Intense preserved lemon and grapefruit flavours entwined with a spirited core of acidity. Concentrated ripe lemon flavours dominate the mid-palate, while a gently spicy phenolic frame adds to the wine's bold character. The wine benefits from some air on opening.

Loaded Barrel Cannonball Bob's Barrel Aged Spiced Rum (700ml)

Melbourne, Victoria, AUSTRALIA
$78. 99
Bottle
$947.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Fermented using a sour mash technique and Australian molasses derived from local sugarcane, this rum begins with a rich, full-bodied base that sets the stage for a deeply expressive profile. Time in charred Serbian Oak barrels develops depth and complexity—oak-driven warmth mingling with subtle tannins and toasted undertones. The final infusion of native Australian spices and botanicals adds a distinctively local twist, offering aromatic intrigue and a sense of place in every sip.
Notes from the producers... Expect notes of brown sugar and sticky caramel, with lush dark fruits weaving through hints of aromatic spice. Whether savoured neat or with your favourite mixer, this rum is a refined take on a classic that is dangerously easy to drink and hard to forget.

Closure: Stelvin

From one of Western Australia’s most well known wineries and arguably the state’s premier producer of Shiraz and Riesling, this Shiraz is their entry level offering made with small additions of Touriga Nacional and Malbec to provide additional complexity and aromatic lift.

Juicy, pepper laced and well fleshed with chewy tannins, this is a highly savoury Shiraz that’s a complete steal!
Midnight black dark red core with a dark red black tinged hue. Black cherry, dark plum and liquorice aromas mix with scorched earth and peppered dried herb notes. Rich spicy dark plum, liquorice and black cherry fruits abound carrying with them a nicely fleshed feel across the mid weighted palate. Juicy mouth feel with chewy tannins and an underbelly of scorched earth, dried meats and peppered herbs. Highly savoury, it has a long pepper laced conclusion.
Drink over the next 2-3 years.

Other Reviews….
This is a good wine, and it’s good value. It’s a spicy, medium-weight style of shiraz, with a touch of positive reduction helping it along, with bell pepper and black pepper characters wedded to cherry-plum fruit. There’s also the merest whisper of musky vanilla, though oak is a low-impact player here. The tannin has a grainy, grunty aspect to it but then, it’s not overdone, and not dominant. There are no question marks here, everything is positive, though a slight warmth to the alcohol is the only thing you’d point to, if you were forced. It’s no real matter and besides, even at full price the value here is decidedly in the buyer’s favour. Drink 2025-2030.

Campbell Mattinson – The Wine Front
Dark purple hues with a ruby outer rim lead toa bouquet of ripeness and richness, aromas of dark berries and roasted plums, a dark raspberry almost jammy quality then smoky earth, a touch of boot polish wood smoke. Fleshy, fruity, varietal and dry on the palate. All the fruit scents turn into flavour on the palate set in a silky frame with fine polished tannins and medium+ acid line. A lovely example, balanced and well made with best drinking from day of purchase through 2030+.

$29. 99
Bottle
$359.88 Dozen

Cellar: 6 - 8 Years (2031-2033)

ABV: 14.8%

Closure: Stelvin

Established in 1975, this little known estate is one Heathcote’s oldest and along with Jasper Hill and Mt Ida was one of the pioneering vineyards of the region. Further plantings were made in 1996, the dry grown vines from both vineyards now well established with deep roots in the mineral rich Cambrian soil. Winemaking is undertaken by the talented Mark Hunter from Sanguine Estate and maturation takes place in French oak barriques for a period of 18 months.
Dense, powerful Heathcote Shiraz with lashings of black fruit framed by muscular tannins.
Opens with spectacular colour density featuring a super saturated pitch black heart along with an equally deep dark red black hue. Heady aromas of ripe blackberry, liquorice and dark chocolate fill the nostrils with spicy vanillin cedar, fennel and peppered earth notes also chiming in. Rich, concentrated and dense the full bodied palate is engulfed with succulent blackberry, liquorice and dark plum fruits which are framed by a muscular tannin structure. Relatively stern yet opulent in it’s feel, earth, spicy vanillin cedar, subtle dark chocolate and blackpepper elements lend further nuance. Deep and powerful it finishes long and juicy yet robust.

2024 Pierro L.T.C.

Margaret River, Western Australia, AUSTRALIA
$32. 99

Cellar: Drink now - 2 Years (2025-2027)

ABV: 13%

Closure: Stelvin

Bristling with freshness and wonderfully concentrated with ample textural volume counterpointed by crisp, mineral infused acidity.
In 1979 Mike Peterkin produced Australia’s first Semillon Sauvignon Blanc. Working at Cullen’s at the time, the wine went on to win a trophy at the Perth Royal Show. He never claimed any originality for the idea, he simply borrowed it from the French. In 1980 he was so convinced of the blend’s potential in Margaret River he devoted a third of the Pierro plantings to the varieties.
The 2024 L.T.C. is made up of 55% Sauvignon Blanc, 21% Semillon, 13.5% Chenin Blanc and 10.5% Chardonnay. Twenty five percent of the blend was fermented and matured in new and one & two year-old French oak barrels for a period of 2-3 months with the balance fermented and matured in stainless steel.
Brilliant very pale straw colour with distinctive green tinted edges and a watery hue. Passionfruit and herbaceous gooseberry aromas leap out of the glass with notions of green apple, lime, delicate pencil shavings and spice notes also present. Bristling with freshness, wonderfully concentrated passionfruit, green apple and lime fruits are layered across the scrumptious palate. Ample textural volume is counterpointed by crisp, mineral infused acidity with subtle gooseberry, quince and spice elements the undercard. Long, vivacious finish.
Drink over the next 1-2 years.

