Milhoc Premiere Flamme Single Grain French Whisky (700ml)Armagnac, FRANCE$159. 99Bottle$1919.88 DozenABV: 50%Milhòc means “corn”, an appropriate title for Denis Lesgourgue's new spirits project which sees corn instead of malted barley as the main ingredient. The reasons are several. Legourgues’s family is from Gascony where they're well respected as Armagnac producers under the Château de Laubade label. However, the south west is also the country's major region for corn (mainly used in animal feed and for industrial purposes). Both are part of his family heritage, now channeled into whisky making.
Kicking off in early 2020, 45 acres of Château de Laubade’s estate are now dedicated to corn. Barley is out-sourced. “We decided to convert some of our vineyards into corn parcels,” says Lesgourgues. “When you walk the estate, you can see the two cultures side by side.” The whisky is distilled in Laubade’s column still via the same single distillation method used in traditional Armagnac-making. There are two expressions: Milhòc Le Premier-Né (First Born), and the higher-proof Milhòc Première Flamme (First Flame). Both whiskies are aged 4 to 5 years in Laubade's cellars, in new oak, x-bourbon, and x-Armagnac casks (think sweet and soft American oak, counterpointed against spicy Gascony oak).
Though classified as a 'single grain', Premiere Flamme comes with a mash bill of 54% corn and 46% malted barley. The nose opens citric and dry building mildly sweet, bready aromas, followed by a soft entry and a grassy, crisp, vibrant delivery with hints of tea biscuits and vanilla wafers. Oily and rounded at mid palate, spritely pepper and fine tannins punctuate the gently sweet finish. Bottled at 50% with zero chill filtration.
Other reviews... On the nose, there’s baked apples, white grape juice, and cherry cola, with a whisper of dark rye bread. The fruits are more muted on the palate, where raisins, chocolate-dipped strawberries, and funnel cake take the lead. The finish is long, with fruit tart and chocolate-covered espresso beans. 92 points - whiskyadvocate.com

Laphroaig Oak Select Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml) - Gift Pack with GlassIslay, SCOTLAND$84. 99Bottle$1019.88 DozenABV: 40%Comes with a bonus branded tasting glass.
Considered "the easy-going one" in the Laphroaig line-up, the repackaged Oak Select is created from selected casks from each of the distillery's key styles (Quarter Cask, PX, Triple Wood, and 10 year old) with one exception - the heart of the spirit is reportedly sourced from a final maturation in virgin American oak. Seasoned whisky drinkers will be aware that new wood is rarely used in Scotch Whisky maturation. Instead, almost all whisky is put into casks that have previously held other beverages, usually Bourbon or Sherry. New wood tends to stamp its inherent flavours into the whisky in a definitive way. Can we expect this to be a battle between peat reek and coconut?
Other reviews... Missed by a trick by not being unfiltered and 46% 89 points - Jim Murrays Whisky Bible 2018
...The nose is reminiscent of freshly-treated decking, before some classic iodine creeps in. Water brings out geranium, pollen, and damp leather. The palate is simple, clean, and mild (and smoky), with bay leaf, light dried fruit, and that oily wood. Undoubtedly there's a lot going on, but it’s not married, and 40% means it lacks the necessary wallop.

A blend of mostly pinot gris with a larger balance of pinot bianco and a smaller one of pinot nero (noir). It's a textural feast, slippery and grippy through the finish. Quite a bit of talc and ginger, some peachy notes, lots of nashi pear. It feels great to drink, super easygoing, but with some more interest from the varied varieties playing well. Good, chirpy white is the result. Drink by 2027.

2023 John Duval Entity ShirazBarossa, South Australia, AUSTRALIA$46. 99Bottle$563.88 DozenCellar: Drink now - 8 Years (2026-2034)ABV: 14.5%Closure: StelvinA plush, yet quite refined Barossa Shiraz.
With nearly 30 years spent making Penfolds Grange and developing the RWT label at Penfolds, John Duval qualifies as one of Australia's living wine legends. In 2003 he launched John Duval Wines and wasted no time sourcing some of South Australia's finest fruit. “After 35 years in the business, I know who the best growers are,” comments Duval. Today, John is joined by his son Tim who assists with both winemaking and marketing.
Fruit was sourced from old vineyards in the Krondorf, Tanunda, Marananga, Ebenezer, Moppa and Eden Valley districts, the final blend being made from 65% Barossa Valley and 35% Eden Valley fruit. Maturation took place in French oak (25% new) for a period of 15 months.
Impenetrable midnight black core with a dark red black tinged hue. Dark plum, liquorice and blackberry scents waft through the olfactory senses followed by some blueberry, spicy vanillin cedar, subtle dark chocolate, fennel and peppered earth notes. Rich, plush and quite refined in its flow across the palate, dark plum, liquorice and ripe blueberry fruits meld into a spicy vanillin cedar, fennel and peppered earth back drop. Fine grained tannins with good underlying freshness to the elegant finish that shows good length.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.

