On the nose are smoked and spiced notes and a touch of herbal flowers. In the mouth, it has a smoked taste with almonds and lush-fruits notes. It offers a velvet-like everlasting finish.

Made from the finest blue agave plants in Mexico, Clase Azule Reposado Tequila offers a complex and sophisticated flavor. Whether you're looking for a tequila as a present for a loved one or something you can enjoy either by itself or paired with other liquids, check out Clase Azul Reposado Tequila.

This tequila is then aged in previously used American oak barrels for eight months. This helps ensure that the flavor is perfect in every case.

The sixth and final release in The Macallan Edition series, Edition No. 6 takes its inspiration from the natural wonders of the legendary River Spey and The Macallan Estate. The whisky experience opens with aromas of fresh fruit, nutmeg, ginger, chocolate, vanilla and oak. On the palate, notes of plum and sweet orange with cinnamon, nutmeg, toffee, and oats. The finish is long with fresh fruit and spices turning to creamy chocolate and toasted oats.

Far Niente Winery is located in Oakville, an area famous for Napa Valley Cabernet, and home to our estate Martin Stelling Vineyard from which we’ve been producing our Cabernets since 1982. The abundant 2012 vintage is approachable, even in its youth, with bold, ripe, fruit and mouth-filling tannins typical of the Far Niente house style. After several cool and challenging growing seasons, the weather in 2012 was nearly perfect. March brought heavy spring rains, sustaining the vines through the season. Temperatures were ideal for budbreak, flowering and fruit set, and the summer months brought warm days and cool nights without extreme weather events. These conditions allowed the vines to establish a large, but balanced crop, which steadily ripened until our Cabernet harvest began in early October. Mother Nature held back on her fall rains, enabling us to bring in each block at optimal ripeness before the end of the month. The 2012 Far Niente Cabernet Sauvignon opens with aromas of mixed berry fruit, boysenberry, chocolate covered cherries, layered with hints of graphite and toasted oak. On the palate, a smooth entry is followed by intense, ripe berry notes. This wine is focused and silky through the midpalate, building to a finish with broad tannins and notes of cedar and toasted oak.

Angel’s Envy Rye Finished in Plantation XO Rum Casks is released just twice each year in the autumn and spring. The rum casks were previously used to age French cognac, which adds an additional layer of complexity on the palate. It’s a collision of bold flavors as the raw, spicy rye mingles with the mellow sweetness of the rum, culminating in a uniquely delicious spirit.

It is a radiant Cristal champagne that is emerging, already quite a charmer yet still with such immense potential ahead of it. Of Domaine Cristal’s 45 historical vineyard plots, only 39 were selected to go into the final blend this year, those in which the grapes reflected the true identity of this unique wine: purity of fruit, remarkable finesse and elegant length.

Cristal owes this loyalty to the soil to its permanence. It is a wine that is rooted in the eternal, that of the seasons, a ripening cycle, a heritage and a quest. The quest for excellence, purity and harmony, to create a wine that vibrates in tune with its terroir and mirrors its qualities. All that remains is for the cellar master to adjust this resonance, to give the wine the most fitting ageing process to allow it to vibrate at the highest level.

This year marks the long-awaited return of Leroux’s Nuits-Saint-Georges wines to our offer (the 1er Cru Aux Boudots is offered below). In generous years, Leroux can vinify four Nuits-Saint-Georges wines: this blend of climats, a villages lieu-dit Les Allots and two 1er Cru wines from Aux Thorey and Les Boudots. This year’s blend is a roughly equal split between Aux St. Jacques and Aux Herbues on the Vosne border, and a parcel in the northern part of Fleurières, just south of the town. It should come as no surprise that Leroux’s Nuits taste nothing like the classic rugged stereotype. Instead, you can expect the kind of supple elegance and poise this grower brings to all his wines. 

This Puligny-Montrachet reveals a nice yellow color with green glints. On the nose it reveals floral notes and almond paste. On the palate, it is opulent, aromas of vanilla with a mentholated and iodized touch. Beautiful freshness on the finish!

 Aged in French oak barrels, as opposed to the American oak that remains the stylistic signature of both Silver Oak Cabs, it was to be an elegant, rather Bordeaux-leaning wine that also would preserve the essential character- the Napa Valley-ness- of the patchwork of six vineyard parcels that make up the core of the property.  Now in its third vintage, we are presented with the 2019 Timeless, the most outstanding bottling to date; a Napa Valley wine for the ages.  

