  1. Hello fellow Century Club members,
    VINISUD 2014 – The international Exhibition of Mediterranean Wines & Spirits – will take place on 24, 25 and 26 of February 2014 in Montpellier, France. This will be a fantastic opportunity for our Century Club members that are part of the commercial wine Import, Distribution and Retail trade community to participate. The event is also open to members of the Wine Journalism profession.

    Producers from the Mediterranean region will feature an incredible variety of wines and wine grapes from the world’s leading wine region, the Mediterranean. Wines from the following countries will be represented; France, Algeria, Spain, Israel, Italy, Lebanon, Morocco, Portugal, Tunisia and Turkey. Wines from this region account for more than 50% of world output.
    More information will follow about a featured sampling area hosted by Wine Mosaic where you can discover “100 original grape varieties you have never tasted before.” That should prove interesting to our attending members.
    Take time to visit the Vinisud website at http://www.vinisud.com
    Slàinte, Tom

  2. Hello again fellow Century Club members,
    As I previously mentioned, VINISUD 2014 – The international Exhibition of Mediterranean Wines & Spirits – will take place on 24, 25 and 26 of February 2014 in Montpellier, France.
    I wish to report additional information that will be quite interesting to our members.
    The new “Expression Méditerranéenne” by Vinisud is this year dedicating a large stand to Wine Mosaic, inviting participants to a unique tasting experience featuring wines produced from original Mediterranean grape varieties.
    The Wine Mosaic association campaigns for vinodiversity by encouraging the protection and promotion of original Mediterranean grape varieties.
    At the sampling area mentioned above, Mosaic proclaims that you can discover “100 original grape varieties you have never tasted before”. Our longtime Century Club members will, no doubt, have tasted a number of these grapes but will no doubt discover some untasted grapes and revel in the experience.
    Also, a “Talk and Taste” will take place where a number of winegrowers will invite you to sample their wines from original grape varieties and explain their approach to wine-making
    I am very excited about the Wine Mosaic effort and their participation in ViniSud 2014 — I hope to see some of our members at the event
