Bardstown Bourbon Co. 6 Year Old Single Barrel Cask Strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml) - Whiskey Hunt Australia Selection

Kentucky, UNITED STATES
$169. 99
Bottle
$2039.88 Dozen

ABV: 60.4%

Releasing small amounts of its own bourbon since 2019, Bardstown Distillery has quickly earned a place as one of the most exciting new producers in Kentucky. This high-rye six year old was 'love at first taste' and a unanimous choice for the Whisky Hunt crew, standing out for being "...super balanced, with a fudgey, clean caramel richness that just coats your palate." Produced from a mashbill of 60% corn, 36% rye and 4% malted barley, the nose offers a classic bourbon sniff, rich with caramel, vanilla bean, orange-filled dark chocolates and hints of peppermint, mirrored on the palate with the addition of a little peach nectar. Fine chewy tannins control the sweetness, keeping the delivery taut and structured. Cocoa, a puff of smoke and subtle rye mintiness wrap up the finish in style. Showing almost effortless poise at high proof while offering the best of classic American profiles, this is a great barrel pick. 198 bottles were imported at 60.4% Alc./Vol. Tasted from a 15ml sample.
Notes from the importers... ... Aroma: Oak and orange zest upfront, with layers of brown sugar and light tobacco. Palate: Stone fruits and orange peel lead, followed by oak and brown sugar. A touch of barrel char adds depth, while a Werther’s-style caramel note softens and rounds everything out. Finish: Long, coating, and gently warming, with lingering caramel and spice.

Four thousand five hundred and sixty bottles of this extraordinary wine were made from the 1997 vintage - that's a total of 380 dozen available for the entire world. The Best's Great Western Thomson Family Shiraz is an International Wine Icon. The vines were established in 1869 by Henry Best and 130 years later the wine enters the new Millennium as one of a wine lover's most desirable possessions.
TASTED AGAIN EARLY 2023
Totally opaque black dark red core with a dark red hue. Sailing out of the glass in an intense aromatic profile of blackberry and liquorice which crosses paths with vanillin cedar, mocha, earth, hints of leather and spice. The silky smooth mid weighted palate features blackberry, liquorice, dark plum and vanillin cedar flavours over a back drop of mocha, earthy leather and spice. Velvet smooth tannins. Excellent power with some earthy leather characters lingering right through the long and highly refined finish.
Alc. 14.5%
ORIGNAL TASTING NOTE UPON RELEASE: Each November we anxiously await the release of this wine and with each successive vintage our expectations reach new levels, and yet in the back of our minds we have a nagging tall poppy syndrome - Viv Thomson surely can't produce a better wine than he did last year? He has to falter some time! Viv is too smart to be complacent, and as each vintage is blessed with spectacular fruit, he manages to create its perfect bottle expression. However, when nature turns against him as it did in 1999, there was no Thomson made - severe frosts saw to that. The 1997 Thomson is an expression of Shiraz fruit concentrate. This is almost the perfect wine. When tasted, it achieved the remarkable score of 99.3 out of 100, the highest ranking wine in memory at the time. Opaque crimson colour with mauve edges. Exceptional nose of violets, blackpepper, spice, liquorice allsorts, confectionary, vanilla and an aniseed end note. Totally mouthfilling. Concentrate of Shiraz! Flavours of blackpepper, spice, liquorice and blackcurrant, filling every cavity of the mouth. On the back palate the blackpepper flavour explodes and carrys through the after flavour in an exceptional long aftertaste that lasts for 5 minutes and more. Velvet smooth tannins. Perfect balance. AN AUSTRALIAN TREASURE AND A WONDERFUL PIECE OF HISTORY.
Other Reviews....
Deep, bright purple-red, it has seductive sweet cherry fruit, a hint of spice and finely balanced oak on the bouquet; the concentrated yet smooth and velvety palate has perfectly balanced tannins and oak.

$140. 00
Bottle
$1680.00 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Situated at the highest elevation in Pomerol, the single plot of vines at Chateau Gazin are planted on gravel and clay soils, including some on the famous blue clay shared with their illustrious neighbour Petrus. Current plantings are 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc, while future plans include more plantings of Cabernet Franc in place of Merlot.
Quality has been on a steady rise since the renovation of their winemaking facilities in the 1990's, and the last decade in particular has produced some of the greatest wines in the estate’s history.
Other Reviews...
A blend of 87% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc, the 2025 Gazin unfurls in the glass with notes of plums, dark berries and violets. Medium- to full-bodied, rich and layered, with a dense core of fruit framed by plenty of sweet, powdery tannin, it concludes with a long, youthfully structured finish.
91-93 points
William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Gazin is a fabulous wine. It's deep, rich and powerful but also wonderfully layered in the glass, with real finesse and tons of nuance. Dark red-toned fruit, lavender, mocha, spice and licorice open beautifully. The 2025 impresses with its captivating energy, finely sketched details and sublime balance. Magnificent. Tasted two times Drink 2033-2055.
94-96 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
A juicy and fine tannin texture with currant, raspberry and bark aromas and flavors. It’s medium-bodied and well structured with a caressing finish, all in balance. Very fine and attractive.
96-97 points
James Suckling
Red, blue, and black fruits, sappy flowers, damp earth, and some underbrush nuances all define the 2025 Château Gazin, a medium to full-bodied Pomerol with ripe tannins, nicely integrated acidity, and outstanding length on the finish. It's a ripe, sexy, complex Pomerol that has tons to love. The blend is 87% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the balance Cabernet Franc. Tasted twice.
92-94+ points
Jeb Dunnuck
Black and blue fruit on the nose with some exotic spiced accents. Quite a light take, tannins are impactful and fill the mouth but this is quite closed and quiet for the moment. It has some watery blackcurrant juice but is a bit lifeless at the moment. Coiled and compact. Drink 2030-2044.

2025 Chateau Larcis Ducasse Pre-Arrival Offer

Saint Emilion, Bordeaux, FRANCE
$130. 00
Bottle
$1560.00 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Other Reviews...
Matured 40% in barrels (50% new), 45% in large-format barrels (also 50% new) and the balance in foudres, the 2025 Larcis Ducasse reveals an elegant, vibrant and gourmand bouquet of violet, dark berries, dark cherries and flowers, accented by delicate spicy notes. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and seamless, it’s built around a ripe—yet not overripe—core of fruit framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a floral, harmonious and ethereal finish. This is a pure expression of Larcis Ducasse and one of the most accomplished renditions produced here to date.
95-97 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Larcis Ducasse is another exceptional wine from one of the most under-the-radar estates in Saint-Émilion. Dark red-fleshed fruits, rose petal, lavender, mocha, licorice, sage and graphite are all seamless in the glass. The 2025 marries power with finesse to a degree that is exceptionally rare. Lively acids and lifted floral overtones brighten the long, resonant finish. The 2025 spent 23-24 days on skins, a bit shorter than most years. Élevage takes place in 40% French oak barrels, 40% 500-liter barrels and 20% 25-hectoliter foudre. Wines from clay-based soils tend to be raised in barrique to soften them, while wines from limestone-rich soils are naturally more delicate and typically aged in larger-format wood. Larcis was one of the first properties in Bordeaux to introduce large-format wood, a choice that works so well for this site and these wines. This is a stellar effort from Technical Director David Suire, who has been at the helm since 2022. Tasted three times. Drink 2035-2075.
95-97 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
The 2025 Larcis Ducasse has a gorgeous bouquet already, with pure blackberry and cassis fruit, seamlessly integrated new oak, retaining focus and delineation. The palate is medium-bodied, with very fine lace-like tannins, perfectly judged acidity, bright acids towards the finish upholding tension and a silky texture that is totally disarming. Outstanding. Drink 2033-2060.
95-97 points
Neal Martin - Vinous
Well composed, balanced, seductive and vivid. Medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins. Well shaped, with an inspired and focus mid-palate. Flavorful and lingering finish.
95-96 points
JamesSuckling.com
A Merlot-heavy blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the 2025 Château Larcis Ducasse sports a dense purple hue as well as incredible aromatics of ripe currant and black cherry fruit intermixed with smoky tobacco, graphite, and crushed stone. Aged in a mix of 225-liter barriques (45%), 500-liter demi-muids (40%), and foudres (15%), it checks in at 13.8% alcohol with a pH of 3.5. Deep, rich, and full-bodied on the palate, it has a broad, layered mouthfeel, ripe, velvety tannins, and a great finish. It might end up being in the top handful of wines in the vintage.
97-99 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Gorgeously alive blackcurrant aromas on the nose, so pure and expressive. Silky, a little sharp, the acidity is really the focus here with crystalline strawberry fruit. A bit tight, but the tension really drives the flavours forward with a sleek outline. So smooth, the tannins are excellent, I love the very softly chalky, but also slightly chewy aspect here all the while keeping that quite strict, straight, citrus-edged acidity. It’s a live wire. I like it a lot, needs time, but there’s energy and focus for sure. Piercing, mouthwatering, but ends crisp and grippy. 3.50pH. A yield of 40hl/ha. Drink 2030-2045.

