2014 Benromach Batch 3 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
$179. 99
Bottle
$2159.88 Dozen

ABV: 60.6%

If you were exploring the deeper, heavier side of Speyside malts, natural strength Cragellachies and Mortlachs might be your first point of call - if you can find them. Benromach now offers a third way to go, and it's more viable than the other two. Their vintage-dated cask strength editions are released in batches, each promising variations on a theme, each delivering a smorgasbord of whisky flavours: A little smoke in combination with first-fill Bourbon and Sherry sweetness plus a rich, oily texture that's downright delicious. It's as much fun as you're likely to squeeze out of ten year old malt! Batch #3 lands at 60.6% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.
Notes from the producers... Nose: Rich fruitcake aromas. Taste: Stewed plum, marmalade and spicy black pepper. Finish: Lingering smoke and a hint of aniseed.

Buffalo Trace Traveller Whiskey (700ml)

Kentucky, UNITED STATES
$79. 99
Bottle
$959.88 Dozen

ABV: 45%

A collaborative effort from Buffalo Trace Distillery, 'Traveller' brings together the collective artistry of 10X Grammy award-winning artist, Chris Stapleton and Buffalo Trace Distillery Master Distiller, Harlen Wheatley. Over fifty blends were sampled before making Blend No.40 the chosen combination. Little is known about the whiskey, what it's composed of, and whether or not any of the whiskey within the blend was even distilled at Buffalo Trace. However, Sazerac has confirmed that it contains 0% grain neutral spirits and has also stated it is a completely unique combination of whiskeys hand selected from multiple distilleries. 45% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... The first celebrity-themed whiskey associated with Buffalo Trace, Traveller Whiskey offers a unique flavor profile that will appeal to the masses, but leaves more discerning consumers wondering what actually makes up the blend...First and foremost, the flavor profile is unfamiliar, arguably sweet to a fault, but will likely satisfy casual, mainstream whiskey drinkers. It’s mild enough for the masses to sip, while it is light it does offer a degree of creaminess that allows it to take a cube fairly well, and it even holds up well in a cocktail. While its flavor profile may be tuned more into the mainstream drinker than the enthusiast, it’s impossible to ignore the fact that this blended whiskey is unique in a number of ways. - breakingbourbon.com
Notes from the producers... Complex aromas of vanilla, aged fruit and buttery shortbread rounded off by caramel and a touch of oak. The palate has just a touch of sweetness, followed by spice, toasted nut and oak flavors, with a robust finish.

Don Fulano 100% Agave Anejo Tequila (700ml)

Jalisco, MEXICO
$159. 99
Bottle
$1919.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

An Anejo that maintains appealing vibrancy on the nose; on the palate, oily, relaxed and finely tuned, the juicy agave character juxtaposed against sprinklings of pepper, subtle tannins adding body and grip. Both the mouthfeel and flavour persistence are unusual for the category, making for one dangerously drinkable tequila. 40% Alc./Vol. Tasted from a 30ml sample.
Other reviews... Aged in a mix of casks that previously held Burgundy, Bordeaux and Loire wines, this complex Tequila is one to savor. Bell pepper and jalapeño aromas mingle with mild honey and cinnamon sweetness. The plush palate echoes that sweetness and spice, leading into a long finish tinged with cocoa and vanilla, plus a final zing of jalapeño heat. 97 points - winenthusiast.com
...Golden amber color. Aromas and flavors of chocolate toffee and raisins, roasted almonds, herbed yams, and roasted yellow peppers with a supple, bright, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a warming, refreshing, medium-long finish with accents of mocha latte, spiced nuts, sassafras float, and pepper. A rich, spicy, yet balanced añejo for sipping, cigars, or high-end cocktails. 95 points - tastings.com

2022 Matane Negroamaro

Puglia, ITALY
$23. 99
Bottle
$287.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 3 Years (2024-2027)

