Papalin Reunion 10 Year Old Vatted Rum (700ml)

FRANCE
$220. 00
Bottle
$2640.00 Dozen

ABV: 50%

After a release dedicated to Jamaica, the spotlight shifts to France's Reunion Island, located east of Madagascar. Here we have an intriguing blend of pot-distilled molasses-based rums from four different distilleries. It equates to a total of 32 casks (including ex-cognac, ex-bourbon and ex-whisky), all entirely aged in their respective distillery warehouses in a tropical climate. Rums up to 15 years old are in the mix, but at its heart is an 11 year old 'Grande Arome' - the French Caribbean equivalent of a high ester Jamaican. We're told this should please fans of Savanna or light Grand Arome funk who want a dry, naturally unsweetened sipper. Bottled November 2023. 50% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... On the nose, medicinal notes like glue, esters, oak, roasted wood notes, sweet, flowery molasses with honey and fermented, almost rotten, pungent tropical fruits, strawberries, vegetal notes, bump into our nostrils. On aeration, roastedness is strong with smokiness, leather, cinammon arises, some citrus fruits. On the palate, the attack is strong, pungent with overripe, fermented red and citrus fruits, hints if sugarcane, honey, vegetal molasses that on oxidation goes grassy, herbaceous, flowery, even dark with black tea, the wood is roasted/toasted, sweet with pastry, caramel, leather, spicy with cinnamon, nutmeg, salty. The finish is long, furry and tannic, with tons of fermented fruits, vegetal notes, smoky and spicy roasted wood, grassy and sweet molasses with honey. - rumratings.com

Janneau XXO Grand Armagnac (700ml)

Armagnac, FRANCE
$199. 99
Bottle
$2399.88 Dozen

The beautifully presented XXO (Extra Extra Old or Hors d'Age) is intended to showcase the skills of Janneau's Master Blender, working from a rigorous selection of eaux-de-vie chosen especially for their superior aromatic qualities. The composition includes Ugni Blanc, Baco and Folle Blanche from Tenareze and Bas Armagnac. The youngest eau-de-vie in this blend is a 14 year old - well above the minimum legal age of ten years, and much of it significantly older than that. As a general rule, Armagnacs in this category work well paired with dishes such as guinea fowl with fruit, roast duck breast with honey, cep mushroom omelette or with fruit-based desserts such as a tarte tatin, pear charlotte, candied oranges and those made with chocolate like a black forest gateau or chocolate mousse.
Notes from the producers... Nose: Pear, vine peach, mirabelle plum and cherry blossom. Palate: Candied prune, quince jelly, cocoa finish and roasted hazelnuts.

Janneau VS Tradition Grand Armagnac (700ml)

Armagnac, FRANCE
$69. 99
Bottle
$839.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

As French brandies go, Armagnac is the lesser-known rival to Cognac, despite being its forerunner. It usually stems from small family producers - unlike the big multinational names that dominate Cognac. Janneau is reputedly Armagnac's oldest house. Their VS is aged for at least three years, distilled from Baco and Ugni Blanc harvested from the two main regions of the Appellation - Ténarèze and Bas-Armagnac resulting in a light and supple expression.
Other reviews... See, even the Armagnacqais are now adding age statements to their young spirits. A matter of trust and transparency! Colour: gold. Nose: lovely, fresh, fruity, full of yellow peaches, golden raisins, and yellow melons (Spanish?) Orchard fruits. It’s not an old-style ‘caramelised’ armagnac at all, even if it does get a little fudge-y after a few minutes. Vanilla fudge. Mouth: well, the vanilla got a little loud for me, and the spirit’s a little rough, perhaps. Not feinty of course, but perhaps a little too eau-de-vie-ish, reminding us of some ‘white’ armagnacs that they like to drink down there in the Gers region. The vanilla and the oak are a little prominent, and make me think of many a modern Scotch malt whisky. Right NAS. Finish: rather short, an a little oaky. Comments: the nose was quite superb, but the palate’s pretty uninteresting. Unless, I guess, you add a few ice cubes. Maybe that’s the point… 75 points - whiskyfun.com

