2024 Brave Souls The Whaler Shiraz

Barossa Valley, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
$22. 99
Bottle
$275.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 6 Years (2026-2032)

ABV: 14.5%

Closure: Stelvin

The Whaler is a blend of Barossa Valley (85%) and Eden Valley (15%) fruit. The Barossa Valley fruit was harvested from vineyards located within the sub-regions of Moppa, Trial Hill and Vine Vale. Grapes from the cooler Eden Valley are sourced from two vineyards situated at either end of the valley, in Moculta and Craneford.
The Barossa Valley component providing fleshy dark berry fruit characters and density, while the Eden Valley component contributes elegance and bright wild berry fruited aromatic lift. A small percentage of whole bunch fruit was included in the ferment with maturation taking place in a mix of new and seasoned hogsheads for a period of 14 months.
Rich, plump and power packed, this is a super impressive Barossa Shiraz for the price.
Impenetrable inky black in colour with a deep dark purple black tinged hue. Engulfing the nostrils are pronounced aromas of dark plum, liquorice and blackberry which are complimented by some vanillin cedar, scorched earth and peppered fennel notes. Rich, concentrated and plush, lashings of super succulent dark plum, liquorice, blackberry and black cherry fruits saturate the full bodied palate. Lurking underneath are vanillin cedar, fennel and peppered earth elements. Power packed and plump it has silky smooth tannins and a long opulent finish that’s bordering on voluptuous.

Other Reviews…..
We're only two wines in – last year's Westgate Syrah was the inaugural release – but already it seems as though we have a new star of Australian wine on our hands. This wine is both complex and delicious, its graphite and garrigue characters wrapped in pure plum and bright red cherry; its twig and herb notes infused with woodsmoke and cedar. It's both structured and juicy, and it makes complexity look easy. Drink by 2037.

White Heather 15 Year Old Blended Scotch Whisky (700ml)

SCOTLAND
$99. 99
Bottle
$1199.88 Dozen

ABV: 46%

"Love blends when the grain don't feel at all – and when the woods behaved, which was the case here. Super good." - whiskyfun.com
An old whisky label, revived in 2022 with the release of a 21 year old. The White Heather brand was discontinued in the 1980s as the industry consolidated. It was subsequently acquired by Glenallachie in 2017, along with the MacNair’s Lum Reek Blended Malt brand. Master Blender, Billy Walker has put his own unique spin on White Heather, sourcing single malt and grain whiskies from the Highlands, Islay and Speyside. The new 15 Year Old contains both peated and unpeated malts along with grain whisky, however the malt content is on the higher side at a considerable 47 percent. After time in sherry butts and American oak barrels, the blend was re-racked into Pedro Ximénez and Oloroso Sherry puncheons as well as American virgin oak casks for an additional three years. Also notable is the fact that it was bottled at 46% without chill filtration, which is unusual for a blend.
“This has been a real passion project for me”, says Walker. “It takes me back to my first forays in the industry and allows me to select and blend whiskies from across Scotland in order to achieve the intended flavour profile. I hold a strong belief that interest in the Premium Blend category is growing, and we very much want to be at the forefront of it with White Heather.”
Other reviews... Billy Walker and gang, when they bought Glenallachie, also got this legendary old brand the Aberlour folks had been taken care of in the 1950s and 1960s. Those old square bottles of White Heather, with their white labels and even when young (5, 8) were just stunning and up there with the very best blends ever bottled. This new White Heather shelters different whiskies, naturally, but the proportion of malt remains very high (47%). The Northern Highlands are having the upper hand. The whole has been finished for three years – so rather second maturation - in active casks (PX, oloroso, virgin American oak). Colour: apricot gold. Nose: malty indeed, and rather in the stye of the lovely Hive, with some honey, pancake sauce, even icewine, sweet flowers (buddleia, mullein, white clover…), a little sweet rum, some raisins, triple-sec… and guess what, no obvious grain. But grain's pretty silent anyway, is it not. There's a little Islay inside but I do not get it (while some charming person at the parent company doesn't seem to get it either). Was it Bunnahabhain? Bruichladdich? Mouth: still malty, very classic, on more pancake syrup, butterscotch, millionaire shortbread, vanilla cake, marzipan and macaroons, nougat, beeswax (here we go again)… And just a tiny salty tang that may, or may not, suggest some 'peat'. Finish: medium, rather more coastal indeed. A little ginger, honey, and something a little Orkney-y. Lemon in the aftertaste. Comments: love blends when the grain don't feel at all – and when the woods behaved, which was the case here. Super good. We'll try a bunch of Glenallachies soon, by the way. 86 points - whiskyfun.com
...Not having benefitted from tasting it head-to-head with its older brother, I'll carefully state that the White Heather 15 Years sits at an equally high level. And maybe I would even prefer it, but not by enough to actually give it a higher rating. This is a well-balanced, easy sipper without it ever becoming monotonous. - wordsofwhisky.com