Georgina Hindle - Decanter
Black cherries, plums, violets, licorice, espresso, caramel, black raspberries, licorice, and a hint of mint pop in the nose. Creamy, opulent, sweet, powerful, and also fragrant, fresh, and light on its feet. The palate is drenched in fruits, accompanied by a mineral essence that adds in the length, and the vibrancy to the long, intense finish. One of the wines of the vintage, this is in contention for the best vintage ever produced in the history of Larcis Ducasse. The wine blends 90% Merlot with 10% Cabernet Franc. 13.8% ABV. 3.5 pH. Harvesting took place September 10 - September 19. Yields were 40 hectoliters per hectare. Aging is taking place in a combination of New, French oak barrels, 500 liter barrels, and foundres. Drink from 2030-2065.

2025 Chateau La Lagune Pre-Arrival Offer

Haut Medoc, Bordeaux, FRANCE
$71. 99
Bottle
$863.88 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Other Reviews...
A blend of 50% Merlot, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon and 7% Petit Verdot, the 2025 La Lagune is gourmand and lively, offering up aromas of cassis, mulberries, flowers and lilac. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and enveloping, it's round and fleshy, has good depth at the core and is framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a long, delicate and floral finish. The estate appears to be moving toward a more precise expression, where purity of fruit and finer tannin definition come to the fore. This is one to follow.
91-93 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 La Lagune is fabulous—one of the clear sleepers of the vintage. Bright red-toned fruit, tobacco, cedar, mint and dried flowers convey tremendous intensity with no excess weight. The 2025 is brisk, energetic and loaded with character. Don't miss it. Tasted three times. Drink 2030-2050.
93-95 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
The 2025 La Lagune has a quite ripe and sorbet-fresh nose, mainly red fruit infused with blood orange, even a hint of marmalade. Quite bright, and what seems like a low SO2 vinification. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth tannins, fine acidity, and a dash of black pepper towards the cohesive finish. It just maybe dips a yard or two before the finish line, but this will be a thoroughly enjoyable La Lagune. Drink 2031-2050.
91-93 points
Neal Martin - Vinous
Medium to full body, with notes of stone fruits and a clear sense of nerve, savory, with a stony texture and lip-smacking acidity. Tight and austere.
92-93 points
JamesSuckling.com
Red and black fruits, dried herbs, tobacco, and some spicy wood all emerge from the 2025 Château La Lagune, a great Haut-Médoc estate that's always worth your time and money. Medium-bodied on the palate, it has a pure, graceful mouthfeel, fine tannins, and a good finish. It's a more understated, elegant, balanced, and almost pretty 2025 that should shine with just short-term cellaring. I'd happily buy a case.
91-93 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Gorgeous aromatics – bright red fruit and pink flowers. Tannic and a bit compact right now with dark liquorice and salty stone aspects. Quite tight and firm, I like the cool freshness and purity of the crisp, blueberry fruit but the structure is at the fore right now and this has some compaction. Spiced liquorice and tobacco on the finish. A yield of 20hl/ha. 3.73pH. Drink 2033-2044.

The 2025 La Dominique is terrific. This is one of the best vintages of La Dominique I can remember tasting. Aromatic, silky and exceptionally polished, La Dominique impresses right out of the gate. Bracing saline notes extend the clean, reverberating finish. A sleeper. Drink 2033-2050.
94-96 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
The 2025 La Dominique is a significant step up from the Deuxième Vin this year: vivid red and black fruit, a touch of cedar and a more floral style, with violet and iris flowers. Fine delineation. The palate is well balanced, with rounded, velvety tannins, good depth and a judicious touch of white pepper sprinkled over the finish. This should drink well for 15 to 20 years. Drink 2030-2047.
92-94 points
Neal Martin - Vinous
Focused and curated, with very long, fine tannins that take the wine on a journey. Nicely ripe fruit with berry and light hazelnut undertones. Medium-bodied with a linear and long finish. Plenty of dark berry and dark cherry with lead pencil and flint. This is going to be an excellent wine in the bottle. 85% merlot with 15% cabernet franc.
95-96 points
James Suckling
Deep purple-hued, the 2025 Château La Dominique is a reserved yet clearly promising Saint-Emilion based on 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, raised in 50% new barrels, 35% once-used barrels, and 15% amphora. Ripe black fruits, smoky tobacco, gravelly earth, and graphite all define the nose, and on the palate, it's rich and medium to full-bodied, with ample mid-palate volume, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It checks in at 13.6% alcohol with a pH of 3.68 and is very much on the focused, dense, concentrated side of the vintage.
93-95 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Another excellent vintage from this trusty estate. A cool crystalline nose, cola, liquorice, tar and blueberries. So clean and pure. Crisp and focused from the off, a cooling menthol and blackcurrant element, soft grippy tannins and the most beautiful juicy mid palate that just makes you smile. A happy wine. It’s powerful no doubt but in a restrained way without any heaviness. Vibrant and energetic. I love the focus, the freshness and relatively delicacy. Filing in the month but this is exceptional in terms of fruit purity. Very drinkable. A yield of 30hl/ha. 3.68pH. Drink 2030-2048.

$115. 00
Bottle
$1380.00 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Other Reviews...
Matured in 55% new barrels, the 2025 Haut-Batailley wafts from the glass with aromas of dark wild berries, spices, flowers and licorice, complemented by elegant notes of violet. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it’s built around a fleshy core of fruit framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a long, spicy and taut finish. A very fine wine in the making, it expresses a classical Médoc profile, notably with a fresh, subtly mentholated note on the finish. It's a blend of 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot.
92-94 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Haut-Batailley was picked between September 8 and 18, matured in 55% new oak. This has a more intense, bolder nose than the Verso, graphite-infused black fruit that is Pauillac through and through. Razor-sharp. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, but there is gentle and insistent grip. Sapid, an Haut Batailley that evokes images of the Gironde Estuary, this is a marvellous contribution to the vintage, perhaps the best under Jean-Charles Cazes. Drink 2031-2058.
95-97 points
Neal Martin - Vinous
The 2025 Haut-Batailley is a brooding young Pauillac with a bright future. Dark and brooding, with tons of vertical energy, Haut-Batailley is quite the powerhouse. Black fruit, leather, incense, licorice, dried herbs and mocha are some of the many aromas and flavors that gradually open in the glass. Readers will have to be quite patient, as the tannins are rather imposing, but there's more than enough fruit density to balance things out. Drink 2035-2075.
93-95 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
Medium- to full-bodied with well-placed tannins, a savory element and firm yet fine-grained tannins that add definition. Juicy and precise finish.

Jacobo García Andrade - JamesSuckling.com
Graphite, lead pencil, and a beautiful core of red and black fruits all emerge from the 2025 Château Haut-Batailley, and this beauty showed consistently both times I was able to taste it. Medium to full-bodied, it has nicely integrated oak, a sunny, ripe, layered mouthfeel, and outstanding length. Based on 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 37% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot, I love its overall balance and sheer charm, as well as its classic Pauillac style.
93-95+ points
Jeb Dunnuck
Wild floral scents on the nose with dark berry fruit – blackcurrants and plums. Some tobacco and liquorice too. Plump, wide, round and so smooth, velvety, not fleshy but still well textured so there’s ripeness, grip but also a cooling freshness that really elongates the expression. Lovely purity and clarity. A joyful wine, really smiley, happy and yet not lacking in anything. A soft sweetness and high acidity touch to the fruit. Drink 2030-2038.

