It includes all major developments in the market including consumer trends relating to wine and marketing campaigns or approaches, as well as concerns on health and sustainability. Consumers shift to value vintages for wine TRICITY HERALD, USA 07.02.10: Consumers still love their Washington wines but have adjusted their palates to match their pocketbooks. Washington winemakers say they largely are thankful 2009 is a memory, but some believe one impact the nation's economic recession wrought on wine lovers may linger well into the new year. Growers and winemakers who gathered at the Three Rivers Convention Center in Kennewick last week for the Washington Association of Wine Grape Growers annual meeting, convention and trade show say they generally are optimistic 2010 will be a better sales year than the last. Some believe consumer preferences, however, may have shifted permanently to so-called value wines, which affect small growers and winemakers more than larger ones. "The economy has hurt the sale of mid-priced wines," said Fred Artz, president and CEO of Artz Vineyards on Red Mountain. "Everyone is looking for better wines, better bargains for their buck." Paul Beveridge, winemaker of Wilridge Winery in Seattle, grows grapes in Naches Heights near Yakima. Last year was "terrible," he said, but he saw increased visits to his tasting room in January, lending some optimism about sales prospects this year. … He then added with a chuckle, "The big fear in the marketplace is the consumer is going to get used to it." Washington produced 165,000 tons of grapes last year and is the No. 2 wine-producing state in the country, a distant second to California, which crushed 3.44 million tons of wine grapes last year. But California saw its first decline in wine shipments in 16 years last year, to 236 million cases, according to industry sources. In Washington, wine sales at the state's roughly 300 state and contract liquor outlets were $34 million in 2009, down from $37.3 million the previous year, said Steve Brunell, marketing manager for the Washington Liquor Control Board. The number of cases of wine sold in 2009 also declined to 432,000, down from 500,000 cases in 2008, Brunell said. The recession was in part to blame. Another reason could have been the proliferation of outlets, including large retail stores, now selling wine, Brunell said. Ste. Michelle Wine Estates owns or contracts more than 60 percent of the grapes in Washington. It saw the volume of its wine shipments in 2009 decline by 2.1 percent to 6 million cases, in part because restaurants and stores reduced their inventories and consumers cut back spending on wines above $30, said Ted Baseler, president and CEO of Ste. Michelle Wine Estates."Consumers were going to their wine cellars more frequently than they were to their wine stores," Baseler said. Total revenue in 2009 was $403 million for Ste. Michelle Wine Estates, whose wineries include Columbia Crest in Paterson, Chateau Ste. Michelle in Woodinville and Snoqualmie Vineyards in Prosser, according to year-end financial statements of its parent corporation, Altria Group Inc. Baseler, who has three decades of experience in the wine industry, views consumer Critical Publics | EDOAO Page 4 of 30 Global Wine Trends 12/02/2010 Weekly Update preferences last year for so-called value wines to be a cyclical occurrence -- not a permanent shift. … http://www.tri-cityherald.com/kennewick_pasco_richland/story/892626.html Survey indicates majority of wine shoppers would use self-service wine info kiosks KIOSK MARKET PLACE, USA 08.02.10: More than 80 percent of wine and spirits shoppers would use a self-serve kiosk for product information such as tasting notes, food pairing recommendations and cellaring guidelines, according to early results in an ongoing survey being conducted by RetailCustomerExperience.com. The survey found that while 74 percent of shoppers have asked for assistance and more than 70 percent rated the service as "excellent" or "good," the majority of shoppers (82 percent) would "absolutely" or "probably" use such a kiosk for information and that more than 53 percent would "absolutely" or "probably" purchase a greeting card from the kiosk with this information on it. "With over 98 percent of respondents saying they have shopped for wine or spirits to give as a gift or take to a dinner party, a self- serve kiosk supports the need for accessible product information with the convenience of providing a greeting card all

