    2025 Clos l'Eglise Pre-Arrival Offer
    Pomerol, Bordeaux, FRANCE
    $140. 00
    Bottle
    $1680.00 Dozen
    Closure: Cork

    Other Reviews...
    The 2025 Clos l'Église was picked 8 to 19 September at around 19 hl/ha, aged in vat and in barrels. This is intense on the nose with black berries, touches of licorice and cassis, cohering nicely in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chalky tannins on the entry that lend tension. Very good weight and density in this Pomerol, structured with gentle grip, fine minéralité towards the finish that lingers in the mouth. This will require four or five years in bottle, but there is a lot of potential here. Drink 2032-2052.

    Neal Martin - Vinous

    The 2025 Clos L'Eglise is a potent, brooding Pomerol. Broad swaths of tannin enshroud a core of intense dark fruit, leather, chocolate, licorice and espresso. Yields were just 19 hectoliters per hectare. That concentration of fruit and tannin lends the 2025 tremendous textural intensity, but also makes the tannins a bit tough. Élevage will be essential here. Drink 2033-2045.

    Antonio Galloni - Vinous

    Deep purple-hued, the 2025 Clos L'Eglise is a beast of a Pomerol with a powerful nose of ripe black fruits, liquid violets, gravelly earth, and chocolate. On the palate, it brings remarkable power, full-bodied richness, ripe, building, nicely integrated tannins, a dense, stacked mid-palate, and a great finish. It's a bomb of a Pomerol that's going to need some time.

    Jeb Dunnuck

    Deeply colored, with chocolate-covered plums, flowers, forest floor, leafy greenery, and spice box aromatics that are quite expressive in the aromatic profile. The palate is even better, with a vivid display of ripe, sweet, juicy dark fruits. Elegant, concentrated, silky, and deep, the wine has ample lift, so you taste and feel the freshness and purity in the fruit. The extensive finish displays chocolaty plums, licorice, and spice from beginning to end. The blend is 70% Merlot with 30% Cabernet Franc, 14.5% ABV, 3.6 pH. Yields were low at 19 hectoliters per hectare. Harvesting took place September 8 - September 18. Drink from 2030-2060.

    Haut Medoc, Bordeaux, FRANCE
    $61. 99
    Bottle
    $743.88 Dozen
    Closure: Cork

    Other Reviews...
    The 2025 Cantemerle has a pretty nose with violet and iris flower-infused black fruit, very well defined, the oak very well integrated. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins, very well balanced, impressive weight and cohesive, with more precision on the finish than I have noticed on previous vintages of Cantemerle. I appreciate the sapidity here, a moreish Haut-Médoc in the making, and I look forward to revisiting this in bottle. Drink 2031-2050.

    This shows an attractive nose of flowers and subtle spices from the oak. It has good concentration and a balanced palate, with a clear, expressive fruit profile.

    Jacobo García Andrade - JamesSuckling.com

    Quite a fragrant, aromatic nose, full of intense violets and irises. The Petit Verdot and the Cabernet Sauvignon really stand out in terms of aromatics. Vivid purple in the glass. Sleek and so svelte, this has such a silky, almost creamy texture, tannins are gorgeous and this has such a juicy, lively core. Nothing out of place here. Super accessible and one of the best primeurs samples for consistency tasted three times. Ends salty with a stony grip. Completed new cellar in July 2024 with 114 vats. The team used a thermal camera for plot-by-plot harvest in 2025. New label as this vintage. 4% Petit Verdot completes the blend. 3.6pH. A yield of 30hl/ha. 60% grand vin production. Ageing 12 months in barrel, 35% new wood. Drink 2033-2044.

    Tobacco, cedar, smoke, spice, cherries, and espresso form the core of the wine in the perfume, and on the medium-bodied, vibrant, soft, elegant, fresh, and fruity palate. Drink from 2029-2055.

    Made only in the best vintages, hand-picked fruit from old vines, destemmed. Fermented on skins for 20 days in 5t vats then gently pressed to a new and used French oak hogshead for 18 months with regular racking. The end result is a beautifully crafted and composed wine. All the beauty of cabernet within, alongside superfine tannins. Elegance with latent power. Drink by 2038.

    Jane Faulkner - James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion

    The nose is lifted and focused with pure fruit notes of blackcurrants, cedar, dried rose petals and cigar box. The medium- to full-bodied palate has finely integrated tannins and bright acidity, showing elements of mulberry bush, tobacco leaves and herbes de Provence. Very balanced and giving with a drying finish. Drinkable now but best from 2028.

