Boutique-y Aberlour 9 Year Old 50ml
$23.99
This mini bottle from That Boutique-y Whisky Company was featured on Day 19 of our 2021 KWM Whisky Calendar
This is the 6th Batch of Aberlour was bottled released by That Boutique-y Whisky Company in 2018. It was bottled at 9 years old and at 49.7%. 3080 of the company's standard 500ml bottles were made in total. Though you cannot tell by the colour of the whisky alone, this bottling of Aberlour sure looks like it could be a lot less sherried than the official releases we see from the distillery.... Interesting.
About The Label
"The label on our Aberlour bottling features the Mash Tun whisky bar in Aberlour - though who’s that nervous fellow peeking out of the window?"
Boutique-y Macduff 10 Year 50ml
$20.99

Sadly, we have no larger-sized bottles of this decadent Macduff to sell. 50.2%
Label Notes from TBWC
"The Macduff distillery was founded in the 1960s and is kitted out with five stills, four of which have lyne arms that are rather oddly arranged, with one of the wash stills’ lyne arms being U-shaped too, just so they’ll all fit in the still room! They don’t release whisky themselves under their own name - they release it under the name The Deveron. This is why the name Macduff might be more familiar to you from Shakespeare’s play, ‘Macbeth’. We’ve even put one of the deleted scenes from the play on the label of our Macduff bottling. Press the stopper down to hear the director’s commentary from Shakespeare himself (probably a lie)."
Carlisle Radiant Ridge Mourvedre
$76.99
100% Mourvèdre. Harvested in late October. 80% destemmed and 20% whole-cluster. 14% new and 86% neutral French oak.
A new wine from Carlisle! While the Mourvèdre harvests are typically blended with Syrah to create their "The Integral" blend, the 2018 vintage of Mourvèdre demanded a single-varietal release. This is a ferocious, mysterious Mourvèdre with shocking presence and more than a nod to Southern French examples.
This wine is tremendously cellar-worthy. Enjoy 2025 through 2040.
Rottensteiner Lagrein Riserva
$44.99
An exploration into the rich winemaking history of South Tyrol, Rottenstiner's Lagrein Riserva has elegance to spare. The sedimentary soils irrigated by the Talfer River passing through the vineyards near Bolzano allow for the native Lagrein grapes to flourish. After fermentation, the wine is matured in large wooden barrels to further develop texture and complexity.
A deep garnet-coloured wine, with arrestingly complex aromas that oscillate between delicate florals of violet and the earthly elegance of chocolate and spice. A distinct tannic edge is perfectly balanced by fresh yet restrained acidity, creating a wine just waiting to be paired with red meats and ripe, intense cheeses.
Rottensteiner Pinot Grigio
$39.99
A unique take on a common varietal often showcased in Italian wines, Rottensteiner's Pinot Grigio blends grapes from both moderate and high-elevation vineyards to create harmony between body and elegance, between structure and minerality.
Rottensteiner's Pinot Grigio is a beguilingly complex wine, ripe with tropical fruit and warm spice notes. This allows for an effortless pairing with all manner of food, from starters to poultry - or have it on its own to fully explore all the complexity this wine has to offer.

From The Producer
"Along the roman road of Pouilly-sur-Loire, the vineyards of Les Chailloux present a beautiful vein of flint which gave Valérie the idea to express the vividness and the purity of this terroir. Vinification takes place in an ovoid concrete vat referred to as “the egg”, in order to enhance and embellish the fresh richness of this cuvée. L’Odyssée, an invitation to a journey and a reference to her son Ulysse…"