Papalin Jamaica 5 Year Old High Ester Vatted Rum (700ml)

JAMAICA
$139. 99
Bottle
$1679.88 Dozen

ABV: 57%

A follow-up Jamaican effort from the house of Velier, blended by Luca Gargano and bottled in October 2024. The result of 63 tropically aged barrels from three distilleries, at 47% Alc./Vol., this should be one of the more accessible high ester expressions released by this independent to date.
Other reviews... A blend of three ‘pot still’ Jamaicans. This ought to be compact, with each of the three distilleries naturally cancelling out some of the others’ character. Or not – let’s have a look, especially as nowhere is it stated that the three distilleries are present in equal proportions. Colour: gold. Nose: dry-cured ham with dried banana and pistachio oil, plus some new plastics à la supermarket bag – alas those were banned here some years ago, so I’m relying on memory. In any case this feels more like ‘low esters’ than ‘high esters'. With water: go easy with the water or it drifts off into rainwater and silt. Not a great swimmer, then, but that doesn’t mean anything. Mouth (neat): now we’re talking – excellent, young, a little rough, sharp and dry, but with notes of rambutan in syrup. Really. With water: some floral touches. Finish: not very long, truth be told. Comments: excellent stuff, though it does feel a little as though the components have somewhat cancelled each other out indeed, yielding a rather light rum. Light for a Jamaican that’s not Appleton, of course. Wait, is there Appleton in here? Either way, this is the gentlest of the high esters we’ve tried in recent months. 84 points - whiskyfun.com

Janneau VSOP Grand Armagnac (700ml)

Armagnac, FRANCE
$79. 99
Bottle
$959.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

"Very superior quality, old and pale" is the precise translation for this category, a term hailing from traditional Anglo-Saxon traders. Armagnac regulations stipulate that a VSOP brandy is made from a blend of eaux-de-vie aged for at least four years in oak. In practice, the Armagnac houses often use much older stocks as they make for a richer experience. In this case, spirits up to 20 years old were drawn from French oak casks stored in Janneau's ancient cellars. 40% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... Sweet aromas of vanilla bean and oak tinged with orange peel lead the nose. Oak also leads the palate, balancing between tannic dryness and richer vanilla, winding into a spiced finish dusted with cocoa powder. 91 points - winenethusiast.com
Notes from the producers... Nose: Fig and honey aromas, oaky and tannic. Hints of leather and caramel. Palate: Persistent impression of toasted golden raisins and spices. Notes of fruit jelly.

Janneau XO Grand Armagnac (700ml)

Armagnac, FRANCE
Reduced from $125.00
$119. 99
Bottle
$1439.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Armagnac is France's oldest brandy, recognised since the Middle Ages for its therapeutic properties. It came into its own in the 15th century, with trade peaking in the 1800s. The region's vineyards were subsequently destroyed by phylloxera, only to be replanted at the beginning of the 20th century. In 1909 a decree was issued under the presidency of a local boy, President Fallières, delimiting the region permitted to produce the brandy, finally defining the Armagnac Appellation Contrôlée and its three regions in 1936.
At Janneau, the oldest of the great Armagnac houses, the spirit is distilled in two different ways: "Armagnacais" (single, continuous distillation) and "Double Distillation" which involves pot stills. In the latter, wine flows from a vat to the first still acting as the cooling agent and allowing the vapours to condense. This first product is called "brouillis" and is distilled again, however the liquid at the very beginning and end of the process (called the "head & tail") is left out as it contains some impurities. Only the heart – that part which achieves the desired quality – is kept. The freshly distilled Armagnac is clear, decidedly fruity with occasional plum, green apple and vanilla notes.
The XO is the brand's flagship expression, blending Baco and Ugni Blanc eaux-de-vie from Bas-Armagnac and Ténarèze. While the youngest liquid in the composition is ten years old, others have been resting in oak for more than three decades. Expect aromas of candied plum, reine-claude plum, oak and red fruits and intense but well-balanced flavours hinting at oak, quince and sour cherries with a spicy finish. 40% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... Rich, comforting caramel and toffee aromas warm the nose. The palate is a bit lighter than the aromas suggest but still rewards with rounded vanilla, cocoa and espresso, fading into nutmeg and mouthwatering lemon peel brightness. 94 points - wineenthusiast.com

