〈Wine List by Grape Varietals〉〈Wine List by Winery〉ContentsThank you as always for your continued support.In this issue, we talked with Nic Peterkin of L.A.S. Vino, grandson of Dr Kevin and Diana Cullen̶one of the ‘three founding doctors of Margaret River’̶and son of Michael Peterkin, founder of Pierro. After the publication of Dr. John Gladstones’ report in 1965-66 highlighting the suitability of the region for winegrowing, they pioneered viticulture in Margaret River in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Over 50 years later, and with the rapid development of wine research and technology, how do the second and third generation winemakers shape their own paths? We asked Nic about the journey he took.Seeing is believing. With the aim of giving young sommeliers working in the field an opportunity to learn about viticulture and winemaking in Australia, Village Cellars has been awarding the Leeuwin Estate The Art of Fine Wine Award to the winners of the J.S.A. Sommelier Scholarship, sponsored by the Japan Sommelier Association, each year since 2019. The awards include a study trip to visit Leeuwin Estate and other producers in Western Australia. In March this year they visited Western Australia, and one of the awardees, Yuta Yoshida, reports on his experience. In May this year, the ‘Judgement of London’ was held at the London Wine Fair, following the theme of the original ‘Judgement of Paris’ which blind tasted French wines vs. Californian wines and overturned conventional wisdom about quality winemaking. This blind tasting, 48 years later, pitted the Best ‘European’ wines against the ‘Rest of the World’ wines, with wines from Village Cellars ‘Rest of the World’ producers featuring prominently. This year, esteemed winemakers from premium wineries around the world have been visiting Japan, a trend that continues into autumn. We will host Frankland Estate and Picardy from Western Australia, Pegasus Bay, which received the highest white wine score for Bel Canto in the ‘Judgment of London’, and Trinity Hill, whose Homage Syrah was also selected among 16 ‘Rest of the World’ wines. In October, the CEO of Champagne de Venoge will also visit, and together with leading sommelier Satoru Mori, we will host a tasting seminar reflecting on the history of this famous Maison. We hope you have an enjoyable autumn with Village Cellars wines.Note: Starting with this autumn catalogue, the name of the grape variety previously referred to as Pinot Meunier will be changed to Meunier. Pinot Meunier was originally a mutation of Pinot Noir, but the Institute of Agronomy (INRA) in Montpellier has confirmed that it has evolved genetically and is now completely different from Pinot Noir. As a result, INRA decided not to add ‘Pinot’ to the Meunier grape variety, and although it is not mandatory, this is in response to the gradual trend of changing the way wines are labelled around the world.Sparkling White Orange Rose Red Dessert & Fortified Australia New Zealand California Oregon P.10P.10-13 P.13 P.13P.13-17 P.17Argentina Chile France Portugal P.19-38 P.38-47 P.47-54 P.54-57Village CellarsP.18 Premium US wines Spot offer P.18 Exclusive hotels & restaurant wines P.18Other products (cider, sparkling tea, mineral water, winesave Pro)P.18/ P.71P.57-59 P.59-61 P.61-64P.64-65 -2-Greetings