Jeez, Jesse has found its groove of late and this is another excellent one. It’s flinty, with moreish sulphides (not too much, just the right amount). It’s all citrusy, spicy and vivacious, with mouth-watering acidity. Next some appealing cedary oak and lemon curd lees fill the palate. This is quite a linear, tight style and so delicious as a result. Drink by 2032.

Gabriel Boudier Liqueur de Poire (Pear) Liqueur (700ml)

Burgundy, FRANCE
$69. 99
Bottle
$839.88 Dozen

ABV: 30%

Gabriel Boudier's experience as both a liquorist and distiller are called upon to create this iconic liqueur. A part of the pear is distilled in order to obtain the most volatile aromas. The other part of the William Pear is cut in two, the wood and the seeds removed, and the flesh macerated for five weeks in alcohol. The process is followed by a sweetening. This fragrant liqueur offers up the natural scent of very ripe orchard fruit, taking an even sweeter turn on the palate where sugar-drizzled poached pears lead into fruit confectionery. Pair it with gin or vodka in a fruity spritz, or use it to elevate desserts like a pear tart or Poire Belle-Hélène. 30% Alc./Vol.

Boatrocker Alpha Beer 7 Year Old Australian Whisky (500ml)

Victoria, AUSTRALIA
$99. 99
Bottle
$1199.88 Dozen

ABV: 50%

Back in 2019, Boatrocker distilled their flagship Alpha Queen American-hopped Pale Ale. After seven years in a first-fill Buffalo Trace cask, it was bottled at high strength to preserve the vibrant aromatics. The delightful fruity, hoppy pick-up on the nose carries through to the palate. You can almost sense the fizziness and bitter fruitiness of the pale ale through the piney finish, while the Bourbon barrel adds a light vanilla creaminess. No gimmick. Just one of the most engaging, refreshing and distinctively beer inspired whiskies you're ever likely to try.
Notes from the producers... On the nose: heady honeysuckle and ripe gooseberry with citrus zest and fresh green hops. The palate is silky and balanced, waves of stone fruit and floral sweetness followed by a gentle peppery spice and herbal hop lift. The finish brings classic whisky warmth with that bright, lingering hop bite beer lovers will adore. Perfect neat, with a large cube of ice, or in a premium cocktail.

2025 Tapanappa Tiers Vineyard 1.5m Chardonnay

Piccadilly Valley, Adelaide Hills, South Australia, AUSTRALIA
$84. 99
Bottle
$1019.88 Dozen

Cellar: Drink now - 8 Years (2026-2034)

