Here are all the Tre
Bicchieri wines of 2013.
After the first few names
we printed last month, now
we’re presenting all the winning wines
(399), including the Special Prizes.
What’s the bottom line? The return
of the classic, Bolgheri’s amazing
2009, good news about the 2010
vintage premium whites and mixed
reviews of 2011 for whites in general.
There’s a lot to talk about. Saturday,
October 20 is the first Tre Bicchieri
tasting in Rome, followed by Tokyo
on November 1, then Shanghai
(November 5), and Hong Kong
(November 7).

One Winery, One Wine
We explore wineries with only one label. To understand the world of wine and its
complex dynamics, begin in Bordeaux. Everything seems to f ind its explanation there.
In Italy too, especially in Campania, the trend towards One Winery, One Wine.
by Antonio Boco
The notion of the brand, the concepts
of classifications, hierarchies and
commerce all begin in Bordeaux and
on the beautiful properties that
surround it. The first brands, the
Châteaux, that is, not only proved
effective but managed to change, by
means of their very existence, the
face of the marketplace. Brands
created new consumers and redrew
the map of pricing. The world
changed from bulk wine to bottles,
from a generic Bordeaux red – Claret
– to multiple choices available from
estates with real names. At the
beginning, and for a long time, each
presented itself with only one label,
continuing to sell the rest of the
production in barrels. That trend, as
with most ideas coming from
Bordeaux, spread quickly, from the
rest of France to newly producing
nations. Garage wines began to show
up everywhere.
Italy was no exception, but instances
of one-label houses are still very rare,
at least in wineries with enough
capacity to impact the marketplace.
Perhaps this is why an examination
of the phenomenon is particularly
fascinating. V incenz o S ampi,
professor at the University of
Florence and a great expert of wine
marketing says, “Turning out one
label only is an extremely interesting
path to take because the single
product immediately identifies the
producer. The fact is that today the
laws of the market demand a wider
range of bottles, and it’s difficult to
avoid conforming. Just look at how
Bordeaux, Italy and the rest of the
world developed.”
Some, though, still believe in this
one-wine f or mula, balancing
technical and production
considerations with clear visions of
Elena Fucci.
On the right, Silvia Imparato.
marketing. Among the most lucid of
these is Giovanni Ascione, whose
experience as a top manager,
cognoscente and experienced wine
journalist led to his recent years as a
producer in Nanni Copè, Castel
Campagnano (near Caserta, in
Campania). “I immediately decided
to produce only one wine and I’m
sure I’ ll keep going this way,”
Giovanni explains. “The real reason?
I don’t know how I could make
another wine. I aim for the best, so I
don’t like the idea of bottling
something that doesn’t fit that
description. From a production point
of view, I try to waste as little as
possible, starting in the vineyard. But
if there’s something I have doubts
about, I don’t harvest it, as in 2009
and in 2011. Then, if I have small
quantities in the cellar that I decide
not to use, I give it away as gifts.”
And from a business point of view?
“This approach may seem like a
limitation, but  continues

w w w.ggor i .com
 one garage wine
having only one wine can also be a strong
point,” Ascione continues. “In terms of
communication, it’s a win-win situation.
Through that one label I can explain my
whole winery and my philosophy. It’s total
identification. Commercial logic comes as
a result.”
Another who has always taken this line is
Galardi, on the market with only Terra di
Lavoro. One of the makers of this miracle,
Arturo Celentano, explains that it all came
about simply and naturally. When a hobby
becomes a business, things don’t change
much because efforts and energy all go
towards increasing the number of bottles
produced without losing sight of quality.
“We couldn’t let ourselves be distracted,”
he tells us, “and today we’re pleased with
the choice we made. Certainly, there’s
always the temptation to produce a second
wine, but at the moment it would seem
like a stretch, and would indicate a lack of
respect for our clients.
For Elena Fucci, the young and passionate
grapegrower in the Vulture area of
Basilicata, everything
came about as a result of
decisions taken at the
start. “When my father
found a buyer for a old
six-hectare vineyard that
had belonged to my
grandfather, I saw the
light. I was 18 years old
and in one moment I
decided to change my
life plans, to keep the
vi n e y ard an d s t ud y
enology. I felt the earth
calling me. A choice like
that leads to other
equally radical strategies,
so we make no
compromises and no
backup wine. My idea is
to represent the Vulture
zone and to make it
k n o w n t h ro u g h i t s
wine. An objective as ambitious as this doesn’t
permit speculation or shortcuts. So, for
now, no second wine.”
Silvia Imparato’s experience is one of the
most celebrated in modern Italian wine
history and her Montevetrano has always
been unique, in the true sense of the word.
“When it began, I wasn’t thinking about
sales at all,” she remembers. “It was the
wine that brought us to the marketplace.
It caused talk from the start. Parker wrote
about a Sassicaia of the South and so we
were immediately submerged with orders.
At the beginning, the quantities were
minute, but even if little by little we grew,
the numbers are still small. We didn’t
change our methods or choose to make a
second wine. Quality always comes first.
The future? I’ll tell you a little secret. At
the end of the year we’ll present a new
wine to celebrate our estate’s twentieth
anniversary. A monovarietal aglianico. It
shows how much attention we’re paying
to what’s happening in our territory.
Maximum quality, as usual, but we hope
to be able to speak to new consumers at
an affordable price. This is a small change,
but we hope it will allow us to
continue to be ourselves.”

