    Other reviews... So still pre-reopening juice (so Invergordon-Jim Beam Brands). Utterly love the blurb on the 'label' (well, the stencil), no stoopid AI could have ever written that true piece of post-modern literature. Colour: amber. Nose: it's on quince jelly, juicy sultanas, pinecones, a little talc, fond de taint, pollens, pink pepper and oregano, caraway, something syrah-y, pizza oil (I know that's not very romantic), tomato sauce, sage… An unusual construction that rather loses you, but it's full of (unlikely) charms. Mouth: I find this arrival weirdly spicy and woody. A lot of wood spices (oak, pine, fir), heavy spices, cumin and clove, lees, stalk… I know it's me but this is not my kind of concoction, not on the palate, even if brighter notes of oranges would then try to balance it all. Weird drink. Finish: long, bitter, sour and leafy. Almost some artisanal Italian bitter. Comments: I've always had troubles with the Black Arts. In the first place, I've never quite understood the idea behind them, but knowing that it's a highly successful line, I'll simply tip my hat to them and bow modestly before this modern art of doing bizarre mixtures. 84 points - whiskyfun.com

    Jalisco, MEXICO
    $75. 99
    Bottle
    $911.88 Dozen
    ABV: 38%

    The red rooster is a very special bird in Mexico - a sign of the sun, and a key part of the national identity. The brand of tequila that bears its name selects piñas aged 6-7 years. Only fruit with a residual sugar content of 24-27% is chosen. These piñas are then halved to preserve their sweetness and twice distilled in stainless steel pot stills. This ensures that the exceptional agave flavours and aromas are preserved. Their Blanco is said to taste softer and smoother than other examples because of a unique filtration process during which pure water is filtered through Mexican silver. The flavour is initially sweet with a subtle yet distinct peppery spice. 38% Alc./Vol.

    Only dags and dads wear corduroy surely, but this wine is super classy. Fine, long and pure with gossamer-like acidity threaded through the lemon, lime and white nectarine flavours. It comes lightly spiced and lightly textured with some delicate leesy accents. Savoury, too, and mouth-watering with the right amount of tension to delight and even more pleasure to come in time. Drink by 2032.

    Grand Marnier Triple Sec Liqueur (500ml)
    Cognac, FRANCE
    $59. 99
    Bottle
    $719.88 Dozen
    ABV: 40%

    Made with oranges and Cognac, Grand Marnier is a liqueur immortal and one of the world's best known curacaos. Aged in the cellars of Chateau de Bourg in Cognac and blended with fruit from the French West Indies, the company's entry level bottling has become a bar standard, combining the tantalizing fragrance of Seville oranges with the warm, intoxicating rush of extra-aged cognac in a 49/51 blend. Offering superb purity and definition with notes of mixed peel, orange cake and vanilla and a concentrate of citrus peel and mandarin flavours, what's also admirable about this timeless liqueur is its expert balance; the lively spirit backbone and the finish that winds up fresh, mildly tart and vibrant with lingering honeyed-citrus flavours.

    If you want an even more indulgent experience, three super premium releases set the bar higher, introducing increasing proportions of (primarily) Grande Champagne Cognacs, sometimes boasting incredible age, adding further depth and complexity to an already remarkable liqueur. Whichever you choose, these expressions are best appreciated neat, on the rocks or in a snifter glass at room temperature. 40% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... The aroma is a sweet/sour, tangerine/Mandarin orange perfume that never stops enchanting. At the palate entry the orange zest’s acidity mingles gracefully with the Cognac’s alcohol, making for delicious drinking. Satiny finish. 90-95 - wineenthusiast.com

    Seasoned Casanovas also recommend Grand Marnier for a “Royal Romance”:

    In shaker; one-fourth each of Passionfruit juice and Grand Marnier, half gin, shake well and serve.
    Or try the popular B52:

    1/3 Grand Marnier
    1/3 Coffee liqueur
    1/3 Irish cream liqueur
    Pour delicately on a bar spoon the coffee liqueur, the Irish Cream then the GRAND MARNIER liqueur into a shooter glass. Serve without mixing.

