2014 Moulin Touchais

Coteaux du Layon, Loire Valley, FRANCE
$74. 99
Bottle
$899.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 30 Years (2025-2055)

ABV: 12%

Closure: Cork

Luscious yet fresh with a long, elegant finish.

The wines of Moulin Touchais begin reaching their peak after twenty years, and many of the great vintages will take much longer. Vintages such as the 1953, 1959, 1964, 1969 are still maturing. The 1945, 1947 and 1949 have become classics. Moulin Touchais are the only winemakers in the world who give a century long guarantee on the longevity of their wines (subject to being kept under optimal cellar conditions). Bottles may show some sediment or deposit. One should understand this is due to the traditional filtration process, the main aim being to protect the colour, the bouquet and the depth of flavour of the wine.
Bright pale gold straw colour with gold tinged edges. Aromas of ripe pear, red apple skin and quince draped in honey sail from the glass with toffee apple and spice notes ensuing. Rich honeyed red apple, quince and pear skin flavours balance a luscious feel with brisk underlying acidity. Marmalade and spice elements linger across the back half. Finishes long, fresh and quincy with an elegant feel.
Drink over the next 20-30 years.

1975 Darroze Domaine de Bellair 49 Year Old Cask Strength Bas Armagnac (700ml)

Armagnac, FRANCE
$550. 00
Bottle
$6600.00 Dozen

ABV: 45.5%

This addition to Darroze's ongoing 'Unique Collection' of single vineyard, cask strength brandies is one of the oldest releases to date: distilled in 1975 and bottled in October 2024. It's fairly muted bouquet evokes cinnamon and woody/resiny notes alongside tobacco leaf, developing subtle fruitiness (baked pineapple / citrus), but only after ample time in the glass. The initial taste is bold, typically Armagnac, giving more than the resin-laced bouquet with semi-sweet vanilla and caramel-like flavours accompanied by dried fruit slice. Oak and chewy tannins reign in the mid-palate, leaving an attractive coffee-cake and rancio aspect to contemplate through the final stages. Not exactly the pinnacle of Armagnac, but quite good. Where else can you obtain a 49 year old wood aged spirit for well under $1000? 45.5% Alc./Vol. Tasted from a 30ml sample.
Notes from the producers... look for keynotes of fig jam and brioche apple pie in a long and complex delivery.
Francis and Marc Darroze roam the best estates and terroirs of Bas Armagnac in search of the most beautiful and distinctive brandies. Around 30 estates contribute to their "Unique Collection" with each barrel finishing its ageing in the Roquefort and Labastide d’Armagnac cellars.These are rustic spirits, entering the alembic via small vineyards, distilled by reputable mobile distillers, each demanding several decades of careful ageing in oak barrels in order to express a sense of place and vintage. The typical Armagnac grower raises a range of animals fed by many different crops, plus a small vineyard, part of which is distilled every year and aged in one or more barrels which constitute the savings of the farm. A sick bull, a dying horse or a retiring tractor are repaired or replaced by the sale of a barrel. Multiply the number of farms and vintages and you have the dizzying variety of the Darroze collection: Different because each farm is almost as unique as each barrel. Add to this zero reduction (only through ageing), no caramel colouring as well as labeling transparency and you have Armagnacs that are all about the time in oak (once in glass, nothing improves or changes. An 1890 Armagnac bottled in 1900 is no better than a 2007 bottled in 2017, but collectors don't want you to know that!)

Bacardi Carta Oro Gold Rum (1000ml)

PUERTO RICO
$87. 99
Bottle
$1055.88 Dozen

ABV: 37.5%

First produced in 1862, re-launched around 2015 and named after the Spanish word for Gold, Bacardi Oro is the premium blend from the Bacardi stable based in Peurto Rico. Fourteen young rums make up the mix which is aged for just one to two years adding subtle notes of toffee and muscovado sugar. Filtered once through charcoal for smoothness, expect a lighter, drier style made for mixing.
Other reviews... The Carta Oro despite all of Bacardi’s marketing gimmicks is not a very sophisticated or complex spirit. If you want a strong hit of alcohol in a glass then reach for the Carta Oro. From the intense alcohol fumes on the nose to the strong ethanol notes when sipped and the strong boozy flavours when mixed this isn’t anywhere near as sophisticated as it wants to be.

