He restored the property’s orginal manor and press house, and resurrected the famed vineyards. Today, it stands as a leader in the region’s renaissance. Királyudvar has 6 main vineyards located in Tokaji’s heartland on the hilltops surrounding the villages of Mád and Bodrogkeresztúr. All are historically important grand cru sites, including Henye, Percze, Becsek, and the great Lapis. The dominant grapes are Furmint and Hárslevelű, with a small amount of Muskotály. Ownership of the Loire Valley’s famed Domaine Huet has provided the family with invaluable insight in developing Királyudvar.

FINE WINE AND COLLECTOR FRAUD 4 II. WINE, SUBJECTIVITY AND SCIENCE 20 III. WHO IS A WINE FRAUD EXPERT? 23 CONCLUSION 28 REFERENCES 30 ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my committee members, Professor Simon Cole, Assistant Professor Bryan Sykes and Professor George Tita. iii ABSTRACT Wine, Fraud and Expertise By Valerie King Master of Arts in Social Ecology University of California, Irvine, 2019 Professor Simon Cole, Chair While fraud has existed in various forms throughout the history of wine, the establishment of the fine and rare wine market generated increased opportunities and incentives for producing counterfeit wine. In the contemporary fine and rare wine market, wine fraud is a serious concern. The past several decades witnessed significant events of fine wine forgery, including the infamous Jefferson bottles and the more recent large-scale counterfeit operation orchestrated by Rudy Kurniawan. These events prompted and renewed market interest in wine authentication and fraud detection. Expertise in wine is characterized by the relationship between subjective and objective judgments. The development of the wine fraud expert draws attention to the emergence of expertise as an industry response to wine fraud and the relationship between expert judgment and modern science. iv INTRODUCTION In December 1985, at Christie’s of London, a single bottle of 1787 Château Lafitte Bordeaux, was auctioned for $156,000, setting a record for the most expensive bottle of wine ever sold (Wallace 2008).

  • Wines of Spain Introduction Spanish Wine Classification Spanish Wine
    Wines of Spain Introduction Spain is the third largest wine producer in the world and has the largest land area dedicated to vineyards than any other country. Earlier, it was known for ‘sherry’ and red wines from Rioja, outside Spain. However, today, almost all its wines are well – recognized because of dedicated and continuous efforts on improving the quality. Some new wine makers are employing modern technology and introduce classic grape varieties along with native grapes, to wide range of wines. Spain has a diverse climate which gives a variety of wine styles – full – bodied wines, light wines, and sparkling wines. Sparkling wines are made in Spain using methode champenoise named Cava. Spanish Wine Classification Spanish wine classification is based on French appellation system, which not only identifies the specific area of production and the grapes used but also the minimum ageing period which is applied to all Spanish wines. Spanish Wine Areas Rioja This region makes the best known Spanish table wines, including red and white of different styles and rose. The key feature of Rioja is that it is aged for a longer period in 225 litre barricas (barrels); for instance, reds are aged as long as 15-20 years obtaining an oak flavour from the wood. The reds are mainly from tempranillo. The whites of Rioja are made chiefly viura. The three Rioja red wine classifications, as found on the front or back of Spanish wine bottle labels are as follows – • Crianza – This is fresh, fruit – flavored, youthful, red wine that is aged in oak for a minimum of one year and then kept another year for ageing in the bottle.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Brooklyn Journal of Corporate, Financial & Commercial Law by an authorized editor of BrooklynWorks. SOMETHING TO WINE ABOUT: WHAT PROPOSED REVISIONS TO WINE LABELING REQUIREMENTS MEAN FOR GROWERS, PRODUCERS, AND CONSUMERS ABSTRACT Title 27 of the Code of Federal Regulations governs the standards for the information that is printed on wine bottle labels, including the appellation of origin. Currently, however, wines are exempt from these regulations if they will not be introduced in interstate commerce. There is a proposed amendment to the Code that would bring all wines, regardless of whether they are sold interstate or solely intrastate, under the federal standards for wine labeling. Between the current system, which permits exempt wines to sidestep the regulations, and the proposal, which would exact strict standards of compliance uniformly, lies a middle-ground approach that would apply federal regulation to all wines while also defining the distinction between appellations of origin and identification of grape sources.