    The Charleston
    1 shot of Cherry Brandy Liqueur (e.g. Cherry Heering)
    1 shot of Grand Marnier
    top up with lemonade and ice
    Method: Pour the cherry brandy and the orange liqueur into a highball. Stir well, then fill a highball glass with ice cubes and pour the cocktail directly over them . There is no need to use a strainer in this instance. Top up with the chilled lemonade to taste, then serve.

    Cellar: Drink now - 8 Years (2025-2033)
    ABV: 15%
    Closure: Cork

    Outstanding power, energy and structure with a long, dynamically juicy finish.

    Domaine Saint-Damien is run by Joel and Amie Saurel whose family has been tending vineyards for four generations, dating back to 1821. Until relatively recently they sold all of their grapes to negociants. In 1998 they brought on consulting winemaker Philippe Cambie and haven’t looked back. Of the estates 42 acres of vineyards, 30 acres are in Gigondas with vines that have an average age of 50 years.
    A blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah matured in large old foudres for a period of 12 months.
    Dense midnight black dark red core with a bright red to dark red hue. Wafting out of the glass are intense dark raspberry, liquorice and black plum scents which are complimented by some black cherry, violet, provincial herb, scorched earth and pepper notes. Rich, concentrated and succulent yet showing remarkable freshness, the palate is drenched in a tidal wave of dark raspberry, liquorice and black cherry fruits which are framed by muscular tannins and vibrant acidity. Infusions of Provencial herbs, earthy incense and pepper extend across the back half. Possessing outstanding power, energy and structure, it finishes long and dynamically juicy.
    Drink over the next 6-8 years.

    Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $599. 00
    Bottle
    $7188.00 Dozen
    ABV: 43%

    Launched in 2023, this is Macallan's celebration of the art of maturation, where the whisky's rich amber hue hints at the intricate dance between the spirit and the oak. Intended solely as a travel retail exclusive. 43% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... Ex-seasoned sherry oak, not sure if it was full-maturation or some 'enhancement', not sure that even matters (good mood mode activated here). Colour: dark gold. Nose: once again, it is rather 'old-school Macallan' while we're no longer too worried that the palate might be too light and too unbalanced by the wood since this baby has been bottled at 43% ABV. The difference is enormous between 40 and 43, we all know that. We find the usual dried and fresh figs, the apricots, some dried pears (slices), some high-end apple compote, various raisins, plum pudding, treacle toffee, kumquats and bergamots, some Demerara sugar, caramel and fudge… Nutshell: all is well. Mouth: there's much more happening in this one, the oak doesn't quite get in the way and the fruits in all their forms have plenty of room to express themselves. Kumquats, raisins, tangerines, figs, jujubes, apples, then honey, maple syrup and chocolate,  the latter becoming then a little bitter and drying, which comes from the oak I would suppose. No big deal, it's an excellent one. Also a little meatiness ala M**** (another 'M', a.k.a. the beast of Dufftown). Finish: still a little short and dry, but these peppered Seville oranges and these cloves do really work. Hints of honeysuckle. Comments: around 500-600€, apparently. No comments, except that to be honest, we would have preferred it to be a bit stronger, but it's still very good. 87 points - whiskyfun.com

    ...The nose opens with noble lacquered wood, lots of milk chocolate, carefully complemented by red berries and sour fruits. The signature sulfur content of The Macallan alcohols is felt. A little later, crusts of gray bread appear and the fruit palette is somewhat transformed: pineapples, dried bananas, peaches and orange peels become audible. The taste is similar to the nose in terms of wood, chocolate and sulfur, but there are more sherry tones here in the form of almonds, dried fruits, raisins, red grapes. Also present are floral honey and blood oranges. The finish is long, woody and chocolatey, with nuts and dried fruits. - whiskybase.com

    Central Otago, NEW ZEALAND
    $89. 99
    Bottle
    $1079.88 Dozen
    ABV: 13.8%
    Closure: Stelvin

    Felton Road's vineyards are managed using organic and biodynamic viticulture, ensuring the highest quality fruit arrives at the winery. From there winemaking is intentionally hands off with gravity flow, wild yeasts, wild malo, and an avoidance of fining and filtration to help preserve the expression of its terroir. Felton Road farms four properties totalling 32 ha in the Bannockburn sub-region of Central Otago. The fruit for this wine is a blend of four vineyards; Cornish Point, Calvert, MacMuir and The Elms.

