    From a few sites, with vines ranging from mature to ancient. This naturally carries the depth of a vintage that was warm and dry, with generally reduced yields. Dark red and black cherries, raspberry compote, summer pudding, some white pepper and dried herbs. It’s fuller in weight, if abidingly fresh in feel, the tannins carefully extracted to meet the concentration, with a savoury skein of natural grip, shaped for food. Drink by 2031.

    Suntory Hibiki 12 Year Old Blended Japanese Whisky (700ml) - Travel Exclusive
    Osaka, JAPAN
    $799. 00
    Bottle
    $9588.00 Dozen
    ABV: 43%

    Note: Product has come from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product not shown.

    ***Travel Exclusive packaging***

    A legendary Japanese blend comprising of more than 20 components, including single malt whiskies from the Yamazaki and Hakushu distilleries and grain whisky from the Chita distillery (an exclusive producer of grain spirit), ranging from 12 to 30 years in age.

    The twelve year old incorporates an otherwise standard oak regime, utilizing a combination of American oak ex-bourbon barrels and European ex-sherry butts, with the additional twist of including American oak previously used to mature Umeshu, a traditional Japanese plum liqueur. Interestingly, these types of casks were originally used for efficiency's sake, however is now an integral part of its trademark flavour profile. After marrying all the components, the final blend ungergoes an exotic filtration through bamboo charcoal.

    Tasting note: Deep brass / gold colour. Gently prickly in the initial inhalations; Second pass finds sweet American oak and vanilla notes nicely balanced with fresher, fruitier notes - think kumquot jam. Third inspection yields deeper scents of dried apricot, fig and fruit'n'nut chocolate. Lively spirit gives backbone to the medium dry, grainy profile; lovely late sugars at the finish with the honeyed cereals and drying oak making for a lipsmacking finale. Rival for any Scotch blend of similar age. This gets more appealing with every sip. 43% Alc./Vol.

    Other Reviews…Pale golden amber color. Exotic aromas of anise, coconut butter cookie, praline, tropical citrus, and delicate peat are very attractive and follow through on a silky entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body with superb depth and complex layers of flavor. Finishes with a very long dried fruit, nut, mineral and spice crescendo. A fantastic blended whisky.

    Whipper Snapper Upshot Single Malt Australian Whiskey (700ml)
    Perth, Western Australia, AUSTRALIA
    $149. 99
    Bottle
    $1799.88 Dozen
    ABV: 48%

    Other reviews... Whipper Snapper’s single malt whisky is far less oak-forward than its other expressions, because it’s been matured for a minimum of four years in refill barrels rather than virgin oak. The cool part here is that, while the lion’s share of single malt whisky produced globally is matured in ex-bourbon casks from the US, this one is matured in Whipper Snapper’s own ex-whisky casks. After all, it makes its own bourbon-style whiskies, so why bother getting its casks from anywhere else? The result is a whisky with lovely floral and citrus notes on the nose, light and pretty but still with plenty of nutty grain and oak to give it power. As with much of Whipper Snapper’s spirits, the careful distillation and cask selection is evident in the cleanliness and integration on display. A nicely textured palate and light finish make this an easy-drinking and approachable Australian single malt whisky. 92 points - Fred Siggins, winecompanion.com.au

    2002 Douglas Laing & Co. Old Particular Single Cask Girvan 20 Year Old Single Grain Scotch Whisky (700ml) – 51.5%
    Lowlands, SCOTLAND
    $139. 99
    Bottle
    $1679.88 Dozen
    ABV: 51.5%

    Built to secure a reliable supply of grain whisky for William Grant & Sons blends, when it opened in 1963, Girvan was the largest grain distillery in the world. It remains one of the most important sites in the William Grant portfolio. Like other grain producers, compared to single malt distilleries, Girvan flys under the radar. It's usually bottled by independents, and even then rarely. However in 2013, Grants took the unusual step of marketing Girvan under its own label. The price for the official 25 year old is now around $500 (and it's only 42% ABV). Enter Douglas Laing. As part of the Old Particular single cask range, we're able to offer two double-decaders at direct import prices. This edition from cask DL16964 consists of 282 bottles charged from single refill hogshead. Besides the impressive price/age ratio, the fact that these are high strength and non-chill filtered means you get even more bang for your buck! 51.5% Alc./Vol.

