Hansel Cahill Lane Pinot Noir 2021
$79.99
Year after year, the Cahill Lane Pinot Noir offers a consistently delicious red, full of red fruit along with floral and spice notes plus a silky, elegant texture.
Stephen Hansel has this to say about Cahill Lane's Pinot Noir: "A blend of 3 clones, clone 114, clone 115, and the Rochioli Pommard clone, are grown each on its own one acre site. The vines were planted in 1989 and are in their peak, quality wise. The Rochioli pommard and the clone 115 contribute red berry and cherry flavors and the clone 114 adds a dimension of herbal flavors giving Cahill Lane an Old world character."
Bussola Amarone Classico
$169.99
A shining example of the style, from one of our favourite producers! "Tommaso Bussola’s wines have received a good deal of critical acclaim over the last few years, and with good reason. These are remarkable wines of the highest level. The estate produces two lines of wines. In theory, the BG wines are more traditional in spirit while the TB wines are meant to be more modern," according to Robert Parker's Wine Advocate.
Carlisle Alicante Bouschet
$74.99
In the last 20 years, Carlsisle has bottled Alicante Bouschet only four times – 2004, 2013, 2016, and now, with this vintage, 2021. While the variety is one of their favourites for blending, providing ample colour and adding a bit of complexity, it can fall short as a complete wine but in these particular vintages, every component is in place, a beautiful nose, delicious flavours, and a long finish. Aged in all neutral oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered.
Tasting Note: Black as a moonless night deep in a bamboo forest (trust us, that’s black!) Blackberries and boysenberries abound in the deep, concentrated aromas. A touch of dark earth as well. Medium-full to full-bodied with plenty of fresh blackberry, ample acidity and suave tannins. While there is plenty of fruit to this wine, it is by no means jammy thanks to its low pH and high TA. This will age well.
