Poplar Grove The Legacy
$94.99
Founded in 1993, Poplar Grove Winery is one of the original five wineries on the Naramata Bench. Tony and Barb Holler purchased the winery in 2007. Their sons, Chris, Andrew, Matthew, and Eric farm more than 140 acres of estate vineyards with care. The family is widely recognized for crafting their outstanding signature red blend The Legacy, as well as delicious Cabernet Franc and Merlot-focused wines and an exceptional Pinot Gris. Together they share a commitment to distinctive, genuine wines that reflect the character of the Okanagan Valley.
Amrut Two Continents
$169.99
Good to see this one back. There's only ever been a handful of batches of this expression, so it's extra special to see the prodigal child return.
Amrut Two Continents starts its life in India and, after a period of initial maturation in those warm climes, the casks are shipped to an undisclosed European location for the last little bit of 'growing up'. An interesting concept (something that Scotch whisky could never do), and always well-executed. This is Batch No 4.
Natural colour, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 46% abv.