    Notes from the bottlers... Nose: Round, rich and initially full of syrup, ahead of a truly sweet cereal based character. Palate: Catch candy floss, white and Demerara sugars, with a later strong vanilla toffee flavour. Finish: Barley sugar flavours apparent, beyond which gristy cereals and spices appear.

    Mery Melrose The Old Alliance Tourbe (Peated) Single Malt French Whisky (700ml)
    FRANCE
    $129. 99
    Bottle
    $1559.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    Led by François Méry, a fourth-generation viticulturist, Maison Méry-Melrose is an independent organic vineyard, distillery and winery in the heart of the Grande Champagne region of Cognac. 'Tourbe' (meaning 'peat' in French) is the smokey counterpart to the distillery's Old Alliance Classic single malt. After distillation the whisky spends five years in casks that previously contained Islay's legendary Laphroaig. That follows with a secondary maturation in 10-year-old Pineau des Charentes casks. The result is a very gently peated expression with deliciously chewy, chocolatey malt depths and a mere hint of the coast, the rich fruity roundness of the Pineau carrying the finish. 46% Alc./Vol. 1000 bottles produced.

    2002 Douglas Laing & Co. Old Particular Single Cask Girvan 20 Year Old Cask Strength Single Grain Scotch Whisky (700ml) – 62.2%
    Lowlands, SCOTLAND
    $149. 99
    Bottle
    $1799.88 Dozen
    ABV: 62.2%

    This is the second of two super-value 20 year old Girvans that form part of a direct import shipment. Both were distilled in 2002 and drawn from hogsheads. The ABV on this bottling (cask DL15984) is considerably higher than most grains of this age. However, the outturn was almost 100 bottles less (190 compared to 282). With their gifts differing, the two bottlings promise an interesting side-by-side tasting. 62.2% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Notes from the bottlers... Nose: Opens cleanly with a suggestion of pineapple - certainly fruity with crushed sugars. Palate: Vanilla is immediately obvious plus caramel, melted chocolate and tingling spices. Finish: Those spices are now distinct and warming, with later buttercream and toffee.

    Whipper Snapper Upshot Rye Australian Whiskey (700ml)
    Perth, Western Australia, AUSTRALIA
    $149. 99
    Bottle
    $1799.88 Dozen
    ABV: 48%

    Other reviews... I’m a massive rye whisky fan, and a big supporter of this style in the Australian context. This single-barrel expression is produced from a mash of 85% rye and 15% malted barley, the rye grains sourced from the the Fuchsbichler family farm in Bruce Rock, WA, who have been growing an heirloom German rye strain there for over a century. The result is a whisky bursting with the fresh aroma of freshly cut apples dusted with cinnamon, pumpernickel spice and new oak all working in harmony, while missing the dill pickle notes that turn some people off American ryes. At 48%, the alcohol is very well controlled and the cask choice is spot on, with a sweet mid-palate and lingering carrot-cake spices through the finish. A fun and fresh rye that’s a great expression of the grain’s natural quality. 95 points - Fred Siggins, winecompanion.com

    Whipper Snapper Upshot Cask Strength Australian Whiskey (700ml)
    Perth, Western Australia, AUSTRALIA
    $159. 99
    Bottle
    $1919.88 Dozen
    ABV: 63%

