La Torre Brunello 2020
$86.99
The price of wine seems to be getting higher and higher with every passing day, especially in famous regions such as Burgundy and Napa. Brunello is of course no exception to this, with most bottles nowadays going for at least $100. This bottle from La Torre represents great value for money. It offers aromas of black tea, black cherries, and savoury herbs on the nose. On the palate, ripe red fruits and baking spice hit the front of the palate, with a finish of cranberry and violet tapering off. Fine tannins and a crisp acidity keep the palate wanting more.
Would benefit from a couple-hour decant.
Pairs perfectly with turkey or roast beef and will be able to hold up to almost any side you throw at it!
Le Grand Verdus Bordeaux Rouge
$24.99
Great value for a red Bordeaux! This easy-to-drink blend is made of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon. It comes from a lovely Bordeaux estate located in the heart of the AOC Bordeaux Supérieur, between Médoc, Graves and Saint-Emilion. The Le Grix de la Salle family started their winemaking business after the Second World War, but the estate dates back to Renaissance times.
Dumangin M.V. La Cuvee
$64.99
Formerly known as Cuvee 17, the M.V. LA Cuvee is Dumangin's entry level Champagne, and is easily the best value we have. It is a multi-vintage Champagne... hence the name, and we love the new labels!

Benetakoa Goren Rioja
$56.99
Benetakoa Winery was founded in 1985 by Carlos Martínez de Cañas in Villabuena de Álava. Viticulture has been a centuries-old tradition in their family, and for several generations we have dedicated themselves to perfecting and learning from the land and the vine. In 1997 they expanded their facilities and moved to a new winery built in the upper part of Villabuena. They preserve the tradition and the artisan concept that was breathed in the first winery and bet on innovation as the basis of their wines. Since 2001, Gorka Martínez de Cañas, son of the winery’s founder, has taken charge of the family project.

From The Producer
"Built in 1817, Teaninich is a Highland single malt distillery. It’s quite unique-y really, instead of a mash tun, it uses a filter press to extract the sweet sugars from the malt. There is much mystery surrounding the distillery, so we did as all Boutique-y’s do and went to town on the label - see below.
The Label
Based on a true love story from many years ago about Captain Hugh Munro (founder of this distillery). He was shot in the head behind his eyes but, he survived! Unsurprisingly, he lost his eyesight as a result. His sweetheart was forbidden from marrying him due to his condition, so she married someone else. Despite their differing paths, she continued to love him and as her dying wish, visited the church to see him one last time."
