Following a busy event at SITT Manchester, Signature Wines was pleased to follow up with an equally busy tasting event at SITT London on Wednesday.
The Business Development Manager for Signature Wines said “I would like to start by thanking everyone for attending the tasting at both events in the last 72 hours. This includes the event hosts and all the other exhibitors, for making this one of the most important events to kick start 2014. With 1,000’s of wines on show, it’s a pleasure to be the only winery from the Republic of Macedonia.” Vladimir Gasnreak, Sommelier, Prime cuts, Scotland. “I’m really impressed by the cleanness and softness of the wines” Richard Brooks, Caroline Catering, “Quite an eye opener, they’re absolutely lovely” James Butler, Brackley Wines, “Amazing. Love them”.
Guests were able to taste advance samples of the new white vintages which will be available in the UK from April 2014 in addition to the very popular 2011 red wines which are currently held in stock. Signature's spokesperson went on to say “We are absolutely focused on delivering something new and exciting for the UK independent trade to enable them to broaden their existing range. With Wines of Brazil taking the master class hot spot, raising the profile on “interesting wines”, our stand had a non-stop flow of guests wanting to find out more about wines from the Eastern Mediterranean. We received fantastic feedback, proving that Stobi wines deliver on quality; impressing and surprising even the most practiced poker faces in the trade”.
Steven Spurrier, Decanter, “Very good” Charles, IWC. “I want to see that in the IWC this year” – pointing to the Zilavka. Jane Cuthbertson, Barrica Wines, “They’re wonderful. The only challenge I have now is selecting which ones to choose - I like them all” Signature Wines has confirmed they will be back at SITT in Autumn with a new selection of 2012 vintage reds once again raising the flag on wines from the Eastern Mediterranean. Robert Woodhead, RS Wine. “W-O-W” miming, the word after tasting the Vranec Veritas. David Carter, Wine Educator. “Well balanced, clean, and full of fruity flavours. These are what I call great wines”.