As a result of the floods and heavy rains of 1974, long time Sevenhill winemaker Brother John May decided that his Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz were not suitable to be released as in individual wines so he decided to blend them together . Not long after bottling, well-respected Melbourne wine merchant Doug Crittenden tasted the wine and exclaimed it was the closest thing to Pomerol he had ever tasted! Doug knew Brother John and sent him a bottle of his favourite Pomerol wine to taste. Brother John could understand the similarities and was keen to learn more and why the Bordelaise blend Cabernet Sauvignon with other varieties to create their best wines. His research found that Merlot, Malbec and Cabernet Franc each added another dimension to the intense berry characters and firm tannin structure of Cabernet Sauvignon. Merlot contributes violet perfume and has silky tannins that build a bridge to the tannin of Cabernet Sauvignon whilst Malbec imparts more colour and plum-like characters to the blend. The Cabernet Franc component is similar to Cabernet Sauvignon with pronounced aromas of raspberries, blackcurrants and violets. This inspired him plant some of the first of these vines in the Clare Valley which eventually lead to the creation of the St Ignatius blend. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec.

Elderton Command Shiraz is a single vineyard wine that has established a formidable international reputation since the first vintage in 1984. Many years later, the wine is regarded as one of the great wines of the world. The Elderton vineyard is located on the southern edge of the Nuriootpa township and planted on deep alluvial silt over red and brown earth and limestone. The majority of the rows are orientated east-west (as opposed to the more common orientation of north-south). This enables cooling breezes from the Barossa Ranges to flow through the rows of vines rather than against them. The Command block is planted out with Shiraz vines that are over 100 years old which contributes to the monumental layers of flavour and complexity.

The Leeuwin Estate Art Series Chardonnay is consistently rated as Australia’s greatest white wine by international judges. So why is this wine so special given that Leeuwin has 98 acres of Chardonnay vines planted? Of the 98 acres, the vineyard is divided into 10 blocks and it is the fruit from Block 20 which forms the backbone of the Art Series Chardonnay. The original vines are now over 30 years old and have been identified as the Gin Gin clone. The terroir of Block 20 is unique. The vineyard is exposed to north and west sunlight and has been planted on mid to low slopes. The granitic soils are some of Australia’s oldest and most leached which makes them textbook perfect for ultra premium Chardonnay. However the vineyard is only one part of the jigsaw that make up this extraordinary wine. The winemaking is meticulous and very considered with the deliberate objective to produce a complex, multi-layered wine.

Woodstock The Stocks Shiraz is one of McLaren Vale’s great wines and given its pedigree and quality it is still relatively ‘unknown’ compared to some of its neighbouring high flyers.
The winemaking team of Scott Collett and Ben Glaetzer have left a strong footprint on this wine, producing complexity and voluptuousness and adding the ability to mature over the next few years. The fruit is sourced from 100 year old vines planted at Woodstock in McLaren Flat. Fermentation takes place in small open fermenters with maturation in new oak. The winemakers recommend ‘breathing after decanting of older Woodstock The Stocks, in order to help the older wines focus their individual character’.

Cellar: Drink now - 6 Years (2026-2032)

ABV: 12.5%

Closure: Stelvin

From one of Western Australia’s most well known wineries and arguably the state’s premier producer of Shiraz and Riesling comes this certified organic Riesling at an amazing price.
Powerful and concentrated, this super scrumptious Riesling delivers ripping value.
Brilliant very pale straw almost water like colour with a subtle green tinge to the outskirts. Lemon and lime aromas burst out of the glass trailed by some orange rind, talc and chalky mineral notes. Super scrumptious, the palate features lime, citrus and orange rind fruits over a green apple, chalky talc and mineral back drop. Boasting superb concentration and drive, crisp acidity underlines the long, crunchy, mineral laced finish.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.
Alc. 12.5%
Other Reviews….
Plenty of juicy flavour here and I’m thinking lime, green apple, a pinch of spice and some lavender and thyme perfume. I like the chalky and stony feel it has, there’s plenty of fresh lime juice acidity, with a finish of excellent length. No shortage of energy and focus, and it’s very good vintage for this wine – the best to date I’d say. Drink 2026-2030+

Gary Walsh – The Wine Front
A clean and clear whipcrack of a riesling that does great justice to the variety in a simple and very pleasing way. Lime, lemon curd, gingery spice, a big slosh of green apple and a core of briny minerality doing well here. Yes, thanks. Hugely refreshing, a little compact and puckering, too. Masters of this variety, the more or less entry-level offering here is an absolute ripper. Drink by 2031.
93 Points
Mike Bennie – James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion
The 2025 ******* Riesling leads with lime blossom and lavender soap, green apple and brine. The palate is slatey and fine, packed with flavor and long through the finish. This is so typical of Great Southern Riesling, in all the best ways. It has fruit power and weight yet remains light and fresh. The acidity is focused and taut, and the structure is sure. These are great wines, and this is a great value. 12.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2026-2036.

2025 Domaine de Chevalier Pre-Arrival Offer

$1320.00 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Situated in the Graves, Domaine de Chevalier have 65 hectares under vine planted to 63% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 5% Petit Verdot, and 2% Cabernet Franc for the red wine, and 70% Sauvignon Blanc and 30% Semillon for the white.
Other Reviews...
The 2025 Domaine de Chevalier, a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot, was harvested between September 11 and 26—an unusually early finish—with yields of 35 hectoliters per hectare. It reveals a bouquet marked by oak, with notes of spice, dark berries, lead pencil and licorice. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and deep, it’s built around a substantial chassis of tannins and framed by powdery, youthful structure, concluding with a long, firm and structured finish, reflecting the wine’s inherent density.
93-95 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Domaine de Chevalier is a total stunner. The oak imprint is a bit strong, but the 2025 possesses notable richness and textural depth to handle it all. Signature red-toned fruit and floral overtones soar through the layered, expansive close. Drink 2033-2075.
95-97 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
The depth of fruit comes through clearly, with a medium body and plenty of berry, chocolate, walnut and bark aromas. Creamy and polished, with a lovely texture and a long and rather endless finish. Soft and precise. 65% cabernet sauvignon, 30% merlot and 5% petit verdot.
97-98 points
James Suckling
Currants, smoky tobacco, dried flowers, graphite, and leather all emerge from the 2025 Domaine De Chevalier, a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot from yields of 34 hectoliters per hectare. It brings back memories of old school wines from the 1980s with its ultra-classic, ripe style, yet still checks in at just 12.5% alcohol with a pH of 3.64. Medium-bodied on the palate, it’s beautifully balanced and layered, with ripe tannins and a great finish. This is a concentrated yet elegant Chevalier where the cellar will be your friend.
93-95 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Aromas of plum, raspberry, loam and wet stone minerality suggest the pedigree beneath. The palate is decidedly structured, almost reminiscent of grape skins tasted at harvest, with a firm, tightly wound tannic frame. A more muscular style of Domaine de Chevalier. At 12.5% alcohol and a pH of 3.71, the wine walks a fine line: the freshening acidity (particularly on the finish) both lifts and accentuates the abundant tannins. For now, it remains firm, but the underlying material is strong and should harmonise with élevage, making full barrel ageing key to unlocking a full expression. Tasted three times with two more positive impressions, the score reflects the wine’s anticipated evolution rather than its current state. Drink 2030-2045.

The Domaine de Chevalier 2025 Blanc reveals an expressive bouquet of white fruits—pear and white peach—alongside floral notes. Medium- to full-bodied, it’s dense yet remarkably fresh and precise, with a crystalline, ethereal profile. Both aromatic and concentrated, it combines depth with clarity, concluding with a long, ethereal and perfumed finish. Once again, this is a fine success and surely one of the most precise white wines produced in Bordeaux this year.
93-95 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Domaine de Chevalier Blanc gets my vote for the white wine of the vintage. Rich and powerful in the glass, but also beautifully vibrant, the 2025 dazzles from start to finish. Lemon confit, pear, slate, mint, white flowers and tangerine peel are some of the many aromas and flavors that develop over time. The 2025 is quite simply stunning. Don’t miss it! Drink 2033-2075.

