Quevedo Tawny Port
$28.99
This is the no-age stated Tawny Port from Quevedo.
Quevedo Port has been growing in popularity tremendously over the past three or four years, and for good reason. The family-owned and operated Port house releases its bottles with a slightly drier but also more approachable house style with plenty of finesse and complexity on offer.
Eleonore Moreau Chablis Magnum
$114.99
Eleonore Moreau's family had been farming grapes from their vineyards in Chablis since the 1980s and in 2011 she made the decision to produce their own wines rather than selling the fruit to other producers. There's a classic Chablis purity that runs through her wines, in part due to the Kimmeridgian limestone soils that are part of Chablis' claim to fame. Aged in stainless steel (without the influence of oak), the wines remain on their less for 12 - 18 months prior to bottling. The extended lees times lend them richness and complexity with the classic Chablis minerality at the forefront.
Fettercairn 12 Year Old
$95.99
We're creeping up on the bicentenary of the Fettercairn distillery. 2024 will mark the 200 year anniversary of Alexander Ramsay founding this Eastern Highland distillery that objectively offers up one of the most interesting and unique flavour profiles in Scotch Whisky. In fact, Angus McRaild (on behalf of Whiskyfun) a couple years back wrote "...cries out ‘Fettercairn’ with these notes of mud, cheese rind, steel wool, mechanical oils, farmyard and root vegetables. It doesn’t sound pleasant I know, but there’s plenty of charm to admire here." Don't even pretend you're not intrigued. Ex-Bourbon. 40%

OMC 25th Annv Ardmore 13 Year
$167.99
I really wanted to dislike this... the price is a touch high, it is from an ex-Wine hogshead, and Ardmore, especially young Ardmore is so hit and miss for me. But it is excellent! 2010 vintage, 13 years old, 50%, and bottled for the 25th Anniversary of the Old Malt Cask range.