Other Reviews….
This vintage is 55% Sauvignon Blanc, 21% Semillon, 13.5% Chenin Blanc and 10.5% Chardonnay. So a little touch of two Cs here. Not Les Trois Cuvées, rather Les Quatres Cuvées.
Lime and grapefruit, a little cut grass, green tea, fennel and spice. It’s bright and has some lime and grapefruit tang, though it also has some macadamia nut richness to it and kiwi fruit juiciness. Texture is a little powdery, and it finishes with good length and sort of gin and tonic bite. A very good and interesting wine. As an aside, it looked better after being open for a day. It’s 93 or 94 points, though I’m leaning toward the latter. Drink 2025-2031+.

Increased demand worldwide for premium Bourbon has made the whiskeys of Van Winkle increasingly difficult to source. From time to time we receive very small allocations of this esteemed 107 proof 15 year old expression. It's the only one of the three in the PVW collection bottled at high proof. You get some of the sweetness associated with older Pappy, combined with a punchy, oily body and a good dose of spice. Aside from Jim Murray, the last time any major reviewer was able to sample this was back in 2012. Now it's either too expensive to open or unprocurable - or both.
Other reviews.... A dream-like Bourbon coating the mouth so perfectly... usually I spit everything I taste. I accidently found myself swallowing a drop of this without thinking. A bourbon lover's bourbon. 96 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2020.
Sometime recently, the source of this whiskey changed from the now defunct Stitzel-Weller distillery to Buffalo Trace. No matter. This whiskey is still the best of the Van Winkle line. It’s crisp, clean, vibrant, impeccably balanced, and nicely matured. Complex fruit (bramble, candied citrus), caramel, coconut custard, maple syrup, fresh spice (vanilla, warming cinnamon, nutmeg, a dusting of cocoa powder) on a bed of nougat. Outstanding! (Editor's Choice) 96 points - whiskyadvocate.com, reviewed by: John Hansell (Summer 2012)
...Hazy copper color. A rich, supple entry leads to a decandent, huge, full-bodied palate with intense caramel, toffee and peppery brown spice flavors. Finishes with an extreme long, complex, evolving fade of spice and wood notes. A seductive, exotic, and virtually flawless bourbon. 98 points (Superlative) International Review of Spirits Award: Platinum Medal - tastings.com
Nose: Mature. Inside of an old wardrobe. Leather. Date, chocolate, coffee, black cherry, cigar. Good caramelisation and a tingle of sweet spices. Palate: As nose suggests, in the bigger camp. Rich and precise. Bitter chocolate into raisin. Great balance. Finish: Long powerful. Comment: An elegant old gentleman. Great balance. Highly recommended. - Dave Broom, -whiskymag.com

Likely to be of a vintage that contains a portion of the Stitzel-Weller stocks, the dates certainly line up to have been distilled before the closure of the Shively, Louisville site in 1992.

Other reviews... The corn oils kiss and caress, the tannins barge and batter in a good cop / bad cop delivery... one of the holy grails of bourbon is to produce a consistently a 23-25 year old bourbon which is still sweet and not tannin dominated: no easy task. [this is] unquestionably drier... there are still sugars enough to give some fabulous moments on the palate. The tannins do though, still have the biggest say. But remember, this whiskey has matured for a very long time. 47.8% Alc./Vol. 95 points - Jim Murrays Whisky Bible 2020
...Nose: Deep, powerful and concentrated. This has moved into almost rancio territory: eucalypt/laurel, spice, burnt orange peel, apple, pear, biscuity wood. Palate: Soft and surprisingly delicate given the age. A charred note adds to the complexity. Gentle and elegant: cigar box, prune, molasses, soot. Finish: Long. In fact it’s very, very long and complex. Comment: A subtle sipper to be taken neat and definitely without ice! 90 points - David Broom, www.whiskymag.com

2015 Elijah Craig Barrel Proof Bourbon Whiskey (700ml) - Batch B515

$41988.00 Dozen

ABV: 69.9%

Note: Product has come from a private collection and as such may have some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product pictured.
Elijah Craig Barrel Proof – Batch B515 (2015) is one of the highest-proof releases in Heaven Hill’s bold and uncompromising Barrel Proof series, clocking in at a fiery 69.9% ABV (139.8 proof). Released as the second batch of 2015, this expression was among the earliest in the range to omit the 12-year age statement on the label — a significant shift that marked a new era for the series. Unlike Elijah Craig Small Batch, which is proofed down for consistency, each Barrel Proof batch is released uncut and non-chill-filtered, showcasing unique variations in strength and flavour.