Antonio Galloni - Vinous
A tight and powerful wine with a precise and structured texture. Restrained, steely and racy. Goes on for minutes. So much intensity. A bright and shining white. Stunning balance. Alcohol 13.5%. A blend of 70% sauvignon blanc and 30% semillon.
98-99 points
James Suckling
A terrific, serious white from this reference point estate outside of Léognan, the 2025 Domaine De Chevalier Blanc reveals orchard fruits, spice, and crushed stone on the nose. It's rich and medium to full-bodied on the palate, with nicely integrated acidity, ample mid-palate depth, and a great finish. It's going to need just a few years of bottle age to come together.
94-96 points
Jeb Dunnuck
The cooler microclimate at this estate favours hot and dry weather, and this proved no exception in 2025. I tasted this wine no less than five times at different locations (négociant Joanne, CVGB, Pessac–Léognan group tasting, at the estate, too), always enjoying the exciting combination of freshness and white stone fruit fleshiness expressed in a suave palate texture with nuance and refinement, evoking Meursault–like depth and opulence. 'We picked later, including after the rains of late August, to get more breadth in the palate,' remarked owner Olivier Bernard. That – and a long finish. A great success! Drink 2028-2038.

It checks in at a modest 12.5% alcohol.
93-95 points
William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Duhart-Milon offers a captivating mix of brilliant red-toned fruit, blood orange, pomegranate and wild flowers. Readers will find a Duhart that bristles with energy. The purity of the flavors is just captivating. It's one of my favorite recent vintages here because of its vibrancy and textural finesse. The blend is 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot, picked from early to mid-September, always a few days later than at Lafite. Drink 2030-2040.

A juicy and savory red with blackberry, chocolate, dried meat and earth aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied with plenty of flavor and a forest floor aftertaste. Ripe tannins. A blend of 73% cabernet sauvignon and 27% merlot.
95-96 points
James Suckling
A Cabernet-dominant blend of 73% Cabernet Sauvignon and 27% Merlot, the 2025 Château Duhart-Milon opens with beautiful Pauillac aromatics of cassis and black raspberries intermixed with graphite, lead pencil, violets, and chalky minerality. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has a pure, graceful, seamless mouthfeel, remarkable purity, and just gorgeous tannins. It has a certain understated elegance that grows on you with time in the glass.
93-95 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Fragrant blackcurrants and dried herbs on the nose. Really succulent and grippy straight away, immediately so charming and soft, almost creamy with a touch of powdery tannins – but such depth and concentration of fruit – ripe but still cool, you get flesh but freshness too. Such great construction – nothing over the top. There’s fleshy tannins, round mouthfeel but such elegance and refinement with the vein of bright, tangy, driving acidity that just carries the overall expression. So long. Brilliant. 13% press wine. 2033-2050.

The 2025 Château du Tertre, a blend of 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 18% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Franc and 6% Petit Verdot (40% new oak), reveals a bouquet of dark wild berries and spice along with discreet, well-integrated oak.

92-94 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Château du Tertre was picked 8 to 22 September and matured in 40% new oak. It is cohesive and focused on the nose, plenty of graphite-infused black fruit that nudges it stylistically towards Pauillac. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with, again, quite a Pauillac-like entry thanks to that graphite edge. Well defined with satisfying length, this is a classy du Tertre, one of the best I have tasted from barrel. Drink 2031-2050.
92-94 points
Neal Martin - Vinous
The texture and depth are really impressive for this chateau and might be its best wine ever. It’s medium-bodied with integrated and refined tannins, a powdery and textured mouthfeel and an endless finish. Floating on the pure fruit. 65% cabernet sauvignon, 18% merlot, 11% cabernet franc and 6% petit verdot.

A pretty, perfumed wine, the 2025 Château Du Tertre offers ample cassis and exotic blue fruits intermixed with spicy oak and herbal and floral nuances. Medium-bodied on the palate, it has fine, polished tannins, nicely integrated acidity, and remarkable purity, precision, and elegance. It's one of those underrated, complex wines that builds beautifully with time in the glass, and it might match or even exceed the 2022. Bravo.
93-95 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Ripe red fruit and exotic spiced notes on the nose. Juicy, succulent and clean, this has great energy and such well integrated tannins so that they give the frame and structure but very lightly letting the raspberry and red cherry fruit speak as well as a soft wet stone and flint touches. Refined and elegant and really approachable too. I like this a lot. One to watch. 3.58pH. 70 IPT. 75% of grand vin. Ageing 40% new oak, 60% one-year-old barrels. Drink 2029-2045.

The 2025 Malartic Lagravière is a dark, sumptuous beauty. Black cherry, menthol, licorice, dried herbs, chocolate and cloves convey virile, almost somber, intensity. Muscular tannins add to that impression. The 2025 is going to need time to be at its most expressive, but it has a ton of potential. Tasted three times. Drink 2033-2050.

Round and ripe aromas of blackcurrants and bramble fruit on the nose. Supple and juicy but smooth and velvety too – almost cream with a soft powdery aspect to the tannins and a vein of blueberry acidity going from start too finish which keeps this quite linear. A nice combination of structure and accessibility. Well balanced, mouthwatering with a crisp, juicy and extremely fresh aspect almost with an iodine, oyster shell salinity which lingers. Lovely. Delicate and long. Very good. A yield of 38hl/ha. 0.5% Cabernet Franc completes the blend. Drink 2030-2045.

The 2025 Malartic-Lagravière Blanc has a well-defined nose, but perhaps like the Domaine de Chevalier Blanc, it feels bashful at this early stage. The palate is well balanced, with a peachy entry and, here, it is more expressive, with hints of mango and Clementine, just a little oak guiding the finish. Not quite up there with the outstanding '24, but close. Drink 2028-2043.

This is so classy, with polish, transparency, a medium body and fresh acidity. Linear and racy, with a bright, icy finish and a steely and lightly bitter character at the end. An outstanding white.

James Suckling
A blend of 73% Sauvignon Blanc and 27% Sémillon raised six months on its lees in 50% new barrels with the balance in once-used oak, the 2025 Château Malartic-Lagravière Blanc is a richer yet still fresh, beautifully balanced white. Melon, honeyed mint, and a touch of minerality all define the aromatics, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with integrated acidity and a clean finish. I love its purity, as well as its length.
94-96 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Freshly picked orchard fruit on the nose – expressive and alive with hints of dried herbs, hay and vanilla. Juicy and softly succulent, this has a nice balance between creamy white fruit and crisp apple fruit. Quite a delicate take for Malartic with the focus on purity and delicacy rather than weight and fullness. Less lively than it can be, but still there’s a soft mouthwatering aspect. It’s sophisticated and round with nice complexity. The cooling element really lingers. No bitterness. A yield of 36hl/ha. 3.3pH. Drink 2026-2036.

$66. 99

A particularly accomplished effort, the 2025 Sociando-Mallet reveals a layered bouquet of mulberries, cassis, raspberry and spice. Medium- to full-bodied, it combines density with a controlled sense of power, built around a supple, well-defined core of fruit framed by a seamless tannic structure. The finish is long and gently ethereal, marked by notes of lead pencil and dark berries. While faithful to the estate’s identity, it shows greater precision and a more integrated profile than in recent vintages, a result of very low yields, sulfur-free vinification enhancing aromatic clarity and an extended maceration.

Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Sociando-Mallet is a total head-turner. What a wine. Dark and explosive, with tons of energy, the 2025 is fabulous right out of the gate. Supple contours and plush dark fruit announce an important wine of tremendous pedigree and character. Dark red/blue fruit and exotic spice tones lend richness and vibrancy, while brisk acids convey salivating energy. Drink 2033-2055.

A smoky, cool and crisp nose. Ripe on the palate, softly chewy with fleshy blackcurrant but also high acidity, liquorice and salty, flint accents on the finish. Quite tight and restrained, focused and all in one line. A little firm but well balanced just less immediately lively than some. A little one tight still. I imagine after ageing this will round out nicely. Drink 2028-2036.

Closure: Cork
Chateau Cheval Blanc has been at the forefront of viticulture and cellar technology all the way back to the 1800’s, and with their recent renovation works they again have some of the most modern facilities in the region. While situated in Saint-Emilion, much of the vineyard holdings are adjacent to the Pomerol plateau, which goes some way to explaining the often rich, voluptuous style of their wines. Currently planted to 49% Cabernet Franc, 47% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, vineyard rework is aiming to bring the mix back to the original proportions of 55% Cabernet Franc, 40% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.
Other Reviews...
A blend of 51% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Franc and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2025 Château Cheval Blanc stands out once again as among the finest wines of the vintage in Bordeaux. Wafting from the glass with a deep bouquet of dark berries and cherries mingled with notions of blood orange and iris, it's full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with terrific mid-palate density, sweet tannins and a long, vibrant, violet-inflected finish. With its striking aromas, intensity of flavor and resolutely classical proportions (checking in at 12.7% alcohol and pH of 3.76), the 2025 gives every indication of being one of the great Cheval Blancs of the decade.