Sullivans Cove Double Cask Barrel DC122 Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml)

Hobart, Tasmania, AUSTRALIA
$250. 00
Bottle
$3000.00 Dozen

ABV: 47.8%

Matured in a combination of French oak x-tawny casks and x Bourbon barrels, the port input brings a sultriness to the bouquet, closer to the Double Cask profile we've enjoyed in earlier batches. Lightish in body, with a sweet toasted bread character and hints of baked pear in tow; ovaltine mingles with crystallised pineapple and dried peach through the finish. Affable, soft and 'fruity' - a good introduction to the distillery's most accessible whisky. 1460 bottles at 47.6% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered. Tasted from a 20ml sample.
Other reviews... [Batch 118 tasted] Double Cask is ostensibly Sullivans Cove's most widely available bottling. Still, more expensive single-cask releases are far more common, and because Double Cask is their most affordable product, the handful of batches released every year get snapped up within hours. Double Cask has improved remarkably over the last decade, evolving from a base of average to poor quality casks to a true symphony played by an orchestra of cask types and conducted by production manager Heather Tillott. Batch number 118 is no exception, with Cadbury, apricot muesli bars and rolled oats leaping from the glass, with just a whiff of juicy tawny playing the bass notes. It doesn't translate with such intensity on the palate, and given its price, you might expect more cohesion. It sports a slight burn on the finish—nonetheless, it is a highly complex and enjoyable whisky. 90 points - winecompanion.com

$791.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Distilled from Australian grain using a proprietary process, this Bourbon inspired whisky includes a typical Kentucky mash-bill, sour mash fermented, double distilled and matured in 200 litre American oak barrels. The result is an easy-drinking but tasty sipper crafted for locals. Awarded a Silver Medal at the 2021 Australian Distilled Spirits Awards, the judges said, "Caramel and earthy spice. Quite sweet on the palate, corn flakes and toffee.” 40% Alc./Vol.
Notes from the producers... Aroma: Coconut and vanilla with hints of stone and dry fruit. Moves into the rich grain with hints of chocolate, then dry at the end. Flavour: Sweet oak moving into spicy grains, with a hint of dried fruit. Then mocha and oak, with vanilla and dry coconut. Finish: The finish is spicy and clean heat, smooth but powerful. Long after flavour of sweet oak and dark chocolate.

2022 Nicks Secret APB Shiraz

Frankland River, Western Australia, AUSTRALIA
Reduced from $34.99
$13. 99
Bottle
$167.88 Dozen

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

ABV: 14.5%

Closure: Stelvin

From a Margaret River producer who has sourced fruit from a single vineyard in the Frankland River to make this terrific rich, juicy Shiraz. Maturation took place in a mix of new and older larger format French oak barrels for a period of 12 months.
A rich, juicy Frankland River Shiraz that’s an absolute steal at this Nicks Secret price.
Midnight black heart with a dark red black tinged hue. Nosing evokes aromas of spicy black cherry and liquorice which are interwoven with scorched earth, vanillin cedar and blackpepper. Rich black cherry and liquorice fruits carry a juicy feel across the mid weighted palate. Superb concentration for the price point with subtle scorched earth, vanillin cedar and blackpepper elements ensuing. Ripe, slightly chewy tannins with a long deeply fruited finish.
Drink over the next 4-5 years.
Alc. 14.5%
Other Reviews….
It’s wonderfully complex and enticing on the nose, showing blackberry, vanilla, liquorice, star anise, and spicy oak characters, leading to a deliciously expressed palate offering fleshy texture and velvety tannins. Sumptuous and soothing with a persistent, robust finish. At its best: now to 2035.