OLIVE OIL / Lucia Iannotta
Producer On the hills near the slopes
of the Monti Ausoni, 500 meters above
sea level, south of the town of Latina and
in the municipality of Sonnino, Lucia
Iannotta’s farm has been producing olive oil for four
generations. The entire estate, 16 hectares of rocky
limestone soil, is devoted to olive groves, with 4,000
trees exclusively of the itrana cultivar. The property
is divided in two, each with exposure to the mild
sea breezes. Olives are harvested by hand in
November and December and milled within four
hours in a modern, spic-and-span company mill.
Each phase of the work is followed with care to
guarantee top quality extravergine olive oil.
Olive oil The Iannotta extravergine, all from the
itrana cultivar, is a medium-intense fruity oil with
grassy, balsamic and floral notes. In the mouth,
notes of bitter almond and herbs with bitter/peppery
notes well-balanced and persisting on a long finish.
An exceptional, balanced, fresh and unusual oil.

The many faces of Chianti
Interview with Giovanni Busi, president of the Consorzio Vino Chianti
Exploring
the most extensive
DOCG
in Italy, more and more
active on the
international scene
How is promotion abroad
changing?
Over the last couple of years we
have begun a series of important
operations in order to bring wineries into
foreign markets. The process has been
inverted: wineries go to the marketplace and
not vice versa. Chianti still enjoys remarkable
fame, but it is very important to make it even
better known, especially among the new
generations. Our tastings, besides being aimed at the trade, will
also be open to all towards the end. It is crucial to be in touch with
the greatest number of opinions.
To conclude, tell us about Chianti and the
three key concepts you’ll emphasize when
traveling around the world.
Above all, Chianti is a famous wine, known
to everybody, but it is also a wine for everybody.
It’s a wine suited for the most demanding
palates, but also for those who are approaching
wine for the first time. Secondly, because of
the breadth of its territory, it provides a wealth
of different styles that are suitable for any
situation, offering incredible versatility from the point of view of
pairing with food during a meal. And, importantly, it
offers excellent value for its price.
Where will you be directing your efforts?
In a few weeks we’ll be in China to participate in VinChina, the
first institutional fair; it will be held in Beijing from November 4
to 6. Then we’ll fly to Japan, to Tokyo, with our own event, in which
Chianti will accompany local and internatioal specialties for new
and exciting wine&food pairings. Finally, from November 8-10,
we’ll be in Hong Kong to take part in the International
Wine&Spirits Fair. In 2013, we’re planning to repeat the United
States operation in the cities of New York and San Francisco, and
we will also be on the scene in Russia, with two stops - in Moscow
and St. Petersburg. Finally, we go to Zurich, in Switzerland.
There’s a lot happening. Let’s look at the export situation. How’s
it going?
The United States is still the most important market in terms of
sales, followed by the European countries with well-consolidated
markets such as Germany, but also Austria, England and Denmark.
Sales in 2012 have been up by about 2.5% compared to last year.
The year 2009 was the most difficult one of the crisis. We had
major inventories, but within two years we returned to normal
levels in our warehouses. In 2011 we saw a recovery and today, that
recovery is evident.
What are your plans for the Italian marketplace?
We have important operations coming up in the principal cities,
among them Rome and Florence. Promotions targeted, above all,
at wine bars, but also closely tied to cultural aspects, such as
“Paesaggi del Vino”, an architectural design project that we
presented on September 22nd at the Biennale d’Architettura di
Venezia together with Gambero Rosso.
Let’s talk about the harvest. How was the 2012 vintage year?
We can’t complain about it from a qualitative point of view, but it
will surely be one of the worst in terms of quantity. The
complementary varieties of the Chianti regulations are low in
comparison to sangiovese, which should in part balance out in
terms of numbers. All in all, we expect production to be down
5-10% compared to 2011.

