    50/45/5% grenache/shiraz/malbec. Talk about spice – this Heathcote GSM has it in sweet abundance. Picked ripe, it's a generous all rounder in dark plum, black cherry, black fruits, licorice, chocolate, toasted spices and a warm earthiness. A strong blackstrap licorice feature comes together on the palate with a light, sweet pastille confection note that runs long. Chockfull of flavour, smooth in texture, fleshy in tannins; it's ready for its moment to shine. Drink by 2029.

    2021 Bekkers Syrah

    $120. 00
    Bottle
    $1440.00 Dozen
    Cellar: Drink now - 10 Years (2026-2036)
    ABV: 14%
    Closure: Stelvin

    Powerful and rich with lush, concentrated fruit framed by a sturdily built tannin structure.

    Fruit was sourced from the McLaren vale sub regions of Clarendon and Seaview with 28% whole bunches utilised in the fermentation process. Maturation took place in a mixture of new (47%) and older (53%) French oak puncheons (500L).
    Impenetrable inky black in colour with a very deep dark red black hue. Pronounced pepper infused aromas of dark plum and liquorice emanate from the glass followed by some smoked meat, earth, dried herb and subtle fennel notes. Rich, concentrated dark plum, liquorice and blackberry fruits are lush and supple upon entry. Notions of scorched earth, fennel, dried meats and blackpepper lurk underneath. Outstanding power with a sturdily built tannin structure that shows great polish. Concludes very long and sumptuous with plenty of spice.
    Drink over the next 8-10 years.

    Other Reviews….
    Deep, bold, bright red-purple colour with essency aromas of black fruits, blackberry/blackcurrant, the flavours bold and primary, full-bodied, rich and generous, with traces of star anise and licorice, poised high on the ripeness scale but certainly gets away with it. Opulent and hedonistic, a full-bodied and plush shiraz that already drinks superbly and should have a long career.

    The Real Review

    You can’t do much Bekkers than this.
    This is a full-bodied red wine with complexity served neat and structure planted firm. It’s as commanding as it is beguiling. It tastes of blue and black berries, licorice, seaweed, smoked-liquid-cedar and toast, and while I think there’s some positive reduction at play here too it’s difficult to tell; it may just be the way the smokiness of the oak has teamed with the seaweed-side of the fruit. No matter. The effect is mesmerising; the cups of flavour runneth into sheets of brilliant, mineral-strewn tannin, atmospheric smoke on the rise, all manner of goings on rumbling in the background. It’s a wonderful wine. Drink 2025-2035+

    Campbell Mattinson – The Wine Front

    The 2021 Syrah is supple, dark and spicy, and gives me all the detail and presence I was hoping for from the excellent 2021 vintage. The tannins in the mouth emphasize the black fruit, and it pulls together as a seamless, cohesive whole, even at this very young/early stage in its life. This is much more open-weaved and approachable than the Clarendon Syrah tasted next to it. Perhaps this speaks more of attraction and seduction up front. The fruit is sourced from three parcels—41% Clarendon (with one parcel at 194-242 meters above seal level) and 59% Seaview (with one parcel at 102-110 meters above seal level). You can see from the elevations that the Clarendon area is hilly and elevated (and beautiful!)—this is obvious when you visit. There was around 30% whole bunches in the mix this year, and it had a wild ferment and matured in French oak puncheons (500 liters, 47% new) until bottling in December 2022. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2023-2043.

    Springbank Fino Sherry Cask Matured 10 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
    $599. 00
    Bottle
    $7188.00 Dozen
    ABV: 55%

    We're fast approaching the end of Springbank’s five part Sherry Series, with just the 10 Year Old Manzanilla left to be released. This, the fourth instalment was matured for ten years in total, four years in bourbon casks followed by six years in Fino (dry) sherry casks. Distilled in 2015, 11,400 bottles were released at 55% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Fino can be very specific, and its influence is relatively mild compared to say, Oloroso or Pedro Ximénez. That's a good thing here. It might have added to the saline character, but left plenty of room for Springbank's DNA to shine. - wordsofwhisky.com

    Notes from the producers... Nose: Dark chocolate, cocoa, sherry, leather, a bit of smoke, minerality, honey and overripe red fruits. Taste: Lightly peaty, nectar, crème brûlée, dried mango, sweet cream, chocolate-covered cherries, slightly salty, with a little red pepper. Finish:  Long-lasting nectar, sweet orange, creamy popcorn, roasted malt, minerals and a bit of spiciness.