    The 2024 Bannockburn Pinot Noir reflects a dry, steady growing season with cool March nights preserving freshness and precision. Handpicked fruit was gently destemmed (with 20% whole clusters) and traditionally fermented before maturing 13 months in French oak (20% new). Expect a wine of depth and vibrancy, balancing purity of fruit with fine tannin structure and impressive length.

    Inkwell make zinfandel and primitivo. Same, same, essentially. But the different blocks perform differently, so the nomenclature reflects that. This is genuinely reminiscent of Puglian primitivo, resplendent with dried fruits, currants, fig and date, blackberry, and hit heavily with spices, in an amaro and panforte register, anise to the fore, and underwritten by a dry, tarry earthiness. It’s opulent, in its way, but intensely savoury, too. Much more Puglia than California. And, of course, intrinsically McLaren Vale. Compelling. Drink by 2029.

    $1320.00 Dozen
    ABV: 14%
    Closure: Cork

    Planted in 2001 on a northeast-facing slope of dark volcanic soils over limestone, the Farrside vineyard produces a more structured and brooding style of Pinot Noir compared to its Sangreal counterpart. Hand-picked and wild-fermented, the fruit sees partial whole bunch inclusion before maturing in 50–60% new Allier oak.

    The cooler conditions of 2023 delayed harvest by 10–12 days, adding freshness and poise to the wine’s muscular frame. Complex, savoury, and finely structured, Farrside balances intensity with elegance, delivering a wine of depth and longevity that will evolve beautifully in the cellar.

    A superb release; svelte, complex, polished and effortless at once. It presents a wild array but it’s so seamless that it’s hard to tell where one nuance ends and another takes up. Nuts, peppers, strawberries and cherries, leaf matter and woodsmoke. It feels like Spring and Autumn in one. Tannin brings spice, mineral, fruit and flowers; the aftertaste remains juicy as it delivers savoury, earthen extras. It’s the detail in the satin that makes this wine feel so exquisite. Drink 2025-2032+.

    The evolution of this site and wine is complexing, gone are the days of words being used like bold, brash and muscular. Now two decades of releasing the wine, the description is fine, vibrate and ethereal. This wine has a retained nose for the moment, but the mouthfeel is almost jubilant in comparison. Even against the Sangreal, this feels plush and luxurious. A soft creamy and varietal ripeness, all swirling around to deliver lots of pleasure. It’s texturally generous and provides a nice counterpoint to the tight, edgy flavours of spice and pepper that is Farrside.

    $1320.00 Dozen
    ABV: 14%
    Closure: Diam Cork

    Planted in 1994, the original By Farr vineyard is the source of this Shiraz. Set on a north-facing slope with red volcanic soil over limestone and deep sandstone, it delivers fruit of concentration and poise. All grapes are hand-picked from VSP trellising, with a portion of whole bunches included to bring added spice and structure. In most vintages, 2–4% Viognier is co-fermented, depending on timing, adding aromatic lift and a subtle textural edge.

    The 2023 was naturally fermented, spending 19 days on skins before pressing. Maturation followed in French oak for 18 months, 20% new, before bottling under vacuum. This careful process highlights the distinctive character of the vineyard and the meticulous attention to detail that defines the By Farr estate.

    The wrap of savouriness around a core of sweet fruit, within a context of silk, is quite something. This is both a beautiful wine and a marvel. Red and black cherries, roasted meats, black pepper and graphite notes come gently infused with smoked cedar. There’s a high level of finesse to the tannin, and mouthwatering length. In every respect this is a top-flight release. Drink 2025-2033+.

    Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front

    This is sensational. It’s everything that amazing Shiraz tastes like. I say that from a non “big Aussie” Shiraz viewpoint. How a wine from the Moorabool Valley tastes like something from the Northern Rhone escapes me. Salty, peppery, black olives, floral notes and barrel spice. It has a coolness to it, accentuated by the acid that makes you finish one sip and immediately go for another one. It’s hard not to be gluttonous when a wine tastes this good. It is a breathtaking example of cool climate Shiraz and words cannot express the delight that it delivers. I’m so happy drinking this wine.

    2024 Viognier By Farr
    Geelong, Victoria, AUSTRALIA
    $110. 00
    Bottle
    $1320.00 Dozen
    ABV: 13.5%
    Closure: Diam Cork

    Fruit is sourced from the original 1994 house block (friable red soil over limestone and sandstone) and a younger planting on red ironstone. Viognier is notoriously demanding in the vineyard, prone to horizontal growth, sunburn, and requiring ample water, so in recent years the fruit has been picked earlier to preserve natural acidity and finesse.

    In the winery, grapes are foot-stomped and left on skins for several hours before pressing. Juice is transferred with all solids to barrel for natural fermentation, with gentle stirring in late autumn to initiate malolactic. The wine spends 11 months in barrel before racking, fining, filtration, and bottling.

    By Farr Viognier is routinely an outstanding example of the viognier grape. It is again with this 2024 release.
    This is a ripper. It’s characterful, it’s textural, it’s flavoursome and it’s beautifully persistent. Steel and mineral notes, cracked wheat, stonefruit, earth and roasted nuts. It’s one of those ‘one sip and you’re hooked’ wines. Exactly how it combines richness and finesse I’m not quite sure, but that it does. Drink 2025-2032.

    The ‘24 Viognier is an ultimate expression of oxidative winemaking, surrounded by bright acidity and savoury qualities. The wine has weight but think structure and refinement with a velvet touch. Year in year out, the Viognier by Farr blows the stereotypes of the variety to pieces, with it’s beautiful balance of peach, green ginger spice, chalk, flint and saline finish. Fast becoming another cult Farr wine.

    A bold and juicy Cotes du Rhone that has a chewy mouth feel.

    With an average annual production of around 4 million bottles, this wine is a model of consistency year in year out and one of Cotes du Rhone’s best buys.

Rich, concentrated and lush, the weighty palate is swamped with juicy black raspberry, black cherry and liquorice fruits. A ripe chewy tannin structure imparts a firm, robust mouth feel.

    Rhum J.M. Jardin Fruite Agricole Rum (700ml)
    MARTINIQUE
    $114. 99
    Bottle
    $1379.88 Dozen
    ABV: 42%

    The first in a series of three cocktail-focused special releases, aka, the "Atelier des Rhums" series. Each explores different flavour profiles achieved through various cask treatments and types. Made from sugarcane pressed within an hour of harvest, open tank fermented with French baker's yeast for 24 hours then aged for 2 years in lightly toasted French and American oak barrels; Jardin Fruité presents the antithesis of sugared-up modern rums, instead offering a fresh, elegant, medium-weight, dried fruit-forward style, with a hint of grassy cane reminding you that this is still agricole. It sips well on its own and makes an upgrade to any tropical punch or daiquiri variation, but the rum shines brightest in a spirit-forward stirred cocktail like an old-fashioned or Rum Manhattan, the balance of fruit and spice making for a robust and characterful drink. 42% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... Bright citrus and fruit aromas lead to a mellow palate with wood, ripe fruit, and grassy undertones. Well-balanced and particularly appreciated for its fruity freshness; a solid choice for those exploring young Agricole rums. - RumX

    1993 Glendronach Single Cask No.5820 Pedro Ximenez Sherry Puncheon 29 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $1199. 00
    Bottle
    $14388.00 Dozen
    ABV: 52.4%

    Featuring thick, dark tones of dried figs, prunes, apricots and dates, PX puncheon #5820 had an outturn of 678 bottles at 52.4% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    While Glendronach single cask whiskies haven't been explicitly discontinued, they have completely disappeared from the distillery's website. Currently the Australian market has only three lines allocated. It’s said that their rarity is due to limited output and growing demand. That situation is partly due to Glendronach's closure from 1996 to 2002 which impacted the availability of older stock. It would also explain the distillery’s recent re-focus on core range expressions that coincided with a packaging upgrade in 2024. Typically offering outturns of around 600 bottles per cask, the single barrel selections are famous for offering snapshots of a particular cask at a specific point in time, making each one unique.