2015 Michter's Single Barrel 20 Year Old Cask Strength Bourbon Whiskey (700ml)

Kentucky, UNITED STATES

Bottle
$239988.00 Dozen

ABV: 57.1%

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

Debuting in 2012 but not released every year, Michter's 20 year old is the second oldest age statement from the legendary distillery that has seen a meteoric rise in collectibility. Michter's state "While we regularly sample all our Michter's barrels to see how our whiskey is aging, we pay even extra special attention to our barrels once they are over 17 years old. At Michter's we consider 17 to 20 years the "Fork In The Road Point" when certain barrels of whiskey can achieve an extraordinary level of quality. It is these particular barrels that our Master Distiller Dan McKee personally selects for our very limited bottling of Michter's 20 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon."
Although the exact provenance of these early Michter's releases remains undisclosed, bourbonculture.com comments, "2012 was a busy year for Michter’s. Work was in progress for both their Shively distillery, Fort Nelson location and the continual release of both highly aged whiskies from the barrels they sourced at Willett to the new whiskies that expanded their lineup.
That’s why it was shocking to see a 20 year old bourbon being released. M20 would go on to be released every year (with the exception of 2017) in very limited amounts of bottles.
2012’s bottling was labelled “Single Barrel” but was eventually changed to reflect it was a “small batch” in 2016 and beyond. It is widely speculated that the first single barrel of M20 contained Stitzel Weller inside. It may never be known how many more releases contained the holy grail of bourbon in it, but M20 continues to draw a large fan base each year."
An interesting speculation that leads one to wonder what this 2015 release contains.

The investment upside on these releases seems to have no limits at present. This is bottle 73 of 113 released from barrel L15I739, bottled at 57.1% Alc./Vol.

The Albino Rocca 2021 Barbaresco is a big surprise. This wine is fresh and bright, showing enormous focus and purity on the bouquet. There is impressive complexity too with crushed limestone, blue flower and bright cassis. I have not tasted this wine in a while and wonder where they've been hiding this beauty.

The 2021 Barbaresco is stellar. Floral and savory overtones are beautifully defined in a lifted, chiseled Barbaresco that shows the Albino Rocca house style at its best. Vineyard sites are Meruzzano and Ronchi. A wine of delicacy and understatement, the 2021 is a delight. This is what Barbaresco is all about. Drink 2024-2031.

The 2021 Barbaresco Ronchi comes across as a bit youthfully austere relative to some of the other wines in the range. Chalk, mint, white pepper, scorched earth and strong mineral notes infuse the Ronchi with tremendous power to match its sinewy, driving personality. This vivid, sculpted Barbaresco is hugely promising. Drink 2026-2036.

The younger wine here is the 2020 Viña Alberdi, a versatile version of the Haro reds. It was produced with Tempranillo fermented in stainless steel and matured in American oak barrels for two years (it's sold as Reserva in international markets and Crianza in Spain). It has 14% alcohol with a pH of 3.6 and five grams of acidity. It has a classical nose of ripe fruit, American oak and spices, the subtle notes of forest floor, still young. The palate is velvety and very balanced with polished tannins. Approachable but should also age. 650,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in June 2023. Drink 2024-2029.

Luis Gutiérrez - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
A classical, typical Rioja Alta red with elegant notes of vanilla, coconut, smoked spices and strawberries. Refined and suave, with fine tannins and a long, creamy finish. Juicy and elegant. Really approachable now, but give it two more years to get more mushroom complexity.

2017 was not an easy harvest, but it produced some beautiful and classical wines, like the 2017 Viña Ardanza Reserva, which shows a little more advancement and polish and is ready to drink. It was produced with 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha from their vineyard La Pedriza in Tudelilla. It fermented in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts and matured in American oak barrels, 36 months for the Tempranillo and 30 for the Garnacha (that was harvested 15 days later), with six rackings. It's ripe and aromatic, tertiary, with 14.5% alcohol and mellow acidity, a medium-bodied palate and sleek tannins. It has a pungent note of clove and pepper, some licorice and ink and the cherries in liqueur from the Garnacha. An updated classical Ardanza. 600,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2021. Drink 2024-2034.

Luis Gutiérrez - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
A more vibrant and fruitier expression of Ardanza this year with strawberries, mussels, warm spices and berries. Round and silky on the palate with lovely spices and a long, nicely saline finish. A nice touch of creaminess works really well here and further extends the finish. 80% tempranillo and 20% garnacha. Drink or hold.

With a Barossa heritage going back six generations this renown family owned Estate knows a thing or two about producing top notch Shiraz. This offering is one of their icon wines that sells for around $120 but under it’s Nicks Secret guise it can be had at $90.00 off for just $29.99. Only produced in exceptional vintages maturation took place in American oak (40% new) for a period of 18 months with only the best barrels selected for the final blend.
Rich, powerful and possessing a silky, cashmere-like feel, this is a super seductive Barossa Shiraz.
Dense pitch black in colour with a dark red black tinged hue. Aromas of dark plum, liquorice, dark chocolate and vanillin oak engulf the nostrils followed by some mocha, earth and spice notes. The rich, voluptuous palate is layered with a thick coating of dark plum, liquorice, blackberry and mocha flavours which are complimented by underlying toasty vanillin oak, earth and spice elements. Boasting outstanding power and opulence, a liquid silk like texture largely conceals the tannins. Concludes long, decadent and velvety.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.