    From a De Bortoli-owned vineyard in Tarrawarra, predominantly Abel and Pommard clones. Matured in new and used 500L French puncheons. A medium crimson purple. Aromas of raspberries, red plums and sweet spices lead onto the palate, which is generous, plummy and very drinkable from the get-go. The tannins are very fine so while this is quite delicious now, there's more than enough stuffing for it to keep improving. Drink by 2027.

    Blackberry, boysenberry, raspberry, cocoa powder, or maybe a mocha thing, black tobacco, a little mint, pencils and floral perfume. It’s medium-bodied, pulls quite savoury and earthy, black olive in the mix, kind of ferrous too, a firm chamois-like grip to tannin, a bit of cranberry crunch to acidity, a little saline nori thing adds an extra dimension, and the finish is long and firm. I like that it has fruit weight and yet it feels ‘mineral’ at the same time. This is an excellent release. Drink 2026-2036+

    $1199.88 Dozen
    ABV: 45%

    The wild Maguey cuishe (or cuixe) grows in a cylindrical, stalk-shaped piña, with spreading leaves. It’s often slightly smaller than Maguey madre-cuishe, and yields intensely flavoured mezcals noted for their mineral and spice notes. Depending on its locality, 'cuish' could refer to slightly different varieties, varying in colour, size and shape.

    Sourcing magueys from the arid areas of the Tehuacán Valley and the Central Valleys, Maestro Mezcalero, Juan Hernández, produces this expression in tiny batches. In this case, around 60 bottles. 45% Alc./Vol. Very limited stocks.

    Notes from the producer... AROMA: The nose is earthy, with deep notes of wild herbs and wet earth. TASTE: Intense flavours of rosemary, thyme and cloves.

    ABV: 21%

    Like the Crème de Cassis liqueurs from the same region, Green mint liqueurs have a range of subtle differences, depending on the producer. Their one obvious and consistent characteristic is that they're wonderfully refreshing. Leaves are macerated and then distilled to extract all the herbal aromatics and essential oils before a specific sugar dosage is 'cold dissolved' into the infusion. The result is a liqueur that captures the freshness of mint with a little pepper warmth. Enjoy it neat as a long drink with ice or mixed in cocktails. 21% Alc./Vol.

They pair beautifully with gin, vodka or cognac, and can also be used in the kitchen to flavour desserts or fruit-based sauces. Crafted from carefully selected blueberries and raspberries, macerated and blended with water and sugar, here, the primary note of blueberry is enhanced by red berry notes and a touch of tangy raspberry while the creamy texture elevates the experience. 20% Alc.Vol.

    Bottle
    $647.88 Dozen
    ABV: 15%

    Botanically considered a fruit (or berry) the Chipolte is a ripe, smoke-dried jalapeño pepper. Boudier's liqueur blends its heat with added complexity from separate infusions of raisins, nutmeg and ginger. Pepper alcoholates, including grey pepper and Kampot pepper are also included for extra aromatic depth and a spicy kick. Pairs beautifully with smoky cocktails, tequila or mezcal-based creations, and can also enhance culinary sauces with a subtly spicy touch. 15% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... Perhaps not as fruity as it is spicy, but this Chiptole liqueur gives much more than just one dimensional peppery heat... 4.5 Stars - diffordsguide.com

    A super scrumptious Tassie Riesling that shows superb concentration, drive and textural volume.

    Located on the Freycinet coast of Tasmania, Craigie Knowe Vineyard was first planted in 1979 by then Hobart dentist John Austwick. Brilliant very pale straw almost water like core with highlights of green around the edges. Intense lime, citrus and mandarin scents jump out of the glass trailed by some green to red apple and flinty mineral notes. Mouth watering lime, citrus and mandarin fruits completely engulf the palate showing superb concentration, drive and textural volume. Crunchy green to red apple and flinty mineral elements are echoed across the back half. Crisp acidity with a long, super scrumptious finish.