    Other reviews... The cask-strength edition of Whipper Snapper’s Upshot bourbon-style whisky sits at a hefty 63% abv – a solid deal for the price considering how much we pay in tax on alcohol percentage in Australia. Big, musty oak notes dominate the nose with less of the fresh, nutty wood of the other Upshots. This whisky is still matured in virgin American oak casks, but is entered into the cask at a much higher alcohol strength than its less potent siblings, resulting in more extraction and less balance between oak and grain with the wood somewhat domineering. The palate provides some balancing sweetness in the form of cherry cola, and the finish has plenty of warmth without being at all over the top for this strength. A few drops of water bring out some plum pudding and burnt sugar on the nose while also improving the texture on the palate. Definitely one for the oak lovers. 89 points - Fred Siggins, winecompanion.com.au

    A certified-organic cognac, aged between 7 to 10 years, sourced from the region's premier cru.

Well-rounded fig and fruit cake flavours, followed by hints of orange curacao, cedar cigar box and cinnamon extending the finish. A light-to-medium-bodied Cognac that's smooth, broad appeal and eminently drinkable. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... An excellent buy for me! I gave it some 30 minutes before the first sip. Very good impression on the nose, spices, fruit and (for me) just a hint of candied fruit with some caramel. The spices and flowery notes are neatly blended into the flavour together with the alcohol. It had a balanced tasted and leaves a good after taste with its finish. Goes down smoothly, even in bigger sips. Overall, a great buy and value for money. - cognac-expert.com

    From arguably the Pyrenees most iconic producer, this beautifully aged Shiraz is a serious value at less than half it’s normal price. Established in 1973, it sits at highest elevation and is the most remote of the Pyrenees district vineyards. Maturation took place in French oak barriques for a period of 20 months.

    An iconic back vintage Pyrenees Shiraz at less than half price!

    Magnificent depth of colour featuring a dense inky black core and a very deep dark red black tinged hue. Wafting through the nostrils are intense aromatics of blackberry, liquorice and dark plum which are trailed by some vanillin cedar, scorched earth, dried herb and peppered fennel notes. Plush and concentrated, rich blackberry, dark plum and liquorice fruits are still remarkably fresh and pure in spite of it’s bottle age. Lurking beneath are notions of spicy vanillin cedar, dried herbs, scorched earth, subtle fennel and blackpepper. Polished yet underlyingly muscular tannins and vibrant acidity provide great structure for further cellaring. Finishes long and moreish.

    An assemblage of the best blocks from the ****** original vineyard. Hand picked, vinified separately with some batches having 25% whole bunches included in ferment. Matured 20 months in French oak (30% new), followed by barrel selection and blending. Strikes a generous pose and colour. There's some pretty smart and attractive oak that is a big part of this wine's appeal. It contributes added gravitas, with wide-ranging influences from prominent spice to a toasty, smoky, mocha overlay. The ripe blackberry, plum, aniseed fruit loves it. Mouth-coating and long. Drink by 2030.

    From a producer renown for their blockbuster Barossa reds, this richly flavoured Shiraz has been made in an Amarone style whereby the grapes are rack dried to concentrate the fruit. The resulting wine was then matured in French oak for a period of 18 months. At over 50% off it delivers great value for those who like their Shiraz on the bigger side of town.

    Rich, dense and concentrated with an opulent yet chewy mouth feel and power packed finish.

    Magnificent colour density featuring a super saturated inky black heart along with an equally deep dark purple black hue. Peppery black cherry, black plum and liquorice scents infiltrate the olfactory senses followed by some fennel, scorched earth and spicy vanillin cedar notes. Rich, dense and concentrated, the full bodied palate is engulfed with lavish black cherry, liquorice and dark to black plum fruits. Opulent mouth feel with chewy, robust tannins providing structure. Spicy vanillin cedar, subtle scorched earth and peppered fennel characters extend across the back half. Power packed it finishes with great density, length and succulence.