    Described as "Luxurious and full-bodied", single cask #4194 reveals itself in flavours of leather and tobacco, intertwined with vibrant citrus zest; dried blueberries, roasted walnuts and raisins adding a beautiful sweetness. 669 bottles were drawn from a single Oloroso puncheon at 52.8% Alc./Vol. Non-chill filtered.

    Bottle
    $1499.88 Dozen
    ABV: 46%

    Debuting in 2024 and crafted by Master Blender, Karine Lassalle, Épices Créoles is aged for a minimum of 3 years in French and American oak barrels of varying sizes and char levels. The process of toasting the barrels results in a rum that's intensely spicy, but not spiced! 46% Alc./Vol.

    Other reviews... The nose is full of scintillating spice notes—particularly clove, allspice, and powdered ginger, with a bit of sweet nutmeg and other baking spices—and toasted oak. Tart, floral tropical fruit (mango, papyaya) comes in at the palate, mixed with herbal notes of sage and rosemary. Though it's decidedly fruity, the finish veers toward umami/earthy tones, with a balanced dryness, light to medium richness, and spark of spicy heat. 91 points - distiller.com

    "Really nice agricole. Pepper and spice with a good heat." - rumratings.com

    Notes from the producers... Nose: Delicate on the vanilla pod, honey and warm woody notes. After agitation, subtle notes of gingerbread with cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla and ginger appear. Powerful and harmonious, the nose suggests a mouth with a bold character.  Palate: The attack on the palate is powerful on spicy notes: cinnamon, vanilla, nutmeg, pepper, almost hot pepper… spicy heat gradually gives way to toasted, roasted and almost smoky notes of oak wood. Finish: Captivating the smoky notes with a persistent spicy feel left on the upper lips.

    $320. 00
    Bottle
    $3840.00 Dozen
    ABV: 54.1%

    Quite a 'dirty' or 'farmyardy' expression of Ledaig according to some tasters and so a bottling that may not suit everyone's tastes, but then, taking coastal flavours to an extreme is what this make is all about. If you like Longrow, Lediag should be on your short list. Matured in a first-fill sherry butt, cask #900158 had an outturn of 593 bottles. 54.1% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... Hay, cigar tobacco, peaty, herbal, little smoky, iodine, little kippery, medicinal, dried fruits, dates, hint of varnish, cowshed, little dirty, hint of leather. Taste: Punchy, hay, leather, candied fruits, pepper, subtle sweetness, smoky, peaty, herbs, more dirty, sulphury. - whiskybase.com

    ...The whisky has a lot of power, which is never unpleasant. The dirty smoke becomes increasingly "cleaner" in the finish and becomes lingering campfire smoke that lingers on the cheeks with oak spice and a slight sweetness. I personally like it very much. - whiskybase.com

    1997 Signatory Vintage Macallan 25 Year Old Symington's Choice Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)
    Speyside, Highlands, SCOTLAND
    $2999. 00
    Bottle
    $35988.00 Dozen
    ABV: 54.8%

    Signatory’s founder, Andrew Symington was working at the prestigious Prestonfield House Hotel when he bought his first cask of whisky: a 1968 Glenlivet. Today, his good taste has transpired as a series in itself, highlighting his favourite casks from the vast selection housed in the enormous warehouses at Edradour in Pitlochry. The first Symington’s Choice selections were released in 2023 with a focus on heavily sherried single casks aged between 20-35 years old. It's these whiskies that (mostly) make up the current shipment. Subsequent releases will be a little younger, generally 15-20 years old, though still predominantly from first fill sherry casks. Apart from the expected quality, there is a 'wow factor' to the prices that makes each and every one worthy of consideration.