ABV: 13%

Closure: Synthetic Cork

Matané sources Negroamaro from various vineyards between the towns of Manduria and Lecce, very close to the heel of the boot on the Salento Peninsula. This southernmost part of Puglia is also Italy’s easternmost area with dark red soils and abundant Mediterranean sunshine. The climate is mild in winter, with adequate rainfall, but it is also very hot in summer with little rainfall. This wine represents the new winemaking approach in Puglia, with more moderate alcohol levels and gentler extractions. Negroamaro loves hot and dry conditions, and it grows particularly well in the calcareous, high-limestone soils of the area.
Dense midnight black colour with a dark red hue. Lifted ripe black cherry and liquorice aromas mix with hints of dried cherry, scorched earth and spicy dried herb notes. Rich juicy dark to morello cherry and liquorice fruits flood the mouth with scorched earth, dried herb and spice elements lying beneath. Ripe chewy tannins impart some gentle grip onto the long, deeply fruited finish.
Drink over the next 2-3 years.

2019 Vinea Marson Sangiovese

Heathcote, Victoria, AUSTRALIA
$39. 99
Bottle
$479.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 2 Years (2024-2026)

ABV: 14.5%

Closure: Diam Cork

Vinea Marson’s Sangiovese has Italy stamped all over it. The 2019 was picked marginally later than a regular vintage (approximately early April) allowing the grapes to reach optimal ripeness. Post fermentation/maceration the wine was racked off into a mix of 20% new barrique and tonneau for a maturation period of 12 months.
A beautifully aged Sangiovese that’s drinking superbly.
Dark red core with black toned edges and a red to brick red hue. Elevated aromas of dark cherry and blackcurrant mix with earth, dried herb and spicy tobacco notes. Rich red to black currant and red to dark cherry fruits have an even and smooth flow across the palate complimented by savoury nuances of earth, dried herbs, tobacco and spice. Excellent concentration and length with agile yet integrated acidity. Polished yet still slightly rustic tannins concluding long and spicy.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 14.5%
Other Reviews…..
Boasts a distinctive Italian-Australian personality, one that is ripe and sweet-fruited but also savoury and very much down to earth (literally!). Black cherry, roasted plums, thyme, sage, vanillin oak and earth bring an aromatic mix of dark fruits, herbs and gently spiced oak to this attractive, medium-bodied sangiovese. It's bright, too, with the grape's natural acidity and savoury tannins coming into play to lift and beautifully define the 5-year-old wine. Drink by 2036.

2024 Jim Barry Assyrtiko

Clare Valley, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
$29. 99
Bottle
$359.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 2 Years (2024-2026)

ABV: 12%

Closure: Stelvin

Jim Barry’s love affair with the Assyrtiko began in 2006 whilst on holiday on the Greek Island of Santorini, the birthplace of the variety. Its crisp acidity reminded him of Clare Valley Riesling yet it had a unique flavour profile that he had not experienced before. Intrigued, he began the process of importing cuttings and by 2012 had planted Australia’s first Assyrtiko vineyard.
Brilliant water like core with a subtle greenish tinge to the edges. Aromas of pear, lime and red apple skin sail out of the glass with some fresh herb and delicate slatey mineral notes also chiming in. Pear, lime and green apple fruits are amply concentrated across what is a mouth watering palate. Crisp, invigorating acidity counterpoints the wines textural volume. Infusions of Mediterranean herbs and a tonic like minerality linger through the long scrumptious finish.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.
Alc. 12%

Other Reviews....
An appealing white wine of gentle savouriness, brightness of fruit alongside that, floral lift and saline minerality. Yes thanks. It feels quite racy in texture but there's oatmeal and ginger biscuit qualities under tart lime and green apple fruitiness. The perfume is loaded with citrus blossom florals, sea spray, lime and ginger. A racy finish lends ultimate freshness. A very good vibe here. Drink by 2028.