ABV: 13.6%

Closure: Stelvin

Rich, concentrated and texturally voluminous yet fresh with a long flinty edged finish.
In 2003, the Croser family removed 1.3 hectares of the original Tiers Vineyard Chardonnay that was planted in 1979 in the Piccadilly Valley as the first Adelaide Hills vineyard. The area was replanted with the French Bernard clones 76 and 95 on rootstocks, on very close 1.5 metre row spacing with the fruiting wire at only 0.5 metres above the ground. This unique vineyard section produces earlier ripening, fuller flavoured Chardonnay than the old vine Chardonnay on its own roots, across the centre road in Tiers Vineyard.
Brilliant pale straw colour with green toned edges and a watery hue. Refined yet amplified in their intensity are aromas of white peach and nectarine which are married to roasted almond, biscuity nougat and gun flint notes. Rich, concentrated and texturally voluminous yet showing impressive freshness, the mid weighted palate is graced with nectarine, white peach, dried honey and biscuity oak flavours. Infusions of mineral flint, citrusy nougat and almond sit in the background. Lively yet perfectly balanced acidity with a long flinty edged finish that picks up a gentle creaminess texture wise.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.

Other Reviews….
This was a product of a very hot, dry vintage, which tested all of Brian Croser’s immense experience. Yet the wine captures very much about what this particular vineyard in the Piccadilly Valley is all about. On the nose, there are notes of very subtle lemon curd and brioche with a spicy complexity. On the palate, there is a textural richness that combines some nice, sweet fruit characters with an edgy, grapefruit acidity, and a further quince paste, vanilla pod-like influence. The finish delivers with a very subtle savory note and distinct minerality that completes what is a very good wine. Drink 2026-2038.

Ray Jordan – WinePilot.com
Brian Croser has noted the 2025 vintage as the warmest, driest and earliest in his career, a career which stretches back for more than fifty years. However, any concerns that his iconic Chardonnays from the Tiers Vineyard would not reflect the typicity that they have come to enjoy over many years has been put to rest. The section of the Tiers Vineyard which was replanted in 2003 on 1.5 metre spacing ripens earlier than the older vines, the reminder of the Tiers. Fermentation was in French oak barriques, 1/3rd of them new. The wine was then left on lees before bottling. 575 dozen made. The colour is a shimmering yellow gold. The nose reveals ripe, full flavours of stone fruits, with nectarines, peaches, hints of honeycomb and hazelnuts, florals and jasmine. There is noticeable oak but integration is proceeding well. The wine has superb balance and real intensity with great persistence. It will surely still be providing immense pleasure in a decade. Love it. Drink 2026-2036.

Ken Gargett – WinePilot.com
Quite the potency to this chardonnay, so too a distinct saline minerality. Scents and flavours of toffee apple, lemongrass, preserved lemon and green apple juice with dashes of sugared almond and flinty, stony notes. Lots going on here and, while concentrated and somewhat power-packed, this has a levity and finesse that helps the wine glide along confidently. Serious white wine territory.

2025 Tapanappa Tiers Vineyard Chardonnay

$95. 00
Bottle
$1140.00 Dozen

ABV: 100%

Closure: Stelvin

Finely detailed and restrained with chalky mineral infused acidity lending a tense feel across the long flinty finish.
Located in the Piccadilly Valley within the Adelaide Hills region, Brian Croser’s Tiers vineyard was planted in 1979 making it the first in the region. It is perfectly suited to Chardonnay being a closely matched homo-clime of Burgundy, especially the southern end of the Cotes de Beaune where the great wines of Montrachet and Meursault are grown. Fermented in French oak barriques (one third new) the wine was then aged on full lees until November 2025.
Brilliant pale straw colour with green tinted edges and a watery hue. Elevated nectarine and pear scents intermix with roasted almond, subtle biscuity nougat, faint lemon butter and gun flint notes. Showing a touch more elegance and restraint than the 2025 Tapanappa Tiers Vineyard 1.5m Chardonnay, the palate is finely detailed with pear and nectarine fruits which meld into a subtle dried honey, roasted almond, citrusy nougat and mineral flint back drop. Showing good mid palate flesh, chalky mineral infused acidity lends a tense feel across the long flinty finish.
Drink over the next 6-8 years.