Here is pure Barossa richness and power expressed with refined poise and a high degree of elegance. It’s a result of the best barrel selection to produce a wine that captures so much of the Barossa in a good year. It was small batch fermented before the barrel selection process and shows deep, concentrated and lavishly textured fruit with a layered complexity that is both powerful and long. It’s loaded with black fruits, typical dark chocolate and mocha, and a slightly spicy nuance. There’s real richness here and intensity, and it’s all presented so marvellously. A most expressive example of the Barossa. Drink 2025-2045.

Gracefully opulent and seductively complex, the bouquet shows dark fruit richness, toasty oak, clove, cinnamon and dark cocoa aromas, followed by a concentrated palate displaying terrific weight and plush mouthfeel. Wonderfully framed by beautifully melded tannins, finishing superbly long and stylish. At its best: now to 2037.

ABV: 13%

Closure: Cork

Other Reviews....
The 2019 Saumur Champigny is a ripe style showing the dry season yet retaining plentiful freshness. This is the result of very low yields, which are the combination of early budbreak and frost, followed up by drought. High skin to juice ratio led to a rather drying tannin, lending some hard grip to the long, scented finish. Drink 2026-2040.

A delicately fragrant expression of Cabernet Franc. There's a charming, silky start to the 2019 Les Poyeux , sitting pretty in the mouth. There's definite ripeness of fruit with a fondant-like softness on the mid-palate providing flesh, yet this wine remains light on its feet, focused and fresh. Aromatically lifted with a touch of balsamic, red cherry, blackberry, spice and black olive. The tannins have a tight pinch on the finish, perhaps caused by the year's drought or it may need more time...We'll see. Drink 2026-2040.

ABV: 13%

Other Reviews....
There's something of northern Rhône Syrah on the nose of the 2019 Le Bourg with its smoked meats and ripe red fruit plus a hint of menthol. There's always a succulence to this cuvée, showing completeness–everything is in its place. Excellent concentration of fruit from a frost-affected crop. Low yields and small berries also created plentiful of tannins that display a chalky sinew. Dry, long, scented finish with festive spice, smoked notes that come from the barrel. Drink 2026-2042.

Other Reviews....
The nose of the 2019 Brézé is richly fruited and creamy, showing tropical pineapple characters and giving the impression of opulence. It is concentrated and powerful with real intensity of flavor. Well-judged oak use lends a smoky, spice note while acidity and salinity pull it all together. This is dry Chenin Blanc at its best—ripe, powerful and fresh. Drink 2025-2039.

Furneaux Distillery Untamed Gin (700ml)

Tasmania, AUSTRALIA
$84. 99
Bottle
$1019.88 Dozen

ABV: 42%

Ingredients include flowering kunzea, native rosemary, wild fennel and traditional gin botanicals. Creamy nose feel, suggests elderflower, citrus oils and juniper over early-root-like notes, lifted by white pepper and cardamom. Rounded, soft texture; impressive body with medium-dry flavours laced with pepper, citrus and herbal character. Finish sees a subtle anise freshness alongside juniper. Ends spicy, cleansing, minerally and wonderfully dry. Offers something different in a crowded category while remaining distinctively ‘ginny’ - which is no mean feat. 42% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... An excellent, well-considered use of botanicals, this gin presents cohesion between the aroma and palate. The somewhat restrained ABV is well-integrated and pleasant, allowing each flavour's nuance to be showcased and come through. This gin has two schools of flavour: the coastal, summer sea breeze quality and a warmer baked citrus quality. Both work in tandem to build an interesting, engaging and versatile spirit. These elements are not always harmonious. However, the heavier use of anise forward botanicals is a guiding flavour to effortlessly envelope and create a thoughtful & polished spirit. 94 points - Jess Clayfield, winecompanion.com.au

Furneaux Distillery Flinders Island Peated Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml)

Tasmania, AUSTRALIA
$220. 00
Bottle
$2640.00 Dozen

ABV: 48.2%

The beefiest whisky in the Furneaux line up opens with a nice co-mingling of sherry and malt on the nose. The peat is beautifully handled, of the cured meats and wood-smoke variety, executing a full-bodied dram that rolls about the mouth, barely suggesting the ABV; Sleek and sooty to finish, all so well controlled with the oily peat, light peppers and sweet barley extending the profile. Effortless and polished. Ardmore meets Caol Ila meets a new Tassie star. You can’t help but be impressed. 48.2% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Other reviews... Made with Tasmanian barley smoked post-malting with Flinders Island peat, the nose on this whisky is fascinating - almost like smoked chocolate - and like nothing I've ever smelled in a whisky before. Truly unique in a way that's rare in the world of whisky. Grassy and earthy aromas like freshly cut green capsicum are almost reminiscent of mezcal but without the underripe or volatile notes of a whisky bottled too young. There's enough oak and smoke here to round it out, along with lovely notes of maple syrup sweetness and orange zest, and the integration of oak and spirit is impressive. It's rare to have a smokey whisky that still smells so fresh, so that's ... refreshing. Powerful alcohol on the front palate dissipates quickly to a lovely roasted and candied macadamia nuttiness, and again the integration is impressive with a surprisingly easy, sweet finish. It could use more oiliness and texture to match the alcohol - it isn't a drink for those afraid of a little heat - but on the other hand, it's very drinkable for a whisky with so much power. Incredibly impressive for such a young distillery. Are there peated Scotch whiskies on the market that are better priced for similar quality? Yes. But this is a truly unique whisky made in a truly unique place without the backing of multinational corporations, and that's worth paying for. 96 points - Fred Siggins, winecompanion.com.au

