With regard to Katlav not being there, you have to remember that the fair rotates the boutique wineries that participate each year. So Katlav not being included again this was intentional, but for the right reasons - to give equal time to other worthy boutique outfits. Otherwise, it seems that even as more and more regular folks get into wine seriously, there is a parallel movement of people who enjoy wine for the sake of wine. The existence of the latter group is certainly a welcome phenomenon, but it makes "our" lives more difficult at such fairs, and we will probably have to attend professional trade fairs to get what we are looking for.