Sam Kim – WineOrbit
From a single vineyard in the Frankland River region in Western Australia, the fruit was pressed into a mix of new and older large French oak vessels after a gentle ferment over two weeks. Maturation was for one year. The wine represents fabulous value. It is no secret how good the best Shiraz from Frankland River can be and that makes this great buying. The colour is a dark maroon. The nose reveals notes of black fruits, aniseed, chocolate, coffee beans, graphite and soy. The structure is seamless, dense but dancing, and there is serious length with immaculate balance. The lingering finish exhibits the silkiest of tannins. Enjoy this over the next ten to twelve years. Really impressive. Drink 2025-2037.

Ken Gargett – WinePilot.com
This is a warm-hearted shiraz with saltbush, iron and general herb characters threaded through black cherry, ripe plum and choc-mint. It’s a wine of substance but it’s also a wine of both polish and freshness; the fruit itself has a jellied, boysenberry-like edge and the wine’s texture has a softness. The firmness of the finish here also suggests that this wine can be cellared with confidence.

Glengoyne Sherry Matured 21 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - New Packaging

Highlands, SCOTLAND
$320. 00
Bottle
$3840.00 Dozen

ABV: 43%

Very limited stocks at Nick's import pricing. Elsewhere pay $400+
The very handsomely presented Glengoyne 21YO re-launched around 2020. Since then, allocations from official sources have been erratic, and it's been too expensive to promote - until now. We've managed to secure a small parcel at a sharper direct import price that sherry heads should jump on. Matured exclusively in first-fill Oloroso and Pedro Ximenez European oak casks, give this whisky time to open up and you're onto something quite special. The deep mahogany colour builds your expectations, then the nose lets you down. But what is at first underwhelming richens and deepens over 30 minutes (and beyond), revealing a sherry-saturate; dried peel, walnut slice, new leather, wood shavings and brazil nuts; further time enhances and sweetens the bouquet accenting dried apricot, thick peel marmalade, cigar box and more. Lean and gently bitter sweet on entry, the style here is medium dry with spicy wood tannins and warming, balanced spirit. The sherry input and dried fruits rally, concluding fully, still fresh and satisfying, lingering with hints of rancio, dark chocolate, muscat and crushed walnut in its trail. First impressions don't count for much in this superb example of older malt that demands extended breathing. Find a comfortable chair, sit back and let this whisky teach you the benefits of patience. Natural colour. 43% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews… The nose is at first not overly promising, but it settles as it warms and what follows on the palate is at times glorious. Few whiskies will match this for its bitter sweet depth which is pure text book. Glengoyne as few will have seen it before. 93 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2017
I haven’t tried this expression since 2013. Should be good. Colour: deep gold. Nose: really a classic, extremely well balanced, perhaps a tad conservative but that’s rather an asset in this context. I absolutely adore these notes of stewed peaches and quinces, for example, as well as the Sauternes and the honey. Wonderful and rather the opposite of ‘modern’ whisky. Mouth: extremely good, but too easy to quaff down, really. Lovely caramel and fudge, honey, buttered popcorn, marmalade, maple syrup and just one or two roasted raisins. Finish: medium, perfectly clean, seductive, malty, and cake-y. Who does not like this doesn’t like malt whisky at all. Comments: rather impressed with this little baby. I don’t think all batches are this good, but there, it’s typically moreish! 89 points - whiskyfun.com
...The aroma is well-balanced with plenty of honeyed distillery character shining through, despite the first fill aging, which can sometimes result in an overbearing sherry character. That’s not to say there isn’t plenty of sherry influence here, but it’s exceptionally well-balanced. Enrobing notes of chewy malts and shortbread are deep, fruity complements of candy apple, fig jam, and almond torte. As things open up, a heavily caramelized sugar note, almost toasted, takes hold, giving things even more of a dessert-inspired aroma. The palate is even more impressive with a similarly well-balanced sherry profile of currants, dark berry cobbler, and raw honey. It’s not as nutty as some sherried single malts, with more of a fruity, simple syrup sweetness, very subtly smoked, that carries beautifully and consistently across the palate. The finish is long and warming with a brief flourish of baking spice that erodes into lingering notes of raspberry jam, orange marmalade, and soft oak. A solid value for an older single malt of such impressive quality. - drinkhacker.com