    Springbank 12 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - 28th Release
    Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
    $399. 00
    Bottle
    $4788.00 Dozen
    ABV: 55.5%

    "Without the sherry influence, the actual distillate shines through more clearly...a great success." - whiskybase.com

    This release will be notable in the Cask Strength timeline, as it marks a return to 100% ex-bourbon casks. The absence of any sherry input means the whisky will be more 'distillate-driven', a quality that many appreciate in Springbank due to the latent complexity of the spirit. Some are even describing it as their favourite bourbon-matured expression to date! 55.5% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    "Another fantastic Springbank 12 bottling. What makes it special is its pure bourbon maturation. Without the sherry influence, the actual distillate shines through more clearly, in my opinion. Others will miss the sherry component. I appreciate the decision to use pure bourbon cask maturation for Batch 28. For me, it's a great success." - whiskybase.com

    "An intense, pure Springbank with wonderful notes of orange peel, citrus, sea air, and a delicate sweetness, along with a good amount of minerality. It's really enjoyable after a few minutes in the glass. Interestingly, you almost miss the sherry influence. This is pure pleasure, practically a significantly more mature version of the 5-year-old 100 proof. I like it a lot." - whiskybase.com

    Notes from the producers... Nose: A sweet and inviting introduction to this dram, we have notes of fruit salad candy, raspberry ripple, dried mango, frosting and dark chocolate. Palate: The complexity builds in the palate with notes of smoked cayenne pepper, crushed chillies, toffee and charred steak. Finish: Gentle peat smoke emerges in the finish, along with notes of pink grapefruit, cocoa powder, glazed cherries and salted pretzels.

    Springbank 5 Year Old 100 Proof Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - 2025 Release
    Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
    $240. 00
    Bottle
    $2880.00 Dozen
    ABV: 57.1%

    "I adore this distillate-dominated sort of profile... top notch, uber-charismatic young malt whisky in the very best sense." - whiskyfun.com

    It's speculated that this 2025 addition to the range is a response to the increasing scarcity of Springbank's core products, alleviating demand while keeping the brand 'out there'. Intended as an ongoing quarterly release, '100 Proof' pays homage to several historic distillery bottlings, such as those from the 2000s. Released at 57.1% (British 100 Proof) and matured in ex-bourbon casks, its youth and strength should offer a compelling sensory insight as to what Springbank's one-of-a-kind distillate is all about: an eclectic combination of peat and iodine freshness, cut hay, barnyard, creamy vanilla and tropical fruits. In short, a powerful whisky with a classic coastal Campbeltown personality that will make a curious contrast to the benchmark 10 year old. The first batch sold out instantly in Europe. Be quick! Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Disarming. Clean and oily with vanilla and cream soda. A salty and sweet arrival brings a hint of fizz from lemons and pale-yellow fruits; Japanese pears and unripe honeydew melon. There’s a farmyard mulch, like a damp barn or warm hay mulch. Soft peppermint, white pepper too, with distant liquorice... After a glass or two, I reached for a Springbank 10 year old that’s been open a while and, in the glaring light of direct comparison, the youth of the new release was immediately obvious. But here’s the funny thing; after I’d drained both glasses, the one I reached for a second pour of was the 5yo. The purity of spirit drew me in. The silky texture and the heft of it, the simple focus alongside the odd pleasure of licking it off my teeth, were what the mood called for. - dramface.com

    "The profile is quite similar to the Springbank 10 yo, but it is more vigorous, the peat is stronger, and the fruits are more present." - whiskybase.com