Experimental de Christian Drouin Foursquare Cask Finish 19 Year Old Calvados (700ml)

Normandy, FRANCE
$250. 00
Bottle
$3000.00 Dozen

ABV: 46.8%

Drouin's Experimental Pays d'Auge Calvados is described by its creator as "one of the most intense and rich expressions we've produced in this range." After exploring the islands of Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago and Martinique, Guillaume Drouin was inspired to age a seventeen year old brandy in French oak rum barrels from the famous Foursquare Distillery in Barbados. A seventeen month spell was followed by three months in freshly toasted barrels. The rum imparts brown sugar and vanilla notes, while the toasted barrels enhance roundness and structure. The resulting calvados has aromas of ripe apples, vanilla, caramel and brown sugar, with flavours of tropical fruits, dark chocolate and spice - an exotic marriage and a perfect balance between two worlds. 2396 bottles produced. 46.8% Alc./Vol.
Notes from the producers... On the nose, this calvados awakens the senses with its captivating aromas of ripe and roasted apples, delicate vanilla, creamy caramel and brown sugar. On the palate, it reveals all its richness with suave and harmonious flavors of tropical fruits, dark chocolate and sweet spices. The finish is long and powerful, opening with notes of pine nuts and almond.

2022 Occhipinti Siccagno Nero d'Avola

Sicily, ITALY
$89. 99
Bottle
$1079.88 Dozen

ABV: 12.5%

Closure: Cork

Occhipinti is one of the hottest names in Italian wines, and their tiny production is highly sought after. Situated a mere 15km from the Mediterranean, the vineyards are 250m above sea level planted to Frappato and Nero d’Avola. Winemaking is natural and hands off, with fermentation occurring spontaneously, no temperature control, no fining, no filtration and only minimal sulphur additions at bottling.
Arianna Occhipinti refers to her Nero d'Avola as Siccagno, a grape she feels represents so much about the wild yet fresh and elegant side of Sicily. The average age of the vines is around 35 years, planted to a sandy vineyard with calcareous rocks at 280 meters above sea level. Wild fermentation occurs in cement tanks, and the grapes spend 25 days macerating on skins before pressing and maturation for two years in large 30HL Austrian oak barrels.
Other Reviews....
The 2022 Nero d'Avola Siccagno 22 entices with an earthy, darkly floral bouquet that blends spiced blackberries, crushed rocks, savory herbs and nuances of fresh tobacco. It coasts across the palate with ease, soft and round, yet a zesty core of citrus-tinged acidity and minerals adds tension toward the close. The 2022 finishes long and pleasantly tart, with a hint of tangerine and sour cherry that creates a chewy sensation. Drink 2026-2034.

Winemaking is natural and hands off, with fermentation occurring spontaneously, no temperature control, no fining, no filtration and only minimal sulphur additions at bottling.
Santa Margherita is a recent addition to the portfolio. The vineyard is located 490 meters above sea level, planted to Grillo, and is surrounded by pine forest, oaks and secular olive trees. Arianna Occhipinti gives her Grillo a short 48 hour maceration, before spontaneous wild fermentation occurs in concrete and oval Austrian oak barrels, and the wine is matured for 12 months prior to bottling.
Other Reviews....
Decidedly savory, the 2023 Bianco Santa Margherita 23 opens in the glass with shavings of raw ginger, dusty dried flowers and a hint of citrusy spice. It is round in feel, with a pulse of saline minerality up front that beautifully contrasts its ripe orchard fruits. Perfumed and exceptionally long, the 2023 finishes with lovely tension, leaving a tinge of young kiwi that fades slowly. The calcareous soils of Santa Margherita ring true in this elegant Grillo.