    Obviously matured in a first-fill Oloroso sherry butt, you'd have to go back to the 1980s to discover Macallans as deep and dark as this. We have a small number of bottles from cask 12/3. Serge Valentin from whiskyfun tasted sister cask 12/4 and was impressed. Expections would be similar here. 649 bottles produced. 54.8% Alc./vol. Non chill filtered.

    Notes from a sister cask 12/4... The whisky is almost as dark as the label! Here is a brand new range from Signatory, very high-end, with some pretty extraordinary names like Laphroaig, Bowmore, and indeed, Macallan. The prices seem high, but I'm sure it's worth it and not just marketing hype. At least it's not another NAS with a fancy name and story, straight from ChatGPT or Wikipedia. Colour: coffee. Nose: a pretty wonderful dry sherry, full of Havana tobacco, prunes, dried dates, old walnuts, and hoisin sauce, with an extraordinary fermentary and even slightly acetic side (old balsamic vinegar). We're a bit in the territory of a very old Ténarèze, or of the best of the Macallan 'Gran Reserva' from back in the day. With water: it becomes rather more elegant, almost slightly austere, with a very "grand chocolate from a great house" side. I always find it amusing to hear my Swiss, Belgian, Italian, Spanish or French friends claim that they make the best chocolates in the world. What if it were the Scots, perhaps even Scots from Pitlochry? Mouth (neat): creamy, goes down easily! Well, almost, there's still a lot of thickness, a syrupy texture, liquorice and pipe tobacco, a bit of tar, lots of dried prunes, Corinth raisins, precious molasses (if it existed), then peppermint and very chocolatey toffee... With water: it peacocks and goes fractal, with lots of spices, dried fruits, organic matter, and various old liqueurs. Alright, let's finish it, we don't have all day... Finish: long as a day without bread and indeed, rather on very damp pumpernickel, chocolate, and competition fruitcake (we have the winner). Comments: a real hit, after Signatory's sublime range of '30th Anniversary Bottlings' of three or five years ago. Come on, let's store it in its bottle for twenty more years to try to reach 95/100, then we'll talk about it again. What's sure is that this is Macallan as in 'Macallan', that is to say In compliance with what is written on the label of the bottle that follows... 93 points - whiskyfun.com

    "...excellent malt driven whisky. True to Glen Keith character." - whiskybase.com

    You don't often see Glen Keith pop up, even from independents. One of the younger distilleries in Scotland, having only been founded in 1957 by the Chivas Brothers, in 2000 the distillery was mothballed but fired up again thirteen years later. Finding mature stocks like this is a rarity. Matured in a second fill oloroso sherry butt, Cask No.7 yielded 635 bottles at a natural strength of 58% alc./vol. Non chill filtered.

    Other reviews... The second fill oloroso butt used to mature this Glen Keith did a hell of a job. Men! Kicks off with a fine dose of oranges and slight sour raspberries. But there’s more of those orange fruits, like peaches and apricots, they really stand out. An excellent balance between distillate and wood. Added in a nice fudgey sweetness, some tobacco and obligatory spices. Good neat, better with a teaspoon of water. I enjoyed this Glen Keith very mucho - recommended! - whiskybase.com

    It’s an excellent malt driven whisky. True to Glen Keith character. I like it A lot. Modern style. White pepper and ginger In the finish. Stone fruits in the nose and palate. Aloe Vera. Fairly hot. - whiskybase.com

    The 2023 Riesling Bernkasteler Badstube Spätlese exudes a mossy green charm with lemon balm tinged in slight citric sweetness. The palate reveals this sweetness as Reine Claude plum compote, accompanied by lemon balm and wonderful brightness and lightness, with no baby fat at all. An utter charm bomb with serene sweetness and a delightful tinkle of lemon. Drink 2026-2056.