William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Cheval Blanc is seamless and textured. A wine of mystery and seduction, the 2025 dazzles. Time in the glass brings out the wine's tension and energy. Sage, mint, lavender, cloves and cool, blue-toned fruit all build in the glass. In one tasting, Cheval Blanc was massively tannic; in a second tasting, those tannins were much more seamless, highlighting how differently wines can show from day to day. In the case of Cheval Blanc, en primeur samples are mini-bottlings, and both samples I tasted came from the same batch.
Yields in 2025 were just 15 hectoliters per hectare, tiny by any measure. The winemaking team, led by Pierre-Olivier Clouet, used 46 of the 47 parcels on the estate for the Grand Vin. A small amount of wine was sold in bulk; the rest was bottled as Grand Vin. There is no Petit Cheval. Time on skins ran from 26 to 32 days, longer than the 22-28 that's more typical. For those who care about the data, alcohol is just 12.7%, which is hard to believe, with brisk acids that clock in at 3.76 pH. In many vintages Cheval Blanc can be exuberant, but the 2025 is rather closed, more of an intellectual wine that will require years in bottle to truly show everything it has to offer. Drink 2035-2075.

Perfumed, with aromas of flowers, brambleberries and wild berries. Medium-bodied with tight, fine tannins that run forever on the palate. Hints of cedar, mushrooms and bark. Crunchy at the end. Just a hint of fancy bitterness and chocolate. Transparent and complete.

A saturated purple hue, the 2025 Château Cheval Blanc is a unique, dense, powerful, and streamlined Cheval Blanc with remarkable purity. The nose offers lots of red, blue, and black fruits intermixed with floral, graphite, and inky nuances, and on the palate, it's powerful and medium to full-bodied, tasting like the distilled essence of this château. It has ripe, polished tannins, beautiful overall balance, and a great finish, although it certainly has very little in the way of baby fat or opulence. Based on 51% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Franc, and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, with yields of just 15 hectoliters per hectare (no Petit Cheval was produced), it checks in at just 12.7% alcohol with a pH of 3.76. The vintage draws comparisons to 1961 and 1949, and it's going to be incredibly interesting to follow this wine's evolution over the next 40-50 years.

Jeb Dunnuck
One of the lowest yields of Cheval Blanc ever at just 15hl/ha with no Petit Cheval made this year. Chinese five spice, cedar, cinnamon, rose buds, soy, purple flowers, blackcurrants and cherries on the nose. Supple and fleshy, round and enveloping yet softly chalky so you get weight but not massive density in the glass. Tannins are wonderful and the power comes underneath not at the fore. Suave, fresh and floats along the palate – generous yet reined in, glossy, bright with lovely acidity. Almost a bit shy and quiet but so well controlled. I love it for its delicacy and hands-off approach. Definitely not a showstopper but given the conditions it’s incredible how they ended up here. Complex, charming, soft, pretty and delicious without trying too hard at all. 3.76pH. Drink 2033-2050.

Purple in hue, the wine explodes with an array of flowers, smoky truffles, black plums, black cherries, blue fruits, orange rind, tobacco leaf, licorice, and chocolate in the perfume. However, the palate is the main event. The mouthfeel perfectly balances its hedonistic tendencies with a touch of reticence, in a good way. There is length, volume, intensity, opulence, and lift. The seamless finish provides silk and velvet tannins, allowing the depth and purity of the fruit to stand out in the extensive, vibrant finish. The key to the vintage was the combination of a dry summer, which lowered yields, and the much-needed August rains, which brought about full maturity. 46 of 47 parcels were placed into the blend. It is important to note that no second wine was produced. Even more importantly, very little Cheval was produced. Yields were a scant 15 hectoliters per hectare, making this the lowest yields in the history of the estate. The wine is made from 51% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Franc, 4% Cabernet Sauvignon. 12.7% ABV, 3.6 pH. The harvest began September 18 for the Merlot, finishing their Cabernet Franc on October 3. Drink from 2030-2070.

2025 Chateau L'Evangile Pre-Arrival Offer

Pomerol, Bordeaux, FRANCE
$299. 00
Bottle
$3588.00 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Long considered one of the top three wines of Pomerol (along with Petrus and Vieux Chateau Certan), Chateau L’Evangile is planted to 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc and produce a full bodied, rich, opulent, and long lived wine. The Chateau is under the same ownership as Chateau Lafite Rothschild.
Other Reviews...
The 2025 L'Evangile is showing well, bursting with aromas of sweet cherries, dark berries, spices and licorice, framed by nicely integrated oak. On the palate, it's medium- to full-bodied, with a rather rich, powerful profile, built around ripe but youthfully structuring tannins. It's a blend of 87% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc, some 40% of which is being matured in foudre. The vintage conditions, which produced very small berries (as little as 0.6 grams for Cabernet Franc growing on gravel), have delivered an Evangile of unusual density.
93-95 points
William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 L'Évangile has been given new impetus by winemaker Juliette Couderc. It is initially backward, but it really comes forth with a few swirls of the glass: black cherries, mint and juniper berries, just a hint of truffle, quite vibrant and vivacious. Wonderful delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins, a fine bead of acidity, superb minéralité, as if there were a bit of limestone soil, but there is none. Very saline on the aftertaste with impressive length. This is a marvellous L'Évangile given the growing season, and it seems imbued with so much personality. Drink 2032-2060.

Neal Martin - Vinous
The aromas of blackberries, black olives and hints of tobacco and dried fruit are fascinating and enticing. It’s medium- to full-bodied with creamy and polished tannins and a savory finish. Turns refined and focused after the layered fruit. Classic in character, with a caressing texture and balance. Hints of ripe fruit and freshness at the same time. 86% merlot, 13% cabernet franc and 1% cabernet sauvignon.
97-98 points
James Suckling
A Merlot-heavy blend of 86% Merlot, 13% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Cabernet Sauvignon harvested between August 26th and September 15th, the 2025 Château L'Evangile will spend time in 40% new barrels, 40% foudre, 5% amphora, and the rest in once-used barrels. It has lots of cassis and juicy cherry fruit intermixed with graphite, lead pencil, violets, and classy oak on the nose, and it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with a pure, focused mouthfeel, fine tannins, and outstanding length. Checking in at 13.7% alcohol with a pH of 3.75, it's a serious, concentrated 2025 that brings considerable structure, remarkable purity, and a great finish.
95-97+ points
Jeb Dunnuck
Nice plump roundness on the palate with a touch of strawberry acidity to bring some life and lift. Quite serious, fine tannins, a cool crisp, blue fruit edge with a lot of liquorice and wet stone aspects – a mineral, salty, spiced grip on the finish. I like the frame, not too heavy but it’s still quite tight. I don’t find the density of 2022 or 2023 but there’s definitely charm on offer in a cool, serious way right now with a hint of gloss. Ageing 5% amphora. 40% foudre. 45% new oak. 10% used barrels. 3,7pH. A yield of 22hl/ha. Drink 2033-2048.

$72. 99

Closure: Cork
Other Reviews...
The 2025 de Fieuzal, harvested between September 4 and 26, is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. It wafts from the glass with aromas of cassis, mulberries, wisteria and flowers. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and precise, it’s built around a fleshy core of fruit framed by velvety, finely grained tannins and concludes with a long, ethereal and perfumed finish. More structured than usual, it remains well balanced, supported by lively acidity and a subtle, gastronomic bitterness on the finish. It's a classical expression and one of the more compelling values in Bordeaux this year.
94-96 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Château de Fieuzal has an understated bouquet with red berry fruit, sous-bois and light marine scents that gradually opens up with aeration. I would have liked to have seen more vigour in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with an edgy opening. More herbaceous than expected, it almost seems there was a bit of stem addition à la Les Carmes! It does cohere a little in the glass, so I am intrigued to see how it shows in bottle, though I remain prudent with my score for now. Drink 2028-2037.

