So concentrated and deep, this massively structured wine performs above its price range. Saturated with blackberries, black currants, espresso and dark chocolate flavors, it is firmly wrapped in a thick layer of tannin. Delicious now, it will become more complex and drinkable with time.

G.D. Vajra Barolo Albe DOCG 2020

Country: Italy

Region: Piemonte

Varietal: 100% Nebbiolo

Ageing: 26 months in Slovenian Oak

Alcohol: 14%

Winemaker Notes: "The true Beauty of Albe is the caress of the sun that rises three times every morning over our vineyards. It’s the exceptional simplicity of nature that makes the awakening of life an everyday miracle."

The 2020 Barolo Albe shows an expressive nose with aromas of fresh cherries, crushed stones and roses. The mouthfeel is bright and energetic, with generous mouthfeel and a youthful tannic structure enriched by notes of raspberry and orange zest. Long, textural finish.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate 93

You can't beat this value. The G.D. Vajra 2020 Barolo Albe is buttoned up with fresh primary fruit, and the wine does not have that hint of over-ripeness that is found across this vintage. The fruit is dark and savory, and there is a big mineral component to match, but the bouquet is nicely redolent of dark currant, plum, granite and a raspy dry note that brings crushed shale to mind. The tannins are quite impactful, and they give this wine extra runway for moderate bottle aging.

#9 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2024

Wine Spectator 94

This effusive red displays cherry, raspberry, rose, iron, juniper and hay flavors, underscored by vibrant acidity. Harmonious and supple in texture, with a long aftertaste of red fruit, mineral and floral elements.

James Suckling 93

This is a bright and lively Barolo showing sliced oranges, raspberries, crushed stones and rose petals on the nose. Medium-bodied, with sharp acidity and tight tannins. Lots of energy. Try from 2027.

Wine Enthusiast 93

The nose is a harmonious blend of red fruits, featuring warmed cherries macerated in sweet and savory spices of cinnamon and clove. Dried raspberries and red currant add depth, while a distinct dried leaf and floral component entices. Vibrant cherry, cranberry and strawberry stand tall on the palate, with thyme and bay leaf adding subtle herbaceous undertones that balance the flavors. Mouthwatering acidity keeps the wine lively, and approachable tannins allow you to enjoy this wine now and give you the tools to pair with a variety of cuisines. Drink 2024-2037

Pairing Suggestions: Prime Rib, Rib Eye Steak, Osso Buco, Lamb, Pasta Carbonara, Lasagna, Roast Goose or Turkey, Gorgonzola or other blue cheeses.

Wheel Horse Caribbean Rum Barrel Aged Rye

Our limited release Summer 2024 bottling is a 4-5 year Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey finished in Caribbean Rum barrels (previously used by Appleton Estate). The Rye is made from a mash bill of 95% rye and 5% malted barley. Like our standard Rye, the whiskey was distilled in copper stills then matured in hand-selected, 53-gallon, charred American oak barrels. Only 2,100 bottles were produced.

Tasting Notes: On the nose, this whiskey is fruity with aromas of apple pie and dark maple syrup. Once sipped, rich flavors of molasses and espresso are apparent before revealing notes of spiced fruit cake and root beer. The finish lingers with hints of candy apple and brown sugar.

Michter's Small Batch US 1 American Whiskey

The US★1 expressions, so named to honor Michter’s heritage harkening back to America’s first whiskey company, consist of some of the finest single barrel and truly small batch whiskeys available. Distilled to Master Distiller Dan McKee’s exacting specifications, no US★1 whiskey is ever released until Dan and the Michter’s tasting panel deems it ready.

"Unlike Bourbon or Rye, which, by definition, must be aged in new oak barrels, our US 1 Unblended American Whiskey is aged in a way that utilizes bourbon-soaked barrels to achieve a rich and unique flavor profile.” *Crucially, our US 1 Unblended American Whiskey never contains grain neutral spirits – hence its “unblended” distinction."

Production: Small batch. Limited quantities.

State of Distillation: Kentucky

Bottling Strength: 83.4 proof (41.7% ABV)

Cooperage: Whiskey-soaked American white oak barrels

Tasting Notes: Deep butterscotch and vanilla notes, hints of caramel and dried fruit with a ripened fruit finish.

Another remarkable edition to the world-class Michter's portfolio 4 Stars, Highly Recommended -Spirit Journal

Nose: Aromas of vanilla cupcakes and sticky honey buns and sweet oak with very light fruit scents of cherry and strawberry shortcake. Very enjoyable nose.

Palate: Light notes of strawberry shortcake, very soft cinnamon and vanilla with light citrus notes of lemon and orange zest.

Our Price: $45.00

*Note: For those wondering, Grain Neutral Spirits or GNS is made by distilling grains like corn, wheat, rye, barley, or rice multiple times to a high purity level. The result is a spirit that is odorless, tasteless, and has no distinct color or aroma.