2022 M. Chapoutier Ermitage Le Pavillon

$799. 00

$9588.00 Dozen

ABV: 14%

Closure: Cork

Other Reviews....
The pristine 2022 Ermitage Le Pavillon stands tall next to both the 2021 and 2023 vintages. Vividly displaying ripe black fruit, licorice, pencil shaving, crushed violet notes and a flicker of mocha, the full-bodied and concentrated 2022 shows even more richness on the palate than the Le Méal from the same vintage. Round and generous, this is a Le Pavillon for the hedonists, gracefully winding down with a long and savory finale. Drink 2028-2040.

Nicolas Greinacher - Vinous
Dense and well-composed, this showcases mulberries, plums, roasted meat, dried herbs, leather and stones. Full-bodied with ripe, sinewy tannins. The spicy influence on this warm, dry vintage brings vivacity, intensity and character to a concentrated core of dark berries. This shows solid frame and structure and a lingering, peppery finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink from 2029.

James Suckling
A profound and utterly gorgeous wine, the 2022 Ermitage Le Pavillon reveals notes of ozone, graphite, asphalt, ripe black fruits, and leather. Full-bodied, concentrated, and rich on the palate, it has plenty of ripe tannins and a blockbuster finish. Coming all from the Les Bessards lieu-dit located on the western side of Hermitage, this beauty was 85% destemmed and spent 18 months in a mix of demi-muids and puncheons. It has riveting purity, depth, and length, and certainly tops out my scale. Hide bottles for 7-8 years and enjoy through 2062. Drink 2032-2060

Plum and damson compote, star anise and soy on the nose. This is fresh and lithe, with marked acidity and a great explosion of flavour; bright as a meteor. Not as long as some vintages on the finish, but certainly makes an impression. The pH is at 3.6 naturally through concentration, and nearly 14% alcohol. Remarkably athletic in acid and tannin for a 2022. From lieu-dit Les Bessards. Drink 2030-2050.

2018 Thibaud Boudignon Savennieres Clos de la Hutte

Loire Valley, FRANCE
$199. 00
Bottle
$2388.00 Dozen

ABV: 12%

Closure: Cork

Based in Savennieres, Thibaud Boudignon is one of the new young stars of the Loire Valley. In addition to his prime plots in Savennieres, Thibaud also owns two small vineyards across the river on the south side of the Loire in the Anjou. Thibaud has worked with Philippe Charlopin in Gevrey Chambertin, Chateau Lafite Rothschild in Bordeaux (amongst others) and also in Australia before settling in the Loire, thereby building up a wealth of experience without having been born into a wine producing family. Working organically in the vineyards he harvests by hand making successive tries throughout each vineyard ending with yields that are much lower than the appellation rules allow. In the winery the grapes are whole bunch pressed with no settling and the juice is kept cold before starting a long slow fermentation. He vinifies with natural yeasts and ages the wines on lees with minimal SO2 in a mixture of barrels ranging from 300-600 litres.
Situated in the commune of La Possonnière, the Clos de la Hutte is an ancient religious site of 7 hectares, of which 2.6 are planted with vines. At the heart of this ancient monastery are vines produced from a massal selection of Chenin Blanc coming from the best domaines of the Loire. Vinification occurs in 50% oval demi muid, 25% in 320 liter cigars, and 25% in 500 liter barriques. The ageing lasts one year in wood and a minimum of 3 months in stainless steel.
Other Reviews....
The 2018 Savennières Clos de la Hutte offers an intense, complex and elegant nose that combines mineral depth and purity with the fruit generosity of the vintage. Still from very young vines—just seven years old—on solid schist and vinified in equal parts in 350- and 500-liter barrels (15% new), this is a full-bodied, intense and juicy yet pure, vital, surprisingly fresh and persistently mineral-driven Chenin with fine tannins from La Possonnière. Bottled with a moderate 12% stated alcohol but lots of intensity and structure. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2022. Drink 2024-2038.

