Dom de LEnclos Chablis Fourch Magnum
$194.99
Romain and Damien Bouchard founded their winemaking estate only in 2016, yet they are the fourth generation of their clan to toil the classic and chalky, Kimmeridgian soils of Chablis. For decades, the family provided other winemakers with peerless Chardonnay fruit, pulled from impressive holdings in grand cru and premier cru vineyards, planted carefully by family hands. With a passion to craft Chablis wines according to “simple and natural” methods and with a good dose of “observation and patience,” the brothers—who call themselves “perfectionists”— have set a new, higher standard for the character-driven wines of Chablis

Milk & Honey Art & Craft Dopplebock Cask
$139.99
Ok, this one is a bit out there... Bottled after 3 years maturing in a Dopplebock casks from HaAretz Brewery. Only 6 bottles available!
Producer Note: "This single malt whisky has been fully matured in ex-beer casks from the highly-acclaimed HaAretz Brewery. These casks, originally ex-bourbon casks granted to HaAretz by M&H, were in-turn used for the maturation of a special DoppelBock (double-bock) beer, characterized by a sweet aroma and a palate rich in chocolate and toasted malt notes. After 4-6 months, the beer was extracted and the casks returned to M&H, re-filled and matured to perfection for 3 years. One of the casks in the edition spent a full year of its maturation in the M&H Dead Sea Project, enhancing its flavor to the maximum."
Milk & Honey Art & Craft Belgian Ale

Producer Note: "This single malt whisky has been fully matured in 3 ex-beer casks from the Jems Brewery. These casks, originally ex-bourbon casks granted to Jems by M&H, were in-turn used for the maturation of the Jems 8.8 – a strong Belgian ale style beer – which is characterized by fruity aromas, notes of caramel and pleasant bitterness. After 4-6 months, the beer was extracted and the casks returned to M&H, re-filled and matured to perfection for 3 years."

Milk & Honey APEX PX Sherry Cask
$179.99
Milk & Honey, or M&H to their buds, should be on everyone's radar by now. Their range is sprawling, the team has an eye to innovation, and maybe most importantly...they know how to handle casks that have previously held wine (including port and sherry). This is unquestionably the influence of the late Dr. Jim Swan, whose legacy will forever be secure based on the STR process alone. But none of that matters unless you have good spirit. Milk & Honey has good spirit.
The Apex range consists of the more experimental end of the M&H portfolio, and the single cask range with the Apex range takes that a step further in terms of oomph and intensity. This single PX Sherry Butt (#2018-0900) yielded just 544 bottles at the ripe ol' age of 3. In this sort of climate, you don't need a lot of years to reach a state of complexity.
Natural colour, non-chill-filtered, and bottled at 56.9% abv.