Mike Bennie - James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion

I am shocked to discover that I have not yet reviewed a single vintage of this wine for "The Wine Advocate," despite having consumed my fair share of it and judged it at many wine shows over the years. Here, the 2024 Assyrtiko is crunchy and fleshy, with white linen, cheesecloth, brine, green apple, nashi pear, lemon barley and vanilla wafer. The wine is complex and impressively layered, with texture and flavor in profusion. This wine comes highly—and perhaps unsurprisingly to drinkers in Australia—recommended as a great dining wine. One day, as we see more vine age develop in this vineyard, we might see a premium Assyrtiko produced, in line with some of the great, old-vine beauties of Greece. One can hope. 12% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2024--2032.

Don Fulano 100% Agave Blanco Tequila (700ml)

Jalisco, MEXICO
$129. 99
Bottle
$1559.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Don Fulano Tequila is the fruit of five generations of agave growers and a distilling heritage that brings together the Highlands of Jalisco and the Valleys of Tequila. Today the Fonseca family are not only respected farmers – they also run La Tequileña, one of the highest-rated and most awarded of Jalisco's distilleries. It is also the last family-owned operation that is 100% self-sufficient in agave supply, allowing them to control the quality of their tequila from farm to bottle. They introduced the Don Fulano brand back in 2002. Says Lance Cutler, California-based Author and Winemaker, “Fonseca consistently creates tequilas rich with agave character yet graced with a delicate finish. His penchant for long-term barrel aging allows him to blend in ways never before seen in tequila production. In effect, Fonseca has created an entirely new class of tequila.”
Don Fulano's Blanco is rested for six months in stainless steel before bottling. The aromas open resiny, developing an earthy, lightly smokey agave edge alongside dill, white pepper and green tomato chutney. Nicely weighted, the supple, juicy delivery is complemented by low-burn alcohol, trailing off with hints of candle wax, potpourri, brine, mustard pickle and pepper. Give it enough breathing time and you have a classic, complex, full-bodied Blanco that's engaging from start to finish. 40% Alc./Vol. Tasted from a 30ml sample.
Other reviews... Clear color. Earthy, tropical, peppery, vegetal aromas and flavors of dill, salinity, green mango, white pepper, and chicory with a supple, shy, dry thin body and a tingling, long finish conveying notes of vanilla, caramel, cream, and white tea. A bright, lightly spicy and very well-balanced blanco for sipping or cocktails. 93 points - tastings.com
Peppery and lightly green on the nose, but also laced with notes of cinnamon, giving the tequila a certain breakfast-adjacent quality. Otherwise it’s mild and approachable, one of the gentlest blanco tequilas I can recall nosing in years. The palate hardly detracts from that setup, adding notes of lemon and lime peels to that baking cabinet quality. A simple grind of white pepper, a spritz of floral perfume, and a gentle note of vanilla linger as the finish — short and to the point — comes into focus. If you like your blanco tequila clean and shiny, this blanco will not disappoint. - drinkhacker.com
Nose: earth/ mineral/ pepper / hint of banana/ hint of citrus / lemongrass / hay / hint of alcohol Taste: sweet agave / vanilla/ earth / cinnamon/ anise / banana / pear / cherry / orange/ grapefruit/ anise / spearmint/ hint of cream soda Finish: very light viscous mouthfeel/ very nice smoothness across the whole taste / cool water effect / lingering anise, agave, cinnamon notes This blanco has a lot of great flavors and aromas working together. It has a nice balance between the sweet and cinnamon spicy that provides a very gratifying experience. The nose is weak and the alcohol is a touch more prevalent than what should be for a well made 40% abv, but it’s not a point stealing issue. It’s good overall, but with a touch more refinement it could be next level. - tequilamatchmaker.com

2024 Pikes Traditionale Riesling

Clare Valley, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
$22. 99
Bottle
$275.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 8 Years (2024-2032)