Furneaux Distillery Sawyers Bay Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml)

Tasmania, AUSTRALIA
$199. 99
Bottle
$2399.88 Dozen

ABV: 46.6%

Probably intended as an after-dinner dram: Plump, but not confected, the port influence brings body to the bouquet with hints of dried cranberry; Same on the palate, the wine filling out the malt with a layer of richness. Poise is carefully considered - no excessive sugars here, just a lovely soft, fruity-malt vibe with a flurry of spices and fine tannins carrying the aftertaste - and despite the high ABV, this is (arguably) the most accessible of the current Furneaux lineup. 49.1% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Other reviews... This well-balanced single malt displays a lovely soft nose of fudgy, Christmas pudding, Aussie Apera and a delicacy that belies its youth. Maybe it's wishful imagination, but there's a note of coastal grass and rain on rocks that speaks to the island home, along with powerful notes of ripe fruits, melon and red apple in particular, a hallmark of good Aussie single malt in the same way it's a hallmark of good Aussie pale ale. This whisky has a lot in common with other Tassie whiskies, so it is very recognisable for its region, but with no rough edges hiding under the oak - an unfortunately common problem on the Apple Isle - which shows a deft hand in the stillhouse and a careful nose in the blending room. The palate is light and approachable, with a fresh apple and mild tannin on the finish, giving this whisky the gravitas that the lovely nose deserves. While lacking the complexity or texture to be truly exceptional, it's a prime example of what makes Aussie whisky great and something I'd be proud to show off to anyone in the world. At $200 a pop, it's not cheap, but given the genuine craft approach taken here, the price is justified. If this is the quality they're producing this early in the game, there are very good things ahead for Furneaux. 94 points - Fred Siggins, winecompanion.com.au

Renais Gin (700ml)

UNITED KINGDOM
$109. 99
Bottle
$1319.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Short for 'Renaissance', Renais is the brainchild of Emma Watson, of Harry Potter fame, together with her brother James who works in the drinks industry. It begins with the grape skins left after pressing from their father's vineyard in Chablis. These, along with lees from the wine are distilled to produce a base spirit which is blended with "Kimmeridgian stone distillate", produced from an infusion of rocks from northern Burgundy. Add the necessary botanicals and you have a fresh, dry, juniper-led style. Tasters have also noted a distinctive minerality, typical of the Chablis region's wines. 40% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... Renais is a luxury gin brand in the UK that’s so fancy they released a limited edition bottle featuring artwork from Emma Watson. On a recent trip to London the brand was kind enough to send me a sample of the gin — in the boring old normal person bottle, mind you — which I dutifully carted back to the U.S. for review. As far as I can tell it isn’t available on our shores. Renais is made as an homage to Burgundy in France, distilled from salvaged Grand Cru grape skins collected after being pressed to make wine. Botanicals include (but may not be limited to) juniper, grains of paradise, linden flowers, and acacia honey. Golden yellow in color, the gin has the appearance of a cocktail that’s ready to drink, but the nose is classic London dry — heavy, biting juniper with a sultry angelica earthiness underneath. It’s very peppery with mild notes of anise and less distinct florals, largely dried, to wind things up. On the palate, the gin is a powerhouse. Fans of modern, more gossamer gins will laugh in the face of Renais. Powerful notes of juniper, rosemary, and thyme give the gin an immediate punch of green herbs, as piney as a walk amongst the evergreens can be. The drinker is in for some surprises, however, as a brisk citrus quality soon becomes clear, followed by a growing, insistent sweetness. The acacia honey in the mix is no joke, providing a soothing backbone against which the aggressive herbal notes can find some rest. The finish is lightly sweet and tinged with florals again, making for a spirit that is delightful on its own but also a natural companion with tonic. - drinkhacker.com

Gelston's 26 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Irish Whiskey (700ml)

Bottle
$9588.00 Dozen

ABV: 54.2%

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

As far as we can tell Gelstons is independently owned but they source all their whiskey from Bushmills. Frank McHardy of Springbank fame was the head distiller of Bushmills during this time. So probably no coincidence the stuff is very good. General consensus is that it's an "Irish fruit bomb". 54.2% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... Nose: whoua! A basket of exotic fruits, the nose is sublime. A mixture of watermelon, pineapple, mango, passion fruit, enhanced by a little toasted or even roasted malt. A superb multi vitamin! :-) Palate: freshness ...... fruit juice ...... I expected something less linear. Final: a finish on the passion fruit, mango, moderately short. Comments: the alcohol is perfectly integrated. A very good fruit juice flavored with whisky is not bad. Even if this juice is perfect, I expected more panache. - whiskybase.com

Notes from a similar bottling... The cognac-cask finish finesses the intensity and concentration of the lush fruity character of this whisky. A complex interplay of peach, apricot, apple, pineapple, lemon zest, thick-cut marmalade, oak, faint spices, and dried fruit on the nose. A thick velvety mouthfeel of sweet orange, grapefruit, and lime sweeps to a climax of peppercorn and clove, then it abates with dried apricot, papaya, and marzipan-wrapped Battenberg cake.

