Kilchoman Sanaig 50ml
$20.99
The Kilchoman Sanaig was featured on Day Ten of our 2022 KWM Whisky Calendar. You can find the blog post on it here.
Also available in full-size bottles
The Sanaig is part of Kilchoman's regular release lineup along with the Machir Bay. Kilchoman Sanaig, which is named after an Inlet off the NorthWest coast of Islay, is made from a combination of about 20% ex-Bourbon casks and 80% ex-Sherry Casks - mostly Oloroso Sherry in style. We have noticed the colour on this dram has gotten a fair bit darker over the past few years - possibly due to more first-fill ex-Sherry casks being used... Bottled at 46%.
Torbreck Woodcutters Rose
$35.99
Chateau Les Fiefs de Lagrange
$71.99
Most of the top Chateaux in Bordeaux produce a "second label" wine, and in this case, it's from the illustrious Chateau Lagrange. Created in 1983, “les Fiefs de Lagrange” is so much more than a second wine. Produced from young vines (with an average age of 30 years) and planted on fine gravel soils for the Cabernet Sauvignon and clay for the Merlot, it bears more than a passing resemblance to its big brother.

Meerendal Heritage Block Pinotage Old
$69.99
Meerendal Wine Estate is a family-owned vineyard situated in the Western Cape of South Africa, only 20 minutes from Cape Town. This historic estate dates back to 1702, but the wine journey for the current owners, the Coertze family, began in 2004 when they invested in Meerendal and became part of its prestigious history. Heritage Block Pinotage has a very deep, almost opaque purple colour. Spicy red and black fruit aromas are supported by strong bramble-type characters on the initial nose. Prune, plum and ripe dark cherry follow with a backing of rich fruit cake, spice and sweet vanilla. There's a big, full, and well-rounded mouth-feel with a satiny texture that flows across the palate, with ripe, supple tannins underneath. It's already showing good complexity, but has lots more development to come. Very attractive now, but will repay some patient bottle maturation over the next half dozen years. If Meerendal history is anything to go by, this wine should continue to develop for easily 12 to 15 years.
Cotswolds Sherry Cask Single Malt
$123.99
According to the Cotswolds team, this one is "American and Spanish oak hogsheads and butts, seasoned with Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez sherry." They also qualify that by saying it's entirely sherry cask matured (don't let the American oak throw you off) full the entire term. It's rather brilliant seeing England back in the single malt game, no? The English whisky renaissance is going to be fun to watch.