    A strikingly modern Barossa Shiraz that bursts from the glass with freshness, clarity and energy. Blueberry and dark berry fruits lead the way, vibrant and pure, before subtle notes of espresso bean, spice and crushed mineral detail add depth and sophistication.
    The palate is bright, juicy and mouth-wateringly delicious, with beautifully handled fruit intensity balanced by a lively lift and fine savoury edge. There is a polished contemporary feel here, but still plenty of Barossa generosity, carried by excellent freshness and a long, moreish finish. A superb Shiraz with real style and precision.

    Mont-Redon is one of Chateauneuf-du-Pape’s largest estate’s with almost 100 hectares under vine and has one of the longest histories in the entire Rhône Valley. The estate has passed through many families over the centuries, but it’s modern history really started in 1923 with the then manager, Henri Plantin. Henri was a colleague and contemporary of Baron Pierre Le Roy de Boiseaumarié, the man credited with spearheading the creation of France’s entire AOC system in 1936. It was Henri’s drive and vision that established the estate as one of the ‘Grand Crus’ in Chateauneuf du Pape. Since 2017 Mont-Redon has been managed by Pierre Fabre, Henri’s great-great-grandson who has brought with him a renewed enthusiasm for producing the very finest wines.
    Mont-Redon also produce a great value Cotes du Rhone. The 2023 vintage is a blend 50% Syrah and 41% Grenache with the remaining 9% comprised of Marselan, Mourvèdre & Carignan. Destemmed and fermented in stainless steel with about two weeks on skins and gentle pump-overs to promote a fine tannin structure, it then sees a further 8 months maturation in tank.

    Awash with juicy black fruits this is a dense, concentrated and chewy Cotes du Rhone that delivers fabulous value.

    Pitch black heart with a dark red black tinged hue. Pronounced black cherry and liquorice scents intermingle with some black raspberry, scorched earth, herbs du Provence and peppered dried meat notes. Rich, concentrated and chewy, the weighty palate is flush with juicy black raspberry, black cherry and liquorice fruits. Infusions of herbs du Provence, scorched earth and blackpepper also chime in. Dense sinewy tannins with the amply powered finish laden with succulent black fruit and peppered earth characters.

    Matured in French oak puncheons for a period of 10 months. Semi translucent ruby red in colour with black toned edges and a light red hue. Wonderfully fragrant nose with a bouquet of violet, red to dark cherry and wild strawberry trailed by hints of anise, rhubarb, forest floor and spicy cedar.

    Matured in 500L French puncheons (13% new). Fruit from Yering, Coldstream and Gruyere. A light, bright crimson. A pretty wine with its bouquet of strawberry, raspberry, floral notes and cinnamon spice. There's good persistence, too, on the gently mouth-filling palate with supple, fine-grained tannins rounding out a wine to drink now and over the next four to six years. Drink by 2031.

    Philip Rich - James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion

    Sumac and strawberries, paprika and lingonberries. Red fruit is taut and crunches with bursting acidity. A small portion of new oak adds some floral spice, potpourri and rose spray. Some Jarrah wood, cedar and red clay earth tones add further dimension. I find it so hard to fault the Yering Station line for its fruit purity, presence and price point. All is considered and makes for a harmonious drink, now and in the near future. This will show well in another 3-6 years further. Drink with simmered slices of thin pork in a cabbage and mushroom stew. Drink 2026-2032.

    Ben Jeanneret calls this curiously named wine 'Rank & File'. It's what Shiraz represents to him - the heart and soul of the Australian wine industry. Sourced from some of the best low yielding, old vine vineyards in Clare, the fruit for this wine was matured in a mixture of French and American oak for a period of 17-23 months. Year in year out this is one of our best selling Shiraz, the powerful rich black fruits and opulent feel make it irresistible drinking.

    Not for the faint of heart, this is a high octane, super dense Clare Shiraz.

