Max Richter Elisenberg Kabinett
$46.99
The Elisenberg vineyard was planted by Richter ancestor Franz Ludwig Niessen following the Napoleonic Wars in 1815 and was named after the late but still-popular Queen Louisa of Prussia. The vineyard land was given to the Richter family as recompense (and as a thank-you) after Niessen saved the region from being sacked by Napoleon’s army. The town of Veldenz is located at the southern end of the prehistoric Mosel riverbed, south of Mülheim. The vineyard faces south and enjoys a cooler microclimate than vineyards located closer to the Mosel River. The grey slate terroir has rich layers of quartz that create a special style of wine. The Elisenberg Rieslings features a very long growing season and are dominated by flavours of wild berries: red and black currant, blackberry and raspberry. A complex acid structure adds to the long-lived, refined and delicate character of these wines.

Tequila Ocho Reposado Rancho Los Fresnos
$75.99
"Tequila Ocho takes the exploration of terroir in tequila a giant step forward by producing batches of tequila from single fields (ranchos), much the way fine Burgundy wine is produced. For example, in the village of Vosne Romanee in Burgundy, wine is produced with the following appellations: Les Beaux Monts, La Montagne and Aux Brulees to name a few. Tequila Ocho has done the same thing by producing in Arandas the following names: El Carrizal, Las Pomez and Los Corrales," according to the distillery team. "Los Fresnos is between 2068m and 2078m above sea level with red oxide soil. It is located adjacent to La Alteña, the distillery where Ocho is made. This is West of Arandas, near the town of Jesus Maria. Los Fresnos is a large field with Ocho production using around 1/3 of its size."
Tasting notes from the distillery for the Los Fresnos Reposado:
Color – Pale straw.
Aroma – Extra ripe cooked agave, butterscotch, toffee, banana, apple, pancake batter, pepper, vanilla cake frosting.
Palate – Hint of mint, green chlorophyll, mineral, maple, coffee, caramel, toffee, and strawberry.