    "Quintessential Springbank at its youth - not uncommon in some sub-10yo bourbon cage bottle. Campbeltown in a glass. At RRP this is quite decent, I it also strikes a better balance between spirit and cask than Longrow 100 proof. Worth noting that SB new make does require time to tame the funk, and 5 years feels like a bare minimum." - whiskybase.com

    ...Composed of 100% bourbon casks, although not too sure if everything was first fill. Colour: pale straw. Nose: an abundance of fresh breads and citrus notes. Yeasty sourdough starter, wool, fresh linens and white flowers. Then lemon barley water and impressions of bay leaf, citrus curds, heathery floral notes and some firmer mineral and stone qualities that nod towards waxiness. The very epitome of excellent young malt whisky. With water: lighter and almost feathery, more focussed around cereals, breads, pressed flowers, wool, ink and mineral oil. Mouth: fantastic! Pure Springbank distillate character, very waxy and much oily and more emphatic than the nose suggested, going here much more decisively towards lemon waxy notes, chalk, clay, sheep wool, delicate medicinal tones and wild coastal flowers. There's also a slightly sharp, white stone fruitiness and fermentary side that makes me think of old Glen Grant 5yo 100 proof bottlings. With water: gets bone dry, even salty and superbly coastal now, lemon juice on sheep wool, watercress, white pepper and a trace of brittle peat smoke. Finish: good length, warming and peppery, with impressions of warm draff, old school ales, chalky and still those persistently bright lemony notes. Comments: It's true that I adore this distillate-dominated sort of profile, but even with that caveat, I think this is top notch, uber-charismatic young malt whisky in the very best sense. Swings a wrecking ball through most of these frankly embarrassing NAS wine finished things that clutter up whisky these days. That being said, it also demonstrates that in order to be able to release young, unvarnished, high strength bottlings such as this, you need the sort of distillate that can stand on its own.  88 points - whiskyfun.com

    2017 Hazelburn Oloroso Cask Matured 8 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
    $299. 00
    Bottle
    $3588.00 Dozen
    ABV: 48.2%

    "...a very impressive release, especially at only 8 years old." - whiskybase.com

    A chance to pick up a fully Oloroso matured whisky from Springbank where the sherry isn't too dominant. It also showcases Springbank's ability to squeeze the most out of just eight years in barrel. Despite its youth, consensus is that this is a terrific Hazelburn. 10,500 bottles produced. 48.2% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Other reviews... One of the best Hazelburns I've ever tasted. The nose was already a fantastic experience, and I didn't expect this 8-year-old to be so good. This one is definitely going into my collection. Hopefully, it'll still be available when I'm back at the distillery. Nose: A true wow moment and a huge smile on my face. Red fruit, dark chocolate, coffee beans, strawberry, licorice, orange peel, complex dark notes. Just what you'd expect from an Oloroso cask. Taste: Honey drop, liquorice, wooden barn, blueberries and tree bark. Finish: Licorice, red fruit, long finish that definitely lingers for a while so you can enjoy it a little longer. - whiskybase.com

    ...I've had this a few times now and every time it surprises me. On paper - Hazelburn, 8 years old, sherry, fairly low ABV - this would appear one of the "friendlier" type of whiskies coming out of the Springbank distillery, but the reality is the complete opposite of an easy dram. It's bone dry, salty, slightly tannic on the palate and filled with a slight peatiness/Springbank funk/cigar box/engine oil type of vibe on the nose. Only in the finish do you start getting a bit of sweetness. Absolutely jam packed with flavour and smell too. I think this is a very impressive release, especially at only 8 years old. - whiskybase.com

    ...A great nose, which reaches more or less the same heights as some considerably older expressions. On the palate it gets a little rougher with the youth and oak shining through. Overall a nice release though. - whiskynotes.be

    Springbank Local Barley 8 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
    $499. 00
    Bottle
    $5988.00 Dozen
    ABV: 58.1%

