fridge over the holidays.. There is also a pack of what we have called On the Fringe wines. These have all been unfiltered and unfined and with no additions expect for one or two that have had tiny amounts of sulphur added. These are wines that are distinctly different. We are also delighted to offer a pack of wines that all come in under 12% alcohol this month as well as another pack of wines made from obscure grape varieties. We are finding more and more customers are asking for something different. And the final pack has only two bottles in it, but they are the two top cuvées from Loire Valley icon Jean-Pierre Robinot. We haven’t been able to offer these wines to our retail customers before as they are always snapped up by the trade, but we have managed to hold a few back this shipment.

Family owned since 1867, Bodegas Langa produce excellent wines from grapes of up to 100 years old. Their Pl tinto and Pl blanco wines are outstanding. Striking here is the innovative design of the wine bottles sporting the mathematical symbol Pi as a reference to the vineyard’s 3.1415 hectares – where the autochthonous grape variety Consejon has been cultivated for over 80 years now.

  • In Association With
    In association with... Welcome to the 2019 Real Wine Fair! The Real Wine Fair is an independent festival of natural growers and winemakers, comprising those who work organically and/or biodynamically and with few or zero interventions in the winery. That said, real wine is relative rather than an absolute or precise term and embodies a certain spirit of endeavour in the vineyard and the winery. We understand that each grower has a highly specific approach; we should celebrate those differences. Real wines tend to be made in small quantities by artisan or independent producers who work without chemicals (which means no artificial fertilisers, pesticides or herbicides) in low yielding vineyards and then vinify without artificial yeasts or enzymes, or recourse to acidification or other adjustments. Many are made with only tiny amounts of added sulphur and some with none at all. ‘Nowt taken out and nowt put in’, as the saying goes. The motivation is to rediscover the true flavour of wine by capturing the sense of place (terroir) and the very nature of the vintage. These wines are individual, hand-crafted, thrilling and unpredictable. They remind us that wine can be a living thing rather than a denatured product and that less intervention means more real flavour. This booklet contains details of hundreds of wines from many countries around the world presented by growers and winemakers who have stories to tell. We hope you enjoy these wines as much as we do. And if you want to buy a bottle or several, or order something you have tasted at the fair there is a pop-up shop by the entrance of the main hall! And wine is only part of the Fair.

  • Master Wine List 2020
    WINE BOUTIQUE WINE SELECTION WHY BOUTIQUE WINES? Once upon a time, wine was made on a small-scale, at the village level by extended families, with each person pitching in after the harvest, often producing just enough for their own consumption through the year. While the world of wine has evolved dramatically from these early days towards a system of mass production and worldwide distribution, there is today a growing interest in the wines of smaller, local producers. These boutique, artisanal wines embody the original spirit of wine making, inspired by personal passion and a state of mind which values a hands-on approach and a desire to stay close to the land and to tradition. Raya Heritage’s boutique wine selection intends to capture this spirit by introducing the exceptional wines of some of these smaller winemakers to you, our guests. LUDOVICO PERONI TRAPPOLINI, LAZIO, ITALY Wine has always been part of everyday life for the Peroni family, which boasts a long lineage of proud winemakers who have passed down their passion and knowledge from one generation to the next, carrying forward an ancient tradition inspired by the land itself while laying the grounds of a legacy for the future.

  • Exploring Sustainable Tourism in Tenerife, Spain
    Cactus Tourism Journal Vol. 2, No. 2, 2020 New Series Pages 54-59, ISSN 2247-3297 EXPLORING SUSTAINABLE TOURISM IN TENERIFE, SPAIN Gabriela Țigu1 Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania Oana Diana Crismariu2 Bucharest University of Economic Studies, Romania Dan Anghelescu3 FIJET Romania and La Piovra Turista, Romania Miguel Angel Gonzalez Suarez4 CIT Tenerife and FIJET Spain, Spain Abstract Sustainability is no longer an extraordinary challenge nowadays for the service providers in Tenerife; this has become a habit for several years. Gradually, they try to instill in tourists care and respect for compliance with the rules that sustainability implies. The hotels have resorted to various ways in which they can carry out their activity in a sustainable way, trying to inform their tourists very well about them. Destinations on the island - regardless of their profile (cultural, coastal, ecotourism, rural, gastronomic, etc.) - are role models for other tourist areas of the world, both through sustainable development and promotion solutions, and by locals’ hospitality and openness to everything that is new. The article explores experiences in the south of the island, which highlight the above. Keywords: Sustainable tourism, tourism destination, hotel industry, pandemic, tourism forms, cittaslow JEL classification: Z32, Z38, L83, Q01, Q20, Q26 Introduction One of the best Spanish destinations is, without a doubt, the island of Tenerife. With a surprising biodiversity, an extremely varied relief and a perfect climate, the island offers a wide range of forms of tourism for practically all segments of tourists. But more than that, it offers a model of sustainable development. Tenerife is a spectacular destination in many ways.

Ukm CULTURE AND WINE-MMIM IN CALIFORNIA • A PKACTICAL^MANUAL FOR THE GRAPE-GROWER AND WINE-MAKER BY ^ i GEORGE HUSMANN NAPA, CAL SAN FRANCISCO PAYOT, UPHAM & CO., PUBLISHERS 204 Sansome Street 1888 Entered, according to Act of Congress, in the year 1887, by PAYOT, UPHAM & COMPANY In the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington COMMERCIAL PUBLISHING COMPANY PRINTERS 34 CALIFORNIA STREET, S. F PREFACE. A book, specially devoted to "Grape Culture and Wine Making in California," would seem to need no apology for its appearance, however much the author may do so for under- taking the task. California seems to him, at least, as ''the chosen land of the Lord," the great Vineland ; and the in- dustry, now only in its first stages of development, destined to overshadow all others. It has already assumed dimensions, within the short period of its existence, hardly forty years, that our European brethren can not believe it, and a smile of incredulity comes to their lips when we speak of vineyards of several thousand acres, with a product of millions of gallons per annum. But, while fully cognizant of the importance of these large enterprises, it is not for their owners that this little volume is Avritten specially. The millionaire who is able to plant and maintain a vineyard of several thousand acres, can and should provide the best and most scientific skill to manage his vine- yard and his cellars; it will be the wisest and most economi- cal course for him, he can afford to pay high salaries, and the most costly wineries, provided they are also practical, would be a good investment for him.