Export more food and wine
to create more employement
A letter from Paolo Cuccia
Exports: are the brakes on? The
answer has to be in the
affirmative. L et ’s look at
contributing factors and think
about solutions. We begin with government.
We don’t have a Ministry for The Beautiful
and The Good (maybe we should?), but at
least the present character of the various
ministries should be examined.
Agricultural policy is the responsibility of a
ministry that is often seen as secondary (is
it really?) and in any case meets with
continual resistance and bypassing on the
part of the regions. (Paolo De Castro, a great
Minister of Agriculture in the past, and
today a commission president in Brussels,
describes the country as having 20 Ministers
of Agriculture.) More and more frequently,
its budget is spent on delegations and
offices abroad rather than in real promotion.
It ’s no accident that Gianni Zonin,
grapegrower and banker, believes that the
Chinese would drink more Italian wine if
they could be more easily convinced to visit
our country. I’ll finish this commentary
with the Ministero dei Beni Culturali,
Ministr y of Cultural Heritage and
Activities, where officials have carried out
the function of protecting our immense
heritage, but never the indispensable one
of promoting places and museums.
Government ignores
the fact that our
production often has
a solid artisanal base but
limited industrial and
commercial organization
As soon as an agricultural product, or one
in the first stages of processing, is
transformed into an industrial product, it
comes under the aegis of the Ministero dello
Sviluppo Economico, Ministry of Economic
Development, which, despite the
encouraging declarations of Minister
Passera, is historically more suited for
working with the energy sectors and with very large businesses,
which are practically non-existent in the food-companies sector.
Tourism is the responsibility of a minister without portfolio, a
confirmation, alas, of the phenomenon that rates Italy as the ideal
destination in all international evaluations, but as constantly
surpassed by France and progressively by other countries that are
enormously less endowed with beauty, cuisine and art, but are more
vigilant.
Government ignores the fact that our production often has a solid
artisanal base but limited industrial and commercial organization.
Therefore, tourism, if increased and well-planned, can become the
best way to have our products be tasted and known abroad. Food
companies, but also design studios and fashion manufacturers,
often do not have the size or the facilities to export, but are expert
in satisfying the requirements of an affluent global clientele with
products of incomparable quality to enjoy and to buy in our
wonderful towns and cities.
Is there a solution? I think so. It’s to put
The Beautiful and The Good at the center
of the government’s program. The fact that
it represents about a quarter of production,
employment and export means it deserves
more attention. This requires a healthy
policy of coordination at the ministerial
and regional level, with no red tape, special
agencies (central or local, or whatever they
may be called) but exclusively planning
and administrative control, leaving the rest
entirely to the private sector, with
transparent public tenders and strict
controls over export programs.
For wine, European policy, with the
adoption of the OCM (or CMO Common
Market
Organization), provides
oaP
u
c
aic C ol
ebmaG
financial means
for internationalizing
actions directly to
21 ossoR or
oianneg
producers, even supporting visits from buyers and foreign
journalists.
Today there are thousands of quality companies and consortiums
that pass on these contributions and the financial integration
required on the part of the producer, amounting to 50%, to private
firms like ours, accompanying them to meet trade professionals
in the major western countries and in emerging economies of
Asia.
Moreover, the contribution of the banks is notable, since for some
time they have been organizing reversed road shows, that is,
inviting foreign importers to Italy. Unicredit has carried out
thirteen in the last year, bringing traders to Italy through the
bank’s branches in central Europe. To sum up, less bureaucracy
and more subsidiarity, less government as protagonist and more
as a planner in the service of the private economy which, at least
in this sector, has proved to be combative and successful.

