Altesino Brunello Di Montalcino
$81.99
Set amongst the northeastern hills of Montalcino the imposing structure of the 15th century Palazzo Altesi overlooks the estate. Built by the Tuscan family Tricerchi, whose marble crest can still be seen set over the old oak entrance door. Since 2002 Altesino has been owned by the Gnudi Angelini family, a forerunner in the pursuit of excellence, with the introduction of the “Cru” concept (Brunello di Montalcino Montosoli) concept in 1975, Altesino was among the first wineries to use barriques in 1979. They are one of the most consistently excellent and affordable Brunello's on the market today.
Chave `Mon Coeur` Cotes du Rhone
$39.99
Nice review for a well priced Rhone wine!
90 Wine Spectator "This unfurls a pure beam of crushed plum and black cherry fruit, inlaid gently with singed bay leaf, pepper and anise notes. A light smoky edge runs through the finish. Drink now. 9,000 cases made. —J.M"
Compass Box Peat Monster 750mL
$104.99
For those who love big, rich, peaty and smoky malt whiskies, this is your whiskey. Bottled at 46%, The Peat Monster combines extremely smoky malt whisky from Islay with medium-peated Highland whiskies to create a balanced and approachable monster, but a monster, nonetheless. Enjoy!
The Peat Monster was featured in Day 3 of our 2018 KWM Whisky Advent Calendar.
Producer Description
"For 2019, The Peat Monster has a new label. Featuring this quite marvellous specially-commissioned painting, all batches released going forward will showcase the new artwork. It isn’t just the packaging that is different, however: the recipe has evolved, too.
Still very much the whisky for those who love big, rich, smoky-peaty malts, our latest version of THE PEAT MONSTER is older and more elegant than before.
"Inspired by feedback from smoky whisky lovers, our new Painting Label of THE PEAT MONSTER incorporates single malts with a more aromatic and graceful style of smokiness. We have sought to retain the peaty intensity for which THE PEAT MONSTER has long been celebrated, whilst creating a depth and elegance not seen before."
Canella Prosecco
$32.99
Prosecco is a variety of white grape grown in the Veneto region of Italy, and also gives its name to the sparkling wine made from the grape. Prosecco makes a delicious aperitif. Smooth aromas of fragrant, fresh flowers, lemon and lime. The dry, citrusy palate and soft mouth feel work perfectly together, while the finish is long, fruity and very pleasant.
Carlisle Rossi Ranch Grenache
$72.99
From owner/winemaker Mike Officer: Booyah! We’ve produced some mighty tasty Grenaches in the past (2018, 2016, and 2013 come to mind) but for my palate, none holds a candle to this lip-smackin’ bad boy! It actually transports me back to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, reminding me of some of my favorite 100% (or nearly so) Grenache cuvées grown in safres. Picked October 18th, 20% of the fruit was not destemmed to add a bit of peppery spice to the nose and palate. After an indigenous fermentation and nearly a month on the skins, the wine was pressed to all neutral French oak. It remained unracked and on its lees until bottling. Unfined and unfiltered.
The Rossi Vineyard was originally planted in 1910 by the Rossi family which it takes its name from. The Vineyard lies in the Sonoma Valley and is planted with Zinfandel, Grenache, and other varietals.
Alberta Premium Whisky
$27.99
The flagship Whisky from Alberta Distillers, which itself was founded in 1946. Alberta Premium has been a ubiquitous bottle in this province and others since it was first launched back in 1958. Made right here in Calgary, Alberta, this 100% Rye is priced like a bar rail whisky but is also quite a good whisky. It is a good introduction to what Alberta Distillers is capable of. 40%.
Corkscrew Picnic
$1.99
Perfect little travel corkscrew! Fits almost anywhere.
A picnic corkscrew has a worm with a short shaft with a ring in the top. The worm is protected by a sheath which is inserted in the ring in the top to form the handle. It is a very convenient stowaway corkscrew for the picnic basket.
Rockford Semillon
$56.99
Robert O'Callaghan is a winemaking pioneer in Australia's Barossa Valley. His wines are so popular, most sell out at the winery before they have a chance to make it overseas. This wine faithfully reflects the contribution made by the Sibley and Kalleske families. Their skill and devotion to their soil helps give the Barossa its strength, stability and soul. Local Growers Semillon has the ability to age and is perfect slightly chilled with grilled seafood, fresh garden salads or with a roast Barossa chicken. A wine that invites itself to lunch.
Private Preserve Wine Preserver
$14.99
Private Preserve is well suited to the preservation of wine, port, sherry, single malts, bourbons, Cognac, Sake and Tequila and in the kitchen for fine cooking oils and vinegars. Tests have shown that Private Preserve can keep wine fresh for a full year without any deterioration in bouquet or oxidation. Each canister of PrivatePreserve contains 600 separate sprays, which can be used to preserve up to 100 bottles.
Private Preserve is a unique gas that lays a blanket over the wine. Private Preserve's gases are heavier than air, and thus displace oxygen from the surface of the wine.