A wonderfully pure-smelling shiraz from John Duval from grapes sourced across a number of Barossan subregions – Krondorf, Marananga, Ebenezer, Moppa and Eden Valley. There is a real plushness to the fruit here; all juicy doris plum, blueberry and boysenberry with hints of licorice, violets, roasting meats, citrus blossom and earth. The silty tannins drift way back in the fruit this year and the finish is long and graceful, with the real spotlight on that fruit purity. Drink by 2040.

The level of bang for buck here is ludicrous. One of Australia's more complex, exciting textural white wines lays in the glass. Catch it in its youth for the crystalline texture, the sea spray, green almond, Pink Lady apple juice characters, citrus blossom lift, cool, slate-like mineral finish and rush of slippery texture that feels glassy as it does gently sticky. An impressive wine of detail in fruit, florals, minerality and yet one that holds attention for high-end drinkability, too. Drink by 2032.

Mike Bennie - James Halliday’s Australian Wine CompanionIt’s probably a long running joke how much I dislike Chenin Blanc, aside from that time, quite recently in fact, I was served a bottle of Thibaud Boudignon Anjou 2023, blind, and loved it and thought it might be a frisky Chardonnay. Aside that, still usually a high barf level for me. That being said, Corymbia make a good fist of it. I drink a fair bit of pandan leaf tea, also bancha twig tea (Kukicha) and Proper Strong Yorkshire Tea. I’m a tea man over coffee. Proper wine people, I think, are tea people. You can’t really trust coffee people. Also, mainly, they come from Melbourne.
Green pear, apple, a smoky almond thing, a bit saline, also some chamomile and green tea perfume. It’s crisp, has excellent texture, a quiet pear skin and almond grip, some Parmesan rind savoury stuff, with a bright, nutty and juicy finish of very good length offering a powdery grip to close. Very good. Also, quite refreshing. I think maybe the best release of this wine to date?

Gary Walsh – The Wine FrontThe 2025 Chenin Blanc is waxy and textural, lithe and fresh. Like so many Chenin Blancs, it is certain not to show its dimensional complexity for several years yet, though drinking it so early in its life gives us a great indication as to the direction it will take in the future. So, aromatically, the wine leads with brine and white flowers, cheesecloth, green apple and cold tea. On the palate, the wine's production rises to the fore. Extended time on the lees and the inclusion of old/neutral French oak enhance the structure and texture of the wine, both of which remain steadfastly invisible, which is a wonderful thing. The 2025 season was warm and dry but saw none of the prolonged heat that was present in the previous 2024 season. As a result, the 2025 wines have been exceptional, particularly those that come from healthy vineyards—as this has—that were able to use the winter of 2024 for reprieve and much needed rest. 12.8% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2026-2040.
The dry-grown, organic certified Corymbia vineyard—Rocket's vineyard—is situated in Upper Swan, with a dramatic view of the Darling Scarp beyond. The vineyard was planted by Rob Mann and his father, Tony Mann (a.k.a. Rocket), in 1992 on Houghton loam soils. The Chenin Blanc vines are a massal selection called the Eric Noack selection, planted at a density of 1,540 vines per hectare. The wine has 12.8% alcohol, a pH of 3.33 and 6.3 grams per liter of total acidity.

100% nebbiolo from the east-facing Kersbook vineyard. It boasts a magnificent watermelon hue, the intensity not by chance. The grapes underwent an 18-hour soak to yield this level of extraction. It smells of Royal Gala apples and grilled yellow peaches. Some fleshy apricot, rose and dried herbs, thyme and bay. Magnificent texture here, the result of a providential decision made by winemaker Matt Large to leave the juice on lees in barrel for 12 months. It grips and steers, lending a spine of spice through the breadth of its billowy fruit. Serious rosato – outside the scope of assumption. Drink by 2028.

Milhoc Le Premier-ne Single Grain French Whisky (700ml)Armagnac, FRANCE$129. 99Bottle$1559.88 DozenABV: 45%Better known for his Armagnacs, Denis Lesgourgue's foray into whisky started in 2021 using Chateau de Laubade's column still. 'Milhoc' (pronounced Mi-Yoc) is a single grain expression made from 54% corn, the remainder malted barley. Maturation employs a selection of French and American oak, ex-Armagnac and ex-Bourbon barrels, ageing for between 4 and 5 years. While corn-heavy, the style is reported to be less sweet than traditional American equivalents, offering a well-rounded whisky with toasted notes of citrus, vanilla and sweet spices. Bottled at 45% without chill filtration.
Other reviews... The nose is bright and zippy, with aromas of lemon peel, lemon pound cake, a dollop of honey, and a faint soapy note. The palate is light but not thin, with lovely baking spices, café au lait, black pepper, and semi-sweet chocolate.

Fermented and matured in stainless, wood and amphora. A light, bright colour. Another aromatic gris from Lethbridge with its aromas of pear, honey and spice. It's ripe and flavourful on the palate, but the key here is just how bright the acidity is, keeping this delicious wine balanced and fresh. Drink now and over the next two to three years.