This Clos Fremine site adjoins Clos de la Hutte separated only by stone walls surrounding each Clos and a tiny road between and is planted to 1.5ha of vines from massale selection, with the original material coming from vines of more than 100 years old. Sloping towards the Loire the soils have a fine cover of sand blown over the underlying schist across many millenia which conveys a silky elegance to the resulting wine, giving more immediacy and enabling this wine to be appreciated in its youth.
Other Reviews....
Thibaud planted the vineyard only in 2014 and aged his 2018 Savennières Clos de Frémine in 350- and 500-liter barrels (10% new). The result is stunning. The wine opens with a dense and finely yeasty nose with deeper layers of crushed crystalline rocks, perfectly ripe and fleshy Chenin fruit and very discreet hints of mocha and nougat. Generous but playful, refined and elegant on the palate, this is a textural and stimulatingly salty young Savennières with lush fruit and lingering, palate-tickling and stimulating salinity that gives a crisp, pure, almost Riesling-like and bitter finish. It is a remarkably fresh and filigreed but textured Chenin for such a warm vintage. 12.5% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2022. Drink 2022-2032.

This tiny site of 0.5 ha on soils of clay over purple schist and granite lies high above Chateau de Varennes not far from La Roche aux Moines. Thibaud bought and renovated this plot in 2014. This small vineyard is enclosed by trees on all sides so it is a peaceful space where one hears only the birds. "La Vigne Cendrée", in spite of its small surface is an exceptional mosaic of terroir : purple schist, granite and clay silt. Because of the clay and the southern exposition, this wine is naturally richer. Half is aged in 226 litre burgundy barrels and half in foudre, with no new wood, for 12 months.
Other Reviews....
The 2018 Savennières La Vigne Cendrée (cinder or ash vine) comes from three-year-old vines in a small, south-facing vineyard with a complex terroir changing from purple schist to granite to clayey silt. It was vinified naturally in Burgundian barrels and in foudre for 12 months, with no new oak, and bottled with 12% alcohol. The wine opens with intense but also pure, delicate, floral-scented fruit that is absolutely alluring in its slatey fragrancy and spiciness. On the palate, this medium-weight Chenin is pure, clear, fresh, light-footed, remarkably filigreed and finessed but also dense and intense, celebrating delicate and elegant Chenin fruit. What a beautiful drinking pleasure! This is a frisky, vital, energetic, minerally grippy and stimulatingly tensioned, sustainably salty and palate-tickling Savennières in the leaner, fresher, classical style. A pretty fabulous result for such a young vineyard in such a dramatically dry and hot vintage. Natural cork. Tasted in January 2022. Drink 2022-2033.

Janneau 18 Year Old Grand Armagnac (700ml)