    Ultra dense inky black heart with an equally deep black dark red hue. Potent dark plum, liquorice and black cherry liqueur scents soar out of the glass followed by toasty vanillin oak, subtle earthy mocha and peppered fennel notes. Monumentally sized, extravagantly rich and densely concentrated the palate is overwhelmed by a tsunami of black cherry liqueur, liquorice and black plum fruits. Smoky vanillin oak, scorched earth and blackpepper extend across the back half. Undeniably powerful and thick it has a sturdy tannin structure and long flamboyant, high octane finish.

    $149. 99
    Bottle
    $1799.88 Dozen
    ABV: 57.7%

    "Kilkerran always delivers a superb bang for buck and one of the most solid distillates out there." - whiskybase.com

    Now seen as the value for money alternative to Springbank, Kilkerran 8YO has quickly gained a reputation as a punchy, elemental Campbeltown bomb. Previous batches included full maturations in Bourbon, Port and Sherry. Batch No.12 comes 100% matured in Bourbon barrels, resulting in a creamier mouthfeel with hints of tropical fruit and low to medium peat. A few drops of water are recommended, while some tasters note that the rough edges common to young Kilkerrans blow off after the bottle has been opened for a few weeks. No details on the numbers released, but as usual, stocks are allocated in Australia. 57.7% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Other reviews... A top-class whisky that will certainly be among the highlights of this year's ex-bourbon cask maturation. In my opinion, a few drops of water are very good for the whisky right from the start....This Kilkerran is also a very successful single malt in the mouth, even if the taste cannot keep up with the brutally strong nose. The dominant flavors for me are pear and banana. With a little more water, the papaya flavor also reappears. Additionally, there's a hard-to-describe aroma that I associate with Kilkerran. Furthermore, the alcohol becomes somewhat more noticeable again, even with just a few drops of water. A few more drops, however, make it disappear, creating space for the sweet flavors. - whiskybase.com

    Notes from the producers... Nose: Notes of butterscotch and custard creams lead, with apple butter and white miso. Cream sponge and poached pear sweetness follows. Palate: There is a creaminess on the palate in notes of shortbread crust and smooth caramel chocolate, with notes of gooseberries, white grapes, cigar box smoke and sandalwood developing. Finish: Hints of green peppercorn and honeydew melon emerge in the finish, alongside an ashy note.

    Other reviews... you can't go wrong with a 15-year-old Speyside with a Marsala finish... Marsala wine! Definitely noticeable right away. Now the oak comes through with its spiciness. At first, the "mere" 46% alcohol seems a bit watery, but this improves with the second and third sips. Fruit notes remain subdued. Cherries? Perhaps with a lot of imagination.

    ABV: 50.2%

    Billy Walker selected just four exceptional cask types from an enviable inventory to be bottled as a 35-year-old Cask Strength: Mizunara virgin oak, American virgin oak, Oloroso Sherry, and Pedro Ximénez Sherry. The former has become well known as a prized Japanese wood sourced from 200-year-old trees. Bottled at 50.2% ABV, the packaging draws inspiration from Kumiko, the traditional Japanese carpentry art of creating intricate patterns from wood without the use of nails. The sides of the box depict the top of the distillery and four different patterns, each representing the type of cask that shaped the whisky inside. Harmonising Mizunara with three iconic and time-honoured cask types creates a symphony of flavours, balancing warm spice, luscious dried fruit, creamy vanilla, and rich molasses into a refined and full-bodied expression. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Natural cask strength here, naturally (S.!) Careful, this baby will have seen four types of casks, virgin mizunara oak, American virgin oak, oloroso sherry and Pedro Ximénez sherry. Which does not necessarily make it a woodsky, let us not leap to hasty conclusions, please, even if there must inevitably have been some finishings and plenty of woodspiel… The truth resides in the glass, I remind you. Colour: mahogany. Nose: walnut husk, toffee, fir bud liqueur and very old Jerez brandy. All of that works like a Rolex just back from a service at an authorised watchmaker. With water: fresher, almost fruity, more on very ripe figs and dates stuffed with marzipan. Murderously good. Mouth (neat): but of course it is excellent. Old Ténarèze married to that very old Jerez brandy we had just mentioned, prunes, pipe tobacco, tamarind jam, and a woodiness that is present but elegant, in the style of very black ex-samovar tea. With water: in come the old fortified wines, Banyuls, Madeiras, Ports, Marsalas, Malagas and many more besides. The very black teas and the cocoa in the background remind us of the rather massive presence of the wood, but all in full elegance. Finish: it carries on with very dark chocolate filled with liqueur. Even Jägermeister. Comments: very fine balancing act, insofar as I may modestly judge such things. 90 points - whiskyfun.com