    A very cool and elegant Mosel riesling spatlese with aromas of white flowers dripping after a summer storm. Brimming with sliced pear fruit but barely off-dry on the palate, this is so easy to enjoy, with its deep well of finesse. The interplay of racy acidity, wet-stone character and fruit in the finish is stunningly beautiful. Drink or hold.

    The sensuous curves of Art Nouveau design and joyful flourishes of rococo both give an idea of what Mosel riesling elegance means, but in a masterpiece like this it takes on a totally distinctive feeling unlike anything else on Planet Wine. The white peach fruit, white flower aromas and slatey minerality all tingle on your palate, then flicker on and on in a totally fascinating manner in the nearly endless finish. The touch of sweetness is already beautifully integrated, although the wine just began a decades-long life. Drink or hold.

    This fabulous Auslese lays out a whole basket of exotic fruit before you. The almost supernatural freshness is no less exciting. Terrific tension between the two, the acidity giving this great brilliance on the extremely precise, medium-bodied palate. The finish almost perfectly balances the restrained richness and intense wet-stone minerality. Limited production. Still very youthful, but how can you resist the beauty? Drink or hold.

    The 2023 Riesling Graacher Himmelreich Auslese, made virtually without botrytis from fully ripe grapes, offers a shy tone of stone and yeast. The palate features Mirabelle jelly with lovely overtones of lemon balm and fern, wonderfully cut by freshness with a pithy, zesty edge of lime and mainly pale lemon. The finish resembles lemon and yellow plum sorbet, exquisitely fresh and palate-cleansing, yet with exquisite sweetness. Incredibly fine, slender and so balanced. Drink 2028-2060.

    This youthful Mosel riesling Auslese has a vibrancy and precision that is often missing in these wines, blanketed by thick botrytis richness. I love the mint and chamomile freshness that pulls you into this juicy and concentrated wine and also make it very filigreed on the medium-bodied palate. Incredible precision and subtlety in the super-long finish. Try to be patient, because this is a marathon runner. Drinkable now, but best from 2026.

Such finesse, lightness and filigree nature, yet so much depth. Simply astonishing and a paradigm of site and style. Drink 2028-2060.

    This great Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese shows exactly the combination of white flower and white peach aromas with silky succulence and extraordinary freshness that made these wines legendary. There’s a healthy amount of unfermented grape sweetness, but the interplay of this with the myriad other components is so complex and fascinating. Super-graceful finish that feels like stroking satin. Drinkable now, but best from 2026.

    The 2023 Bernkasteler Lay Auslese (Gold Capsule) is deep, fresh and savory on the crunchy, lemon-scented and honeyed nose that combines reductive with coolish wet stone and saline notes. Very refined and elegant on the palate, this is a playful, crystalline and weightless yet also rich and sweet but stimulating crystalline Auslese with lush yet finessed fruit and a long, well-balanced and very elegant finish. It's highly salivating and irresistible even at this young stage. 8% stated alcohol. Natural cork. Tasted at the domaine from AP 14 24 in January 2025. Drink 2025-2080.

    The 2023 Riesling Bernkasteler Lay Auslese Goldkapsel, with about a third of botrytis-affected fruit, offers an intense aroma of dandelion blossom and ripe peach, complemented by a hint of smokiness. The concentrated palate features intense sweetness framed by a gorgeous spice of candied grapefruit. This intensity seems to delve deeper into the stone, enticing you to take another salty-sweet sip. Drink 2026-2060.

    Welcome to the peak of Mosel filigree in a category where most consumers only expect honeyed richness. Pure silk on the medium-bodied palate, where the great concentration slowly creeps up on you, building to a fantastic crescendo with a pink grapefruit freshness that’s unique in this category. You can drink it now, but then you will miss some of the greatness that’s still locked inside this treasure chest. Drink or hold.

    The 2023 Riesling Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese Goldkapsel opens with a fleeting touch of mint oil before revealing a world of peachy suppleness and concentration, countered by lemon and tender, light-footed elegance. It unfolds with exquisite aromatic finesse. Yes, this is a Goldkapsel, but its lightness and purity are exquisite. So fine and bright with a lastingly zesty finish. Drink 2024-2070.