Other Reviews….
One Australia’s more famous Chardonnays and certainly one which influenced many wines which followed it. The vineyard was originally planted in 1979. Despite the unique conditions for this vintage, the yield was around average, at seven tonnes per hectare. Fermentation was in French oak barriques, with 1/3rd of them new, before spending time on lees until it was bottled. 1,150 dozen made. If Brian had any concerns as to whether the unique conditions would impact adversely on this wine, the evidence in bottle is very much to the contrary. Pale yellow/gold in colour, there is immediate evidence of the complexity already building. There is serious concentration and laser-like focus here. The nose gives us aromas weaving through grilled cashews, nectarines, oatmeal, stone fruits and hazelnuts. The oak integration is immaculate. A wine of such length and balance, it surely has a thrilling future. Enjoy it over the next fifty years, but will cellar well and should go further if one has the patience. Good luck finding a White Burgundy of this quality at this price. Stunning stuff. Drink 2026-2076.

This is upper-class stuff. This has a silky, rich texture but sits at medium weight, a sheen of saline minerality, a light pucker of chalk and pumice stone, green apple, light brioche notes, faint candied citrus characters and a very lengthy trail of sweet spice and a dash of coconut bun happening, too. Through all of this, a zesty core of brine and lemony zing, refreshing things aptly. A lot going on in this larger-than-life wine, offering a full experience. And very good for it. Drink by 2032.

Mike Bennie - James Halliday’s Australian Wine Companion
The fruit flavours feel ripe, there’s complexity aplenty, flint notes make the nose feel especially lively and the push of fruit through the finish has plenty of extras. This is an excellent chardonnay at the least; if not outstanding. It tastes of nectarine, grapefruit, sweet citrus, flint and nougat and from start to finish it really sings. Texture-wise it’s really quite beautiful too. Super wine. Drink 2026-2032+

This hits the spot, not least at its price point. It has flavour, but it also has some snap to it. I’m thinking cherry, spice, a little cedar, herb and perfume. The tannin sits confidently within the wine, not too much, not too little, and there’s brightness, energy, and good length to boot. Lovely wine. Recommended. Drink 2026-2032.

From the rolling hills north-east of Adelaide in what’s known as the One Tree Hill district, we get a pretty ballsy Sangio with a decent whack of oak impact on first opening – not surprising as a result of 15 months maturation in French and American barrels, new and seasoned, the latter source letting itself known in the bouquet. The fruit is quite jubey, crimson and black berried, finishing with timbery and grippy tannins. Will definitely satisfy those who like their oaked-style wines and will perform a treat with a serious cut of beef.

Richly fruited and seductively complex, the wine shows dark fruit intensity, star anise, smoked meat, and cedar characters on the nose. It’s concentrated and plush on the palate, delivering excellent weight and velvety texture, wonderfully framed by layers of polished tannins, finishing impressively long and sturdy. At its best: now to 2038.

Sam Kim – Wine Orbit
Deep, inky crimson with a dense core. The aroma is concentrated, showing blackberry, dark plum and black cherry with notes of spice, dark chocolate and integrated oak. Full-bodied and powerful, the palate delivers concentrated black fruit with depth and intensity. Sourced from Eden Valley and the Barossa floor, it balances richness and structure, with firm, ripe tannins providing a strong framework. Oak is well integrated, bringing mocha, spice and roasted nut complexity through the mid-palate. The finish is long and persistent, with excellent structure and ageing potential.
A commanding Barossa Shiraz combining power, structure and regional depth. Drink now to 2038.

Vino Masters
This boutique little winery in the Barossa continually produces some of the most interesting and impressive wines from this region. In this case, it’s a combination of the cooler Eden Valley spicy, peppery influence with the darker rich fruits of the valley floor. This is an intense and concentrated wine delivered on a full body. Yet it retains a vibrant liveliness thanks to its acidity and bright fruit characters. It brings together slightly vanilla oak, spice and dark fruit characters into a compelling combination. It’s an intense and concentrated wine that will continue to evolve over the next fifteen years. Drink 2026-2041.