  • Microbial and Chemical Analysis of Non-Saccharomyces Yeasts from Chambourcin Hybrid Grapes for Potential Use in Winemaking
    fermentation Article Microbial and Chemical Analysis of Non-Saccharomyces Yeasts from Chambourcin Hybrid Grapes for Potential Use in Winemaking Chun Tang Feng, Xue Du and Josephine Wee * Department of Food Science, The Pennsylvania State University, Rodney A. Erickson Food Science Building, State College, PA 16803, USA; [email protected] (C.T.F.); [email protected] (X.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-814-863-2956 Abstract: Native microorganisms present on grapes can influence final wine quality. Chambourcin is the most abundant hybrid grape grown in Pennsylvania and is more resistant to cold temperatures and fungal diseases compared to Vitis vinifera. Here, non-Saccharomyces yeasts were isolated from spontaneously fermenting Chambourcin must from three regional vineyards. Using cultured-based methods and ITS sequencing, Hanseniaspora and Pichia spp. were the most dominant genus out of 29 fungal species identified. Five strains of Hanseniaspora uvarum, H. opuntiae, Pichia kluyveri, P. kudriavzevii, and Aureobasidium pullulans were characterized for the ability to tolerate sulfite and ethanol. Hanseniaspora opuntiae PSWCC64 and P. kudriavzevii PSWCC102 can tolerate 8–10% ethanol and were able to utilize 60–80% sugars during fermentation. Laboratory scale fermentations of candidate strain into sterile Chambourcin juice allowed for analyzing compounds associated with wine flavor. Nine nonvolatile compounds were conserved in inoculated fermentations. In contrast, Hanseniaspora strains PSWCC64 and PSWCC70 were positively correlated with 2-heptanol and ionone associated to fruity and floral odor and P. kudriazevii PSWCC102 was positively correlated with a Citation: Feng, C.T.; Du, X.; Wee, J.

  • Chapter One Alexander Fleuret Woke up About Six O' Clock in the Morning and Found Himself Lying on the Bed Wearing Only Socks, M
    Chapter One Alexander Fleuret woke up about six o' clock in the morning and found himself lying on the bed wearing only socks, Marks & Spencer navy underpants and brown PVC gloves. His head throbbed and his mouth felt oppressively dry. Sprawled over his bed, he stared at the ceiling. His frizzy black hair spilled across the white, overstuffed pillows. He opened his mouth, displaying only rotten stumps for teeth, put one hand to his fragile head while the other found the solid reassurance of the side of the bed. He craned forward groaning. He stumbled to the bathroom. Hearing to his dismay the cushioned but resolute footsteps of Carl on the stairs below, he made a dash for it. He mumbled a few words before scampering in and bolting the door, his hands clasped over his groin. Sober for over a year--and now this! Several embarrassing incidents had made him want to stop. He would drink between half and a full bottle of Bell's whisky a day on top of tranquillizers. One night he woke up in his best navy blue pin-striped suit, lying on his back halfway in the greenhouse doorway. The profound contemplation of the stars was the last thing he remembered. Halfway up the path there was a whisky bottle. Lately, morphine had been his main sedative, but he was still taking the odd Diazepam just out of habit. Regardless of whose company he was in, he would sit swigging from a bottle of Kaolin and Morphine mixture, up to three a day. When the kids were playing in the street outside, during the school holidays, they were a regular source of annoyance to him.

All rights reserved. Readers may make verbatim copies of this document for non-commercial purposes by any means, provided that this copyright notice appears on all such copies. 1 1. Introduction Wine is commonly recognised as a particular type of processed agrifood product, showing several different characteristics. Above all a close relationship is commonly assigned between wine and land of origin, the environment and the ecosystem in general (including not only natural aspects but also human skills, tradition, etc.), based on a complex web of interrelation between all the involved elements/operators. Since the 70s the interest on “clean wine-growing” has been increasing among the operators; this fact has also caused the development and the improving of organic processes for wine production (Iordachescu et al., 2009). For long time the legislation framework on the organic wine regulations has been incomplete and inefficient: EC Reg. 2092/911 and, after this, EC Reg. 834/20072 were extremely generic and through these Regulations it has been only possible to certify as “organic” the raw material (grapes from organically growing technique) and not the whole wine-making process.

I will discuss my case study, comparing it to the work of other researchers who have explored this specific area, as well as others who might echo my research journey. 6.1 Manchester as a case study: my biographical and experiential backyard The location of Manchester, the UK, for the case study, which is where I live and work, is highly strategic. The city is saturated in popular culture, being named Gunchester, Gangchester and Madchester in the past, and has been well documented by a range of popular journalists and commentators (Haslam, 1999; Swanton, 1997, 1998; Walsh, 2005; Wilson, 2002). The development of club cul- tures in Manchester has been specifically linked to urban regeneration (Lovatt, 1996).