ABV: 11.5%

Closure: Stelvin

Pikes have long produced one of Clare Valley’s benchmark Rieslings, 2024 marking the 40th release, one which was a smooth, uninterrupted growing season that shows more forthcoming and bolder fruit whilst sacrificing nothing in terms of structure and length. Fruit is sourced predominately from the Estate’s Polish Hill River vineyard with the balance coming from growers located in the Watervale, Sevenhill, Leasingham and Mintaro districts. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel on lees for 3 months.
Brilliant water like core with greenish tinged edges. Leaping from the glass are intense lime and citrus scents which are complimented by orange rind, chalky talc and mineral notes. Zesty and racy in its feel, concentrated lime, lemon and green apple fruits fill the mouth with crisp mineral infused acidity the spine. Also evident are some subtle chalky talc and wet steel elements. Showing good tension it finishes dry, long and scrumptious.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.
Alc. 11.5%
Other Reviews….
Consistently one of the finest Rieslings from Clare, especially when you consider value for money. This vintage turned out really well for Riesling in Clare. Most of the fruit comes from Pike’s Polish Hill River vineyards with the balance from other vineyards throughout the region. There is a degree of tension yet there is power and intensity with a fine minerality and subtle citrus tang. Lovely wine for current drinking and for the cellar. Drink 2024-2034.

Ray Jordan – WinePilot.com
If there is a more reliable wine, which can provide better value than this one, anywhere in Australia, please let me know. Sourced half from estate vineyards and half from growers throughout the Clare Valley, this is the 40th consecutive release of this wine, a fine achievement. Free run juice only and then three months post fermentation on lees. A pale yellow hue, the nose exhibits typical lemon/lime aromas, with florals, grapefruit pith, river stones and oystershells. A classic Clare Riesling, everything is in place. It offers a gentle balance, with fresh acidity and impressive length. A wine which will easily see ten to fifteen years in a good cellar (I’d be prepared to put money that every single previous release, from the time they started using screwcaps more than twenty years ago, would still be drinking well – these things will rival the Californian redwoods for longevity). Drink 2024-2039.

The 2024 Traditionale Dry Riesling is dry and succulent, with ripe lime and Granny Smith apple, lemon pith and white pepper. This is magnificently delicious, with talc-like phenolics that shape the mid-palate and long finish. It is an excellent value for money, at $28 AUD / $17 USD. 11.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.

Named in tribute to Pike’s family matriarch, ‘The Merle’ is a selection of the best parcels of Riesling from their Polish Hill River Estate.
Brilliant water like colour with a faint greenish tinge around the outskirts. Bursting out of the glass are intense lime, citrus and orange rind aromas which are trailed by some green apple, talc and steely mineral notes. Tense and focused, the riveting palate features concentrated flavours of lime, lemon and Granny Smith apple. Chiselled acidity lends a taut sculptured feel with subtle orange rind, chalky talc, wet steel and flinty mineral elements extending across the back half. Outstanding power with a long, bracing finish that’s delivered with laser like precision.
Drink over the next 8-10 years.

Other Reviews…..
While the Traditionale is regularly one of the very best in its price bracket (and often well above it), The Merle never fails to sit among the very best releases of Clare Riesling, year after year, no matter what price bracket you quote. For me, this is one of our iconic Rieslings. The colour for this latest release is a near transparent lemon. The wine is elegant and refined, fresh and focused and offers drive, impeccable balance and endless length. A line of sea breeze acidity runs the length, the intensity never drops for a moment, and that freshness is still evident throughout. Fabulous stuff, this latest release is a worthy addition to the lineage. Enjoy over the next twenty years. Drink 2024-2044.