    One of the great Mosel Auslese masterpieces of modern times, this has all the floral splendor of the Wehlener Sonnenuhr vineyard site on the medium-bodied palate, through which an extremely delicate thread of floral honey flows. Then the exotic fruit aromas cascade over you at the extremely long and precise finish. Perfect balance makes this seem much less sweet than it really is. Limited production. Drink or hold.

    Rich, dense and concentrated yet sculptured and fresh.

    Pitch black core with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Intense black cherry, blackberry and liquorice aromas infused with blackpepper sail out of the glass followed by some toasty cedar, earth and meaty clove like notes. Rich, dense and concentrated a tidal wave of blackberry, liquorice and black cherry fruits engulf the mouth. Scorched earth, vanillin cedar and peppered dried meat elements ensue. Counterpointing the opulence of fruit is a youthful freshness. A polished yet sculptured tannin structure imparts some firmness onto the long deeply fruited conclusion.

    Sourced from blocks planted by Trevor Mast in the 1990s. Maturation in French barriques (40% new) for 15 months. It is a constant that Talus is immediately understated, elegant and yet it builds and builds in the glass. Lifted florals, acacia, sage, black pepper mix with dark berries and woodsy scented oak. The pepper factor, while supple and fresh, runs long and lingering. Ditto fine tannins. Very MLG. Drink by 2036.

    Vividly fragrant, featuring notes of black pepper and crushed dark fruit. It has a more pronounced tannin structure than is characteristic of Langi’s single vineyards. Tightly wound, it displays subtle blue fruit character and an austere, compact finish. While drinkable now, it will become significantly more expressive with some bottle age. Drink from 2025. Screw cap.

    A brilliant and bright Shiraz shows the elegance and sleek style of this region. Spicy cherry and plummy characters emerge on the nose with just a little black pepper character. The super fine and elegantly structured palate is the highlight. The spicy fruits with their lightly dried herb and bright berry characters are immediately captivating. Fine chalky tannins and oak, of which 40% was new, strike a perfect supporting balance. Terrific wine. Drink 2024-2037.

    Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia Colleccion Extra Anejo 100% Agave Tequila (700ml) - 38%
    Jalisco, MEXICO
    $199. 99
    Bottle
    $2399.88 Dozen
    ABV: 38%

    First released in 1995 to celebrate the company's 200th birthday, José Cuervo Reserva de la Familia pioneered the category of extended age Tequila. Matured for a minimum of two years in a combination of American and French oak barrels, some of the reserve components are up to thirty years old. The tequila itself which has been described as "rich and brandy-like" doesn't change much from year to year. And just as consistency has become its hallmark, so too has been its high praise. What does change annually is the packaging, with a different Mexican artist making each release a collector’s item. 

    In 2023 the box has been designed by artists Rolando Flores and Gabriel Cázares of the Mexico-based Tercerunquinto Collective. The custom art titled “Structuring a Landscape”, features a geometric abstraction of the landscape of Jalisco.

    [2017 edition tasted from a 20ml sample] Pale copper gold. The bouquet combines blanco-like vibrancy with the kind of depth you'd expect from XO cognac - brine, charred capsicum, smoldering eucalyptus, beeswax, vanilla and menthol... with air contact, it also presents a drier, woody aspect including cigar box, cedar and white pepper. Likewise the silky delivery matches sappy agave and butter menthol lozenge-like flavours against drying astringency. It's delicate and somewhat fleeting through the finish, trailing off with black tea, potpourri, white pepper, hints of grilled pineapple, vanilla and trace beeswax. The overall effect strikes a fine balance between young and old. [40% Alc./Vol. tasted]

    Refreshing, texturally appealing Soave.

    Brilliant very pale straw colour with a watery hue. Pear and red apple scents sail out of the glass followed by whiffs of light musk and wet stone. Delicious pear and red apple fruits are layered across the palate with a river stone like feel. Delicate infusions of musk and stony mineral elements lie underneath. Brisk acidity with a long refreshing finish.
