Spy Valley Pinot Noir
$31.99
At Spy Valley the emphasis on viticultural excellence creates wines that capture the essence of the environment and are classically Marlborough. Their wines are youthful, exuberant and bursting with fruit flavor and aroma. In addition to grape vineyards they have planted over 2000 olive trees. This Pinot Noir is bursting with aromas of the earth, spice and tar. Complex and very well made.
Spy Valley Sauvignon Blanc
$26.99
A treasure from New Zealand's Marlborough region, the winery is named after the satellite tracking station based in the area's Waihopai Valley. The Sauvignon Blanc is classic Marlborough with aromas of bell pepper and grapefruit and cut grass, leading into a palate of tropical fruit, citrus and fresh herbs. The mid-palate is rich, the acidity will make your mouth water and the finish is lingering. This award-winning wine is the perfect accompaniment to herb-crusted whitefish, oysters on the half-shell, or fresh arugula salads.
Ayinger Celebrator Doppelbock
$5.69
Celebrator has a creamy head of tight bubbles contrasting beautifully with its profound dark robe. It is full-bodied and velvety from half a year's aging. Although it is strong, it is not overpowering. There is a wonderful and complex balance between the various malts, the alcohol and the subtle hops. A complex fruitiness of roasted malt and whole hop flowers make Celebrator great as a party drink with friends and family at celebrations. Despite its richness, it has a faintly smoky dryness in the finish.
Almaza
$3.99
Deeply discounted item to clear out remaining stock. If you still don't like the price, make us an offer.
Founded in 1933 in Bauchrieh by Lebanese shareholders the Almaza Brewery was initially called "Brasserie Franco-Libano-Syrienne". This Lebanese Pilsner shows an herbal and grassy scent. Clear golden color, white lasting head. Light malty taste with some sweetness.
Joie A Noble Blend
$38.99
A great wine from one of our favourite Okanagan producers! A Noble Blend is made in the spirit of Edelzwicker or Gentil, the traditional Germanic-varietal blend of the Alsace region of France. The literal translation of Edelzwicker is “a noble blend.” Year after year, this white wine is gorgeous, with lush peach, honeysuckle, and pink grapefruit aromas. A touch of botrytis adds richness, complementing the minerally, white pepper finish.
Glenfiddich 12 Year
$71.99
The 12 Year Old is Glenfiddich's flagship bottle.
Rebel Kentucky Straight Bourbon
$41.99
This wheated bourbon left Billy Idol crying more, more, more and purportedly used to be a favourite of both Keith Richards and Mick Jagger of the Rolling Stones. Bottled by a company named Luxco, who sources barrels for its various bottlings including Rebel Yell and Ezra Brooks. Luxco now operates its own distillery just outside of Bardstown, KY called Lux Row distillery.
Lux Row Distillery just opened in 2018, so it will be a while before this Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is actually bottled from that new spirit. Rebel Yell was previously produced through a contract with Heaven Hill Distillers at their Bernheim Distillery in Louisville, KY. 40% ABV.
Grand Marnier
$52.99
Grand Marnier is a liqueur created in 1880 by Alexandre Marnier-Lapostolle. It is made from a blend of true cognacs and distilled essence of bitter orange. Grand Marnier is 40% alcohol. It can be consumed "neat" as a digestif and can be used in mixed drinks and desserts. In France this kind of use is the most popular especially with Crêpes Suzette and "crêpes au Grand Marnier".
Moss Wood Amy's Red Blend 2023
$39.99
Amy's Red Blend from Moss Wood is a both customer and staff favourite at Kensington Wine Market. Vintage after vintage, this Bordeaux-style blend punches well above its price point. The 2023 vintage contains 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, 6% Malbec, and 6% Petit Verdot.
Established in 1969, Moss Wood is an important, founding estate of the Margaret River wine region in the northern sub–region of Wilyabrup, Western Australia. Clare & Keith Mugford, as winemakers, viticulturalists & proprietors, have been making wine & tending the vineyard at Moss Wood since 1984 & 1979, respectively. Their exacting viticulture ensures the production of high-quality fruit, and they have created a stable of fine wines distinguished by their consistency over each vintage, along with their ability to age superbly.
They have put significant effort into developing an appropriate style for each of their wines, but Cabernet Sauvignon, their first wine, is still the primary focus. Naturally, they looked to the great wines of Bordeaux for inspiration and carefully examined the factors that have made Bordeaux the benchmark for Cabernet Sauvignon.
As they were making wine in Margaret River inspired by those of the Medoc, they felt it was important to consider the Bordeaux environment as opposed to Margaret River’s individualistic climate and terroir. Wine writer Jancis Robinson has called them the Chateau Latour of Australia, and, we might add, for a fraction of what Latour costs.
