Val D'Oca Uvaggio Storico Prosecco
$29.99
Set amongst the rolling foothill of the Venetian Prealps, Val D’Oca prides itself in its location, an epicenter for prosecco production as well as possibly one of the most scenic locales in the Treviso area.
With a history dating back to 1952, Val D’Oca established itself as a consortium encapsulating 576 growers and over 700 hectares of vineyards. Widely regarded as one of Northern Italy’s largest wine makers, Val D’Oca has become a golden standard for high quality Prosecco production. Similarly a primary concern for the consortium is to represent its members, showcasing their wines in domestic and international markets alike.
Val D’Oca’s emphasis on technology, with a current renewal of most of its systems used to monitor harvest conditions, have resulted in an unprecedented approach to winemaking that is seldom seen throughout Italian viniculture. With over half of the consortium’s wine production comprised of the Glera grape, used mostly for white wines, Val D’Oca has focused on this variety, furthering their research in regards to their DOCG and DOC Prosecco’s.

Painted Rock Chardonnay
$58.99
Painted Rock began with John and Trish Skinner’s belief that the Okanagan Valley had enormous, largely unrealized, potential. While the area was long known for producing some of the world’s finest fruit, it was the wines produced from the 1980s “Vinifera Program” (where vineyards were paid to remove high-producing, inferior hybrids and plant vinifera) that convinced the Skinners that the Okanagan would one day be an internationally recognized wine region. John knew that if they wanted to be involved, and make an impact, they had to move quickly. The goal was simple: find the best property and apply the most aggressive mandate for quality. Their extensive search took nearly three years and ended when they found “The Black Hawk”, a spectacular 56-acre bench on Skaha Lake in Penticton. In 2004 they purchased what was once “the largest apricot orchard in the British Commonwealth”. The orchard had been felled in the 1980s and had lain fallow since. Detailed analysis of the property occurred for the next year while the site was prepared and the property was planted in 2005. Envisioned as a family-run estate winery, the assumption was that this could be some of the finest “terroir” in the world and it was their job to deliver on its promise. From expertise to equipment to mandate the commitment was and remains uncompromising. According to John Skinner, “If Painted Rock is going to compete with the best in the world we must have confidence in our terroir and allow it to express its uniqueness. That's why we are 100% Estate."

The second release in the Balvenie Stories is the Week of Peat, a 14 year old single malt made from a run of heavily peated barley. Almost certainly matured in American oak, though that is not specified. 48.3%.
Producer Description
"Eager to experiment with The Balvenie profile using what he had learnt from a recent trip to Islay, distillery manager Ian Millar ordered a batch of Speyside peat for the kiln. For a week a year, The Balvenie distills a batch of peated malt, resulting in a whisky rich in honey, vanilla and citrus notes with an extra layer of delicate smokiness."

"Our fourth release has been matured predominantly in first-fill sherry seasoned European oak casks, along with first-fill sherry seasoned American oak casks, a small quantity of refill casks, ex-bourbon casks and – for the first time – ex-port casks too. Bottled straight from the cask, without the addition of water to reduce alcohol content, our Cask Strength series marries the traditional craft of whisky making with a modern approach to flavour exploration."