Isle of Jura 30 Year Old Camas An Staca Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Bottle

ABV: 44%

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

'Standing Stone', or ‘Camas an Staca’ in Gaelic, takes its name from the largest of Jura’s eight standing stones. Known as ‘The Bay of the Protecting Rocks’, this imposing 12 foot obelisk is reputedly all that remains of a stone circle laid some 3,000 years ago by the earliest Diurachs to appease the spirits. The iconic Jura bottle is presented in a beautiful display case that opens its doors to reveal the story of the whisky. Meticulously detailed, the bottle is in-filled with copper wax with a matching metal plaque. 44% Alc./Vol.

Other reviews... The latest addition to the Jura range has been matured in American white oak casks before spending three years in Gonzalez Byass oloroso sherry butts. The mellow nose is lightly oily, with figs, sherry, orange, and a savory note. Vanilla emerges, along with malt, and finally a hint of cinnamon and parma violets. Soft and supple on the palate, with more orange, plus cocoa, sultanas, and dates. The finish is lengthy and features dark chocolate, raisins, aniseed, and subtle spices. 89 points - whiskyadvocate.com

This baby was finished in Oloroso sherry casks from Gonzalez Byass'. The funny name means standing stone. Colour: apricoty, almost pink. Nose: starts on frankly vinous notes, its not that it’s unpleasant, it’s just a little excessive. The good news is that all that would just go away after a few seconds, leaving more room for a complex range of citrus fruits, both dried and fresh. Oranges are very obvious, then rather citrons. Touches of baklavas, orange blossom, pomegranates, then more cigars, raisins, chocolate and just a little leather as well as a few floral notes, mainly peonies. All that is rather smooth and easy-going, although more mineral notes do rise after a few minutes. Graphite oil? Mouth: excellent attack, quite old style, with a fruitiness that reminds me of both old Bowmores and Benriach, although this one is soon to become a little drier and slightly chalky. Also a little chlorophyll and this leather from the sherry. Walnuts. Touches of salt. Finish: medium long, even drier now, the fruits have almost vanished and it all gets quite tea-ish and cigary. Cinnamon and nutmeg in the aftertaste as well as a little smoke. Fino sherry or vin jaune. Comments: very high quality but I feel the dry sherry is sometimes overwhelming ‘in the background’, with its, well, dryness. Otherwise it would have been 90+ material. 87 points - whiskyfun.com

Compass Box The Peat Monster Blended Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

SCOTLAND
$144. 99
Bottle
$1739.88 Dozen

ABV: 46%

Compass Box is a specialist company started in 2000 devoted to making some of Scotland's most unique whiskies through the art of blending. Similar to fine wine negociants, they choose individual casks from different distilleries that offer complementary sets of flavours. They then carefully blend these casks in small batches to make proprietary malt whiskies, grain whiskies, and malt & grain blends from distilleries across Scotland. Compass Box is also renowned for having (arguably) the industry’s highest quality standards for oak cask selection. When one considers that oak is responsible for up to 70% of the flavour of a mature whisky, one understands their mania. Only 100% American oak is used (predominantly first-fill casks). The colour of all the Compass Box whiskies is the natural colour of the whiskies from the casks. No caramel is added. The whiskies are also not chill filtered (a cosmetic process which strips flavour and texture from the whisky). As founder, John Glaser says, “Hazy whisky is a good sign that the whisky maker wants you to taste everything the whisky has to offer.” These are indeed alluring whiskies for the free-thinking enthusiast.
Peat Monster, like all vatted malts, is made by marrying 100% single malt whiskies from different distilleries, including lead distilleries like Ardmore, Caol ila and Laphroaig (they might change over time). Components are aged between 10-15 years, however. we're informed that the recipe has evolved to include older and more elegant Islay malts since 2019. This is a fantastic late-night whisky that also works beautifully in a classic Scotch whisky Highball.
Other reviews... The formula for this whisky has changed slightly since its inception -- and I think for the better. They've added some Laphroaig into the mix of Caol Ila and Ardmore. This whisky demonstrates the layered complexity that can be achieved by marrying whisky from different distilleries and different regions. I particularly enjoy the rich maltiness and oily texture that provide firm bedding and flavor contrast to the classic Islay notes: tar, boat docks, brine, smoked olive, seaweed, and kiln ash. More subtle cracked peppercorn, mustard seed, and citrus fruit add complexity. Long, warming finish. Amazing how a small change in composition can significantly benefit the overall flavor profile of a whisky. 94 points - whiskyadvocate.com
Pale golden color. Sweet clover honey, heather, and peat aromas. A soft, yet rich, entry leads to a sweetish medium-full body with caramel, orange peel, raw honey, toast, vibrant peat and pepper flavors. Finishes with a honeycomb, iodine, and toasty grain fade. Very drinkable, exquisitely balanced, and approachable with vibrant, but (despite the name) not dominant peatiness. 46% Alc./Vol.

