Montalto Pennon Hill Pinot Noir
$48.99
Montalto is a small scale production coming from Mornington Peninsula, South Australia, where John Mitchell founded the winery in 1998. They lease several vineyards across the peninsula to showcase the true diversity of the cool climate region. This Pinot Noir from their Pennon Hill line shows the elegance of Mornington Peninsula, with notes of fresh blue and red berries, earth, a touch of spice, blossom, and bright acidity to round out this complex wine. This wine sees a touch of French Oak, which beautifully complements its delicate characteristics,
Venturini Montelocco Lambrusco
$29.99
A classic Lambrusco! This fruity, easy-drinking sparkling red wine is coming from Venturini Baldini, a fantastic low-intervention producer in Emilia Romagna. Expect notes of plum, blackberry, black cherry and violets, with a hint of earthy spice. This wine is best paired with most Italian cuisine; tomato-based, cheese-based, cream-based pasta dishes, or cured meats and cheese!
Scarabus 10 Year Islay Single Malt
$89.99
Like its no-age stated younger sibling, the Scarabus 10-year-old is an undisclosed Islay Single Malt Scotch bottled at 46%. It is matured for at least a decade before bottling in a combination of ex-Bourbon, virgin oak and refill casks.
Old Forester 1897 Bonded Bourbon 50%
$77.99
The 1897 Bourbon from Old Forester is named in honour of the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897. The Bourbon of course adheres to the guidelines put into law by this act, which means:
- All whiskey in the bottle must be produced by one distillery and by one distiller over the course of one distillation season.
- The whiskey must be at least four years old.
- It must be bottled at least 100 proof / 50% ABV
- The whiskey must be aged in bonded warehouses under United States federal supervision.
- The label on the bottle has to state which distillery it comes from and also where it was bottled.
Dalwhinnie Distillers Edition 2021
$132.89
Diageo's Distillers Edition series is sort of a 'shadow version' of their Classic Malts range. The distilleries that make up that coveted sextet are largely household names that most whisky enthusiasts have tasted, or at least heard of: Oban, Talisker, Dalwhinnie, Lagavulin, Cragganmore, and Glenkinchie. And while many folks are familiar with the flagship malts from those iconic distilleries, most haven't tackled the Distillers Edition range, where those classic single malts get treated to a bit of bonus time in finishing casks. This Dalwhinnie DE, for example, is essentially the classic 15-year-old, reracked into ex-Oloroso sherry casks for a period, and bottled each year in limited editions. Expect a richer experience than you'd find in the Classic Malts. A very welcome variation on a theme.
This is the 2021 edition, distilled in 2006, and bottled at 43%.
Dingle Irish Single Malt Whiskey
$83.99
While Dingle Distillery has been releasing small batches of its Irish Whiskey for a few years now, this is the first regular expression to hit the shelves. Their Single Malt is triple distilled and bottled at 46.3% after being matured in a combination of PX Sherry and first-fill ex-Bourbon casks. It is purportedly composed of 6 to 7-year-old Dingle Whiskey stock.
Ghostfish Grapefruit GF IPA 4pack
$22.49
Producer's notes:
American IPAs are known for their citrusy hop punch, but we cranked up the juice on this one! Brewed with a blend of Cascade and Horizon hops, then dry hopped with Altus hops, codenamed “Experimental Grapefruit”, this IPA is a serious citrus bomb. Lively and bright, bracingly bitter, and eminently refreshing, you’ll wish it grew on trees!
Ingredients: water, sorghum, brown rice, candi syrup, tapioca maltodextrin, hops, grapefruit puree, yeast
First Edition Glen Keith 1993 28 Year
$524.99
Distilled in 1993 at the Glen Keith Distillery, this 28 year old single malt was matured in a Refill Barrel before bottling at 56.4%.
Penelope Four Grain Bourbon
$76.99
Penelope's flagship bottle is this Four Grain Straight Bourbon Whiskey, which contains Corn, Rye, Wheat and Malted Barley. It is bottled at 40%.
Penelope Bourbon Bottling Company resides in Frankfurt, Kentucky, though this Bourbon was originally distilled in Lawrenceburg, Indiana. Hmm... Which Midwest Grain Distillery could this be a Product of? The fact that this whiskey is sourced is not a bad thing regardless - Penelope has quickly developed a reputation for being masterful blenders of the barrels they purchase, including with this Four Grain Bourbon. Indeed: the Indiana distillery this hails from doesn't actually have a four grain Bourbon Mash Bill. Instead, Penelope purposefully blends casks from two different mash bills together (one set containing rye in the mash and the other set using wheat as the secondary grain) to create this Four Grain Bourbon.