     ...The aroma is very deep – dried fruit, especially dried orange peel, yeast cake with orange, spices, exotic woods, chocolate with dried cherry, light tobacco, leather, and walnuts. On the palate, sweetness and tartness, anise, licorice, astringent leather, tobacco, and notes of strong tannins reminiscent of an old Armagnac. The finish is tannic and salty, with notes of umami, lovage, and sweet dried fruit, especially dried apricot and quince. A rather sharp tobacco note, leather, and plenty of licorice. This is a very complex whisky. - whiskybase.com

    Notes from the producers... Nose: Mocha, crystalised cinnamon and treacle tart, followed by cocoa, toasted hazelnuts and pineapple, with soft notes of ginger and heather honey. Taste: Cocoa, baking spices and chocolate-coated raisins, followed by coconut, brandied orchard fruits and sandalwood, with vanilla, dried red fruits and honeycomb.

    From a small but highly regarded McLaren Vale estate, this is the 31st release of this wine which was first made in 1984. Sourced from a single vineyard planted in 1910, these 100 plus year old vines have delivered a rich, full bodied style of Shiraz that has a robust yet opulent feel. Maturation took place in a combination of French and American oak barrels for a period of 24 months.

    Rich, bold and lavishly proportioned, this is a rare opportunity to get your hands on a superb Mclaren Vale Shiraz produced from 100+ year old vines for just $20.

    Dense inky black heart with a very deep dark red black tinged hue. Ripe blackberry, liquorice and dark chocolate aromas engulf the nostrils followed by complimenting notes of spicy vanillin oak, earthy fennel and pepper. Rich, bold and lavishly proportioned, the full bodied palate is swamped with blackberry, liquorice, vanillin oak and fennel flavours. Earthy dark chocolate and spice elements linger underneath. Robust yet opulent in its feel with a firmly built tannin structure and fresh acidity supporting the sumptuous fruit. Concentrated, deep and powerful it finishes long and luxurious yet sturdy.
    Drink over the next 6-8 years.

    Archie Rose Triple Smoked Single Malt Australian Whisky (700ml)
    Sydney, New South Wales, AUSTRALIA
    $129. 99
    Bottle
    $1559.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    This will be one of the more interesting Australian Whisky releases for 2026. After lengthy experimentation, Archie Rose have created a 'peated' style. Rather than following the well worn path of traditional Scotch where smoke only touches the grain, this whisky has native Stringybark wood-smoke infused into the barley, the cask and the water. The production process makes for a strong point of difference to previous Aussie distillers who've experimented with native woods for aging. Instead of exploring oak alternatives, a little ingenuity has resulted in an evocative Australian smoked character unlike anything else in the world.

    With some wonderfully sweet grain and rich oak notes at its core, Stringybark smoke ramps up the complexity, not only contributing a dry, cured meat and chimney soot character, but also bringing an added layer of freshness that hints at baked citrus, faint menthol and herbal teas. The palate repeats those notes in a slightly sweeter, more definitively smoked way, with a lingering dry, ashy quality, followed by smoked dark chocolate, more cured meats, warming peppers and a mezcal-like aftertaste. Comparisons with Highland peaters such as Ardmore and Inchmoan are hard to resist, but this beats its own drum - and may well be a world first. 46% Alc./Vol.

