3 1. THE BRAND

4 1. BRAND PROPOSITION PAGE 4 BRAND PROPOSITION DA LUCA Proudly celebrating our Sicilian roots, Da Luca wines are distinctive, complex and reflect the unique growing conditions of this incredible island.

5 1. BRAND STORY PAGE 5 BRAND STORY DA LUCA IS PROUD TO BE SICILIAN AND OUR SICILIAN IDENTITY MAKES US WHO WE ARE. NOWHERE ELSE WILL YOU FIND SUCH AN INCREDIBLE COMBINATION OF PEOPLE, PLACE AND CLIMATE, OR SUCH DISTINCTIVE AND COMPLEX WINES. Located in the heart of Sicily, here at Da Luca we celebrate everything that s great about Sicilian wine. With our rich winemaking heritage and flair for creativity, we pride ourselves in producing bold, distinctive wines that are unmistakeably Sicilian. Working with small passionate growers scattered across the island to nurture the finest grapes, it s the unique growing conditions of the hot Sicilian sun, the cool sea breeze and the rich volcanic soil which give our wines their intensity and complex flavour.

6 1. BRAND ORIGINS PAGE 6 BRAND ORIGINS SICILY IS IN A UNIQUE POSITION TO COMBINE OLD WORLD EXPERTISE WITH THE FLAIR AND CREATIVITY OF NEW WORLD WINE PRODUCERS. With its wine making heritage and Old World associations, Italian wine offers consumers a degree of familiarity and reassurance. Although it is still a largely undiscovered and unknown wine growing region, consumers generally assume Sicilian wines will be good quality. As an island, consumers appreciate that Sicily has its own unique identity. This gives Sicily permission as a wine producing region to be more distinctive, with an expectation that the wines will be more creative and experimental than typical Old World wines.

7 1. BRAND TONALITY PAGE 7 BRAND TONALITY PROUDLY SICILIAN ESTABLISHES A SELF-CONFIDENCE THAT CONNOTES HIGH QUALITY WINES WITHOUT SOUNDING BRASH OR ARROGANT. Ours is a celebratory pride. We want to celebrate all that is amazing about Sicily everything from the breathtaking landscape and unique grape varietals, to the characterful locals who gather for a game of scopa on balmy summer evenings. Few people know the real Sicily and this is our chance to share our passion for great Sicilian wine. The confidence we have in who we are and why we are different comes across in this pride. It is not over the top, nor is it misplaced. It simply stems from a desire to be true to our Sicilian identity and stand apart from other Italian and Old World wines.

8 1. TARGET CONSUMER PAGE 8 TARGET CONSUMER OUR PRIMARY TARGET MARKETS ARE CONFIDENT ENTHUSIASTS AND ENGAGED EXPLORERS. THEY ARE KEEN TO TRY NEW WINES, WHILST LOOKING FOR REASSURANCE ON QUALITY. We know that our target already has a varied, well developed repertoire, spanning both Old World and New World wines. Quality is important and they appreciate Old World heritage and expertise. However, their active desire for challenge makes the prospect of experimenting with New World wines equally appealing. When it comes to Italian wines, they lack in-depth knowledge so tend to stick to the familiar. Sicily, with its Old World credentials and distinctive character, offers an exciting opportunity to broaden their repertoire and be in the know about more unusual varietals.

9 1. THE INSPIRATION PAGE 9 THE INSPIRATION AN ICONIC PART OF SICILIAN CULTURE, SCOPA IS THE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE NEW DA LUCA PACKAGING. EACH LABEL FEATURES ONE OF THE BEAUTIFUL CARD ILLUSTRATIONS FROM THE GAME TO CAPTURE THE COLOUR, PASSION AND SPIRIT OF SICILY. Sicilians never do anything by halves; whether that s cooking up a feast for family and friends, or getting the whole town together to celebrate carnevale, they have an incredible passion for life and for living.

10 1. THE INSPIRATION PAGE 10 THE INSPIRATION continued Nowhere is this more evident than in their love of the national Italian card game scopa. Played by young and old alike, this lively, colourful game is a big part of the local culture; families play around the table after dinner whilst fishermen sit out on the seafront slamming cards down onto upturned barrels. With their own Sicilian version of the game, scopa sums up what it means to be Sicilian; passionate, vivacious and not afraid to do things differently. It s these same characteristics that make Da Luca wines stand apart.

11 1. THE INSPIRATION PAGE 11 HOW TO PLAY SCOPA Scopa is normally played with between 2-4 players with a 40 card deck with 4 suits. HOW TO PLAY: The dealer deals 3 cards to each player including himself. 4 cards are placed face up in the centre. A player can either lay a card down or make a capture. A capture is made when a player matches their card to a card on the table or the sum of two or more cards on the table. BASTONI: Clubs DENARI: Coins SPADE: Swords COPPE: Cups If all the cards are cleared (swept) during a single capture, this is called a Scopa and normally shouted out at the table, and an additional point is awarded. Generic Scopa Card Sicilian specific Scopa Card The coins are important in winning extra points so the 7 of coins il settebello is a very desired card.
