Dolin Creme de Violettes
$69.99
FROM THE PRODUCER;
"The recipe for our fruit liqueurs is simple: water, fruit, sugar and liquor. It's the proportions and the maceration time that make all the difference and that's where our know-how comes into play. With our long experience in the subtle art of blending fruit and liquor, we did not limit ourselves to the classic crême de cassis, instead we have elaborated blackberry, blueberry and even chestnut spirits whose flavors bring to mind our mountains. Add some color to your aperitifs!"
16% ABV
Crème de violette and liqueur de violette are generic terms for a liqueur with natural and/or artificial violet flower flavoring and coloring with either a brandy base, a neutral spirit base, or a combination of the two. The taste profile and aroma are distinctly floral and sweet, and reminiscent of the violet candies popular in the early to mid 20th century. Its known production dates back to the early 19th century when it was served with dry vermouth or alone as a cordial.

Pietradolce Santo Spirito Etna Rosso
$78.99
Santo Spirito Etna Rosso is a wine obtained from Nerello Mascalese grapes from a pre-phylloxera vineyard that was brought to light and restored during land reclamation work. This vineyard is located in the highest part of the Contrada Santo Spirito at 900 meters above sea level. It is a very windy promontory with marked temperature variations and sandy soils, with abundant volcanic rock.
The harvest takes place in the second half of October. The crushing and destemming is followed by a maceration of approximately 18 days in raw cement tulip tanks. The 14-month aging in oak barrels is followed by maturation in the bottle. The result is a wine with an ample bouquet, which alternates spicy notes with red berries. The taste is vibrant, with distinctive elegance and personality, like drinking a bottle of great Burgundy.
Paul John Mithuna Single Malt 58%
$259.99
For all of you Gemini's out there! Or, for all of us whisky lovers. No need to discriminate. The unpeated Mithuna release from Paul John is bottled at 58% ABV, and is part of the distillery's Zodiac series. Mithuna is the Indian counterpart to the Gemini zodiac sign.
Producer Description
"Unpeated. Non chill-filtered. Matured in American virgin oak casks and finished in ex-bourbon casks.
Hues of old oak and sophisticated aromas of liquorice with gentle beeswax lead to a luxuriant delivery of ulmo honey on crisp toast, and tender notes of vanilla. Chewy flavours of coffee mocha, orange peel and delicate spice float on active tannins while gentle oils enjoy gists of dark cocoa tones. The finish is gratifyingly long and complex with multi-toned sugars and delicate honeys.
Renowned for contradictive strengths, the characteristics of Gemini are epitomized by this Indian single malt as mesmerizing layers of austere, dry tannins are challenged in equal measure by resplendent sugars and mocha on delicate oils."

Coravin Timeless Three Wine Pres. system
$399.99
The Coravin wine preservation system has become the standard tool of the trade for wine importers and collectors alike. It allows you to draw measured amounts of wine from a sealed bottle while injecting a harmless inert gas blanket on top of the remaining wine. The claim is that it will preserve the wine for years, something we have not had the opportunity to put to the test, but there is no doubt the system works. Last week we tasted a top-notch Oregon Pinot Noir from Cristom that had been under Coravin gas for several months, and the wine was perfectly intact. The kit includes the Coravin Three, 2 gas cartridges, 2 screw caps (as there are now plenty of premium wines under screwcap) and one aerator.
Additional capsules can be purchased as well, allowing you to pour up to 15 five-ounce (150ml) glasses of wine. If someone feels like a glass of really good wine but doesn't want to commit to drinking the bottle, the Coravin system just might be the ticket.