    ABV: 20%

    Derived from the maceration of wild and farmed strawberries, to which a blackcurrant infusion is added for colour and acidity, this liqueur pairs wonderfully with sparkling wines, dry white wines, sparkling water and cocktails but also has a place in desserts, as a topping or coulis over fromage blanc. 20% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... Heads up to bartenders fond of using jam in cocktails: here's a viable alternative. Made with wild strawberries and black currants, this spirit boasts a nice true-berry flavor that's earthy and complex, with a faint cinnamon note on the finish. Almost Port-like, this berry elixir would be outstanding paired with dark chocolate. 93 points - wineenthusiast.com

    Established in 1996 by Paul and Jennifer Champion the Mermerus Pinot Noir is produced from a single vineyard in the Geelong sub region of Bellarine Peninsula. The fruit was hand picked from low yielding vines (1.8 tonnes per acre), open fermented, basket pressed and matured in seasoned French oak barriques for 10 months.

    Seductive, silky and powerful this is a superb expression of Geelong Pinot Noir that delivers terrific value.

    Dark red core with black toned edges and a red to dark red hue. Soaring out of the glass are perfumed scents of violet, dark cherry, strawberry and anise followed by some fresh herb, forest floor and spicy cedar notes. Uber delicious, the palate is decorated with dark cherry, strawberry and anise flavours that carry a gorgeous supple feel. Unravelling across the back half are notions of dried herbs, brambly cedar, forest floor and spice. Boasting outstanding intensity, depth and power, silky smooth tannins extend across what is a very long and highly seductive finish.

    Produced by a husband and wife team whose wines have previously featured under our Nicks Secret guise, this Shiraz delivers on Barossa Valley’s hallmark power and richness yet is both complex and refined. Sourced from a single vineyard planted in 1988, located in the Greenock sub district, it’s matured for 19 months in a 3000L French oak vat.

    Rich and gorgeously plush, this showcases classic Barossa power within a beautifully refined framework.

    Dense pitch black heart with a dark red black tinged hue. Pronounced dark plum, liquorice and dark to black cherry aromas are complexed by notions of smoked meats, vanillin cedar, scorched earth and peppered dried herbs. Rich, plush and concentrated yet not overweight, the savoury palate is redolent in dark plum, liquorice and dark to black cherry fruits. Dried herb, vanillin cedar, subtle scorched earth and peppered fennel elements lend further interest.

    Sourced from David Materne's vineyard in Greenock – 1.6ha planted in 1988 on sandy loam over rich clay. This is the 20th consecutive release from this vineyard, matured in large format French oak (17% new) for 22 months. A wine in fine form from the very strong '24 vintage. Gorgeous macerated damson plum, black cherry and blueberry fruits over hints of Medina spice, pan juices, olive tapenade, some liminal crushed herbs, wildflowers, milk chocolate, gentle cedar tones and a tendril of subtle ferrous interest. Full bodied, with a lovely fruit weight, a wisp of struck-flint reduction, fine, powdery, ironstone-flecked tannins and a long, graceful arc of flavour on the exit. Drink by 2041.

    A crimson sunset with rouge, pink and purple tones. This shows the spectrum of fruit that's possible in these blends. Beginning with Gala apple skin, cranberry, fig hearts and moving into kirsch and plum. Some star anise and five-spice with beautifully mellow tannins. Acidity echoes right till the end and the wine feels very comfortable in its own skin, not stitched together but grown and raised together. Elegant indeed. Drink by 2032.

    The same 1990s-planted site and the same winemaking approach: wild ferment with 20% whole bunches, 10% new oak. This is an elegantly framed release from what was a warm year, with an earlier pick yielding finesse and a savoury dimension. It’s open in fragrance, perfumed and lifted with red fruits, but there’s a cooler side, a dusting of spice, a mulchy forest floor and snapped twig element. And there's a linearity, an appealing tension rather than breadth, tannins finely composed, acidity vibrant. This promises to age well. Drink by 2035.

    Augusta Distillery Buckner's Single Barrel Cask Strength 10 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml)
    Kentucky, UNITED STATES
    $289. 00
    Bottle
    $3468.00 Dozen
    ABV: 60.9%

    The Buckner's lineup offers a series of age statements created as a tribute to Captain Buckner who was a decorated person on the battlefield but was also known for developing the land that gave rise to the city of Augusta, Kentucky. This ignited regional trade all along the Ohio River and laid the foundation for the area to thrive. As with all Augusta's releases, this 10 year old comes from a single barrel of unfiltered cask-strength bourbon. It's intended to be approachable while delivering the kind of complex and memorable pour that you'd expect from a Bourbon of this age.