2022 Occhipinti Bombolieri (BB) Frappato

ABV: 12%

Closure: Cork

Occhipinti is one of the hottest names in Italian wines, and their tiny production is highly sought after. Situated a mere 15km from the Mediterranean, the vineyards are 250m above sea level planted to Frappato and Nero d’Avola. Winemaking is natural and hands off, with fermentation occurring spontaneously, no temperature control, no fining, no filtration and only minimal sulphur additions at bottling.
Perched on a limestone-rich outcrop facing the Serra San Bartolo, Bombolieri's Vigna Strada is characterized by a mere 25 cm of sandy topsoil overlaying solid limestone. This minimal soil depth, combined with the high mineral content, imparts a linear, saline-driven profile to the Frappato, showcasing pronounced acidity and a taut structure. The vineyard's varying hues—from deep chestnut to stark white—mirror the wine's dynamic interplay between fruit purity and mineral tension.
Other Reviews....
The 2022 Frappato Bombolieri (Bb) is dark and dusty, with a whiff of ashen stones and flowery underbrush elevating its crushed blackberry fruit. Elegance and silky smoothness define the palate, where a tension-building blend of tart wild berries, brisk acidity and a hint of rosemary emerge toward the close. A twang of tropical citrus and saline concentration linger as this finishes with a gentle tannic tug and cascade of inner florals. The Bombolieri hails from limestone-rich soils that lend an amazing vertical feel to the experience. Drink 2026-2034.

Winemaking is natural and hands off, with fermentation occurring spontaneously, no temperature control, no fining, no filtration and only minimal sulphur additions at bottling.
As one of Arianna's foundational vineyards, Fossa di Lupo features sandy soils with red to chestnut tones and a significant presence of surface limestone rocks. Beneath 40 cm of sand lies a layer of solid, hard limestone. The northeast-facing albarello-trained vines benefit from the cooling breezes of the Hyblaean Mountains, resulting in a Frappato that balances ripe red fruit with a firm, austere backbone and vibrant acidity. This site consistently yields wines of structure and longevity.
Other Reviews....
The 2022 Frappato Fosso di Lupo (Fl) opens with wild aromatics, mixing blood orange and peach with mint leaf and white smoke. Wonderfully complete, it coasts across the palate with grace, displaying silky textures and vibrant red and blue berry fruits. A gentle tug of fine tannins and a lifting hint of tangerine appear as the 2022 tapers off with floral resonance. Drink 2025-2034.

Inky black heart with a deep dark red black tinged hue. Pronounced red to black currant and mulberry scents fill the olfactory senses followed by some red plum, vanillin cedar, tobacco and dried herb notes. Rich with a youthful inkiness to the mid weighted palate, ripe red to black currant, mulberry and red plum fruits are framed by a sturdy tannin structure and lively acidity. Vanillin cedar, earthy tobacco and spicy dried herb elements sit in the background. Bright, chalky medium length finish.
Cellar 6-8 years.
Alc. 14.5%
Other Reviews…..
It feels cool and relaxed with an abundance of varietal/Margaret River flavours: cassis, mulberries, a dusting of cocoa powder, nori and lots of fresh herbs plus eucalyptus with cedary, sweet oak. Medium bodied and supple with fleshy fruit across the palate and textural, refined tannins. It’s a lovely drink now but will last some distance. Drink by 2034.

2023 Wirra Wirra Farmer’s Heart Grenache

$275.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 6 Years (2025-2031)

ABV: 14.5%

Closure: Stelvin

Juicy red fruited Grenache that has a fresh, lively feel.
The fruit for the 2023 Farmer’s Heart Grenache was selected from a range of diverse sub-regions within McLaren Vale. These vineyards boast an age range spanning from 26 to 130 years old. Notably, 48% of the blend originates from vines over a century old, while 74% is derived from those over 95 years in age.
Deep dark red black tinged colour with a purple red tinged hue. Aromas of raspberry and red liquorice infused with white pepper sail through the nostrils with some fresh herb, earthy graphite and spice notes also evident. Juicy red cherry, red raspberry and red liquorice fruits decorate the mid weighted palate that has a fresh, lively feel. Extending across the back half are notions of vanillin spice, earthy graphite and pepper. Understated in its power it has good tension and a sturdy yet polished tannin framework. The long finish vibrant, succulent and peppery.
Drink over the next 5-6 years.

Other Reviews....
This came off mainly old vines, with 74% 95 years of age or more; matured in older oak. Ripe, but a product of the cool year, this drinks towards mid-weight, with strawberry, wild raspberry, sour cherry, damson, pomegranate and medicinal herbs coiled into a thoughtful and intricate warp and weft of tannin. There’s a pleasing sour-fruited tension to this, which complements the grip, the combination aching for food. The ripeness is à point, the structure bravely savoury and compelling. It’s delightful, but no pushover. Drink by 2030.