Ardnahoe Bholsa Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Islay, SCOTLAND
$139. 99
Bottle
$1679.88 Dozen

ABV: 50%

If you enjoy peated whiskies that balance savoury smoke with dark fruits, this richly sherried Islay should be for you. Named after a series of caves on the northwest coast of Islay, it's the latest instalment from Hunter Laing's new project that's making waves for Island whisky fans. Oloroso works well to temper some of the slightly 'green' notes found in the cask-strength bourbon-matured expression; Lanolin, dried citrus peel, ashy peat and brine make for an intense yet approachable dram that reverberates coastal character. Bottled at 50% ABV with no chill filtration.
Other reviews... I mean, it’s matured ‘predominantly’ in oloroso, which does feel a tad lord Black Adder, does it not? A ‘bholsa’, in Gaelic, seems to mean a bag, it may stem from the French word ‘bourse’, or perhaps from the Spanish ‘bolsa’, also meaning bag. Who knows, the ways of distillers are impenetrable… Colour: gold. Nose: but of course. Ardnahoe has been remarkably quick to express its Islayness (aye?) and to make sure its whisky oozes (aye again?) the island. Very fresh, with a nod to its neighbour across from the Paps of Jura, offering peated grist, virgin wool and soot. With water: grapefruit and chalk. Mouth (neat): rather perfect, though absolutely crammed with ashes. With water: the oloroso still sits high, though it’s true there’s only some of it, and only ‘predominantly’. From 51% upwards, that’s predominant, isn’t it? This terminology may go down in the annals of malt whisky history, I tell you (right?) Finish: fresh, long, uplifting and, indeed, exuding Islay. Pears, lemons, oysters and tar in the aftertaste. Comments: I think this is very well done, even if one tends to still lean toward the ‘predominantly natural’ versions. 87 points - whiskyfun.com
...Much like when one knows they are in the presence of an Ivy League business school graduate or fan of Kid Rock, this has zero qualms declaring its bona fides right from the onset: Islay peat arrives loud and fast, joined by char and a bright flick of lemon zest. Give it a moment, and hints of campfire smoke and just enough citrus stretch out and amplify. A few drops of water deliver more of the sherry influence, so add gradually to preference. The palate leans sweeter than expected at first, with raisins and dates running point before smoke, char, and citrus reassert control. The drops of water introduce unexpected notes of tar and dark chocolate. The finish runs long, smoky, and saline, tapering off on lemon and sea air. Although there’s no way to be certain on the age statement, this feels slightly younger than the Inaugural Release... There’s also a suspicion this will soften with time as more air enters the bottle. - drinkhacker.com
Notes from the producers... Red fruits, walnuts, orange zest and peat smoke on the nose. Raisins, dates and ripe plums on the palate underpinned by Islay peat lead into a long, peppery finish.

Suntory Yamazaki Mizunara Oak Cask 18 Year Old Single Malt Japanese Whisky (700ml) - 100th Anniversary Edition

JAPAN
$2999. 00
Bottle
$35988.00 Dozen

ABV: 48%

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

A release that only comes around once in a blue moon, Yamazaki's 18 year old Mizunara cask has been described as the ultimate Japanese whisky. Showcasing everything learned about the best way to pair their whisky with Japanese Oak, Suntory have created a deep and multi-layered experience which brings ripe stone fruits and elegant spice character together in a way that can only be described as harmonious. The occasion was marked for their 100th anniversary in 2022, preemptively, as the distillery opened in 1923. 48% Alc./Vol. Collectible.

Master blender Shinji Fukuyo creates his annual masterpiece from whiskies 18 years and up, with a small portion exceeding 50 years of age. All components were matured in casks made from Japan's native oak, the 'Mizunara'.

Suntory began to experiment with the indigenous oak after the Second World War, when supplies of foreign oak were difficult to source. It made a far from ideal vessel, Mizunara's loose grains tended to cause leakage and also created challenges in terms of timber selection and cooperage. Blenders at the time had few kind words to say about the wood. Decades later, the tree is better understood, and the hints of incense, sandalwood, and aloeswood it imparts to whisky are prized. The oak releases these qualities after decades rather than years, making the whiskies they mature all the more precious.