    Other reviews... the youngest in Augusta Distillery’s premium Buckner’s lineup, which also includes 13, 15, and 17 year old variations, all of which are Kentucky sourced single barrel bourbons bottled at cask strength. While the source(s) of Buckner’s Single Barrel 10 Year is located in Kentucky, exact details are not disclosed. Being a single barrel bourbon, flavor profile will vary from barrel to barrel. The bottle in review came from a barrel with a 168 bottle yield, which represents nearly 40% evaporation loss considering the maximum capacity of a 53 gallon barrel is 267 bottles. Interestingly, the proof remained relatively low at 116 compared to the more common industry standard and upper legal limit of 125, which means the bourbon either lost proof while it was aging or is sourced from a distillery that uses a low barrel entry proof. The bourbon doubles down on cinnamon spice, which is even-tempered but ever present throughout the sip from beginning to end. Sweet flavors persist throughout the sip as well, with brown sugar being most prominent along with caramel, and vanilla wafer. Savory notes of aged oak, leather, tobacco, and cigar box act as a supporting cast. Overall, it’s very flavorful, delivering on traditional Kentucky bourbon flavors in a slightly unique way thanks to its more intense brown sugar and cinnamon flavors found throughout. - breakingbourbon.com

    The flagship 2021 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée De La Reine Des Bois is slightly deeper hued, with more blackberry and darker cherry fruits intermixed with notions of roasted herbs, black licorice, and peppery garrigue. It's concentrated and medium to full-bodied, with building structure and a great finish. I'd put it up with the crème de la crème of the vintage. Drink bottles over the coming 10-15 years. The 2021 is a normal blend of 80% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre, and the rest Vaccarèse, from the Le Bois de la Ville, La Crau, and La Nerthe lieux-dits, that was destemmed and aged mostly in stainless steel (80%) with the rest in used barrels and a splash of new oak.

    60/40% Marmont vineyard grenache/Paralian-owned Springs Hill vineyard shiraz. The most fruit-forward and 'primal' barrels are selected for this. This is delightfully upper mid-weight, joyously fragrant and supple, redolent of cherry juice, roses in bloom, musk, sumac, cinnamon, the gently creeping darker fruit and spice of shiraz latterly joining the grenache lead, adding a little growl to the purr. It’s just such a joy to drink, a wine of immense immediate attraction, though it also has a sculpted line of filigreed tannin and vibrant freshness. It’s a beautiful thing. Drink by 2032.

    Augusta Distillery Old Route 8 Single Barrel Cask Strength 8 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml)

    $189. 99
    Bottle
    $2279.88 Dozen
    ABV: 54.15%

    This is Augusta's flagship label. The name originates from Kentucky’s 'Old Route 8', which connects historic river towns to larger cities and ports. Tasted from a low-fill bottle, the nose is PX-sherry-like, with vanilla extending to dates and light molasses cake. At natural strength, the palate is superbly soft, achieving excellent weight and balance as the initial sweetness dovetails into chewy vanillin oak, the finish hinting at sweet pipe tobacco and fresh sawn oak. This shines straight or over ice, and there are also gorgeous notes of ripe peach and orange-infused dark chocolate that emerge with water, though some of the finer nuances are lost. Founded in 2018 on the banks of the Ohio River, Augusta has since moved on from sourcing Bourbon to distilling their own whiskey. Expect to see more single barrels in the near future. ABV may vary from batch to batch. Non-chill filtered.

    Other reviews... [120.2 proof batch tasted] The bourbon is a full-flavoured affair from start to finish. Baking spices, cinnamon, and pie crust on the nose as tempered with juicy stone fruits, which transitions the bourbon into the sip. Loads of brown sugar help lay a sweet base, with intense baking spices, a hint of fennel, graham cracker, green grape, and vanilla custard combine to form a complex midpoint. Tempering baking spices in the finish reveals apple, brown sugar, caramel, and vanilla cookie. The brand’s website states it delivers a “Kentucky hug,” a term used to describe the lingering after-effect of the warming intensity a bourbon can have when you sip it. While that can be said of many bourbons, Old Route 8 is particularly good at it. - breakingbourbon.com

    Notes from the producers... The hints of favor and complexity created upon nosing are reinforced on the palate. Flavors of brown sugar, vanilla, and a dash of oak are balanced and revealed in smooth, cascading layers that only time and great liquid can deliver. Finish: Long, smooth and lingering, the finish extends the joy of this pour, delivering a classic “Kentucky hug.” Oak, baking spices, with a touch of sweetness are reminders that this is a traditional straight Kentucky bourbon that deserves further exploration.