    Other reviews... This baby was bottled last December and released in 2025. The barley, of course floor-malted at Springbank, came from High Ranachan farm, just down the road from the Wee Toon. One could hardly get more local than this. Colour: gold. Nose: oh lovely! At once a little ‘dirtier’ and more lemony than the 10 year old many of us adore, quite marked by paraffin, boot polish, pot ale… one could almost describe it as ‘a trifle feinty’ with a slightly soapy edge. But Springbank may well be the only malt that’s actually enhanced by these tiny soapy notes, if you see what I mean. Also fresh almonds and walnuts galore. With water: paint and ‘a Saturday morning at Ikea’. Or perhaps ‘a fresh parcel from Temu’. Mouth (neat): an outburst of pink and green peppercorns, plus an avalanche of citrus. The usual greasy and coastal elements are very much present too. With water: fewer developments this time, and one gets the impression that youth might be a slight drawback here. Finish: same feeling, perhaps a tad too rustic at this stage. Ginger ale, porridge, ink, pepper. Comments: just spotted it’s bere barley. 86 points - whiskyfun.com

    $399. 00
    Bottle
    $4788.00 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    Compared to previous years, the 2025 batch highlights a shift towards an extreme sherry profile, looking even deeper and darker than the 2024 bottling! A decade and a half in first-fill and refill sherry wood integrates the smoke into layers of dark chocolate and maritime spice. 46% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... "Aged entirely in ex sherry casks, the fruity and floral aroma really come through. There is a drying wood tannin that is detected along with burnt wood. Peanut brittle and salt water taffy are the sweet and salty qualities that mark this bottling." - Stephanie Moreno, distiller.com

    ...quite complex nose, great palate and solid experience overall....46% hides rough edges on the palate. I would love to taste this dram at 50% or higher. On the other hand, he is so quaffable that you might be surprised. Really easy-sweet drinking. - whiskybase.com

    $839.88 Dozen
    Cellar: Drink now - 12 Years (2026-2038)
    ABV: 14%
    Closure: Diam Cork

    A concentrated and viscous, honey drenched Sauternes with a long, decadent finish.

    Many experts consider Chateau Haut Bergeron to be the best of the non classified Sauternes. Part of the secret of the success of Robert Lamothes and his sons Patrick and Herue is the terroir. The 28 hectare vineyard is split on such a way, that part of the vines are in Barsac, (next to Chateau Climens), part are at Preignac and a large slice next to Chateau d’Yquem. At one stage the label used to boast this fact, with the words 'CONTIGU d’YQUEM'. Son, Herue is a dedicated and passionate winemaker who ages wine in 25% to 50% new oak casks. The exact percentage depends upon the vintage conditions.
    Bright yellow straw gold tinged colour. Intoxicating scents of honeyed apricot and peach are complimented by dried pineapple, toffee apple and spice notes. Boasting outstanding intensity, the viscous, honey drenched palate is draped with mouth coating flavours of honeyed apricot and peach which are complimented by pineapple, marmalade and toffee apple characters. Fresh underlying acidity counterpoints the thick, luscious textural feel. Finishes long and decadent.
    Drink over the next 10-12 years.

    The 2022 Haut-Bergeron has a perfumed bouquet with well-defined yellow plum, butterscotch and light saffron scents.

    A blend of 85% Sémillon and 15% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2022 Haut-Bergeron reveals a fresh, delicate and complex bouquet of ripe orchard fruits, grapefruit, exotic fruits and lovely spicy notes. Medium to full-bodied, dense and enveloping, it achieves perfect balance with bright acidity, a stunning texture from Botrytis cinerea and a long, ethereal finish tinged with mango. This wine is undoubtedly a superb value and one I would eagerly add to my cellar. Drink 2028-2042.

    Spiced golden berries, quince and honey follow through to a medium-to full-bodied palate with sweet, almost luscious fruit. Balanced and creamy, with medium acidity and good flavor complexity offsetting the sweetness. Good length. Drink now or hold.