Stately and charismatic, this now 30-year-old flagship vineyard delivers once again with generosity and sophistication. A deep potpourri of candied cherry, Asian spices and incense lift gracefully from the glass. Silky, with notions of blue and red fruits, fresh fennel, and juicy cranberry, the wine is supported with a depth of composed tannins that deliver a remarkably grand, mouthwatering finish. There is a level of tension at its core, indicating nearly timeless potential for cellaring.

Since its founding in 1765, Hennessy has been guided by a passion to craft the world’s finest Cognacs - our drive to Never Stop. Never Settle. Hennessy Cognac is crafted with a strict set of standards defined by the Master Blender Renaud Fillioux de Gironde and handed down from generation to generation. However, when it comes to enjoying Cognac, we haven’t followed any rules since 1765.

 

Created in 1979, Hennessy Paradis is so named for the Hennessy Founder’s Cellar, where only the finest, rarest and oldest eaux-de-vie are kept. It is a cognac of remarkable depth and elegance. This cognac is made from 100 eaux-de-vie that have been aged for up to 130 years. Expert selection and blending ensure it epitomises harmony, finesse and maturity. It is presented in a stunning decanter by Italian designer Ferruccio Laviani.

The Opus One 2017 offers a harmonious aromatic balance of rich dark fruit, stems of roses, and earthy forest floor. The juicy entry offers a round, silky mouthfeel with just enough acidity to complement the satin texture. This seductive wine shows flavors of black cassis, black cherry and a hint of cocoa powder. The fine-grained, plush tannins evolve into a long, supple finish.

Blend: 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 5% Merlot, 1% Malbec

Brunello di Montalcino was Italy`s first wine to be accorded D.O.C.G. status, a testament to its aristocracy, balance and fabulous proclivity for aging. Under the direction of Banfi`s master winemakers, our Sangiovese grapes are transformed into a remarkable world-class wine, perhaps the most respected red of Italy. Aged for a total of up to four years, including a minimum of two years in oak barrels, Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino is a wine of robust character. It possesses a rich garnet color, and a depth, complexity and opulence that is softened by an elegant, lingering aftertaste. Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino`s regal qualities are best exhibited with game, red meats, roasts, hearty stews and rich powerful cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano.

Domaine du Colombier Chablis Petit Chablis comes from Chardonnay grapes grown in the AOC Chablis vineyards, with south-south east exposure; the wine during vinification sees only steel. This is a bright, crisp wine with a pretty lemon, limestone and slightly floral nose. The palate is citrusy, mostly lemon backed up with some peach, green apple and more minerality. Good developing finish in a nice Chablis.

Master’s Keep Voyage is a 106-proof expression of 10-year-old bourbon finished with a secondary maturation period in Jamaican rum casks, marking the first rum cask finish in Wild Turkey’s history. Crafted by Master Distiller Eddie Russell in partnership with Dr. Joy Spence, the renowned Master Blender of Appleton Estate rum, Voyage reflects over 80 combined years of experience in crafting exceptional spirits. This one-of-a-kind Kentucky Straight bourbon whiskey draws inspiration from the lush isle of Jamaica and showcases the expertise of two masters of their craft.
The aim with Master’s Keep Voyage was to create a unique spirit that captured the hallmarks of both bourbon and rum-making. To do so Dr. Joy Spence hand selected some of the finest casks from the iconic Jamaican rum house – casks which previously held 14-year-old pot still rum and would best complement the bold top notes and rich caramel undertones of Wild Turkey’s extra-aged bourbons. The casks were then brought to the Wild Turkey Distilling Co. in Lawrenceburg, KY, where they were filled with Eddie Russell’s own hand selected batch of 10-year-old bourbon, which had been aged in Wild Turkey’s classic No. 4 char barrels. After finishing in the Kentucky heat of a timber rickhouse, the result is a tropically influenced American icon, bursting with a palate of fruits, caramel and aged oak, and a warm, long-lasting finish of chocolate and spice.

Every year since the foundation of the House of Krug, a new edition of Krug Grande Cuvée is created to offer the most generous expression of Champagne.