Ardbeg Anamorphic Committee Release Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Islay, SCOTLAND
$299. 00
Bottle
$3588.00 Dozen

ABV: 48.2%

The point of difference in Ardbeg's latest Committee release sees the cask heads scored to expose more of the wood's surface area. The cask ends were heavily toasted using the distillery's 'high mocha' toasting process and the inside of the barrels were charred. The process is said to temper the briny overtones, ramp up hidden chocolaty sweetness and magnify sensations of mocha. Bottled non chill filtered at 48.2%. Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... The story with Anamorphic revolves around barrel charring. After removing the heads of classic Ardbeg bourbon casks, they were scored deeply to expose more wood and then intensely charred before being filled. Jack Daniel’s did a similar trick with its Sinatra Select bottlings. Does Ardbeg need more wood on it? The nose of the non-age-stated whisky is every bit as dark and smoky as the classic Ardbegs you know and love, offering a bruising aroma of burnt end barbecue and dying beach bonfire embers. It’s a bit daunting at first, starting off as rather one-note until you let it settle down in glass, revealing more layers beyond pushy smoke. Let Anamorphic rest in glass for a while, lest you down sip after sip of charry, tarry peat, free of nuance. After 15 minutes or so, fruit becomes much more evident, with elements of banana and baked apples, then a significant chocolate quality, ringed with walnuts. There’s plenty of aggressive tar that lingers on the back end, but for many an Ardbeg fan, that’s just what the good doctor ordered. All told, Anamorphic doesn’t exactly shift expectations for the brand, but rather it doubles down on them. - drinkhacker.com
...This Ardbeg comes from ex-Bourbon casks with toasted heads, and the nose has touches of chili-infused chocolate, a hint of anise, and a slightly herbal character. The taste has notes of grilled citrus, chili powder, dark chocolate, cocoa nibs, and a gentle peatiness. The finish is long with a gentle smokiness and touches of dark chocolate and soft spices. Excellent! (October, 2023) 95 points - whiskycast.com
Notes from the producers... Nose: Earthy, dusty, and slightly biscuity on the nose, this is a most curious Ardbeg, almost from an alternative universe. The sooty/tarry notes are clear but restrained, and are balanced out by some silky vanilla. Water opens up a myriad of herbal and floral notes- smoked etiver root, aniseed, fennel, chrysanthemum and jasmine, to name but a few. Palate: The mouthfeel is peppery and warming, and precedes an explosion of fiery, spicy flavours – chili – flavoured chocolate, bitter sweet mocha, briar wood, birch tar, ground black pepper and smoked artichokes. The sooty/tarry notes build up to a crescendo of rich, smoky flavours, with an incredible, lingering aftertaste of charcoal bitter almonds and molasses.

Grey Goose Altius Luxury Vodka (700ml)

Cognac, FRANCE
$199. 99
Bottle
$2399.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Inspired by the breathtaking French Alps, Altius captures the essence of windswept mountains, icy blue skies and soaring geese at high altitudes. And while most drinkers will be attracted to the superb presentation, others will be asking "Does this taste any different to regular Grey Goose?" According to the company, it certainly does, describing it as complex with delicate minerality, soft green apple notes and a unique earthy undertone. The same winter-wheat is employed, however the distillate is filtered at sub-freezing temperatures for an extra smooth taste and velvety mouthfeel. The final product is cut back with alkaline spring water from the Alps. Premium vodka may not get much better than this! 40% Alc./Vol.

Noilly Prat Ambre Vermouth (750ml)

Marsiellan, FRANCE
$36. 99
Bottle
$443.88 Dozen

ABV: 16%

Vermouth enthusiasts will be glad to find what has been described as Noilly Prat's 'distillery edition' now in Australia. First offered in 1986, Ambre's distribution has remained modest, mainly limited to European markets. It's produced in a similar fashion to the Original Dry, however it includes additional botanicals (totaling 49 compared to 25) such as cinnamon from Sri Lanka, cardamom from India and coriander and rose buds from Morocco as well as lavender and vanilla for a richer, slightly sweeter experience. It works over ice, in a spritz with a slice of grapefruit or mixed with apple cider as a long drink. It can also be used as a substitute for other styles of vermouth in cocktails - for example, as a lighter stand-in for sweet vermouths. 16% Alc./Vol.
Other reviews... Rich, dessert-like wine balanced by bitter rooty/barky notes, citrus oils and acidity. A bianco vermouth with attitude and colour. 5 stars - diffordsguide.com