The Real Review
You can’t do much Bekkers than this.
This is a full-bodied red wine with complexity served neat and structure planted firm. It’s as commanding as it is beguiling. It tastes of blue and black berries, licorice, seaweed, smoked-liquid-cedar and toast, and while I think there’s some positive reduction at play here too it’s difficult to tell; it may just be the way the smokiness of the oak has teamed with the seaweed-side of the fruit. No matter. The effect is mesmerising; the cups of flavour runneth into sheets of brilliant, mineral-strewn tannin, atmospheric smoke on the rise, all manner of goings on rumbling in the background. It’s a wonderful wine. Drink 2025-2035+

Campbell Mattinson – The Wine Front
The 2021 Syrah is supple, dark and spicy, and gives me all the detail and presence I was hoping for from the excellent 2021 vintage. The tannins in the mouth emphasize the black fruit, and it pulls together as a seamless, cohesive whole, even at this very young/early stage in its life. This is much more open-weaved and approachable than the Clarendon Syrah tasted next to it. Perhaps this speaks more of attraction and seduction up front. The fruit is sourced from three parcels—41% Clarendon (with one parcel at 194-242 meters above seal level) and 59% Seaview (with one parcel at 102-110 meters above seal level). You can see from the elevations that the Clarendon area is hilly and elevated (and beautiful!)—this is obvious when you visit. There was around 30% whole bunches in the mix this year, and it had a wild ferment and matured in French oak puncheons (500 liters, 47% new) until bottling in December 2022. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap. Drink 2023-2043.

ABV: 13%

Closure: Cork

Lousas is the name Envintate has given to their wines from Ribeira Sacra, translating to slate and a nod to the rock that marks these wines. Each of their Lousas releases are predominantly Mencia, along with a smaller component of various indigenous varieties such as Merenzao, Caino, Garnacha Tintorerra, and Palomino among many others.
Vina de Aldea is a blend of several plots from the Amandi, Quiroga, and Ribeiras do Sil subregions of Ribeira Sacra. Doad meanwhile hails from different terroirs throughout the Galician town of Doade, is Mencia dominant with the remaining 15% a field blend of various varieties. Rosende is sourced from a single vineyard from a village of the same name, and the soils here are similar to the Northern Rhone with granite crystals flecked through the sand. Finally the single vinyard pair of Seoane and Camino Novo perched on the edge of the River Sil, each featuring vines over 80 years old. While similarly located these two are very different in style, Seoane being the more lifted, elegant and immediately attractive, whereas Camino Novo is more brooding and often one of the most profound Mencia in the area.

Herbal, bloody and ferrous, with dark and wild berries. The palate is medium-bodied with focused, nervy tannins and incisive acidity, showing a more mellow profile than the 2023, with a fluid, slightly more ethereal expression of fruit. From multiple plots in Amandi, Quiroga and the Miño area, each vinified separately with varying proportions of whole bunches. Aged mostly in barrique with a smaller proportion in cement.

Doad meanwhile hails from different terroirs throughout the Galician town of Doade, is Mencia dominant with the remaining 15% a field blend of various varieties. Rosende is sourced from a single vineyard from a village of the same name, and the soils here are similar to the Northern Rhone with granite crystals flecked through the sand. Finally the single vinyard pair of Seoane and Camino Novo perched on the edge of the River Sil, each featuring vines over 80 years old. While similarly located these two are very different in style, Seoane being the more lifted, elegant and immediately attractive, whereas Camino Novo is more brooding and often one of the most profound Mencia in the area.
Other Reviews...
Ferric, asphalt with wild berries and a pleasant herbal touch. The palate is medium-bodied, detailed, with subtle fruit, focused tannins and linear brightness to complement. This comes from a single vineyard planted on the banks of the Sil river in the upper part of Doade. Drink or hold.