Ripe black cherries, assorted blue fruits, graphite, and freshly sharpened pencil notes all define the 2025 Château De Fieuzal, a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and 10% Petit Verdot that's being raised in 40% new French oak with the balance in once-used barrels and 10% amphora. Medium to full-bodied on the palate, it has a concentrated, layered mouthfeel, remarkable purity, and a great finish. The purity and quality of the tannins are first-rate, and this is a brilliant Pessac-Léognan in the making.

Jeb Dunnuck
Ripe red and blackberry fruit aromas introduce a palate with freshening acidity that in this case enhances the impression of juicy, succulent fruit, not hard tannins. The finish is long and flavorful, reinforcing the wine’s balance between ripeness and energy, making it a compelling en primeur showing. A second tasting at Château Olivier the same day found the wine a touch tighter and more reserved, but the underlying quality and harmony remain clear. Drink 2030-2044.

The 2025 Kirwan takes a little time to settle in the glass, but it is worth the wait as it coalesces and reveals very seductive blackberry and blueberry fruit, pressed violet and light undergrowth scents. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with silky, smooth tannins, a keen line of acidity, velvety and caressing, with ample weight on the quintessentially Margaux finish. What a beautiful wine in the making. Drink 2032-2055.

Juicy red and blue fruits, spicy wood, graphite, and plenty of exotic floral nuances all define the 2025 Château Kirwan. Medium-bodied on the palate, it has juicy acidity and nicely integrated, soft tannins. I suspect this charming, complex, satisfying Margaux will shine right out of the gate.
92-94 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Great florality on the nose, juicy, succulent, crisp and ripe at the same time. This has energy and life, still compact and fully tannic but I like the confidence and upfront nature. They haven’t held back here but managed a fun, fruity, grippy and full of life style with refined edges and plenty of underlying power. Mint, liquorice, tobacco and wet stones on the finish. Very good. 4% Petit Verdot and 1% Carmenere complete the blend. Drink 2032-2043.

2024 Nicks Secret YP Barossa Valley Shiraz

Barossa Valley, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
Reduced from $29.99
$14. 99
Bottle
$179.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 4 Years (2026-2030)

ABV: 13.4%

Closure: Stelvin

Produced by a husband and wife team whose wines have previously featured under our Nicks Secret guise, this Shiraz is sourced from a number of different Barossa sub districts with maturation taking place in seasoned French oak.
Rich, lush and plump yet possessing a savoury edge, this is a classic modern-day rendition of Barossa Shiraz that delivers unbelievable value.
Midnight black at its core with a dark red black tinged hue. Intense dark plum, liquorice and blueberry scents infused with spice and peppered fennel like accents sail through the olfactory senses. Subtle vanillin cedar and dried herb notes also chime in. Rich and plush, layered across the medium to full bodied palate are succulent dark plum, liquorice and ripe blueberry fruits. Infusions of herbs du Provence, vanillin spice, fennel and pepper lurk underneath. Velvet smooth tannins finishing long, plump and lush yet with a savoury edge.
Drink over the next 3-4 years.
Alc. 13.4%
Other Reviews….
Using that whole cluster and early picking approach that was adopted with the Grenache Cinsault Mourvèdre blend, the result is a wine of immense vibrancy and energy. It was treated fairly kindly in the winery, with natural fermentation in open fermenters, and then time in oak before basket pressing. It only had a short time in oak, but that was an important part of the process, bringing everything together in a harmonious way. Lovely jubey red fruits with those cherry, plummy mulberry characters evident. Smooth, textured, with almost no oak evident, but the fruit is exceptional. Drink 2025-2033.

Black Tot Historic Solera Caribbean Rum (700ml)

Caribbean,
$159. 99
Bottle
$1919.88 Dozen

ABV: 46.2%

Elixir Distillers have been back at the blending table working on the latest addition to the Black Tot range. Named 'Historic Solera' and composed of rums aged in both tropical and European environments, the mix includes 40% 3-5 Year Old Guyana Pot/Column distilled rums, 35% 5 Year Old Barbados Pot/Column still blended rum, 20% Unaged Guyana Pot/Column blended rum and 5% 3 Year Old Jamaica High Ester Pot Still rum. Maturation took place in ex-bourbon barrels, seasoned with Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso sherries followed by further ageing in a traditional three-tier Solera process. They claim it gives the product a depth and consistency that cannot be replicated using seasoned casks or a vatting alone. The final rum was bottled non-chill filtered with no added sugar. This is set to remain part of Black Tot's core range, as the Solera system casks are never fully emptied, meaning the remaining rum continually ages and promises more depth and nuance as younger liquid is added to the increasingly aged stock. 46.2% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... The combination of proper Oloroso, esters and old oak gives this a decidely sour and slightly winey edge along with the dark fruits. Overall it leans firmly towards the sherry, creating a brandy-like style that could disappoint die-hard rum lovers, in my opinion. I think it is a rather unique product, but the rum is pushed to the background. - whiskynotes.be
...From the Chicago Rum festival, this was a highlight I was looking for early. Some folks were on the fence about this one but I enjoyed the sample a lot. This is not Masters Reserve standards but not far off. a much elevated Caribbean's finest offering. The blend and resulting flavors work well for me but what really makes a difference is the Sherry finish. Not too sweet, not too dry - just perfect. This feels like a cold Friday night by a warm fire pour - multiple pours. I'm a fan and not an outrageous price. - rumratings.com

Zuidam Jonge Genever (Jenever) (1000ml)

NETHERLANDS
$84. 99
Bottle
$1019.88 Dozen

ABV: 35%

This Jonge Genever is a special recipe developed by Patrick van Zuidam. The mash is composed of equal parts rye, corn and malted barley distilled three times after fermentation and then distilled again with a special blend of botanicals featuring juniper and liquorice as well as various other aromatic herbs and spices. This results in an unaged, fruity and fresh genever. 35% Alc./Vol.
The Zuidam Distillery was started back in 1975 by Fred van Zuidam as a deliberately contained operation with one small copper still. It took more than a decade to forge their present reputation as the finest distillery in the Netherlands. In 1989 Zuidam expanded their warehouse to 600 square meters and one production line. Presently, both sons, Patrick and Gilbert, run the distillery under the watchful eyes of their parents. With four brand new copper stills, over 1000 oak barrels, four production lines and modern tank storage, Zuidam is now a state of the art operation, however, they have held on to one throwback from the past - Windmills. These are used to mill the grains destined for their Genevers and Malt Whisky. It not only preserves this iconic piece of Dutch heritage, but more importantly, the producers believe that the traditional slow grind causes almost no increase in the temperature of the grains and thus helps preserve the wonderful aromas.

Williams & Humbert Don Guido 20 Year Old Solera Special Pedro Ximenez Sherry (500ml)

Jerez, SPAIN
$109. 99
Bottle
$1319.88 Dozen

ABV: 18%

Closure: Cork

Other reviews... Don Guido is the oldest Pedro Ximénez wine in the range of bodegas Williams & Humbert. It is one of three VOS / VORS sherries of the house (20+ years old in this case). Guy (Guido) Williams (1889-1959) was the son of Alexander Williams and Amy Humbert. His father had come to Jerez in the 1860s to work in the bodegas Wisdom & Warter, where he met his wife and later (1877) set up the Williams & Humbert business with his brother in law Arthur Humbert. Don Guido started working in the business just before the first World War while also becoming the viceconsul of Britain in Spain. The Pedro Ximénez grapes for this wine are dried in the sun for 15 days before being pressed, and the musts are immediately fortified to 9%. They are then decanted, filtered, fortified further to 18% and added to the solera where they stay for at least 20 years. The bottled wine contains around 380 grams of sugar per liter. Nose: full of prunes, dried figs and sweet raisins. Caramelized sugar, sticky toffee pudding and cocoa nibs. Very sweet of course, but nicely balanced with spicy notes (pepper, cinnamon) and light herbal notes. Its age also brings out a hint of polished oak. Mouth: concentrated with a low acidity and an impressive viscosity, yet it’s easy to drink. Chocolate coated raisins, dates and hints of Dutch liquorice. Some nutty notes and spices. A very light mentholated edge. Ends with a hint of Turkish coffee. - sherrynotes.com
...Rich and pruney, with bold, reduced black fruit aromas along with chocolate and spice. Compact and delicious in the mouth, with caramel, black coffee and other yummy, unctuous flavors.

