4 Hands Madagascar....$15.99

Oskar Blues Hotbox Coffee Porter...$10.99 / 4pk

Firestone Walker Nineteen...$19.99
During the dog days of the autumn grape harvest, thirsty overworked winemakers are fond of saying, “It takes a lot of beer to make great wine.” But at Firestone Walker Brewing Company, the opposite is also true. Each August, we invite close local winemaker friends to help us blend our next Anniversary Ale from as many as eight separate barrel-­‐aged component beers. Their input is invaluable, as this project is all about creating cohesion and complexity from an array of diverse beers. The result is a masterful blend, the sum being greater than the parts.

Final Blend:
Parabola (13% ABV) Aged in Bourbon Barrels: 33.33% of the final blend
Stickee Monkee (12.3% ABV) Aged in Bourbon and Brandy Barrels: 33.33% of the final blend
Bravo (12.9% ABV) Aged in Bourbon and Brandy Barrels: 16.66% of the final blend
Velvet Merkin (8.5% ABV) Aged in Bourbon Barrels: 16.66% of the final blend

The Finished Piece
As a finished beer, XIX is a rich, chocolaty, chewy brew with brandy-soaked raisin and holiday fruitcake flavors. The blend is anchored by equal parts Stickee Monkee and Parabola, which combine to create a dense chocolate truffle-like base. Velvet Merkin and Bravo lend their spicy oak, leather and fruity accents to complete the brew. The beer is unfiltered and unfined so there will be a small amount of sediment in the bottom of the bottle. XIX is best enjoyed poured carefully into a half-filled brandy snifter or wine glass. Allow it to warm to 55F to fully enjoy the pleasing and complex aromas.

Sudwerk Rye of the Lager Imperial Lager...$6.99 / 22oz
ABV: 7.0%
With craft beer shelves dominated by IPAs, some consumers are looking for something different. That’s why Sudwerk Brewing Co. created Rye of the Lager, an IPL it calls “a needle in the shelf stack.”

“It’s the first rye India Pale Lager available at stores on the West Coast that I’m aware of,” said Trent Yackzan, co-owner of the 25-year-old brewery that is redefining the American lager.

With ales, naturally occurring esters can at times compete against other ingredients, especially in the finish. That’s not the case here. In contrast, lager yeast provides a platform to let the other ingredients shine through. Stone fruit aromatics combine with lemon and pepper flavors, a pleasant blend of spice, and a bold finish. The fruity, subtle flavor from Simcoe and Amarillo hops balances with the dry spiciness of the rye. (7.0 ABV, 70 IBU)

Rye of the Lager is the culmination of more than a year of trial batches, in search of the perfect balance. Last fall’s small batch released at the Sudwerk taproom, The Dock, was so well received, “we knew this was the beer that should become our next year-round West Coast lager,” Yackzan said.

90 Point Blanc de Blancs from Thevenet

NV Thevenet Blanc de Balncs....$23.99

Thevenet's Champagne look-alike, the N.V. Blanc de Blancs Chardonnay Brut is a delicious, frothy, light-bodied, ripe, super-clean, and expressive, dry Chardonnay. It possesses an attractive honeyed note for added richness, but the overall impression is one of gorgeously fresh, light, effervescent Chardonnay presented in a light-bodied, delicate format. Drink it over the next several years. Thevenet is one of the bright shining stars of the Maconnais, producing wines of much higher quality than readers might expect can be achieved in this vast ocean of vineyards just north of Lyon.

Rated 90/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Grower Champagne

Bertrand-Delespierre Grower Champagne

As an RM ("Recoltant Manipulant" - the French term for Grower's Champagne), Bertrand-Delespierre makes Champagnes exclusively from its own vineyards. 

 

2004 Bertrand Delespierre Millesime Premier Cru Brut...$59.99
"The 2004 Brut Vintage impresses for its sheer energy, power and focus. Mint, flowers, pear and hazelnuts are just some of aromas and flavors that inform the vibrant finish. This is a classy effort from start to finish. The 2004 Brut is equal parts Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Disgorged June 2010. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2016." - Rated 91/100 The Wine Advocate


"A broad-shouldered Champagne, open-knit and accessible, with flavors of pastry, glazed apple and pear, honey, candied lemon zest and vanilla. Ends with a juicy, lightly smoky finish. Drink now through 2016. –AN" - Rated 91/100 The Wine Spectator

Delamotte - from the famous Champagne House of Salon

Owned be the famous Champagne producer Salon!!
2004 Delamotte Blanc de Blancs Le Mesnil...$99.99
Delamotte's 2004 Blanc de Blancs has shut down quite a bit over the last six months. The flavors are bright, chiseled and finely-cut, as they have always been, in a gorgeous expression of Chardonnay. Lemon peel, white flowers, green pears and crushed rocks shine on the precise, crystalline finish.
Rated 94/100 Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media

NV Delamotte Blanc de Blancs Les Mesnil...$57.99
Light yellow. Mineral-tinged peach, melon and pear aromas display excellent clarity, picking up a subtle floral quality with aeration. Supple and seamless on the palate, offering vivid honeydew and pit fruit flavors accented by a vibrant lemon zest quality. Finishes very long, silky and precise, with an echo of juicy melon and strong mineral lift.