Southern Comfort Whiskey Liqueur (1000ml)

New Orleans, Louisiana, UNITED STATES
$69. 99
Bottle
$839.88 Dozen

ABV: 30%

In 1874 M.W. Heron, a bartender, developed Southern Comfort in his bar near La Rue Bourbon in New Orleans and first served it in traditional fashion from a whiskey barrel. In 1934 after a short break in production due to Prohibition, Southern Comfort introduced their current distinctive label featuring the now famous Currier and Ives lithograph of a Southern plantation house on the banks of the Mississippi. The plantation is known as "Woodland Plantation", built in 1834. Southern enthusiasts can visit the newly renovated mansion, which now operates as a nine bedroom country inn.
Southern's identity as a bourbon lies only in its origins. Its inception was in an awful whisky batch that Heron was attempting to improve. Actually, Southern Comfort was originally a Peach Liqueur, and one of the few peach liqueurs on the market. Produced using neutral spirit and over 100 ingredients, the final liqueur matured for eight months prior to bottling.
Since then the formula has changed and Southern is now branded a 'whiskey liqueur'. Sweet and rich with a molasses background and faint medicinal flavour, it's America’s “Take it easy Drink”. Enjoy it straight, on the rocks or with cola.
Other reviews... Translucent bronze, Vaporous, perfume, and orange blossom nose. A smooth, round attack leads to a medium-to full-bodied palate of thin, candied orange, pitted fruit, marshmallow candy, and brown spices. Finishes with a wash of heat, tropical fruit candy, and kiddy cough syrup-like flavor. Lacks the traditional whisky backbone of flavor—reformulated? 83 points (Recommended) - tastings.com

Bottle
$1679.88 Dozen

ABV: 48%

Other reviews... Worth noting is the rising alcohol strength, which could—just an observation—suggest a focus on malt enthusiasts rather than the wider public, which seems increasingly drawn to lightness, if not outright superficiality, in all things. Right. Colour: gold. Nose: indeed, not the rather light and airy malt one might have expected a few years back; on the contrary, it has presence, even a certain weight, with spicy notes on the nose, sunflower oil, very ripe apple, orange cake, exotic fruit jam, as well as Sichuan pepper and even a wee touch of curry. Style-wise, it seems to lean somewhat towards that other great Orkney name. Mouth: very fruity but with a lovely mentholated touch, almost medicinal, certainly a little salty, though it remains on pineapple and apple. Gradually shifting towards allspice, with a bit of turmeric and caraway. A small spoonful of mashed potato. Finish: great length, beautifully stewed fruits complemented by spices—pepper, turmeric, nutmeg, mint, ginger… Roasted pineapple lingers in the aftertaste. Comments: I forgot to mention the honeyed side. This is very good, with active oak, no doubt about it. Glad to see Scapa back! 85 points - whiskyfun.com

$64. 99
Bottle
$779.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Other reviews... part of the Signature blends which include the Barbados 5, the XO, Grand Anejo and Xaymaca — these are what one might infer are entry level rums for the curious (to call them ‘premium’ would be a stretch). They are neither bartenders’ mixing staples like the Three Star, OFTD or Original Dark, nor expensive limited editions like the upscale Extreme, Single Cask or Vintage series, and exist in a kind of everyman’s universe where “reasonableness” is the watchword. It goes down easy without reaching and that may be the key observation. Overall, it’s a relatively simple rum compared to others I’ve had (including some from Plantation themselves), yet a rum one can, with care and lowered expectations, have neat without too many issues. To be honest, I thought the rum was better than it had a right to be considering the sweetening Plantation is known for... For someone now getting into rum, it’s serviceable and they could use it as a stepping stone to get more into the field, though for getting into the Barbados style it’s useless, so forget that aspect. Those with more experience can use it as a bellwether for what to look for in Plantation’s successively more upscale (and expensive) offerings; and for those who’re really into rums, well, there’s not much to say to them, since they already know all there is to know. - thelonecaner.com
... From just before Plantation became Planteray, for reasons that remain a little unclear to us—though seemingly a bit on the ‘woke’ side. We’ve nothing against wokism, of course, but we do rather like balance in all things and tend to think anything excessive becomes trivial. ‘Does ‘habitation’ still work by the way? Right then, shall we have a taste?... This must be from W.I.R.D., owned by the same fine folks. Colour: white wine. Nose: cooked sugar verging on ‘petit boulé’, sugarcane syrup and a generous splash of orgeat, with a few fluttering florals hovering about—white clover in particular, adding a faint pastoral lift. Mouth: pleasant at first, but the sweetness does rather take over. Think Malibu laced with molasses honey and sweet woodruff cordial. Finish: medium in length, gentle and sugary, with no real parting bite. Comments: clearly meant to be served over a good handful of ice, ideally dragged down to 8°C or so. In that context, it might even do the trick. At room temperature, however, it's a different story altogether. 70 points - whiskyfun.com

