The first step in selecting which good Italian wines to drink is reading the label…

Ahoi! 🚢🌊🐟⚓️ While I was just testing Ahoi by Steffen Henssler in #Wendtorf Marina ⛵️🚤, there are the news that several #restaurants of GO by Steffen Henssler declared bankruptcy! Not sure if it is the local #franchisee / management or location, but it shows that it not that easy even if you have a known name & #brand. Anybody know more?

Such a compelling region - Gamay del Trasimeno DOC - glorious Grenache wines that reflect the terroir of Umbria; a wonderful touch point of this special region - history, food and wine.

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but we rather have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Congratulations to REMA 1000 Danmark for receiving several first-place awards at the prestigious PLMA Salute to Excellence Awards. Among others, GUSTUS SPECIAL RESERVE SHIRAZ, a private label created in collaboration with AMKA GROUP, Darling Cellars, and the design agency Motherland, was recognized. These awards acknowledge outstanding innovation and quality in private label products. They celebrate retailers and wholesalers for their excellence in creating store brand products across various categories, including food, beverages, health and beauty, household products, and more. Products are judged based on several criteria, including taste, appearance, packaging, product concept, and value for money. The evaluation process involves industry experts, chefs, and consumers. Within AMKA Group, we work with wine brands both big and small, including celebrity brands and private labels. The importance of private labels has grown significantly within the last eight to ten years in the wine industry. By now, we have created a significant number of private labels in different markets and channels, gaining valuable experience and insights into the whole process. Our strong collaborative relationships with wineries across the world provide us with many opportunities to help our partners achieve success in their respective businesses. In short, we can help our partners with: - Sourcing the wine and bottling - Choosing different varieties, blends, and styles - Label and packaging design (both in-house and via design agencies) - Visuals for marketing and branding campaigns - Quality control - Supply chain and scalability - Innovation and responsiveness to trends - Profitability

Prowein 2024. What can be said other than that it was slow? The halls were filled with comments saying 'it's too expensive; vinexpo is better; the hotels in Paris are cheaper; the flights to Paris are cheaper and more abbundant; Paris is more fun than Düsseldorf (and let's not forget that for the second year in a row there were strikes that made things more difficult.) I tend to differ in this opinion. It's not that Vinexpo is better than Vinitaly or Prowein or otherwise. The real problem is that the wine business only needs one major international fair per year...not three. I don't care where this fair is. Another option is that they give wineries the opportunities to sign up every other year rather than every year. The fair organizer need to realize that their ultimate client is the fairgoer. I understand that a lot of money enters into the city thanks to Vinitaly/Prowein/Vinexpo, but if the fair doesn't have a positive cost benefit, then we fairgoers will invest in other ways. If they don't give us more options to increase our investments, then we will abandon them. We are in a post covid world and ready to rethink our investments. #prowein #vinitaly #vinexpo #dusseldorf