    Spiced golden berries, quince and honey follow through to a medium-to full-bodied palate with sweet, almost luscious fruit. Balanced and creamy, with medium acidity and good flavor complexity offsetting the sweetness. Good length. Drink now or hold.

    Hazelburn 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - 2025 Bottling
    Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
    $199. 99
    Bottle
    $2399.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    "if you’re a fan of elegant, simple, unpeated whiskies that don’t try too hard but still deliver, you’re in for a treat." - dramface.com

    Named after one of Campbeltown's lost distilleries, Hazelburn gains its delicate character from unpeated barley and is distilled following the Longrow run, three times instead of twice, as is the standard for Scotch single malt. Sometimes described as "a light triple distilled version of Springbank", consistent with previous releases, the 2025 release comes 100% matured in x-Bourbon casks. 46% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... I won what felt like the whisky lottery and managed to snag a bottle of this year’s Hazelburn 10 release – and it did not disappoint. From a nose that’s bright, fruity and coastal, to a palate that is smooth, creamy, and quietly confident: if you’re a fan of elegant, simple, unpeated whiskies that don’t try too hard but still deliver, you’re in for a treat.  So, maybe, if you’re set on a resolution for 2026, it should be something like picking up one of these. If you can find one. - dramface.com

    Notes from the producers... Nose: On the nose we have notes of Victoria sponge, honey, vanilla, gooseberries, dried apricots and a soft floral element. Palate: The palate brings notes of key lime pie, icing sugar, green grapes and fruit syrup. Finish: There is a waxiness in the finish with a note of bergamot lemon.

    Springbank 10 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - 2025 bottling

    $199. 99
    Bottle
    $2399.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    Lightly peated and distilled 2.5 times, the tenner is the perfect introduction to the Springbank range - indeed, some consider it one of the highlights. The 2025 edition is matured in a combination of 60% bourbon and 40% sherry casks. Hyped, and for good reason, it's detailed, textural and flavoursome from the first sip through to the sweet, salty finish. It'll leave you wondering how so much complexity can be achieved at just 10 years old! 46% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Notes from the producers... [2025 release] Nose: A vibrant cereal note introduces our flagship Springbank dram, along with notes of gooseberries, mango, vanilla pods, grapes and honeycomb. Palate: The fruit and cereal notes carry through to the palate in hints of oatmeal, malted barley and orange pulp. Heather honey, hard toffee, nutmeg and cinnamon notes develop. Finish: A characteristic sea salt note rounds off this dram.

    Other reviews... [+/- 2024 release] Colour: white wine. Nose: I get the impression that SB 10 is becoming increasingly earthy, dirty, laden with soot, basalt, oyster shells, slightly rancid olive oil, mustard, slags, and various yeasts—everything we love, though it’s perhaps not quite to your new neighbour’s taste, just to be clear. SB 10 will never replace a good, easy Champagne blanc de blancs (not entirely sure about that last remark, S.). Mouth: austere, intensely saline, peppery, even dirtier on the palate, with striking bitterness and that unmistakable oily texture. Grilled aubergines come close, before lemon peel and a generous glass of fino sherry ride to the rescue. And it’s not the first time one gets the impression they’ve poured a bit of Longrow into the vatting tank. Finish: long, with that wonderfully discordant sensation of an oily yet razor-sharp malt. The aftertaste is saline, peppery, mezcal-like, and lemony. Comments: perhaps it’s that untamed, uncommercial edge that makes this so sought after. Go figure; we, of course, adore it, as ever. 91 points - whiskyfun.com

Nails the varietal strengths of each grape, launching white florals and a keen citrus intensity edged in almond, ginger and spice. Viognier brings its peach custard and stone fruit influence to the palate, adding another layer. Floats on the tongue, finishing with a lovely textural warmth. Drink by 2029.\

    Supple in its flow and possessing admirable power, this a nicely fleshed, savoury Yarra Valley Pinot Noir.