Scapa 16 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Orkney Islands, SCOTLAND
Reduced from $399.00
$229. 99
Bottle
$2759.88 Dozen

ABV: 48%

Off the market for several years, this island gem is finally back sporting new packaging. Located on the mainland of Orkney, one of a group of islands off Scotland's northern coast, also home to one of Scotland's most revered distilleries, Highland Park. Scapa's unique flavour profile has been attributed to their water source, one that contains peat, but also involves a comprehensive pipe system from source to distillery which reduces exposure to contaminants on the water's journey. Scapa's barley is malted without the use of peat smoke, yet some peat influence can be found, though not in a smoky form, rather it comes across as added depth, richness or sweetness. Because it's matured in warehouses close to the sea, in some minds this contributes to its salty tang.
Following Pernod Ricard's change of direction for the brand, what was once a charming and unusual whisky was re-positioned as a "luxury" label, heavily filtered and bottled at an entry level ABV while proudly proclaiming it's bold and smooth characteristics. For some, this new styled Scapa was appealing, for others, a tragedy. Hopefully the latest incarnation bottled at 48% will help to reinvigorate the brand.
Other reviews... Same elements, same battle, same manoeuvre here, with active American oak. I quite like that they seem to aim to preserve a ‘house style’ across multiple expressions rather than veering off in all directions (cabernet, PX, IPA, merlot, mizunara—you get the idea). Colour: gold. Nose: this is rather amusing, as you really feel like you’re standing in front of the same whisky, just six years older. It’s therefore rounder, more on exotic fruit preserves (banana and mango), orange blossom, honeysuckle, marmalade, but also beach sand and a hint of ‘old cellar’. Very pretty, with even a touch of ‘oceanic melon’ à la B’laddich. Mouth: same sensations, almost a concentrated version of the 10-year-old in every dimension. Beautiful notes of quince paste, oranges, and citron. Careful—high drinkability index. Finish: long, lovely, on candied fruits (orange zest) with a touch of liquorice and mint. Comments: I find this really very good. Give this one some of your precious time, you do get a bit of active white oak, but you have to look for it. 87 points - whiskyfun.com
40% ABV bottling tasted... Attractive pale gold appearance. The aroma is almost floral offering up soft scents of dilute honey and a cantaloupe like fruitiness, anticipating an easy going whisky - which this is. Plenty of honeyed malt on entry leads into a medium bodied profile featuring stone fruits, dilute honey, hints of marzipan and cocoa. Gently spicy, buttery mouthfeel on the finish. Aftertaste is clean and deliciously fresh though somewhat brief, fading with traces of toasty malt, dried fruits, hints of brine and soft spices. A departure from the brawnier Scapa we fell in love with a decade ago.