I'd be happy to lie on my back and have someone drip feed this Pikes The Merle Riesling into my mouth for the rest of my days. What an impeccable wine this is. Pure, focused, detailed and delicate all at the same time, class oozes from every pore.
It's a supreme exercise in precision and highlights the gift that the Clare Valley subregion of Polish Hill River is to the production of this fabulous variety.
Only made in exceptional years, specific parcels were selected and it was made exactly the same as the Traditionale Riesling.
Limes, lime leaf and green apple feature large but carry themselves with fabulous humility. Lemongrass and grapefruit add detail with a river stone minerality that threads its way through the frame. Pretty white field flowers offer a fresh and vibrant aroma that calls you back time and gain.
The 2024 Clare Valley Rieslings are absolutely humming and be sure to pop The Merle down as one of the wines that you need to track down. Drink to ten years+

The 2024 The Merle Riesling is powerful and tightly controlled, with a long spool of flavor—lemongrass, white pepper, cheesecloth, bay leaf and scratched lime—that draws out over the finish.

2015 Egly-Ouriet Grand Cru Millesime Champagne

Champagne, FRANCE
$1399. 00
Bottle
$16788.00 Dozen

ABV: 12.5%

Closure: Cork

The Ambonnay based Egly-Ouriet are a reference point for grower producers in Champagne, known for their impeccable vineyard management and fastidious winemaking skills. Much of their production is raised in oak barrels, with extended aging on lees a feature. As usual with Francis Egly's millesime, the blend is 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay from the same 40-year-old vines in Ambonnay, aged in barrel until bottling.
Other Reviews....
The 2015 Champagne Millésime is a bright straw color and is ripe and fruity on the nose, with aromas of black cherries, fresh violets, savory saline, and a hint of umami richness. The palate is full-bodied, with no phenolic bitterness, and never feels overtly savory. Pure, juicy, and inviting, it’s lovely and long on the palate, with a very pretty finish and a refined mousse that just frames the wine. It has a delicate note of toast that it needs time to harmonize, but I love what they have done with this vintage. Drink 2025-2045.

Chenin blanc has got a bit of a thing going on at the moment ... and I dig it.

There's a pleasing slinky, textural aspect on the palate, finishing clean with bright acidity providing plenty of velocity and verve. Drink by 2027.

Domaine Saint-Damien is run by Joel and Amie Saurel whose family has been tending vineyards for four generations, dating back to 1821.

Possibly my favorite of the trio, the 2022 Gigondas Vieilles Vignes (80% Grenache and 20% Syrah) offers a full-bodied, incredibly textured, yet seamless and elegant profile to go with lots of meaty dark fruits, some classic Southern Rhône licorice, roasted herb, and spice box nuances, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It's another sensational effort from this estate, which continues to go from strength to strength.

The intricate 2022 Gigondas Vieilles Vignes blooms with alluring strawberry compote, blackberry, black plum and spicy characteristics. Full-bodied and concentrated, the 2022 is a rock-solid rendition of this cuvée built for the long haul. Give it at least two more years in a cool cellar before pulling the cork. Drink 2026-2032.

Aberlour A'bunadh Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
$154. 99
Bottle
$1859.88 Dozen

Aberlour’s cask strength A’bunadh has long been a darling of single malt aficionados, released in batches, each varies in proof and flavour as proportions of older or younger material make the cut, but the brief remains the same: Make a 100% ex-oloroso sherry aged malt using the inventory at hand (anywhere from 5 to 25 years old). Keep it natural, which means zero chill filtration, keep it balanced and keep it affordable. No information about the number of bottles from each batch of A’bunadh is offered, but they're large outturns for a global community, which makes for a significant blending challenge. That hasn't stopped collectors and fans of sherried malts from stocking up on those that are deemed better than others. With or without water, whichever way you like it, A'bunadh is worth checking out as you encounter it, at least so long as value remains Pernod-Ricard's priority.

Fin Wines, launched in January 2020 by JonJo McEvoy, Oliver Johns, and Angus Hean, is a fermentation collective based in Dixons Creek, Yarra Valley, on Wurundjeri Country. Focused on producing fresh, fun, and highly drinkable wines, ciders, and piquettes, they use minimal intervention techniques like spontaneous fermentation, no filtering, and minimal additives. The 10-acre vineyard, planted in the early 1990s on grey-red sandy loam over clay, is sustainably farmed to preserve soil and biodiversity. Its mix of south and north-facing slopes benefits from cooling influences from nearby hills.
This 100% Pinot Gris comes from Box Grove Vineyard, planted on sandy soils ideal for whites. Handpicked in two passes, half the fruit is on Roussanne rootstock and the rest on Cabernet. A mix of carbonic and destemmed fermentation, with 5 days on skins, followed by aging in old oak and stainless steel.