$2039.88 Dozen

ABV: 48%

There have been a handful of distillers who've experimented with native timbers. Backwoods is one of the latest efforts, with a single malt made from Australian-grown barley, smoked using native red gum wood, and matured for five years in American oak casks that previously held corn whisky. Fewer than 200 bottles have been produced, making it one of their smallest releases to date! 48% Alc./Vol.
Notes from the producers... On the nose, it opens with perfumed smoke — soft, aromatic, and inviting — layered with rich honey, ripe cherry, and a gentle nuttiness. The palate is smooth yet expressive, where smoke and sweetness move in harmony. Fruity honey and stone fruit richness meet toasted almond and subtle tobacco, all carried by a buttery depth that gives the whisky its weight and texture. The finish is long and evolving — browned butter, soft oak, and lingering campfire smoke that slowly fades, leaving a warming, nostalgic impression.

Bottle
$1440.00 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Other Reviews...
Notes of dark berries, cassis, spices and licorice, mingled with delicately oaky nuances, preface the 2025 Laroque. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it’s built around a rich core of fruit that is framed by youthful, structured tannins and concludes with a taut, saline finish. While the bouquet shows a darker register, the palate remains fresh, lending the wine an elegant austerity that should integrate further with élevage.
91-93 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Laroque is a gorgeous, super-elegant wine. Vibrant, salivating acids and beams of tannin are the first signs we are on the clay/limestone plateau in Saint-Émilion's Saint-Christophe-des-Bardes sector. Blood orange, mint, chalk and white pepper bleed into a core of red-toned fruit. Medium in body, with striking energy and tension, Laroque is positively stellar in 2025. This is another superb showing from the team led by Technical Director David Suire. Tasted two times. Drink 2033-2055.

The balance of savory fruit with fine tannins is already so attractive. It’s medium-bodied with fine tannins and a refined finish.
93-94 points
James Suckling
Tasted twice with consistent results, the 2025 Château Laroque is a gorgeous wine in the making based on 99% Merlot and 1% Cabernet Franc that will spend 16 to 18 months in a mix of new barriques, second-use barrels, and foudre. Cassis and black raspberry fruits, graphite, spring flowers, and violet nuances all shine on the nose, and it's medium-bodied on the palate, with a pure, graceful mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It shows the more focused, structured style of the vintage, yet the tannins are remarkably polished. Checking in at 13.8% alcohol with a pH of 3.4 and yields of 31 hectoliters per hectare, this is a brilliant effort from this Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé that's going to have some early accessibility yet also evolve gracefully.
94-96 points
Jeb Dunnuck
Another great success and value pick for Laroque. Really aromatically complex. Ripe and pristine black bramble berries on the nose, perfumed and nicely fragrant. Lovely aromatic purity. Smooth and so silky, smooth, svelte as Laroque does so well. Mouthwatering with bright acidity but so juicy – strawberry and cherry with a hint of cranberry and soft accents of dried herbs liquorice and wet stones. Grippy but so charming even at this point. Tension with freshness, perfectly polished and friendly. A yield of 31hl/ha with varying yields depending on the terroir from 25-45hl/ha. 3.40pH. Drink 2030-2048.

2025 Chateau Belgrave Pre-Arrival Offer

Haut Medoc, Bordeaux, FRANCE
$57. 99
Bottle
$695.88 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Other Reviews...
The 2025 Belgrave reveals an attractive bouquet of dark berries, cassis, mulberries and spice, becoming more floral with aeration. Medium- to full-bodied, fleshy and enveloping, it’s structured and tannic, with good length, concluding with a gently lead pencil–inflected finish. The gravelly terroir asserts itself more clearly than in recent vintages, lending the wine added finesse and a more defined mineral edge.
91-93 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Belgrave is impressive. Aromatic, deep and layered, Belgrave has so much to offer. Blue-toned fruits, lavender, espresso and chocolate are front and center. The 2025 is juicy but quite structured. It appears to have a very bright future. Floral overtones extend the nuanced finish. Tasted two times. Drink 2030-2045.
91-93 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
A precise and characterful wine with aromas of black currants, black cherries and crushed stones. Medium-bodied with a juicy finish. Terrific wine. Only 13% alcohol. Cabernet sauvignon, merlot and petit verdot.
93-94 points
James Suckling
Juicy and lively, supple and fleshy with a strawberry juice vein – a little chalky still on the mid-palate – just losing some of the initial vibrancy but this has lots of tannin presence with a long, salty, cola grip. I like the depth and the frame, this is one that will benefit from ageing. Cool wild blueberry notes on the nose. Fully tannic but bouncy and soft, really cushioning with blueberry. I like the purity and focus, it’s a little light in terms of persistence but there’s balance and it'll round out. Harvest 3rd September until the 19th. 13%. A yield of 24hl/ha. Pénélope Godefroy now technical director across the Maison Dourthe portfolio. Drink 2033-2044.

2025 Chateau Pape Clement Pre-Arrival Offer

Pessac Leognan, Bordeaux, FRANCE
$170. 00
Bottle
$2040.00 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Named after its most famous owner, Pope Clement V, Chateau Pape Clement in Pessac Leognan makes both red and white wine from their 32.5 hectare vineyard. Vineyards for the red wine is planted to 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Merlot, while the soils here are a complex mix of gravel and clay over a base of clay, limestone and sandstone. Maturation takes place in 100% new French oak, and while Bernard Magrez has refined the style since taking over winemaking duties the wines are still rich and lush in style with a concentration of ripe fruit.
Other Reviews...
The 2025 Pape Clément is magnificent. The aromatics alone are captivating. Strong floral and savory notes soar from the glass. Lavender, rose petal, sage, mint and mocha lead into a core of wonderfully vibrant red/purplish fruit. Medium in body and deep, Pape Clément is positively stellar in 2025. The Cabernets and Petit Verdot add tons of aromatic presence. Élevage is 85% in barrique and 15% in foudre, with a relatively modest 33% new oak. Drink 2035-2065.
95-97 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
A linear and very tight red with black currant, blackberry and hazelnut undertones. It's medium- to full-bodied with firm and racy tannins and a savory finish. Lots of tannins, but they are very fine textured and show outstanding length. 60% merlot, 36% cabernet sauvignon, 3% cabernet franc and 1% petit verdot.
95-96 points
James Suckling
Really floral on the nose, expressive with ripe red and black fruit, incense perfumed scents and a rich headiness with such aromatic purity. Supple and velvety, round and lively with quite a delicate style here where the focus is on the clarity of the blueberry fruit and the lifted aspects rather than fleshiness or power. Almost understated, a word not often used with Pape. A soft salty, wet stone and chalky aspect on the finish. Definitely fresh with lots of energy here. Elegant and precise with a soft chew on the finish and ripe fruit. 1% Petit Verdot completes the blend. 3.68pH. A yield of 29hl/ha. Ageing 85% in barrels (1/3 new) and 15% in foudres. Harvest 3–25 September. Drink 2028-2045.

Rich, vivid and textured, the 2025 Pape Clément Blanc is outrageously beautiful. Lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers, tangerine peel, mint and white pepper soar from the glass. All the elements are so well balanced. This builds beautifully through to the intense, palate-staining finish. In 2025, the Blanc is quite simply magnificent—clearly one of the wines of the vintage. Drink 2030-2040.
96-98 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
This is enveloping, with a broad textural element running throughout. It’s bright and incisive, yet with a blanket of fruit that extends across the palate. Flavorful and long. A blend of 56% sauvignon blanc, 30% semillon and 14% sauvignon gris. Aged in barrels, foudres, concrete, amphorae and stainless steel.
97-98 points
James Suckling
Straw, ripe peach and some waxy lemon aspects with really floral and fragrant aromas on the nose – smells rich and enticing. Beautiful succulence with a dollop of pineapple, lemon and lime, creamy vanilla and peach plus a touch of oiliness that gives amplitude and width. I love the intensity and delicacy here, a wine you really want to drink, full of fruit yet crystalline, focused, mineral, saline and salivating with fruit purity and impressive length. Some enjoyable pineapple bitterness with struck match and oyster shell salinity. Gorgeous precision and clarity – really nothing out of place. A glass I wanted more of immediately. 3.14pH. A yield of 18hl/ha. Ageing 65% in barrels (1/3 new), 16% in foudres and 21% in stoneware, concrete and stainless steel. Drink 2028-2038.

