Amaro Ramazzotti
$26.99
Made from a 200-year-old recipe! An Italian classic! Amaro is an Italian bitters, commonly served as a digestif after a big meal. It's generally served neat, without adding anything except perhaps a wedge of orange on the side. That said, it can be very refreshing with a bit of ice, or perhaps some tonic water or club soda. Amaro is made by crushing various herbs, bark and citrus in alcohol, and then adding sugar syrup. The mixture is then aged in bottle or wood.
Montes Sauvignon Blanc
$19.99
A very fruity Sauvignon Blanc! Prominent gooseberry flavours with hints of asparagus and a splash of vanilla. Good start to any occasion or meal.
Chapoutier La Bernadine Chateauneuf
$58.99
Since Michel Chapoutier (one of the most highly regarded winemakers in France) took control of this long-established firm in 1988, quality has soared. All the vineyards are now run on biodynamic principles. Chapoutier's La Bernardine is quite unique in that it is made up of only 1 -3 grape varieties when 13 are allowed by AOC law. At such low yields, Michel produces a rich, flavorful wine with moderate tannins.
Argiolas Costera Cannonau di Sardegna
$32.99
The Argiolas Costera is made from 100% Cannonau (Grenache) and is testimony to the quality of wine produced from this varietal. This "beauty" from Sardinia is ripe and jammy, and loaded with mouth-filling flavours of kirsch, black cherry and truffle. A delicious choice for a myriad of dishes ranging from poultry and grilled meats to sausages.
Glenlivet 15 Year
$95.99
Replacing the 12 year French Oak Cask is the Glenlivet 15 Year, matured in new French oak casks. It is beautifully structured with all the fruit and spice of the original, yet is slightly more woody and sweet. Well-balanced with a long, creamy finish. Very Nice!
Mulderbosch Sauvignon Blanc
$24.99
A bronze medal winner from the San Francisco International Wine Competition, and "commended" from the International Wine Challenge. And 88 points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, too. The review: "The 2012 Sauvignon Blanc is blended with 8% Semillon and sees extended lees contact in barrel. It has plenty of green pepper, nettle and asparagus scents on the nose that has plenty of personality too. The palate is well-balanced with gooseberry and asparagus on the entry, a fine line of acidity and a slightly phenolic finish that just needs a little more tension. Otherwise, this is a fine Sauvignon Blanc. Drink now."
Torbreck Woodcutters Shiraz
$35.99
Torbreck is a new breed of winery making wine from very old vines in very small batches. This Woodcutters Shiraz is a bit of a departure. Rather than the battle hardened old warriors which make up the heart and soul of the established Torbreck range, this refreshing red was bottled under screwcap for the first time in 2003. You don't have to be a woodcutter to enjoy this one after a hard day's work!
Arran Gold Cream Liqueur
$39.99
An Arran Distillery twist on a cream liqueur for those looking to expand beyond Irish Cream and the like.
Distiller's Tasting Note
Nose: Chocolate, cassis, a wee touch of fresh mint
Palate: Sweetness, Honey.