    Notes from the producers... Nose: Opens with notes of artisan smoked bacon, campfire, golden syrup-drizzled damper, roasted macadamia and barbeque charred lemon. Another pass reveals royal icing, tinned pineapple and hibiscus. There is a distinctive nuttiness present which is balanced by smoke and the suggestion of salinity. Palate: The palate is well structured with a honeyed sweetness and baked citrus flavours that make wait for a smokiness that builds in intensity towards the expansive finish. The dry, wood scented smoke is laced with jasmine and geranium, as well as salt and cured meats. Finish: The lingering flavour of charred wood is present. A uniquely Australian whisky for lovers of smoke and flavour explorers.

Finished in white port casks from Portugal’s Douro Valley, it carries waves of orchard fruit, peach, and apricot against bright notes of candied citrus, before easing into smooth layers of honeyed almonds, toasted malt, and gentle spice. Limited to 7,571 bottles globally. 51.6% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Other reviews... "I believe this year's release from The Westering Home Collection will be a hit in the whisky market. It's a superb whisky with plenty of dark fruit, thick caramel syrup, a pleasant hint of salt, and a delicate smoky haze. It's very smooth to sip, pleasantly warming, and the alcohol is perfectly hidden. For me, it's worth the price." - whiskybase.com

    "Neat, the 51.6% ABV holds its shape well. It’s warm but not aggressive, and the White Port influence comes through clearly. With water, the whisky opens up considerably: the floral and fruit elements become more expressive, the maritime quality recedes slightly, and you’re left with something almost delicate at its core. Both approaches work. This is the kind of dram that rewards attention and patience." - The Daily Whisky

    Named for the natural springs supplying Royal Brackla, this whisky spent over five years in ex-bourbon wood followed by nearly three years in ex-Oloroso sherry casks.

    Notes from the producers... Nose: An autumnal day in a glass. Dry leaves, orchard fruits, wood smoke – dry logs on the crackling open fire. Some creamy notes in the background and heavy toasted bread. Palate: Sweet peat, soft vanilla cream, sugared pancake with burnt edges. Baking apples with the hint of malt and a touch of peppery spice and clove. Finish: Warming soft peat that lingers in the mouth with a barley sweetness.

    A single malt made from organic barley malted and kilned by La Malterie de l'Ouest, then distilled in a Charentais alembic traditionally used for cognac. Five years in oak was followed by a secondary maturation in the estate's own 10-year-old Pineau des Charentes casks. Mouth-filling, textural and beautifully rounded flavours conjure oatmeal biscuits and honey-drizzled bircher muesli, extended by a splash of sweet dried fruits and chocolate (no doubt from the finishing casks). Re-tasted after five minutes' air contact, it leaves the impression of a buxom young cognac. The name references the Auld Alliance, the 1295 treaty between France and Scotland, a nod to the estate's dual French-Scottish heritage. 46% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered. 30ml sample.

    Bottle
    $2159.88 Dozen
    ABV: 54.3%

    Macduff, a seaside distillery on the Moray Firth, produces a nutty, subtly sulphury spirit shaped by its distinctive stills. Three years finishing in a Bajan rum cask from the West Indies Rum Distillery results in a single cask that's approachable and lively, with a touch of maritime charm. Supple, rounded and well balanced at natural strength, though some heat and spice assert at the finish alongside a tart berry character. It is relatively simple for a whisky of this age, however the overall effect is pleasing. The emphasis remains on cereals and malt, becoming fruitier and a little tropical with water. 189 bottles produced. 54.3% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Notes from the producers... Nose: Sweet syrup, ripe mango and caramelised coconut. Palate: Juicy red berries, raspberry marzipan and gentle spice. Finish: Lingering sweet fruitiness with a bright, candied lift.