Bottle
$695.88 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Other Reviews...
The 2025 Lacoste-Borie, a blend of 68% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Merlot and 8% Cabernet Franc, planted at a lower density of 7,000 vines per hectare (versus 9,000 for Grand-Puy-Lacoste), is now more clearly defined and no longer conceived simply as a second wine. It reveals a gourmand, fresh bouquet of red berries, followed by a medium-bodied, juicy and elegant palate framed by fresh, velvety tannins and concluding with a long, ethereal and fruity finish. This is a refined and very appealing wine.
91-93 points
Yohan Castaing - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Lacoste-Borie is now labelled "Vignes du Parc", in reference to the fact that this comes from different soils and planting density, i.e. different to Grand Puy Lacoste. It has a vivacious bouquet with abundant redcurrant and strawberry scents, well defined, with just a light hint of bell pepper from the 8% Cabernet Franc. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, good tension, a seam of graphite that pins it down as Pauillac. Modest length. This has a pleasing rondeur that will make it approachable and charming, yet there is still fine substance. This would make a perfect introduction to the delights of Pauillac. Drink 2030-2050.
90-92 points
Neal Martin - Vinous
This is concentrated and medium- to full-bodied, with detailed, linear fruit complemented by precise, focused tannins. Savory finish with a cedar note. Fine tannins. 68% cabernet sauvignon, 24% merlot and 8% cabernet franc.
93-94 points
James Suckling
Beautiful vibrant colour in the glass with a pink rim. So fragrant with rose petals and red cherries – smells pristine, really clear and clean. Smooth and sappy with lovely succulence straight away and mouthwatering acidity. This is delicious, tastes like grape juice with grippy tannins and a chalky, graphite finish. Crunchy, delicate yet super flavourful, crisp with high acidity and lovely Cabernet freshness plus mint, aniseed and clove spice. Strength is there. A yield of 30hl/ha. New cellar with more precise plot selection. Small crop but good quality. Earliest ever Merlot harvest on 4 September, Cabernets picked 14-18th. Rain on 13/14th helped reduce alcohol a little in the Cabernets. Drink 2030-2036.

The 2025 Fombrauge is stellar. Deep and pliant, with gorgeous texture, the 2025 has so much to offer. Dark cherry/plum fruit, rose petal, lavender, mocha and a kick of blood orange infuse the 2025 with tons of nuance.

A tightly layered and structured red with blackberry, chocolate and hazelnut aromas and flavors. Quite chunky and extracted, but it will come around nicely with all the fruit and phenolics. Wait and see. 94% merlot and 6% cabernet franc. From organically grown grapes.
93-94 points
James Suckling
Oak elements on the nose with ripe blackcurrant fruit, dried herbs, black pepper, floral violets and peonies. Smooth and velvety, this is full of bright red berry fruit and softly chalky tannins. A really delicate style with precision at the fore - lots of purity and clarity with the acidity driving the wine forward. Polished and well controlled, still a little tight perhaps but all straightforward, giving width without any heaviness. I like this a lot. Fun, friendly, precise and controlled. Ends minty and stony. Clay and some gravel on the plateau. Some blockage. 94m, 6cf. 14.5%. 3.5pH. A yield of 32hl/ha. Ageing 75% in barrels (1/3 new) and 25% in a variety of vessels (stoneware, concrete and stainless steel). Drink 2029-2043.

2025 Clos Haut Peyraguey (375ml) Pre-Arrival Offer

Sauternes, Bordeaux, FRANCE
$44. 99
Bottle
$539.88 Dozen

Closure: Cork
Clos Haut-Peyraguey traces its origins to the seventeenth century, when it formed part of the same large Sauternes estate as Chateau Lafaurie-Peyraguey, before being separated in the late nineteenth century with the highest and best-situated parcels retained as Clos Haut-Peyraguey. The name Peyraguey, derived from the local word for hill, reflects its elevated position in the commune of Bommes, where the vineyard sits among the highest slopes of the appellation, close to Chateau d'Yquem. The 21-hectare estate, classified as a Premier Cru in 1855 and notable as the smallest of the top-ranked properties at the time, is planted predominantly to Semillon with a smaller proportion of Sauvignon Blanc on gravel, sand and clay soils. Vinification and ageing take place in French oak, with maturation in up to 50 percent new barrels, producing a classically structured Sauternes that reflects both its altitude and historic pedigree.
Other Reviews...
The 2025 Clos Haut-Peyraguey is a very delicate, nuanced wine. Hints of passion fruit, crème brûlée, mint, chamomile, floral-infused honey and orange confit fill out the layers. Soft contours add to the wine's total feeling of finesse, shaping the regal mid-palate and finish. Drink 2030-2055.
93-96 points
Antonio Galloni - Vinous
The 2025 Clos Haut-Peyraguey was picked in three passes between 19 September and 7 October with 140 g/l residual sugar. This is quite pure and delineated on the nose with vanilla pod, acacia honey, French patisserie and light almond scents. The palate is well balanced with a viscous entry. The acidity here is very well judged, the pure botrytis coming through and shaping the very focused finish. Maybe not the most complex Sauternes that I tasted in what was a fecund vintage, but one of the finest Clos Haut-Peyraguey I have tasted at this early juncture. Drink 2031-2059.
93-95 points
Neal Martin - Vinous
Lots of botrytis character. Ample, unctuous and decadent, with medium acidity and a richly expressive, almost excessive palate underpinned by a subtle stony texture.

Jacobo García Andrade - JamesSuckling.com
Gorgeous aromas of orange, clementine and grapefruit with orange blossom, honey, straw and salted caramel vanilla. Juicy and so lively, lifted and almost sharp which perfectly counters the sugary mid-palate with buttery popcorn, butterscotch, pineapple and apricot fruit. I love the mineral, flinty finish. Sharp, bright, tangy and rich but ends clean and focused with impressive attention to detail and such focused purity on show. 140g/l residual sugar (one of the lowest in the appellation this year). A yield of 14hl/ha on 6ha. Ageing 90% in barrels (1/3 new) and 10% in others. Drink 2027-2047.

2025 Chateau Malescot Saint-Exupery Pre-Arrival Offer

Margaux, Bordeaux, FRANCE
$95. 99
Bottle
$1151.88 Dozen

Closure: Cork
This Margaux third growth property has been bought and sold numerous times over its history, but it was after the purchase in 1955 by the Zuger family that the fortunes of the property took a turn for the good. At the time the property was in poor shape, with only 7 hectares under vine. Now the 23.5 hectares vineyard is planted to 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot, and is easily delivering at its classified level and often more. Malescot-St.-Exupery should be on the radar for every lover of rich and expressive Cabernet. And perhaps the reason they aren’t as highly collected is that it’s really been just the last few years they’ve elevated their wines to new levels. The consistency of the wines from 2014-2019 is remarkable, and to date the wines have been extremely well priced.
Other Reviews...
A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot, the 2025 Château Malescot St. Exupéry offers up aromas of sweet blackberries, plums, pencil shavings and licorice. Medium- to full-bodied, rich and fleshy, with a sun-kissed core of fruit and powdery structuring tannins, it's a dramatic, generous, crowd-pleasing style of Margaux.
92-94 points
William Kelley - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2025 Malescot Saint Exupéry is classic Malescot—dark, powerful and quite brooding. Dark-toned fruit, gravel, incense, licorice, tobacco and dried herbs are delineated with serious concentration and pure, unbridled power. This backward, massively tannic Margaux is a wine for readers who can be patient. Drink 2033-2045.

Woody and overly dry from the get go, very tannic and filling with an initial fruitiness that fades quite quickly. Seems they struggled here or it’s just super compact and tight right now as there is some cooling, fresh blueberry juice underneath. A bit potent and highly charged at the moment. Tight and clipped on the finish. Drink 2029-2040.

The 2025 Couvent des Jacobins is a rich, sumptuous wine. Inky dark fruit, chocolate, cloves, incense and sweet oak are the signatures. This fleshy, explosive Saint-Émilion is quite the extrovert. It's a soloist, not an orchestra, but very delicious just the same. Tasted two times. Drink 2031-2045.

Gorgeous deep and juicy plum and blackberry aromas with subtle spice: a superlative aromatic expression. The best expression I recall from this estate en primeur, hats off for the spice, the velvety tannins, and the balance. A wine that is thirst quenching insofar as you have depth but also lots of tension and energy. Cooler clay soils certainly played a role in the success as did the judicious tannin extractions, with integrated tannins from the 35% new oak. Drink 2029-2045.