Alc. 12% - The Lark Distillery Amontillado Cask Finish Single Malt Australian Whisky (500ml) - Cellar Door ExclusiveTasmania, AUSTRALIA$199. 00Bottle$2388.00 DozenABV: 47%
Note: Product has come from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product not pictured.
Lark has a limited range of small batch whiskies available for purchase from the cellar door, usually sporting an uncommon variety of barrel finishes. This was their inaugural release. Starting out life in Bourbon and Apera casks, the whisky then spent its finishing period in Amontillado-style Apera casks from Seppeltsfield. Amontillado typically adds the very familiar qualities of your regular sherry influence, but backs it off a touch. Allowing the character of the base spirit to shine through. 1750 bottles produced. 47% Alc./Vol. - Lawrenny Descension Single Malt Australian Whisky (500ml)Tasmania, AUSTRALIA$199. 00Bottle$2388.00 DozenABV: 46.6%
Note: Product has come from a private collection and as such has some minor scuffing/scratches/handling marks. Actual product pictured.
This particular release from Lawrenny has had a pretty interesting life, experiencing several stages of maturation. Starting out in large Port and Bourbon casks for three years, it is then transferred to smaller casks of the same varieties for a further year, then another full year in Boal Madeira casks to finish the trip. Lawrenny states it is very reminiscent of a Scottish Highlander, with plenty of warm flavours and generous oak. 46.6% Alc./Vol.

An interesting concept from Lawrenny here. Infused with Huon Pine? Whether it was wood contact in the form of chips/sticks or something a little more scientific, even the producers can't properly explain the effect it has had. Beyond that, maturation was in a combination of Port and Sherry. As a truly 'paddock to bottle' product, expect a uniquely Tasmanian drinking experience. 50% Alc./Vol.

Certified biodynamic; 10% whole bunches, matured in new and used French oak barriques and puncheons for two years. The winemaker chose to release the 2019 before the 2018. A smart decision, given the upfront appeal of the '19. The '18 offers a darker intensity but boasts a similar beautiful balance. Deep perfume and flavours rich in Heathcote blackberries, cassis, pastille, bramble, wild bushland aromatics and inviting spice. Moves like a distance runner, fine tannins, firm and sleek. Drink by 2032.

Made using a combination of Scottish mainland barley, Islay-grown and organic barley, the whisky was matured in 80% ex-Bourbon casks and 20% Sherry casks (Oloroso and PX Butts), showcasing the profound influence of time and high-provenance oak on Laddie's complex, floral spirit. Head Distiller, Adam Hannett balances the influence of each – the PX bringing sweet raisin and fig, the Oloroso adding walnut, toasted oak and spice, all harmonising with the Bourbon’s contribution. 50% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.
Other reviews... Classic Bruichladdich, but even richer and fuller! Cheese notes, light smoke and barnyard, whey, the ripest orchard apple on the tree. Iron, which oxidizes over time and begins to smell like iron-rich mineral water. Taste Farmhouse whey, smoked cheese, salty and very sweet smoked caramel; smoked bacon, sweet and sour apples and a touch of Calvados. Fat, oily and thick! - whiskybase.com

Never Never Distilling Co. Oyster Shell Gin (700ml)South Australia, AUSTRALIA$84. 99Bottle$1019.88 DozenABV: 42%Other reviews... Oyster shells in spirit do not impart much flavour; instead, they bring a beautiful, fresh cream mouthfeel to the table. Playing into the maritime nature of oysters, Never Never employed the use of coastal botanicals to help get the feel of what an oyster-shell gin would taste like. The nose delivers great wafts of fresh lime scent on the backdrop of a subtle slate achieved through aromatic coastal herbs. The palate itself stays true to the classic gin profile, juniper still leads the charge with wisps of fresh citrus and salt coming through, oily waxflower, and the oyster shells are showcased here in their rich texture, juxtaposing the bright flavours. Notes of sharper fresh pine needles and hints of deeper coastal plants allude to an intriguing and mystifying finish. 93 points - Jess Clayfield, winecompanion.com

Mon Dieu, not Bowmore! Don’t tell me they’ve done that dreadful ‘Claret’ thing from twenty-five years ago all over again! Colour: gold – no pinkish hues, thank goodness. Nose: pata negra ham with redcurrant jelly, patchouli, bay leaf, and the usual saline Bowmore peat. In any case, it's not the calamity we had feared so far, at least for the moment. Mouth: they’ve shown a bit of tact here, it doesn’t burst into red fruit jelly sweets, and even the blackcurrants and cherries have been kept in check. No real clashes to speak of, just that odd sweet-and-savoury pudding note which remains a little baffling. Increasing amounts of crushed peppercorns too. Finish: fairly long, teetering on that tightrope between saline peat and the red fruits from Bordeaux – assuming it really is red Bordeaux, of course... Comments: at this rate, one wouldn’t mind knowing which vintage went into the wine casks, since in Bordeaux, vintages can be wildly different from one another. That would make sense, wouldn’t it? Anyway, this is far from a disaster. 83 points - whiskyfun.com