    2025 Giant Steps Pinot Noir

    Bottle
    $419.88 Dozen
    Cellar: Drink now - 6 Years (2026-2032)

    Closure: Stelvin

    Sourced from vineyards across the Yarra Valley, 50% from the upper Yarra ranges, this entry level Pinot from Giant Steps was fermented with 32% whole bunch inclusion and matured in French oak (16% new) for a period of 8 months.

    Rich, supple and expansive, this is an uber moreish Yarra Valley Pinot.

    Dark red core with black toned edges and a vibrant red hue. Fragrant scents of violet, strawberry, red plum and cherry engulf the nostrils with complimenting notes of fresh herbs, subtle forest floor, bramble and spice ensuing. Rich, supple and expansive, the uber moreish palate is layered with dark cherry, strawberry and anise flavours. Notions of dried herbs, forest floor and spicy cedar the undercard. Intensely flavoured and powerful, it has silky smooth tannins and a long, sweeping finish.
    Drink over the next 5-6 years.

    An opulent crimson purple. Explodes from the glass with its aromas of ripe cherries, raspberry coulis, lavender and spice. It's just so brightly fruited and juicy on the palate, too. Balanced acidity and tannins complete a superb and well-priced Yarra pinot to drink now and over the next three to four years. As good a Giant Steps entry point as I have tasted. Drink by 2030.

    Closure: Cork

    Made by James Halliday’s 2024 Winemaker of the Year from the outstanding 2021 vintage, this classic Australian blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon is an absolute no brainer at $70 off it’s normal price.

    A generously layered and well fleshed blend that marries depth and power with classic Coonawarra refinement.

    Dense pitch black heart with a very deep dark red black hue. Elevated aromas of blackberry, blackcurrant and choc mint mingle with whiffs of liquorice, vanillin cedar, earth and subtle spicy mocha. Mid weighted, the palate is generously layered with rich blackberry, liquorice and blackcurrant fruits which carry a well fleshed, almost plush like feel. Spicy vanillin cedar, choc mint and delicate earthy mocha elements line the back half. Slightly dusty, fine grained tannins provide excellent structure. Showing impressive depth and power, it possesses classic Coonawarra refinement with a long, polished finish.
    Drink over the next 5-6 years.

    62/38% shiraz/cabernet. Fermented wild before spending 18 months in French oak, 40% new. Olives, herbs, blackcurrant and cedar. The flavours are one thing but it's the flow, the command, ands the authoritative push of the finish. This is top-shelf gear. Bacon-esque oak adds a final flourish to a beautifully pitched (and structured) red wine. Drink by 2044.

    Glenfiddich Grand Yozakura 29 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $2499. 00
    Bottle
    $29988.00 Dozen
    ABV: 45.1%

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

    One of the more recent releases from Glenfiddich's Grand series, the Yozakura is a mature 'Fiddich, which was then finished for 6 months in ex-Awamori rice spirit casks from Okinawa. Reportedly the first Scottish single malt to undergo such a process. Not only that, but there is far less Awamori matured in oak than in the traditional storage medium of claypots. Awamori is a rice spirit distilled from long-grain rice specifically in Okinawa. The Koji (think rice 'starter') is also locally sourced. A method and recipe borderline unchanged for over 500 years. Awamori has a similar flavour profile to Sake but with a much fuller and more intense character, from being a spirit as opposed to a brewed beverage, as well as a savoury component. As such, there is a more recognisable impact on whisky aged in ex-Awamori oak as opposed to Sake or Mizunara finish. This is definitely a whisky release for the history books and a collector's opportunity not to be missed, with only 1500 bottles produced. Very rare. 45.1% Alc./Vol.

    A crisp, savoury Rose with a gently tangy finish.

    Made from Gaglioppo grapes. Salmon orange in colour. Spicy citrus, peach and blood orange aromas drift from the glass followed by some wet slate notes.