2024 Envinate Parcela Palo Blanco

Tenerife, SPAIN
$81. 99
Bottle
$983.88 Dozen

ABV: 12%

Closure: Cork

Migan and Palo Blanco are both very old vine wines from the Valle de la Orotava zone, although they don’t bear the D.O. stamp. The old vines are trained in the Trezendo fashion: braiding new shoots over older ones until the vines begin to resemble old dreadlocks weaving over the landscape. The terrain is flatter than Táganan, more conducive to farming. Migan is two parcels of Listan Negro, both over 100 years old, while Palo Blanco is a single vineyard from the town of Los Realejos planted on black volcanic soils.
Other Reviews...
The 2024 Palo Blanco was a little difficult to taste, as the nose seemed to have been suffering a little from the recent bottling. It fermented in concrete without temperature control, and then most of the wine matured in foudre and the rest in 350-liter used barrels. The year was quite homogeneous in the zone for the whites, they got very good yields and balanced wines. The palate is stunning—chalky but with elegance. The roots from the centenary cordon trenzado vines seem to have extracted all the minerality from the soils, and the wine is eminently stony. This is not a small cuvée: they produced some 13,000 bottles of this. It was bottled in July 2025. Drink 2025-2033.

The nose here brings saline, like brine, with a touch of grapefruit and a wet rope-like aroma. The palate is equally saline and absorbing, with brilliant linear acidity and an incredible saline finish. From extremely old vines trained in cordon trenzado, a unique form of braided trellising in the northern part of Tenerife. This ferments in concrete tanks and ages in 2500-liter foudre. Exceptional. Drink or hold.

2024 Envinate Parcela Palo Blanco Las Molinas

Tenerife, SPAIN
$185. 00
Bottle
$2220.00 Dozen

ABV: 12%

Closure: Cork

Migan and Palo Blanco are both very old vine wines from the Valle de la Orotava zone, although they don’t bear the D.O. stamp. The old vines are trained in the Trezendo fashion: braiding new shoots over older ones until the vines begin to resemble old dreadlocks weaving over the landscape. The terrain is flatter than Táganan, more conducive to farming. 2023 Las Molinas is the second vintage of this single parcel wine from a centenarian plot of ungrafted, pre-phylloxera vines that had formerly been included in the Palo Blanco bottling. Fermented and aged in a single neutral oak foudre of 2500 liters.
Other Reviews...
The 2024 Palo Blanco Las Molinas comes from a year with a homogeneous and normal production and also homogeneous ripeness. The wine is healthy and clean, and it achieved very good ripeness and kept very good freshness. It matured in a 20-year-old Italian foudre where it went through full malolactic. It's still a baby, with a bright and pale color and a slightly reductive nose, which I guess is a bit dizzy from the recent bottling. It has notes of struck match and a core of dry herbs, spices and flowers. It comes in at 12% alcohol, with a pH of 3.2 and 7.32 grams of acidity. It is vibrant and pungent, with great depth and complexity. It is long, dry and tasty, with a strong mineral sensation in the finish that is crunchy and salty. This should age magnificently in bottle. 2,000 bottles produced, a little less than in 2023, but they used more of this for the regular Palo Blanco blend. This It was bottled in July 2025. Drink 2025-2034.

This has a very unique nose, with a citric lime-like element, a subtle toasty note as well as a wet stone, austere-like note. The palate is vibrant and austere but with a touch of flesh, complemented by a saline, nervy note. Despite being austere, it is almost mouthwatering. Vibrant, saline and with a subtle, almost ethereal quality as well. This comes from a small parcel of centenary listan blanco in Los Realejos. Whole-cluster press, fermentation in concrete and aging in 2500 L foudre. Drink or hold.

