Burwood Gin
$35.99
From Calgary, Alberta's own Burwood Distillery comes Burwood Gin.
Bottled at 44% ABV.
From the Producer:
"Showcasing the levels of juniper and coriander you would expect in a London Dry Gin, but elevated by citrus and lemon grass to give a clean spring time, summery nose. The addition of Szechuan Pepper adds a touch of spice & tingling sensation, but is reigned in by the Dragon Well Green Tea, which rounds the mouth feel giving a smoothness on the tongue."
Tokaji Classic 6 Puttonyos
$159.99
Located outside of Mád— the “Capital of Sweet Wines”— the vineyards of Tokaj Classic comprise 8 hectares in two of the very first classified Grand Cru vineyards of the world, Királyand Betsek. The winery is managed by two classical musicians, and unlike wineries in other regions, creates wine employing a completely unique and highly complex methodology practiced only in Tokaj. Winemaker, Imre Galambosi, was born into a family fully immersed in the Tokaji wine world, where they have been producing wines in the region for 1000 years. This production uses wild yeast for fermentation, fermenting wines slowly in stainless steel. This is their 6 puttonyos Tokaji (150gL), which has won six consecutive Gold Medals at the International Wine and Spirits Competition (UK). It has an elegant complexity and is a beautiful expression of their grand cru terroir.

Ochoa Gran Reserva Magnum
$91.99
This is a Magnum / 1.5 Litre bottle of the Ochoa Grand Reserva.
"Ochoa Gran Reserva is a reference of our winery and our family. is produced only in exceptional harvest years. Ochoa Gran Reserva is the result of an exhaustive selection of grapes in the vineyard. It’s the best of our best. We only make it in good years and the quantity varies.
It is an elegant, rounded wine with delicious tannins, aged long enough in the cask and in the bottle to become a Gran Reserva.
Made from Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes from vineyards El Secadero, La Milla and Montijo. It ages for 8 years in the winery, where the first 2 years ages in American and French oak barrels of 225 liters and the rest of the time in bottle until it reaches the moment to start drinking it. Of course this wine can still improve in the bottle. We estimate its potential in 10 more years once it is released into the market, so approximately 20 years since its harvest."

Dumangin Le Vintage Premier Cru 2010
$97.99
2010 Vintage. A grower-producer in the heart of Chigny-les-Rose, Giles Dumangin has champagne coursing through his veins. Dating back to the 1650s, the Dumangins have always worked with the vines of Champagne, but it wasn't until 1890 when Hippolyte Dumangin created Champagne Dumangin in the 1er Cru vineyards of Chigny-les-Roses. Five generations later, Champagne Dumangin is producing an array of champagnes, from their classic, feminine style to their newer, high-end cuvees. Their Vintage Cuvee is a blend of Chardonnay (54%) and Pinot Noir (46%), and with 9 years en tirage (on the yeast lees), the wine shows beautiful and elegant complexity. Expect notes of brioche, grilled almonds, blossom and lemon drops, with a bright acidity that extends the finish. Pair with fresh seafood, or simply enjoy as an aperitif. 2010 was a challenging vintage for the region, but Dumangin did some aggressive sorting and managed to deliver a lovely vintage wine.