Furneaux Distillery Smoky Wedding Peated Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml)

Tasmania, AUSTRALIA
$220. 00
Bottle
$2640.00 Dozen

ABV: 46.5%

Just a few degrees lower in alcohol makes this feel considerably lighter compared to the Peated Double Oak; Easy-going without lacking depth, here Furneaux’s distillate is a little closer to centre stage, the malt glazed with a lovely oily texture from the peat. Some maritime character adds interest, with active x-Bourbon wood in support. Match it against any 12 year old Scotch. Remarkably good at such a young age. 46.5% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.
Notes from the producers... A combination of Flinders Island coastal peated malt and Scottish peated malt makes up the mash bill in this inimitable whisky. Matured in ex Heaven Hill and Makers Mark Bourbon casks. Salty caramel and cacao on the nose with soft citrus. Peat and sweetness pops on the front palate like a smoky candy pearl. Rich and balanced with great texture, the Scottish peat influence bring a chewy, iodine sweetness, while our Flinders peat lengthens the finish with a soft earthy aromatic smoke.

Daylesford Spirit Miner's Navy Strength Australian Gin (700ml)

Victoria, AUSTRALIA
$97. 99
Bottle
$1175.88 Dozen

ABV: 58%

The nose shows early evidence of drier styled juniper and an appealing earthy/stony mineral quality accompanied by rosemary and white pepper heat; later inhalations are herbal-fresh, deepening and intensifying with citrus oils and crushed pine buds. Entry is creamy, deceptively soft; mid-palate flavours build with an oily texture and a slow crescendo that sees the earthy-root elements take flight alongside bursts of pepper, fresh grapefruit, orange zest and sustained juniper. Fades cleansing, long, earthy and complex. 58% Alc./vol.
Notes from the producers... A unique representation of the flavours that the Daylesford region provides - a vibrant gin, opening with a gentle herbal bouquet and introducing grassy-leafy spiciness upfront. Infused with marmalade, citrus, and juniper notes, the palate unfolds with a harmonious blend of sweet and savoury spices, with citrus essence lingering gracefully through the finish.

ABV: 46%

Other reviews... A whiff of mealy, floury apples, pear, candied lemon peel, and fruit teas, this is certainly light and fruity, genteel even, yet a little timid overall. Soothing and creamy to drink, there's poached pears in condensed milk, white grape, a slow-paced crescendo of spice, and a dash of tangy citrus peel, followed by canned pears and a whir of spices on the finish. Carefree whisky for happy-go-lucky drinkers. 89 points - whiskyadvocate.com
...This isn’t an Autumnal whisky, though. At least, not for me it isn’t. The season of mists and mellow fruitfulness generally sees me reaching for decadent drams from the likes of Edradour, Glendronach and Glenallachie, as the nights draw in and the spicy warmth of a sherry cask begins to trump the understated elegance of something that’s matured in ex-bourbon. If anything, this is a whisky for these long, warmer days of summer; a dram to pour alongside one of those hazy IPAs as you sit out late into the night with friends. It’s a bottle that you can leave on the table when you have guests over for a barbeque, secure in the knowledge that it’s easily replaced if they drink it all, and that there are no idiosyncrasies or challenging notes that a beginner might find off putting. The only thing I would suggest, if you do buy a bottle, is to give it a chance to open up. Like I said, I’ve had several now, and one thing I’ve found is that the neck pour often tends to be quite uptight. - dramface.com

A travel retail release that debuted in 2016, joining the 18 year old and a host of re-branded age statements. Readers should note, two different Aberfeldy 28 year olds were offered. The distillery released the 'Gold of Pitilie 28 year old’ (named after their Pitilie Burn water source). Only eight bottles of this 1985 vintage were produced, adorned with 22 and 24 carat gold leaf and priced at around AU$5K each. We have the ‘standard’ 40% ABV edition.

Other reviews... Surprisingly viscous for 40% ABV (though still could have a wee bit more oomph for my liking) and delivering a rich and creamy arrival which emphasises both sweetness and wood. Toffee and fudge are joined by ripe apples, poached pears and a heavy dose of old wood in the form of leather bound books, furniture polish and tobacco... a lovely drinking experience – it’s the type of whisky that’s both indulgent and refined, but also easy to get along with. Great balance of sweetness and bitterness with an old wood profile that still allows the more fruity underpinning flavours to shine through. Very tasty stuff indeed. Alas, the price of this one has completely skyrocketed. - thedramble.com

Nick Glaetzer began his winemaking journey with his family in the Barossa Valley, following with vintages in the Languedoc, the Pfalz, Margaret River, the Riverland, Sunraysia, the Hunter Valley and Burgundy. In 2005 Nick landed in Tasmania, searching for cool-climate, super-premium vineyards; perfect for crafting Pinot Noir, Riesling and savoury Shiraz.

The palate is full of drive and precision, showing bright acidity with lemon pith, crushed stones and a hint of jasmine. Linear and focused, with a long, mineral-edged finish. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Mid weighted and elegant with juicy blue to dark fruits.
Deep dark red black tinged colour with a red purple hue. Fragrant dark plum, blueberry and liquorice aromas intermix with hints of dried herbs and vanillin spice. Juicy blueberry and plum fruits drive the elegant mid weighted palate with subtle red liquorice, dried herb, earth and spice elements ensuing. Polished tannins with good underlying freshness and a savoury finish that has a dash of spice to it.

Three varieties that go together so well, especially if the result is this juicy and appealing drink. Lots of enticing aromatics from musk, sarsaparilla and red berries. The mid-weighted palate follows suit with more woodsy spices, licorice and a flood of sweet fruit. Very satisfying and a brilliant price, too. Drink by 2030.

