2017 Vietti Barolo Ravera
2017 Vietti Barolo Ravera....$139.98
Located in Novello, from three hectares of the Ravera MGA with southwest exposure, the 2017 Barolo Ravera was aged for 32 months in large oak casks. It is forward and expressive with fresh pine, candied cranberry, orange oil, and aniseed. The palate is full of energetic tension, balance, and purity, with apricot pit, tea leaf and saline minerality. An inspiring wine to close out the Vietti 2017 lineup. Drink 2025-2050.

Linie Authentic Original Aquavit
Linie Authentic Original Aquavit is a traditional Norwegian spirit
Base Spirit: Made from neutral grain or potato spirit, infused with a blend of spices and botanicals, with caraway being the dominant flavor. Other botanicals include dill, fennel, anise, and coriander.
Aging Process: What sets Linie Aquavit apart is its unique aging journey. The aquavit is aged in oak sherry casks and undergoes a literal voyage around the world. This means it crosses the equator (the "linie") twice during its maturation process. The constant motion, changing temperatures, and exposure to sea air are believed to enhance the spirit's complexity.
Flavor Profile: It has a smooth, slightly oily texture with prominent notes of caraway and anise, complemented by hints of vanilla, oak, and dried fruit from the sherry cask aging.
Serving Suggestions: Linie Aquavit is traditionally served chilled as a digestif or with Nordic cuisine, especially seafood or pickled dishes. It's also used in cocktails for a unique twist.
History
Linie Aquavit traces its origins to the early 19th century. Its signature aging process was discovered by chance when barrels of aquavit sent to Southeast Asia returned to Norway significantly improved in flavor. Since then, the journey has become an essential part of the production process.
