Table 2 Tenuta Montauto, Maremma, Toscana, Italy Riccardo Lepri The Maremma is often refer to as the Wild West, both in terms of its landscapes and its winemaking. While in Northern Tuscany, the Etruscans were making wine thousands of years before, the Maremma used to be a wild, swampy backwater, and viticulture was only introduced to the region in the 19th century. Riccardo Lepri s family has produced artisan wines for nearly sixty years at the Montauto estate, nestled 200 metres above sea level on a clay rich soil. The vineyards benefit from a cooling sea breeze and large diurnal temperature. This unique microclimate coupled with Riccardo s practices of minimum intervention, hand harvesting and use of natural fertilizers help produce wines that are clean, fresh and mineral, showcasing his unique terroir with balance and elegance. 2/1 Maremma Bianco Vermentino Malvasia 2016 9.33 2/2 Gessaia Sauvignon Blanc 2016 12.08 2/3 Enos 1 Sauvignon Blanc 2016 16.33 2/4 Maremma Rosso Ciliegiolo Sangiovese 2015 9.33 2/5 Pinot Nero 2015 16.33 annual portfolio tasting www.davywine.co.uk/wholesale 5

Table 5 S A Prüm, Mosel, Germany David Wright The Prüm name has been synonymous with quality wine production in the Mosel for generations, where the family has been cultivating vineyards and producing wine in the region since 1156. In summary, S A Prüm was the original, dominant Prüm name until 1911 when branches of the family went their own ways (i.e. J J Prüm). The grandson of the vineyard s namesake, Sebastian Alois Prüm (1794-1871), also Sebastian Alois, established the winery in 1911. His son and now grandson, the present day Raimund, who inherited the vineyards in 1971, continue the traditions with his daughter Saskia. Since 1971 the winery was modernised and the vineyards further developed, consistently producing wines with an international following. The 13 hectares of vineyards are exclusively planted with Riesling on the steep slopes of the middle Mosel. 5/1 Solitar Riesling Trocken 2016 9.17 5/2 Bernkasteler Lay Riesling Kabinett 2010 20.17 5/3 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Spätlese 2011 24.17 5/4 Wehlener Sonnenuhr Riesling Devon Großes Gewächs 2010 33.67 5/5 Graacher Dompropst Auslese 2006 37.5cl 15.83 8 * Prices per 75cl unless otherwise stated, exclusive of VAT, inclusive of duty, correct at time of printing, subject to availability.

Table 22 Domaine des Carabiniers, Rhône Valley, France Manon Messainguiral-Thétard The domaine has been within the Leperchois family for many generations with the current generation practicing organic viticulture since 1997. In 1920, the family developed the old stable walls into a cellar in which the horse emblem for the wines was founded. Their 40 hectares of vineyards can be found on the right bank of the Rhône river, taking advantage of the sun exposure and drainage from the sandy and stony soils. The use of traditional, organic and biodynamic methods, along with the passion in which the wines are made, has allowed Domaine des Carabiniers to produce some of the best wines of the region.

Table 27 Bodegas de la Marquesa, Rioja, Spain Pablo de Simón This long established family Bodega lies in the village of Villabuena, drawing from vineyard plantings on the limestone ridges of the Alavesa region. It is based on the same principal as a good French Château which is to use fruit only from their own vineyards, set rigorous standards in the cellars and, following fermentation in stainless steel, age the wine in oak, part of which is renewed each year. The wines have elegance and pungency combined with the soft spicy allure that only well made Tempranillo can offer. They are very good indeed. 27/1 Valserrano Blanco Barrica 2016 10.75 27/2 Valserrano Gran Reserva Blanco 2009 26.67 27/3 Valserrano Crianza 2014 11.00 27/4 Valserrano Reserva 2012 15.00 27/5 Valserrano Gran Reserva 2010 24.00 27/6 Valserrano Finca Monteviejo 2012 26.83 annual portfolio tasting www.davywine.co.uk/wholesale 33

Table 34 Gouguenheim, Mendoza, Argentina Patricio Gouguenheim Patricio s love of wine started at an early age when his French parents gave him a little bit of wine mixed with sparkling water. Many years later his interest and passion for wine led him to purchase his own winery. Located 45 miles from the city of Mendoza in the foothills of the Andes we think it is one of the best kept secrets in the Uco Valley. Situated at an altitude of 3,600 feet (one of the highest estates in Mendoza) there is a vast temperature difference between day and night, these unique elements together with irrigation from the Andes snow melt allow optimum fruit ripening and concentration. With the expertise of Patricio and his winemaking team the results are for great wines and considerable value. sparkling 34/1 Sparkling Malbec Rosé nv 9.42 34/2 Torrontés 2015 8.67 34/3 Reserve Pinot Noir 2015 8.17 34/4 Malbec 2017 8.17 34/5 Reserve Malbec 2015 9.83 34/6 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 9.83 34/7 Blue Melosa Flores Malbec 2013 12.42 42 * Prices per 75cl unless otherwise stated, exclusive of VAT, inclusive of duty, correct at time of printing, subject to availability.