2019 Nicks Secret SERP Cabernet Sauvignon

McLaren Vale, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
Reduced from $79.99
$29. 99
Bottle
$359.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 5 Years (2025-2030)

ABV: 15.5%

Closure: Stelvin

From a very well-known family owned estate with an Italian-Australian heritage, this McLaren Vale winery burst onto the scene in the early 2000’s when the then, world's most powerful wine critic, Robert Parker, lauded many of the wines with scores in the high nineties.
This, their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon, is made in the traditional Amarone style whereby the grapes are dried to concentrate the aromas and flavours, as well as soften the tannins.
A powerhouse Cabernet made in the traditional Amarone style.
Totally opaque black dark red colour with a very dark brick red hue. Wafting out of the glass is a complex array of morello cherry, black cherry, liquorice, cassis and black plum scents which are trailed by some vanillin cedar, cinnamon and spicy tobacco notes. Rich, concentrated and voluptuous in its feel across the thick, weighty palate are all engulfing morello cherry, blackcurrant, black cherry, liquorice and black plum fruits. Vanillin cedar, earth, sweet tobacco and spicy cinnamon elements lie beneath. Initially silky tannins firm up on the back half, providing admirable structure. Boasting outstanding power and depth, the long, plush yet sturdy conclusion is delivered with plenty of sophistication.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.

You’d think they were crazy making an Amarone style from cabernet sauvignon. Amarone is one of Italy’s greatest wines made from dried grapes which concentrate the flavours and tannins to create long lived wines. But with cabernet sauvignon – a wine that is already loaded with tannins – this is surely a disaster in the making, but apparently not….
This is a gorgeous wine, and my pick of the current new releases, which packs a serious punch. The colour is deep suggesting a big dense style but the wine is surprisingly light on its feet. Sweet, pure and vibrant blackcurrant fruits are tempered by dried herbs with some sweeter blackberry underneath. Oak is there too but sits in the background. This then leads to a bold and explosive palate full of power and energy – fruit pastille flavours are supported by fine acidity that is all underpinned by significant but well handled tannins. It is soooooo long too with the fruit concentration holding that flavour for minutes. A delicious wine stacked full of personality that is hard to put down. Drink 2023-2032.

The 2019 ******* Cabernet Sauvignon is made from partially dried grapes. After being air-dried for approximately nine weeks and losing approximately 30% of their weight, the grapes are pressed. The resulting wine is a potent, cassis and herb-laced offering with hints of dark chocolate and caramel yet never heavy or overdone. Full-bodied, rich and possessing a layered texture and a lingering finish, it's a terrific example of *******, with at least a decade of cellaring potential. Drink 2021-2030.

The wine shows stunning fruit purity as well as seductive complexity with cassis, sweet plum, tobacco and spicy oak characters. It’s impressively concentrated and persistent, displaying awesome power brilliantly structured by loads of fine tannins. Multi-layered and graceful. At its best: 2024 to 2039.

2021 Isole e Olena Cepparello

Tuscany, ITALY
$250. 00
Bottle
$3000.00 Dozen

Cellar: 8 - 10 Years (2033-2035)

ABV: 15%

Closure: Stelvin

An exceptionally powerful Sangiovese with energetic red fruit sculptured by chiselled tannins and lively acidity.
In the 1950s, the father of current winemaker Paolo de Marchi purchased the adjoining hamlets of Isole and Olena and their estates in the Tuscan commune of Barberino Val d'Elsa. Paolo entered the business in 1976 and the quality of the estate’s wines improved rapidly after decades of sharecropping. Paolo de Marchi is one of the region's kings of the Sangiovese grape and at a time when Chianti was a blended wine it was, he that stepped out to produce wines that were 100% Sangiovese. Cepparello is the true embodiment of a ‘Super Tuscan’ wine and one of Italy's most iconic wines.
Deep dark red black in colour with a dark red hue. The aromatically gorgeous nose is blessed with a kaleidoscope of red to dark currant, dark cherry, red liquorice and violet scents. Dried herb, subtle tobacco, earth and spice notes lend further nuance. Delicious, energetic red to dark cherry, red currant and red liquorice fruits are sculptured by chiselled tannins and lively acidity. Exceptionally powerful, it has a tense, muscular feel with the back half complexed by notions of dried herbs, tobacco, earth and spice. Finishes fresh and slightly grippy with outstanding length.
Cellar 8-10 years.

Intense and floral wine, full of restrained aromas, such as potpourri, together with vibrant red cherries, licorice, bergamot and lightly balsamic depth. The firm tannins and full body provide a velvety and extracted texture. Powerful wine, yet tight-knit and super polished. Refreshing with a tense, fruity finish. Super classic. Drink or hold.

One of Tuscany's flagship wines, the Isole e Olena 2021 Cepparello immediately delivers ripe fruit flavors that are firm, even crunchy, and that bodes well for the future evolution of this classic vintage. The wine is packed with tart fruit flavors followed by balanced acidity. Compared to past vintages that are more extracted and dense, this edition is delightfully bright and transparent. I appreciation the age-worthy direction Cepparello is taking. Drink 2025-2048.

Plum, cherry and pomegranate fruit is framed by toasty oak and mineral flavors in this lively and succulent red, which offers plenty of energy, with elements of tar and oak on the persistent finish. Shows fine balance, with the dense tannins leaving room for the fruit in the end. Needs time. Sangiovese. Best from 2027 through 2043.