Rated 92/100 Josh Raynolds, Vinous Media

Limerick Lane Zinfandel - limited

2013 Limerick Lane Russian River Zinfandel...$35.99

The 2013 Zinfandel from the Russian River is another sexy wine, and one of their largest production cuvées of just under 2,000 cases. It finished at 14.6% alcohol and shows plenty of classic Mediterranean roasted herbs, pepper, spice and full-bodied blackberry and cherry fruit. It’s a classic Zinfandel, very pure, impressively crafted and should drink nicely for up to a decade.

Limerick Lane is now owned by the Bilbro family that has made Marietta Cellars such a successful wine producer. They took this once famous, then down-on-its-luck property, purchased it, and are now producing some incredible wines from the 30 acres of relatively old-vine Zinfandel, Syrah and Rhône grape blends in what is considered a relatively cool area. Starting with the much-maligned 2011 harvest, Jake and Scot Bilbro have already built a loyal following for these intense, but incredibly pure and interesting wines. When I saw them in late August, they had already finished about 75% of the 2015 harvest, the earliest by a long shot in their long family history. In any event, here are some very impressive wines, all pretty realistically priced for what’s in the bottle.

If you haven’t caught on to the magic that is emerging from Limerick Lane, it’s about time.

2004 Recaredo Reserva Particular Brut Gran Reserva

2004 Recaredo Reserva Particular Brut Gran Reserva...$107.99
The 2004 Brut de Brut Gran Reserva Brut Nature is a blend of 67% Macabeu and 33% Xarello from three vineyards on calcareous soils (Can Romeu, Can Rossell and Pedra Blanca). The first fermentation is done in oak casks and was bottled in spring 2005, remaining for 79 months on its lees before disgorgement on December 15, 2011. It offers a very precise bouquet that unfurls in the glass to reveal tantalizing hints of white truffle and a touch of rosemary. The palate is very precise and beautifully balanced with subtle white peach and quince notes, this Cava struck through with razor-sharp acidity that leads to the wild honey-tinged finish. There is a sense of completeness to this outstanding Cava that is well worth the price when you consider the price of Champagne. Drink now-2016+

Very limited Macallan

Macallan Reflexion...$1199.99 / 750ml

The 2015 debuts of Reflexion and No. 6  will likely mark the completion of the series. The naturally colored and flavored spirits will also represent perhaps the darkest and most concentrated sherry-aged whiskies in the Macallan’s history. “As you move through the 1824 series,” says Ken Grier, director of malts at the Macallan’s parent company, the Edrington Group, “each expression becomes increasingly dark and more complex, reflecting the careful selection of exceptional casks.”
For Reflexion, the Macallan’s master whisky maker, Bob Dalgarno, primarily selected whiskies matured in first-fill sherry-seasoned oak. A high proportion of those whiskies were aged in smaller hogshead casks, a process that intensifies color and flavor because the relatively larger surface area of wood interacts more with the distillate. A small percentage of American oak–aged whiskies combined with the sherry-aged spirits to create a final product with strong floral and citrus notes intertwined with fresh apple, raisin, and apricot flavors. - Robb Report

This final, fleeting Committee bottling of Ardbeg Supernova heralds the culmination of Ardbeg’s experiment in space. Its release coincides with the publication of Dr Bill Lumsden’s highly anticipated White Paper on the mysteries of zero gravity maturation.

TASTING NOTES
A big bang of peat… then heavenly sweet… with a lingering trail of smoke.
Colour: Shimmering pale gold
Nose: A shower of peppery, aromatic herbs shoots through the air, scattering particles of effervescent perfume. In its wake, smoked fruits, briny seaweed and fennel. The sensation comes full circle with the earthy, grounding aroma of vetiver root. Add a few drops of water and luscious linseed oil comes to the surface, sending wafts of sweet smoked toffee, brazil nuts and soot into the atmosphere.
Taste: At 100ppm, the peat is firing on all cylinders, with blasts of spice, salted caramel and billowing smoke. And then it’s back to the laboratory, where antiseptic lozenges, medicinal notes and zingy aniseed intermingle with dark tar and intense chilli-spice.
Finish: Prepare for a long, lingering, peppery aftertaste that goes on and on and on…

Pappy Van Winkle is impossible to get...
Check out his quote from Julian Van Winkle (yes, of Pappy Van Winkle)

You Don't Need Pappy. Really. Even Pappy Says So.
Julian Van Winkle, maker of Pappy Van Winkle, offers alternatives to his cultishly popular hooch. "My first pick? That'd be seven-year-old W.L. Weller. It's very close to ours, sweet and a lot of caramel. If you can't get that, try Maker's 46. It's a little more interesting, with that extra French-oak aging that they use. Third would be Four Roses, the single-barrel. And if that's not available, then I'm gonna go drink vodka." - GC Magazine article