Armagnac, FRANCE
$129. 99
Bottle
$1559.88 Dozen

ABV: 43%

Distilled from Ugni Blanc grapes sourced from Ténarèze. The youngest eaux-de-vie in the blend is at least 18 years old.
Other reviews... This baby was integrally double-distilled in one set of stills. It’s 100% ugni blanc. Oh and it’s got a nice age statement instead of some very woolly name. Like Grand Prestige Of The Mousquetaires Du Roy. Whatever… Colour: deep gold. Nose: another category for sure. Lovely tropical fruits (papayas covered with honey and nectars) plus ripe peaches and fresh liquorice, then a little custard, tobacco, and sandalwood. Lovely freshness. Mouth: it’s still got young Armagnac’s grittiness, but that’s totally an asset here. Liquorice, black chocolate, orange blossom water, baklavas, more tinned peaches, and quite curiously, a spoonful of smoked tea. Finish: this is where it loses points, it’s a tad too grassy and drying. Lack a little, shall we say vibrancy? A wee touch of sugar, don’t know where that’s coming from. Comments: not perfect but I think it’s very good, very solid middle-aged Armagnac. And hey, it comes with an age statement (in general, and just like in Scotland, NAS-ers always try to make you believe that their make is older than it actually is). 80 points - whiskyfun.com
Notes from the producers... Colour: Beautiful brown copper reflections. Nose: Aromas of dry fruits with a dominance of walnuts and hazelnuts, balanced by floral aromas. Palate: Frank attack, rich and supple tannins. Persistent flavour of liquorice.

Maxime Trijol Selection XO Cognac (700ml)

Cognac, FRANCE
$99. 99
Bottle
$1199.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

A super buy in XO Cognac with the presentation to match.
A 'sister' bottling to our biggest selling XO cognac, Maxime Trijol's 'XO Selection' is composed of slightly younger eaux de vie, drawing on a higher proportion of Ugni Blanc from the Fins Bois appellation. The value looks to be just as exceptional as their signature XO, with no big brand house coming close to the price being offered here. 40% Alc./Vol.
Notes from the producers... Amber-mahogany dress with golden and coppery highlights. Brilliant colour. The first nose is floral (iris, jasmine) and spicy (hazelnut, vanilla wood). The attack is silky and voluptuous. The aromatic notes are intense and round (floral, fruity marmalade, woody). Very beautiful, noble and well-balanced Cognac.

Since its establishment in 1864, Fee Brothers continue to expand with a product list boasting over 80 drink mix products. The company presently has six different bitters.

$1439.88 Dozen

ABV: 57.1%

Judging by online reviews, this sounds like a grain that tastes like it's peaking early, probably the result of input from the first and second refill casks which makes it taste richer than you'd expect. Says one, "Pleasant dram for sure, and very decent for quite a young grain." 57.1% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.
Other reviews... Nice, consistent whisky. Powerful, but not too much; sweet and red fruits, and some earthy vibes later on. Nose: Full scent, vanilla sweetness and some berries, a whiff of darker red fruits. Taste: Powerful, not too hefty. Red fruits, berries, milk chocolate now, vanilla sweetness. A little earthy touch noticeable later on. Finish: A bit more alcohol noticeable, but still very drinkable. Red fruits again, berries, a bit of earthy touch as well.

An hommage to the great Bob McLean; a blend of 42/42/16% grenache/mourvèdre/shiraz. I miss Bob. Our last conversation before he passed away was conducted while leaning on our utes while filling them with diesel, discussing whether it was wise to buy butter chicken from a service station bain-marie. But I digress. This is a ripper of a wine. Spicy and packed full of graceful, pure plum and dark cherry fruits cut with hints of roasting meats, dried citrus rind, dried wildflowers, orange blossom, ginger cake, rosehip and earth. Powdered granite tannins and snappy, sour acidity with plenty of sustain on the finish. Drink by 2038.

"A nice find in this SV 100 Proof collection." - whiskybase.com
A dedicated blend filler, North British never bottle whisky under their own label, so few would have had the opportunity to taste it on its own. This one's apparently not as extreme as many others in the 100 Proof series and pretty young for a grain, but does its job well - no doubt due to the injection of added flavour from the first and second fill oloroso sherry butts. Some bourbon barrels are also in the mix. 57.1% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Other reviews... Very pleasant, even though this grain whisky is only 15 years old. Cereal-like, fruity, spicy and very well-balanced. Smooth and oily on the palate. A nice find in this SV 100 Proof collection. A nice balance between Bourbon and Sherry. Vanilla and walnut in the finish. - whiskybase.com
...Taste: Some power, but very drinkable. A lot of sweetness and red fruitiness, berries. Later on it gains some power. Finish: Now a little alcohol bitterness comes in, but not too dominating. Sweet, red fruits, medium long finish. - whiskybase.com

A combination of different clones, which were fermented separately with a combination of wild and inoculated yeasts. It’s a generous palate structure, but it is also delivered with a degree of delicacy, heightened by the fine minerality that cuts through to the finish. Light stone fruit with a little cut lime edginess provides balance, while the oak is neatly tuned to create perfect balance. Drink 2025-2033.