This bottle belongs to the 170th Edition of Krug Grande Cuvée, a blend of 195 wines from 12 different years. The youngest is from the year 2014 and the oldest dates back to 1998. A stay of about seven years in our cellars gives this Edition its remarkable expression and elegance. Each glass poured from this bottle contains the fruit of more than 20 years of meticulous craftmanship.

The 170th Edition of Krug Grande Cuvée is composed around harvest of 2014.  This year was marked by shifting weather conditions, oscillating between cool and hot periods with marked episodes of rain and drought. The wines grew in good conditions, which ensured a generous harvest. This contrasting climate preserved their freshness and thus, the teams were able to observe a great heterogeneity throughout the region, highlighting the importance of the House's plot-by-plot approach.

To create this Edition of Krug Grande Cuvée, the Cellar Master looked to accentuate the diversity of this year's delicate aromatic expressions with reserve wines from several plots and 11 different years. The careful attention paid to the vines and Krug’s exceptional respect for the characteristics of each plot, have contributed to the broad expression of this edition of Krug Grande Cuvée.

In all, reserve wines from the House's extensive library made up 45% of the final blend, bringing the crucial breadth and roudness to each edition of Krug Grande Cuvée.

This edition of Krug is composed of 51% Pinot Noir, 38% Chardonnay and 11% Meunier.

Krug Grande Cuvée is the product of one man, Joseph Krug, who dreamed of making the finest champagne every year, regardless of the weather. Each year, the House of Krug honours this dream with a new edition of Krug Grande Cuvée, the most generous expression of champagne.

Kentucky Owl Bourbon Batch #12

 

The Iconic Napa Valley red, Quintessa is a Cabernet Sauvignon blend from estate vineyards in the heart of the Rutherford Bench district. The estate is farmed using organic and biodynamic techniques, and each year they make a deeper connection between the soils and the terroir, interpreting the property holistically.

The wine is a blend that can include some or all of the five varietals grown on the estate: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carmenere. Fruit from each component block of Quintessa is harvested, sorted, then gravity fed into either oak or stainless steel fermentation tanks. Once fermentation and maceration are complete, each block of wine is aged separately for up to two years in French oak barrels. After aging, the components are brought together and the final blend is created.

This 2018 is the latest release. It's a blend of  92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 2% Carmenere and 1% Petit Verdot aged 20 months in 62% new French oak barrels.

James Suckling scored this 99 points saying "This is beautifully polished with firm, dusty tannins to the blue fruit, as well as chocolate and cedar character. Some much earthier character, too, from mushrooms to bark. Forest flowers. Perfumed. It’s full-bodied with round tannins and a soft, creamy finish. Some iron and iodine to this. So attractive at the finish. From biodynamically grown grapes."

Wine Enthusiast Magazine scored this 98 points saying "This is an exceptional vintage of this exceptional wine, its foundation built around 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, with dustings of Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Beautiful in berry fruit, textured and refined tannin and hints of lavender, licorice and sage, it has complexity and energy in equal measure, lengthy and beautifully focused, a truly impressive achievement of site, vintage and winemaker."

 

 

Volcanic Hill is from the parcel containing rich, volcanic ash soil. It produces fruit with vibrant aromas and bursts of concentrated berries. Wine Advocate notes, “It’s medium to full-body and delivers fantastic purity and depth, offering firm, grainy tannin's to support the bags of earth-laced black fruits, finishing long and mineral-laced.

This alluring white flirts with both elegance and richness, delivering blanched almond and tarragon notes that frame the core of cooked quince, ginger powder and persimmon flavors. The distinctive texture is silky, with a nice crunch, combining a caressing mouthfeel with a zesty quality, while the mineral component emerges on the long, spice-infused finish. The tension is still there, so give this a few years to unravel.

"Our Cabernet is perhaps the most complex wine we make, and it is certainly the wine that takes the most time to reach its full expression before bottling. This vintage is no different, as the process began almost three years ago with bud break in March of 2018. We had a beautiful and consistent growing season at Shifflett Ranch, with no heat spikes and plenty of cool nights, combined with a warm summer and plenty of foggy mornings. After bringing in the fruit in early October, we gently processed the grapes with an extended maceration before aging in 80% new French oak for 23 months. The result is an intensely aromatic wine with layers of red, black, and blue fruit. The wine is drinking great now, however, if you prefer an aged wine, we would absolutely recommend laying this one down in the cellar for 10-15 years."