    Situated in the picturesque Yarra Valley, Coldstream Hills was established in 1985 by James and Suzanne Halliday. The fruit for this wine was sourced from low yielding vineyards in the Lower and Upper Yarra Valley with a variety of handling and fermentation techniques, including the use of whole bunches employed. Maturation took place in a combination of seasoned and new French oak for a period of 9 months.

    Dark red colour with black toned edges and a light red hue. The nose is filled with dark cherry, strawberry and anise aromas. Hints of violet, spicy cedar and forest floor are also evident. Supple in its flow and possessing admirable power, the palate is decorated with rich dark cherry, strawberry and anise flavours. Gently toasted cedar, brambly earth, delicate rhubarb and spice characters all sit in the background. Finely polished tannins show good underlying structure. Nicely fleshed it concludes long and savoury.

    Made at the North Uist Distillery on the Isle of Benbecula in Scotland’s Outer Hebrides, Downpour Gin uses local ingredients including wild thyme, which adds herbaceous notes as well as pepper dulse, which adds savoury touches of pepper that are full of umami. Other botanicals include juniper, coriander, lemon, angelica root and pink peppercorn. The distillation process retains visible traces of the botanical oils and essences, which results in a slightly cloudy appearance when mixed. Recommended with premium tonic, garnished with a slice of fresh lemon and a sprig of fresh rosemary. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Notes from the producers... Bursting with citrus, spice and the honeyed finish of wild Hebridean heather blossoms foraged in Uist by friends of the distillery before being bartered for gin. Perfect serve: Ice, tonic, lemon, rosemary.

    $1919.88 Dozen
    ABV: 44%

    Other reviews... It’s been a minute since we’ve seen anything from Bermuda’s Goslings Rum brand, but it’s back and with a vengeance. This new rum is finished on a container ship that travelled between Bermuda and somewhere in the Mid-Atlantic, back and forth, over and over, bobbing around for a total of 59,920 nautical miles before returning home for bottling. It’s a story we’ve heard before, but let’s see how Goslings does with the concept. A quality oak experience is what can make a good rum great, and there’s clearly something to be said for what that time on the water has done for this expression. Lots of punch on the nose gives the rum a certain austerity — plenty of oak and leather, balanced by a surfeit of bright sweetness: coconut syrup, maple, and butterscotch, all in a swirl. The palate takes that and runs with it, as the maple notes quickly become nothing short of intense. A bold coffee bean character wraps around more savory notes of hemp and leather, with a smoldering tobacco note quickly coming into focus. Plenty of vanilla and maple continue to dominate, while toasted spices linger as the finish builds, with a slight note of sulfur and burnt matches hanging in the air. While short of transcendent, this is a good, old, well-oiled rum that leans into its dessert-like qualities and takes no prisoners along the way. - drinkhacker.com

    Boudier's Chestnut liqueur is crafted through a meticulous maceration process: chestnuts are carefully processed to extract their full aromatic richness, while vanilla is infused separately. The blend is completed with sugar, honey, and a touch of caramel for colour adjustment. The result is a generous and warming liqueur with subtle balance that adds a woody and sweet twist to classic cocktails - think Chestnut Manhattans, a reimagined Old Fashioned, or simply serve it over ice. 25% Alc./Vol.

    BERMUDA
    $189. 99
    Bottle
    $2279.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    Launched in 2024, this is reportedly extra-aged Goslings blended from column and pot still selections, the twist being a finishing for at least three years in U.S. rye whiskey barrels. With ex-bourbon ageing for the first 16-19 years this is seriously old rum, so leave it out of your next 'Dark and Stormy'. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... So, what’s it like? Well, all in all, not bad. The extra ageing makes itself felt on the nose with some light sweetness, nougat, almonds, unsweetened chocolate and coffee grounds, with a nice touch of dried prunes and raisins. There’s a vague mint and briny note here that’s probably the rye cask influence, plus vanilla and caramel and even an overripe apple or two to mix things up....It’s as warm and and easy on the palate as the nose – there is no aggressiveness here. That’s both a good and a bad thing, depending on your preferences, but I will say it’s really pleasant. The tastes hearken to light citrus (tangerines, ruby grapefruit), with additional notes of bubble gum, black pepper, vanilla, cinnamon, toffee, honey, oak, wet coffee grounds. The finish is consistent with the Original FR edition, which is to say, nothing special, repeating all the notes we’ve already seen on the nose and the palate – dried fruits, honey, pepper, slight citrus, vanilla and some sweet. - thelonecaner.com