Bushmills 14 Year Old Single Malt Irish Whiskey (700ml)

County Antrim, IRELAND
Reduced from $139.99

Bottle
$1439.88 Dozen

ABV: 40%

Matured in first and second-fill bourbon barrels for a minimum of 14 years, including a finish of up to 12 months in Malaga wine casks to give a luscious exotic fruit intensity and beautiful smoothness. The fruit intensity from the Malaga casks is said to further enhance the whiskey's latent sweetness.
Says Alex Thomas, Master Blender at Bushmills, "I wanted to step out of my comfort zone and create a really exciting taste experience for every palate. It is unlike any other whisky in our core range. Marrying the bourbon cask with the Malaga wine adds layers of ripe fruit all working together with honey, cinnamon, and milk chocolate. It oozes sunshine and sweetness. Having followed the evolution of this 14-year-old spirit, I knew its exceptional quality was undeniable. I also have a lot of experience with Muscat of Alexandria, the grape variety carefully chosen to produce the Malaga wine we use to season our oak barrels. Wine lovers will know this is one of the oldest grapes in the world and produces incredible flavour profiles." 40% Alc./Vol.

A blend of 60% Shiraz and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon matured in American and French oak barriques for 20 months. The name ‘Bernoota’ was the original name given to the homestead on the Lake Breeze property – it is Aboriginal for ‘camp among the gum trees’. First made in 1992 the Bernoota has an extraordinary show record with just about every vintage having won at least one gold medal.
Midnight black heart with a deep dark purple black tinged hue. Ripe blackberry, liquorice and blackcurrant aromas are drawn through the nostrils with plenty of intensity followed by some choc mint, vanillin oak and subtle spicy earth notes. Rich, plush dark plum, liquorice and blackberry fruits adorn the medium to full bodied palate with choc mint, vanillin cedar and spice elements unfolding across the back half. Polished tannins with a fleshy, amply powered conclusion laden with juicy fruit.

Grown on vines with an average age of 40 years. Matured initially in all-American oak (20% new) and then transferred to a mix of American and French oak (20 months total in barrel); 60/40 blend in cabernet's favour. It's a rich, luscious wine, blackcurrant flavours tumbling through vanilla and mint, tobacco notes made cuddlier by the general creamy softness of the palate. No Aussie red-wine drinker will be left disappointed. Drink by 2032.

Highlands, SCOTLAND
$159. 99
Bottle
$1919.88 Dozen

ABV: 57.1%

A baby malt from a very new distillery founded in 2017. Nc’nean is located within the Drimnin Estate on a remote west Highland peninsula with spectacular views over Mull and Tobermory. The name is an abbreviation of 'Neachneohain', which translates as 'Queen of Spirits' from Gaelic. This deeply coloured expression from Watt Whisky was STR matured (that refers to casks that have been shaved, toasted and re-charred). The outturn was 282 bottles at 57.1% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Other reviews... Mouth: quite strong, with caramel notes and generous amounts of oak spice. Pepper, cinnamon, oranges, more plums. A bit of a rough edge, with salty notes and a brief moment of alcohol heat. Candied ginger syrup, drops of clove oil and toasted oak, with a slightly tannic edge. Finish: medium and sweet, balancing citrus and oak spice. Very modern and spicy whisky, with a wood influence that I find too obvious, too contrived. STR casks are always a bit tricky and I think other distilleries are mastering them better. - whiskynotes.be
...Nose: The STR cask is in the driver’s seat.... Taste: Big whisky. Or intense more like. Lots of pepper, cloves and oak spices in general. There’s a touch of fudge, but also a slight vinous edge. Then oranges, apricots and more charred oak, followed by chillies and a soft aniseed-y note... It relies a lot on the STR cask, and I'm not sure that is a good thing. - wordsofwhisky.com
Notes from the bottlers... Lots of toffee, peanut brittle, plums, cinnamon balls and charred oak.

ABV: 57.7%

Named after the town it's situated in, Girvan is William Grant & Sons behemoth, ranking as one of the largest facilities in Scotland. Three decades is usually about what it takes to see its whisky blossom. In this case, the bouquet is reticent; dryish with aromas of vanilla, salted caramel, sponge cake and spent bourbon barrels. Wait long enough and it fattens up like a buttery Chardonnay. In the mouth it's more luxurious and revealing, particularly tasted after fifteen minutes in the glass. The ABV is remarkably high for a thirty year old, yet the entry is light and deceptive leading into ripe cantaloupe and cream flavours, the sugars rallying towards the finish, tempered by bittersweet dark chocolate and tannins. At the heavier end of the grain spectrum though remains poised. You don't need much water to accent a honeycombe thread, transforming it into something akin to a very refined, very old column still rum. 57.7% Alc./Vol. 166 bottles from an x-Bourbon cask.