...and where
to drink it
Montecucco Rosso Colle Massari Ris. ’09
Colle Massari
50,000 bottles | 15 euros
Canapone
Grosseto
The wine chosen this month won us over
easily. Grown on rock and clay terrain,
vinified after twenty-five days of
maceration and eighteen months aging in
barrique, it presents an intense ruby-red
color. It expresses itself on the nose in
austere notes of black berry fruit, licorice
and spices. Soft and mouth-filling, it
regales the palate with fragrant
sensations and at the same time is wellbalanced between acidity and tannins.
The close is fruity and prolonged. An
important point to note: a wine like this is
sold at less than 15 euros. The winery
that produces this red, Colle Massari, lies
in the area of Montecucco where the
local denomination is characterized by
very territorial, classic wines, as if from
another time in the past. This is the
Grosseto province, right near Montalcino,
an area historically famous for reds. Colle
Massari’s owner, Claudio Tipa, an
entrepreneur in pharmaceuticals,
revolutionised the Montecucco area, a
zone that was timidly starting to emerge
on the Italian wine scene. Investing
heavily, which benefited the neighboring
zone as well, he set off a virtuous circle
that helped other growers to expand as
well as attracting entrepreneurs from
more well-established areas. Besides this
beautiful estate, Tipa also owns two other
very important wineries, Grattamacco in
the Bolgheri zone and Poggio di Sotto in
Montalcino.
If a visit to a winery didn’t exhaust your
curiosity about Tuscany, we suggest a
restaurant a few kilometers from Colle
Massari: Canapone, in Grosseto. Although
in the center of the city, it feels like a
welcoming farmhouse in the Tuscan
countryside. Beatrice Montefiori will be there
to welcome you, but it’s Giulia Montefiori
and and Alessio Biagi who are busy in the
kitchen. Though their fine skills are
uninfluenced by fashions, they reflect the
traditional and classic tone of local cuisine in
a contemporary manner. Tasting menus are
the best choices and they take you on two
different paths, one based on meat and one
on fish, both thoughtful and fascinating.
Among the farm-based dishes, sweetbreads
with cubes of polenta and leek-potato
cream is excellent, as are squab-stuffed
ravioli with a sauce of shallots and crisp
bread or roast squab with wine sauce
(Morellino di Scansano) and browned
mountain potatoes. On the seafood menu,
try scallops with foie gras terrine and local
lentils or fish-stuffed ravioli with a sauce of
clams and mussels, or spaghetti alla chitarra
(square-edged strands) in a black cuttlefishink sauce. Wild seabass dusted with caper
and pancetta powder, broccoli tossed with
garlic and red pepper, and an excellent
seafood stew, cacciucco, were other
winners. A wide choice of excellent desserts
complete the meal. The wine list is very
Tuscan and largely red-focused, but offers
some interesting choices of French wine.

Spa: Le Terme di Saturnia
A few kilometers from Grosseto is another stop on our ideal tour of the zone, the
thermal baths of Saturnia. A relaxing place in the middle of the Tuscan countryside,
Saturnia has a number of natural springs, known even to the Etruscans and, after
them, to the Romans, for their purifying and regenerative qualities. Sulphurous waters
bubble from the earth at 37.5° C (99.5°F). Some can be visited at open-air freeaccess pools, but many are part of well-equipped and luxurious spa hotels.
P­ ompeii’s
wine reborn
by Stefania Annese
On the morning of August 24, 79 AD, the
people of Pompeii looked up to see Vesuvius
covered with a grey cloud that showered
them with ashes and lapilli, fragments of
rock. It was a puzzling sight. The Pompeians
didn’t know they were helplessly waiting for
a terrifying eruption of the volcano that in a
short time, would bury the cities of Pompeii
and Herculaneum. The two towns lay under
the ashes for 1,700 years, until one day,
workers digging a well for a villa came upon
part of the wall of a Roman theater. Since
then, 1709, excavations have continued
constantly, but the two sites still hold great
treasures. Besides impressive monuments,
homes and buildings, the ashes also preserved
ancient carbonized trellises and vineyards.
Since 1996, the Archaelogical Research
L a b o r a t o r y o f Na p l e s a n d t h e
Mastroberardino winery have been working
with these, applying botanical studies to
experimental archaeology. In 2003, the first
wine grown in the zones of Pompeii that had
been identified as vineyards was released,
produced, as much as possible, according to
ancient techniques. This exceptional project
has captured the imagination of thousands
of history and wine enthusiasts and led to the
production of a red wine made with
piedirosso and sciascinoso grapes. Called
Villa dei Misteri, it is named for the
celebrated villa that was one of the most
famous wineries of the zone.
Mastroberardino’s Villa dei Misteri wine
represents one way to explore the culture and
traditions of the ancient world, giving us a
glimpse of the customs of people who lived
2,000 years ago. At the same time, the sale of
the wine will help enhance and protect a
territory, a landscape, a world heritage site
that, if not preserved and cared for, risks
crumbling, buried under new ashes of
indifference and neglect.