    ...The unusual dimension to the spiciness here does make the bottle stand out, though I expect it could probably use more proof in order to feel more vivacious than the 40% ABV we’re getting here. All in all, though, the rye barrels are delivering a unique experience unlike what you’re typically going to run into in a standard bottle of moderately aged column still rum from the Caribbean. If the floral/spice dimension–and relative dryness–is intriguing to you, then this will be one to seek out. - pastemagazine.com

    Made from the Briarston vineyard (planted '94) and House Block (planted '85). A very bright green gold. A refined and complex bouquet of citrus peel, pear, dried honey and subtle marine scents. Even better on the saline, mouth-filling and beautifully balanced palate. I love the touch of grip on the long finish. A wine you'd still love to have a few bottles of tucked away in the cellar, eight to 10 years from now. I've said this before, and it's worth repeating, but Coldstream Hill's top wines are extremely well priced. Drink by 2035.

    A stunning wine of immense power, fruit concentration, and depth. Balanced and composed with a mix of creamy stone fruit. The oak and fruit integration is seamless and pure while crunchy acidity drives through to the finish. There’s purity, power, and a crystalline line that runs through these wines. One of the best Chardonnays yet from Coldstream Hills. Almost a single-vineyard wine from the Briarston Vineyard with an additional 6% from the pure and deep House block.

    Gee this is good. It's moreish and savoury, with plenty of flavour yet a certain level of restraint as well. The spicy oak lightly coats the lemon and grapefruit, there's some ginger tea, and lemon curd and clotted cream lees add texture across the palate. Fine acidity ensures a fresh finish and gets you ready for the next sip. Drink by 2033.

    Juicy textured with delicious blue to dark fruits finishing long, fresh and elegant.

    Nicolas Catena has been instrumental in Argentina’s progress over the last three decades, bringing the country's wine industry into line with world class standards. What you can now get for your money in the present day climate are seriously good expressions of the nation's signature varietal, Malbec, that rival many Australian reds for punch and price. Made by fourth generation vintner Laura Catena and chief winemaker, Alejandro Vigil, this wine is sourced from three high altitude vineyards. Each vineyard is specifically farmed in preparation for its role in the final blend. Eighty year old vines in the Lunlunta (Maipù) vineyard lend soft, sweet texture whilst the intense sunshine in the Gualtallary (Tupungato) vineyard provides explosive floral aromatics and a concentrated structure. The last component is from El Cipillo in Eugenio Bustos, which has loamy sands and thick calcareous layers sit over rounded rock. Maturation takes place in a mix of new, second and third use French oak barrels for a period of 11-13 months.
    Midnight black dark red colour with a purple red tinged hue. Aromas of blueberry, cherry and red plum sail out of the glass mixing with dried herb, earth and spice notes along the way. Delicious juicy blueberry, dark cherry, plum and red liquorice fruits are delivered with impressive intensity and energy across the mid weighted palate. Infusions of violet, dried herbs, earth and spice linger across the back half. Refined tannins finishing long, fresh and elegant.
    Drink over the next 5-6 years.

    Wonderfully complex and enticing, the wine shows blackberry, cake spice, cured meat, and toasty oak characters on the nose with a hint of dark cocoa. The concentrated palate delivers a plush mouthfeel, backed by beautifully melded tannins, making it robust and opulent with excellent harmony and length. At its best: now to 2035.

