Jose Cuervo Reserva La Familia
$204.99
"Reserva de la Familia is the world’s first extra-añejo tequila. It is hand selected from the Cuervo family’s private collection. Each bottle is made using only blue agave harvested at its peak maturity after seven to twelve years of growing in the field, and aged in French and American oak barrels for a minimum of three years. Reserva de la Familia is best served in a snifter, allowing for full appreciation of its flavors, aroma, and velvety finish," according to the Jose Cuervo team.
Montes Cabernet
$19.99
A great cab at a great price from a terrific producer. This red offers intense ruby color with blackcurrant, chocolate and cigar box aromas. Look for balanced with well-integrated oak. Great complexity of flavors in the mouth; the mid-palate is full-bodied and balanced with a remarkably long finish. A superb wine ready to drink now, it can also cellar for a few years for future enjoyment. But why wait! Fire up the BBQ.
Glengoyne 10 Year
$84.99
Only 12 miles from Glasgow, and although a Highland by definition, these whiskies are known for a more Lowland style due to the use of unpeated malt. Also unique is the choice of sherry used for cask finishing. Instead of the more common olorosso wood, Glengoyne uses predominately palo cortado, resulting in more nutty flavors. This version has a light nose, and is creamy smooth with notes of vanilla.
Burrowing Owl Chardonnay
$51.99
Burrowing Owl's first vineyards were planted in 1993 and the winery's first vintage was released in 1997. The winery boasts the first underground storage caves in the Okanagan Valley. This Chardonnay has a delicate bouquet of peaches and melons with just a hint of fresh mango. It is an outstanding white wine that shows lots of depth; it would shine at any dinner party. Go Canadian!
Taylor Fladgate 40 Year Tawny Port
$296.99
Taylor's is now more than 300 years old, but it remains a family firm, 100% independently owned. This is an incredible example of an old Tawny port, and it's a real rarity, as so few houses will make a 40 year old tawny. This wine is olive gold in color, with rich caramel, butterscotch, hazelnut flavors. The concentration in this port also produces a wine with amazing length, which lingers beautifully on the palate. Very special!
Carmen Gran Reserva Carmenere
$21.99
Viña Carmen, the oldest of the Chilean wine houses, was named by its founder Christian Lanz in honor of his wife. It is located in the Maipo Valley, just one hour away from the bustling city of Santiago! This rich blend of Carmenère and Cabernet is a deep ruby color, with ripe aromas of cassis, tobacco and spice. The palate is full bodied with soft tannins, rich fruit and good structure.
Elderton Command Shiraz
$121.99
The 2006 Shiraz Command is a glass-coating opaque purple. Aromas of scorched earth, pencil lead, sandalwood, meat blood, game, and blueberry are followed by a dense, voluptuous, layered Shiraz with tons of flavor. Impeccably balanced and concealing enough structure for 5-7 years of cellaring, it will offer a drinking window extending from 2015 to 2026. 94 Robert Parker
Cave Spring Estate Riesling
$34.99
Estate bottled from some of Niagara's oldest Riesling vines, this wine fully captures the terroir of one of the region's most acclaimed vineyards. Vinified entirely in stainless steel to preserve the citrus fruit and minerally acidity typical of our vineyard, this vintage possesses the depth, body and concentration to age 5 - 10 years. Serve with scallops, lobster, halibut, sea bass or mild cheeses.
Burrowing Owl Cabernet Sauvignon
$63.99
Brilliantly made, and worth every penny. Owner Jim Wyse produced his first wines in 1997, concentrating on 4 grape varieties -- Cabernet and Merlot for red wines and Chardonnay and Pinot Gris for white. Winemaker Bill Dyer takes special pride in the fact that Burrowing Owl has become one of THE Canadian cult wines and is highly sought after upon release. Look for cedar, mint and blueberry aromas, finishing with hints of dill and anise. Small amounts of Merlot and Cabernet Franc added.