2024 Envinate La Santa de Ursula Tinto

Tenerife, SPAIN
$81. 99
Bottle
$983.88 Dozen

ABV: 12%

Closure: Cork

La Santa de Ursula is a new bottling from the northeast coast of Tenerife in an area called La Carujera, part of the Tacoronte-Acentejo appellation. It’s a blend of three parcels of 100+ year old vines planted on sandy clay over red basalt bedrock, situated between 350m and 650m above sea level. The blend is 48% Negramoll, 50% Listán Negro, and 2% Listán Blanco, which are vinified partially with whole clusters in cement and aged in small neutral oak barrels. Bottling is without fining or filtration, and only a small addition of sulfur.
Other Reviews...
The 2024 La Santa de Úrsula has to be the finest vintage for this red from the zone of Tacoronte-Acentejo, and this year, it breaks down to 77% Listán Negro, 20% Negramoll and 3% Listán Blanco. There was a fire in the zone in 2023, and 2024 was dry and healthy—it's a humid zone that's prone to illnesses—with a good yield (10% less than in 2023) and balance. The wine has a perfumed nose, with high aromatic intensity and the spiciness that is so classical here, with depth and complexity. It comes in at 12% alcohol, with a pH of 3.33 and 6.18 grams of acidity. It has a medium-bodied palate with fine tannins, and it is stony and serious, with more elegance and finesse, like an improved version of 2021. 5,700 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2025. Drink 2026-2032.

This has a very attractive nose of pepper, burnt sesame seed and crunchy wild berries with a herbal touch. Medium-bodied with stimulating acidity, fresh and vibrant, with nervy tannins. Ethereal with a savory touch. A blend of 48% negramoll, 50% listan negro and 2% listan blanco. Drink now.

2024 Envinate Taganan Parcela Margalagua Tinto

Tenerife, SPAIN
$185. 00
Bottle
$2220.00 Dozen

ABV: 12%

Closure: Cork

Táganan is both the name of a village on the very north eastern tip of Tenerife and a local term for steep slope. Envínate make two reds and two whites from this village; Táganan Tinto and Blanco, which come from multiple old parcels and two crus, parcelas Campanario and Margalagua. All the wines are field blends containing a dizzying array of obscure local varieties grown on very old bush vines in the steep volcanic soils overlooking the ocean.
Other Reviews...
The 2024 Táganan Parcela Margalagua starts quite closed and is subtler. They have fine-tuned the work in the vineyard and with the lees, and the wines have gained in precision and complexity. 2024 is a lighter vintage than 2023, and the wine has an ethereal character that I like very much. This comes from red basalt soils with more iron but with a sandy texture that gives finesse, and it comes from ancient vines, a field blend with mostly Negramoll and Listán Negro and 10% Listán Blanco. In 2024, they fermented it with 100% full clusters and no temperature control in concrete with around 25 to 28 days of maceration, and the wine matured in neutral 228-liter barrels for nine months without racking or sulfur, during which time it went through malolactic fermentation. It opens up to elegant floral aromas and the textbook descriptors (dry rose petals, black peppercorns and wet pumice stone) in a subtle and balanced way. 1,800 bottles were filled in July 2025. Drink 2026-2036.

Springbank Fino Sherry Cask Matured 10 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky (700ml)

Campbeltown, SCOTLAND
$599. 00
Bottle
$7188.00 Dozen

ABV: 55%

We're fast approaching the end of Springbank’s five part Sherry Series, with just the 10 Year Old Manzanilla left to be released. This, the fourth instalment was matured for ten years in total, four years in bourbon casks followed by six years in Fino (dry) sherry casks. Distilled in 2015, 11,400 bottles were released at 55% Alc./Vol. Non chill filtered.
Other reviews... Fino can be very specific, and its influence is relatively mild compared to say, Oloroso or Pedro Ximénez. That's a good thing here. It might have added to the saline character, but left plenty of room for Springbank's DNA to shine. - wordsofwhisky.com
Notes from the producers... Nose: Dark chocolate, cocoa, sherry, leather, a bit of smoke, minerality, honey and overripe red fruits. Taste: Lightly peaty, nectar, crème brûlée, dried mango, sweet cream, chocolate-covered cherries, slightly salty, with a little red pepper. Finish: Long-lasting nectar, sweet orange, creamy popcorn, roasted malt, minerals and a bit of spiciness.
