Meadowview Botanical Gin

Made in Missouri!

Meadowview Botanical Gin...$31.99
The idea for this gin was dreamed up while Jason and Mitchell were both living on Meadowview Avenue in Springfield, Missouri. They wanted to create a spirit that embodied those wonderful suburban summer evenings spent by the pool and at backyard barbecues with family and friends.

They partnered with the team at Pinckney Bend Distillery to bring to life a botanical gin that’s distinct yet well balanced. Of course you’ll taste the juniper right off the bat, and after that you’ll notice the sweet orange and lemon. Then the rest of the 12 botanicals come together for a nice little medley that ends with notes of lavender and sage.

A CELEBRATORY BOURBON
WELL WORTH THE WAIT
Twenty-Five years ago, when Booker Noe bottled the first batch of Knob Creek® bourbon, he inadvertently started a small batch movement. A quarter century later, Booker’s son Fred Noe carries on his legacy, holding every barrel to the same rigorous Pre-Prohibition style standards. And to this day, Knob Creek® remains the benchmark for full-flavored bourbon.

To celebrate the staying power of hard-earned flavor, we’re bottling a limited edition, unfiltered* and cask strength single barrel bourbon. This bourbon is truly a high point in Knob Creek®’s proud history. This is our first ever bourbon bottled at barrel strength. Now you can experience the exceptional flavor profile of these personally selected barrels as if you were at the warehouse in Clermont: uncut and unblended.

Firestone Walker Bretta Rose

Firestone Walker Bretta Rose...$11.99 / 375ml
Thirty miles north of Barrelworks lies the fertile Santa Maria Valley. Its warm days and cool marine layer-fed evenings allow for a cornucopia of fruits and vegetables to be grown in its rich soil. One of Santa Maria’s crown jewels is locally grown raspberries. We jumped at the opportunity to ferment fresh local raspberries with one of our Barrelworks creations. Behold Bretta Rosé! A low-alcohol Berliner Weisse style ale, acidified and matured in French oak puncheons for 6 months, is the foundation for this gem. Add 1000 lbs. of fresh raspberries, allow a secondary wild fermentation for 4 more months and voila (!), we have a crisp effervescent concoction, bursting with raspberry perfume and flavor, a rosé color, bracing acidity, and a clean and refreshing finish.

Chateau Tour Bel Air Haut Medoc Plenitude

Great 2015 Bordeaux Vintage

Robert Parker Rated the 2015 Vintage of Bordeaux 95/100 as a whole.

2015 Chateau Tour Bel Air Haut Medoc Plenitude...$21.99

In 2006, four friends, agricultural engineers, joined forces to buy Médoc vines in Cissac: The Château Tour Bel Air, with its appellation Haut Médoc, vintage craftsmanship, human-scale vineyard of seven and one-half hectares of vines.  The terroir is five kilometers away from the Gironde, near Saint Estèphe and Pauillac. The grape varietals consist mainly of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The cultivation of the vineyard is conducted reasonably and traditionally: low vines with high density, double guyot trimming, partially manual leaf stripping.  We very carefully cultivate the vines in order to protect the plants. The harvest is done partly by hand for the old vines, among friends, and the rest with the help of machines. The grapes macerate for about five to six weeks in tanks. The wine is then vinified for twenty months, including ten months in oak barrels.

Chateau Allegret Bordeaux Rouge - great 2016 vintage

Great Vintage in Bordeaux. The Wine Spectator rated the vintage as a whole 94-97/100

2016 Chateau Allegret Bordeaux Rouge....$13.99

This beautiful Bordeaux wine reigns from the heart of the Entre-Deux-Mers region in Bordeaux at the beautiful winery of Chateau Allégret, situated on clay slopes and limestone.   Chateau Allégret presents a traditional expression of a classic Bordeaux wine. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot gives the wine bright and rich red fruits, such as black currants and fresh berries. Layered with the dry tannins and concentrated texture, while balanced with its acidity and minerality, this wine drinks beautifully from start to the structured finish.

Horgelus Côtes Gascogne Blanc

2017 Horgelus Côtes Gascogne Blanc....$9.99  

50% Sauvignon and 50% Gros Manseng 
We have been looking for a great Cotes to Gascogne Blanc for awhile.  Many are just boring and insipid.  We finally found a new one that is exciting and vibrant!

The estate is run now by Yoan Le Menn, his son. Yoan represents the younger generation of oenologists who work tirelessly to combine modernity and experience.   The biggest task is preserving of the aromas by limiting, as much as possible, all forms of oxidation of the “must” and the wines. For this reason the grapes are harvested early in the morning – from 3am to 11 am – in order to take advantage of the cool air. On the other hand, the carbon dioxide from the alcoholic fermentation is recuperated to protect the newly pressed juice. From the grape to the bottling process, everything is designed to preserve the fruity flavors and freshness of our wines.

They installed a meteorological station, solar panels and started the collection of rain water.  In 2011, the Chéty Family became a member of the first Association in Bordeaux to be ISO certified 14001. A far-reaching Environmental Program includes the reduction of energy use, CO2 emissions and water consumption. We also maintain a high level of safety for our team.