    El Tequileno Still Strength 100 Proof Blanco Tequila (750ml)
    Jalisco, MEXICO
    $149. 99
    Bottle
    $1799.88 Dozen
    ABV: 50%

    El Tequileno's 100-proof blanco is the latest addition to the small but growing ranks of higher-proof tequilas. 'Still strength' ABVs can vary depending on the distillery and production methods. The key point of difference is that they're bottled without dilution. We're also informed that (legally) tequila cannot be bottled at more than 55% ABV, so this is nearing the limits. While Still Strength offerings are geared to meet a soaring demand for innovative releases, even in a massive tequila market like North America they remain a relatively small category. At the time of writing, only about thirty expressions are available. In our experience, the higher ABV makes a world of difference, elevating Blanco tequila to another level of intensity and flavour. Made by third-generation Master Distiller, Jorge Antonio “Tony” Salles at NOM 1108, this release is also notable for being bottled non-chill filtered with zero additives.

    Other reviews... El Tequileño Still Strength absolutely overdelivers and punches well above its price point. At [its price] this is one of the best values in the still strength category—full stop. Aroma: Rich, expressive, and unmistakably agave-forward. You get deep cooked agave right out of the gate, layered with roasted fig and a pop of orange zest. It’s inviting without being overly sweet—balanced and authentic. Taste: This is an agave bomb in the best way possible. Roasted agave dominates, backed by bright floral notes and a clean hit of lemon peel that adds lift and freshness. The higher proof gives it intensity, but it’s controlled—not harsh—and carries the flavors across the palate with real presence. Overall: What’s most surprising is how this stacks up against other still strengths that cost significantly more. Some of the higher-priced bottles simply don’t deliver this level of agave purity or balance... Rating: 92/100 Outstanding value, bold profile, and a must-have for anyone who appreciates a true agave-forward tequila. - agavematchmaker.com

    ...At 100 proof, this is certainly much stronger than your average bottle of Patron or Espolon, but it’s not too boozy to sip neat or use in a cocktail. The higher proof adds some heat to the palate, but doesn’t overwhelm the notes of cooked agave, citrus, pepper, vanilla, and roasted nuts, culminating in a warming finish on the back of your throat. Trying using it in a Margarita to see how it cuts through other components like tart citrus or sweet agave syrup. - robbreport.com

    ABV: 46%

    Note: Product has come from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product pictured.

    The Rosebank distillery is settled on the banks of the Forth-Clyde canal near Falkirk and has been mothballed since 1993. Considered as the Queen of all Lowland malts by some specialists, the final Rosebank release was a cask strength bottling in the 'Rare Malts' collection, and independent bottlers have put several versions on the market.

    This particular bottling was distilled in 1990 and bottled in 2008 at 46% by Hart Brothers. The distillery in Falkirk closed its doors in 1993, making this bottle a rare opportunity to taste this sought-after whisky alongside a new release. After being purchased by Ian Mcleod Distillers in 2023, the site opened up to the public in June 2024 and has started production again. A new Rosebank release is still a while away, but the older bottles will be getting snatched up quickly. Don't miss out!

    Full of flavour, mouth watering and possessing an airy feel, this is one of the best value Sparklings going around.

    Outside of Champagne, Bouvet is the most awarded Sparkling Wine House in France, garnering high praise from critics like Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, Decanter Magazine, James Suckling and many others. After many years of ownership by Champagne Taittinger, Bouvet Ladubay is once again fully owned by the Monmousseau family who have continuously run the business since their purchase in 1932. Bouvet Ladubay employs precisely the same wine making process as Grand Marque Champagne, delivering French sophistication at an everyday price.
    A fine satiny mousse gracefully declines in the glass. Very pale straw coloured base with pale gold edges threaded by a very fine and persistent bead. Pear, green apple and citrus aromas greet the nostrils with some subtle baked bread and oyster shell like notes also evident. Full of flavour and carrying an airy pillowy like feel, the mouth watering palate is awash with pear, baked bread, citrus and red apple flavours. Subtle yeast lees and quince characters linger across the back half. Refreshing acidity invigorating the long baked apple, quince and yeast lees finish.
    Drink over the next 3-4 years.