Ray Jordan – WinePilot.com
A mixture of clones, barrel fermented and matured in French oak (20% new). A full yet bright green gold. With its bouquet of yellow peach, apricot and orange blossom, this is more open knit than the '23 at the same age. It's flavoursome and harmonious on the palate, too. Finishes with good persistence. Drink by 2028.

ABV: 43%

Yet another offer from Janneau that's likely to incite equal degrees of temptation and anticipation. This time it opens a door to access the kind of well-aged spirits associated with high rollers, cigar aficionados and otherwise certified brandy hedonists. Different from the younger Janneau expressions, the heavier oak input is counterpointed by dense dried fruit characteristics and wrapped up in softer textures, approaching an almost seamless spirit/wood/fruit balance. The youngest element in the blend is 25 years old, with all of the eaux de vie being Ugni Blanc based, sourced from Tenereze.

Nose: Initially very strange, like a freshly opened paint bucket and very alcoholic. Then sweet vanilla, cream candies, fresh coconut and citrus fruits come through. Also a hint of marzipan. Taste: Powerful and creamy on the tongue. This is complemented by caramel, toffee, roasted almonds and plenty of spice.

There’s always a panoply of pick times and ferment constructions employed, with the matrix reminiscent of a forensic investigation, carefully linked by string and drawing pins. The impact, however, is entirely effortless, with a seamless feel and gossamer layering. This is agreeably lightweighted, scented with coal-smoky bunch notes, trilling with red fruits and popping with spices, running though coriander seed, green cardamom, white pepper and fennel seed. Goji berry, redcurrant, rose petal, Earl Grey tea, tart blackberry, tamarind … sweet and sour in the right way. A thoroughly modern Vale shiraz with Rhône echoes. Lovely. Drink by 2032.

The 2021 Love Over Gold Grenache is fine-boned, febrile and pretty, with layers of blood and iodine, plum skin and licorice.

This is not a big expression of Grenache, and some may argue it isn't "big" enough for Grenache—but not me. This remains true to variety with an abundance of graphite tannin and a mineral, cooling finish. The fruit is not overly sweet; it is balanced by an exotic pink peppercorn/pastrami/sumac character. What a wine! A big, mineral YES. Drink 2022-2037.

Light in body but expansive and supple, the palate is layered with delicious red cherry, strawberry and red liquorice fruits. Lying underneath are notions of forest floor, dried herbs, subtle rhubarb and spicy cedar. Energetic feel with polished tannins and a long, fresh red fruited finish that shows plenty of spice.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.

Other Reviews….
From the Lance vineyard, planted to 8300 vines/ha in 1989; a vineyard that produced some of the Yarra's most coveted pinots in the 1980s. A light, very bright crimson red. Fragrant and even more pure fruited than the excellent Applecross pinot off the same vineyard. Aromas of alpine strawberries, redcurrants, bergamot and subtle floral notes precede the palate, which is simultaneously concentrated and light on its feet at the same time. Beautifully delineated and structured on the palate. This seriously good wine will open up and blossom over the next six to eight years at least. Drink by 2036.

Other reviews... Jim’s approach is unique! I had a chance a to discuss with Jim personally and at length how he approaches the whole job of bringing so many whiskies and tastings together, year after year, and I was really astonished to what a degree of meticulousness he goes. There are many great whisky writers and gurus, but Jim’s approach is unique! And as a good author, when you have to describe thousand different whisky expressions every year, you try to make it colourful and diverse, using parallels from life. - Whisky Bible reader.
