1 GOTHAM WINES Wines with Flavor from South Australia

2 THE WINES  Gotham Regional Vineyard Series and OLD Vines Series  Wine Men Of Gotham  SXS: Success  Stalking Horse

3 GOTHAM Regional Vineyard Series-- $14.99 RRP

4 GOTHAM Old Vine Series:: $25-30 RRP Limited Edition wines from 90-127yr old Vineyards in Barossa Valley. Rated 90-94pts Wine Advocate.

5 ENTER THE GOTHIC MYSTERY The night is black as pitch, rain drops patter against your window and you can hear the clip clop of the headless horseman pacing in the dark alley below. The fire is crackling and you sink into your chair with a well-worn copy of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. You want a deep, brooding wine to match the mood. Complex and spell binging, Gotham is an enigma; a literary concept for a discerning pallet.

6 WHY GOTHAM? Our first wine, a 2004 Langhorne Creek Shiraz… black as night, dark and brooding.

7 WHERE DOES THE NAME COME FROM?  A Literary Concept, referencing Washington Irving’s New York to 14 th century English Nursery Rhymes Above all– serious wine in the bottle, that doesn’t take itself to seriously.

8 NOT YOUR TYPICAL AUSSIE WINE Steering away from the critters, Gotham is a concept which does not play up the Australian category. We focus on regional expressions of Shiraz and Cabernet, which most definitely have fruit forward characters to be enjoyed by new world wine consumers, yet the wines maintain balanced and well integrated structural elements.

9 KEY MESSAGES  Regional Vineyard Series featuring McLaren Vale, Langhorne Creek and Barossa Valley.  Langhorne Creek is clay soil producing a savory wine; McLaren Vale is dark and mineral rich, producing chocolate characters in the wine; Barossa Valley is sandy sometimes loamy soil producing great acidity and bright lush fruit driven wine.  100% Varietals: Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon  Hand-made, low sulfite wine.  Sustainable water conservations farming practises.

10 SELLING STRATEGY  Gotham = Value.  Focus on great quality for the price point.  Education. Show two Shirazes side by side, highlight difference in climate and soil.  Niche accounts who like labels and the stories behind them.  Killer Halloween wine!

11 TARGET CONSUMER  Loves bold full bodied wines with streak of elegance  Thinks of themself as having a dark/ wild side  Moderate wine consumer with a small rotating cellar, but they may hold on to a bottle for a year or two  Regular wine drinkers who pride themselves on finding value  Trend leaders who find cult wines and share the secret with their friends
