La Scolca is the producer of the authentic and finest Gavi dei Gavi for over 100 years. Join the Festival to learn first-hand how Chiara Soldati, winemaker and owner, and her family created the unique and original Gavi dei Gavi family of wines. The La Scolca estate was purchased between 1917 and 1919 by the great-grandfather of Giorgio Soldati who, today, leads the company with his daughter Chiara. The past and the future live together at La Scolca: the naturalness of those who have always been is combined with the vim and vigor of forward-looking leaders. The surname Soldati “soldiers” is particularly symbolic of the approach taken by the company’s owners. Gavi is the name of a little town on the Apennines mountains, located in Piedmont border to Liguria, from where the famous white and dry wine has taken its name. Thanks to La Scolca® who began his production of GAVI 100 years ago, Gavi obtained DOC in 1974 and later DOCG (Denomination of Origin Controlled ano Guaranteed) in 1998. Amongst the wines featured will be the La Scolca D’Antan which is the most exclusive and prestigious Gavi dei Gavi in the world. Featured Wines: 2018 La Scolca Black 100 Years Gold Bottle 2018 La Scolca White Label 2009 La Scolca Black Label 2006 La Scolca D'Antan 1999 La Scolca Black Label 1989 La Scolca Black Label

The Côte de Beaune produces some of the best white wines in the world - unequalled intensity, complexity and elegance. Nestled right in the middle of the appellation is Olivier Leflaive Frères; founded in 1717, the Leflaive family has been making wine in Puligny Montrachet for 18 generations. Olivier started his own winemaking business in 1984, after his American importer, Frederick Wildman & Sons, expressed interest in wines from Meursault and Chassagne-Montrachet. At the time, the family estate didn’t have vines in either appellation or the capacity to vinify any more grapes. His business model was to buy grapes and must and then sell the wine prior to bottling, a revolutionary idea in Burgundy at the time. His brother, Patrick, joined the company as co-owner and thus Olivier Leflaive Frères was born. Always looking for new opportunities, Olivier partnered with Erick de Souza from Champagne de Souza to create Champagne Valentin Leflaive. They’ve created a new kind of growers Champagne with a Burgundian making the base wine and a Champenois creating the Champagne. The one consistency in all of Olivier Leflaive’s project is the grape varietals. Whether it comes from the Côte de Beaune or the Côte des Blancs, chardonnay and pinot noir are the only grapes he ever uses. This seminar will illustrate the diversity of the terroir in Burgundy and Champagne. We will explore how each wine is an expression of the different soil characteristics of the appellation and the vineyard sites. Featured Wines: NV Champagne Valentin Leflaive Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs 2018 Bourgogne Blanc Les Setilles 2017 Puligny-Montrachet Villages 2016 Puligny Montrachet “Les Pucelles” 1er Cru (Domaine) 2015 Chassagne Montrachet “Clos Saint Marc” 1er Cru (Domaine) 2017 Pommard Villages 2017 Volnay “Clos des Angles” 1er Cru

Take a guided tour of the Chianti Classico region of Tuscany through the eyes of one of the region’s founding families. Alessia Antinori, the 26th Generation of the famed winemaking family, will lead a tasting journey of her family’s Chianti Classico wines and estates and share the family’s history and passion for this celebrated region, including the creation of Tignanello. The Antinori Family history is a narrative about devotion to winemaking that is woven through nearly 635 years and 26 generations. Alessia, along with her sisters Albiera and Allegra, are the 26th generation now leading Marchesi Antinori – one of the longest running family businesses in the world. The Antinori family’s roots (and heart) are in the Chianti Classico in Tuscany. This not only dates back to 1385 when Giovanni di Piero joined the Winemakers Guild of Florence, but also to a monumental occasion in 1716, when Antonio Antinori led a Commission tasked by Cosimo III de’ Medici to define the geographical boundaries of the world’s first wine appellation: Chianti Classico. This forever linked the region to the Antinori family. The family continues to invest in the region with new vineyards and at the state-of-the-art Chianti Classico Winery they opened a few years ago, which is open to wine lovers around the world. Featured Wines: 2017 Pèppoli Chianti Classico DOCG 2015 Villa Antinori Chianti Classico DOCG Riserva 2016 Marchese Antinori Tenuta Tignanello Chianti Classico DOCG Riserva 2016 Badia a Passignano Chianti Classico DOCG Gran Selezione 2016 Tignanello Toscana IGT

Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars produces renowned Cabernet Sauvignon from its historic estate vineyard in the Stag's Leap District of Napa Valley.

The same classic style of the estate wines is expressed in the Napa Valley wines – AVETA Sauvignon Blanc, KARIA Chardonnay and ARTEMIS Cabernet Sauvignon. Winemaker Marcus Notaro, head winemaker since 2013, will lead a tasting journey through the decades, highlighting milestones in the winery’s storied history. Attendees will have the chance to taste a few special library wines. Featured Wines: 2018 AVETA Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley 2016 FAY Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley 2016 S.L.V.

Languedoc Roussillon is the perfect place for organic viticulture. It is France’s largest organic wine production region - thanks, in part, to its dry, windy, and sunny climate, but also to the diversity of the varietals. Gérard Bertrand, the benchmark in biodynamic, organic and non-added sulfite wines, leads the way in Languedoc-Roussillon. Owner of 15 estates in the South of France, all biodynamically farmed, he has proven the excellence of his wines and shown his commitment to environmentally responsible viticulture. This tasting will explore different types of sustainable wines - Organic, Vegan, Sulfite-free and Biodynamic wines. Participants of this tasting will have the opportunity to discover:

• Clos Du Temple 2018, the most iconic rosé wine. Clos du Temple is the result of an alchemy between an exceptional terroir and unparalleled savoir-faire, a strong commitment to biodynamics, all in a unique and symbolically shaped bottle.
• Cigalus white 2018 and Château l’Hospitalet Grand Vin red 2017 are both wonderful reflections of their terroirs. Château l’Hospitalet Grand Vin red 2017 was named the World Champion Red Wine at the International Wine Challenge 2019.
• Naturae Wines 2019. Organic (certified NOP), sulfite-free and vegan, the Naturae wines are produced from top-notch grapes of Chardonnay, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon without the inclusion of any sulfites or additives, they reveal the purest aromas of the grape varietals, closest to the fruit.

Bobby Gilardi, the Beverage Director for Ariete Hospitality Group, is about as Miami as you can get. In fact, his iconic Miami Legends cocktails speak to the very fabric of the city. For this special Magic City Cocktails class, Gilardi will team up with another individual that always brings the party, host Gio Gutierrez, to expose guests to the cocktail culture of Miami - and walk them through the immense passion and creativity that infuses each and every one of Gilardi’s cocktail creations. Broadcast live from SGWS Wynwood, join Gilardi and Gutierrez for a crash course on the Magic City’s favorite libations, that literally screams ‘Welcome to Miami!’