The Macallan A Night On Earth In Jerez Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
$230. 00
Bottle
$2760.00 Dozen

ABV: 43%

The 2024 release in Macallan's 'A Night on Earth' series was created in collaboration with Jerez-born artist, María Melero, whose festive designs capture the spirit of celebration in her hometown. Named A Night on Earth in Jerez de la Frontera, the whisky pays tribute to the Spanish region where The Macallan’s cask journey begins, laying the foundation for the whisky that follows. It goes without saying that the spirit inside comes aged in sherry-seasoned American and European oak casks! As usual, this is bottled with a natural colour at 43% Alc./Vol. and comes with an impressive 'fold-out' presentation case.
Notes from the producers... With a deep amber colour and an aroma reminiscent of dried fruit, dark chocolate and spices, this whiskey is a true sensory experience. The palate is complex and full-bodied with notes of sherry, raisins and caramel, balanced with spices and oak, giving a long and satisfying finish.

Bruichladdich Octomore 15.1 Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Islay, SCOTLAND
$280. 00
Bottle
$3360.00 Dozen

ABV: 59.1%

The latest tranche of Octomore has arrived and is expected to be in high demand. Famous as the world's peatiest whisky, production makes up just 5% of Bruichladdich's output which explains why some expressions sell out fast. If you're new to the label, one aspect of Octomore's branding can be confusing. For each annual release, the first number stands for the series. We're up to number 15. The digit after the decimal point is where it gets complicated. ".1" signifies maturation in ex-bourbon casks. It's Octomore 'naked', so to speak, with no fancy wood treatment. ".2" is a broader classification that focuses on European oak. These casks could have previously held anything from red wine to sherry or even cognac. Finally, ".3’s" are distilled from 100% Islay barley rather than barley that might have been shipped from the mainland. American oak and European oak are used, with the formula changing for each release.
Other reviews... After 15 years of Octomore, it feels like they must have burned through all the peat in Scotland to produce this ultra-smoky whisky. Apparently that’s not the case, as the Octo-trio is back again with one question on its mind: How much peat are you ready to handle? As usual Octomore has plenty of surprises in store for you, and none of them revolve around making your mouth taste like the bottom of an ashtray. 5 years old (as is the norm), bourbon-barreled in 72% first-fill and 28% re-charred barrels; peated to 108.2 ppm of phenols — fairly low for Bruichladdich. 100% Scottish Concerto barley. A little light on the peat this year, but few may notice. Oaky, smoky, and toasty on the nose, with overtones of beef barbecue and black pepper. Vanilla and some banana fruit notes are secreted into the experience, but available if you seek them out. Quite toasty and tannic on the palate, with growing notes of smoked meats and fresh, green grass. The fruit is muted and tamped down. though the banana quality creeps into focus with time, paired with a nutty green walnut character. Smoky, charry bonfire notes are never far from reach, the finish ringed with saline and notes of wet wood. A little blunt for the brand compared to prior expressions. 118.2 proof. - drinkhacker.com
...deliciously sweet – wonderfully phenolic, but not drying or just a mouthful of carbon. It is superbly complex, with hints of vanilla, toffee, and perhaps even citrus lurking underneath the peat. - whiskyandwisdom.com
...a mix of floral and campfire smoke on the nose. The wood here delivers a sweet barbecue note full of vanilla, toffee, coconut, custard and malt, with some slightly fruity and tropical notes on the finish and offers a bit of salinity. It’s complex and delicious. - insidehook.com

The 2021 Chianti Classico is fabulous. Bright and punchy, with terrific resonance, this wine shows just how compelling the vintage is.
