From The Producer
"9 Years Old for this single malt Scotch Whisky aged and bottled in Scotland. A classic side of Caol Ila (Peat but not too peaty, savoury green vegetables, and seaweed). B amplified by the Ratafia Champenois touch… Beautifully smooth and hard to understand complexity. Taste bomb that begins and ends with peat in a dancing way. Oily and uplifting, with a texture that reaches all parts of the palate without being overpowering, giving it a perceived lightness. Phenolic citrus fruits and a long smoky finish on the palate amplified by the Ratafia Champenois touch… “The Dumangin Champagne Twist”…. A bouquet of ripe fruit, a hint of vanilla.."

Siegel Ketran
$91.99
Alberto Siegel and his father founded Viña Siegel in 1980. They started planting vineyards in Colchagua, eventually building a winery in Santa Cruz after years of selling bulk wine to large producers. The Colchagua Valley is located in the Central Zone of Chile. It's a 'transverse valley", which means that it is a valley formed by a river, in this case, the Tinguiririca, running east-to-west towards the ocean. The valley cuts out at a ridge or mountain at right angles. The Colchagua Valley is the leading fine-wine-producing region in Chile. In the Mapuche language, Ketran means “land ploughed by the fire resulting from volcanic activity.” This wine is born out of the inspiration of the volcanic soils that give birth to the vineyards in Los Lingues at the foot of the Cordillera de Los Andes, high Colchagua. It offers black fruit, mocha, toast, and spice with firm, chewy tannins. The wine will continue to improve with time in the cellar. It's a blend of 35% Syrah, 30% Petit Verdot, 25% Carmenere, and 10% Cabernet Franc grown on colluvial soil, clay, and a decomposition of volcanic rock. It's hand-picked, and aged in French oak barrels and left to age for 30 months and then another 12 months in bottle before release.
