Great Gruner from Trentino!

 New Arrival from Italy! Perfect for the patio!!

Abbazia di Novacella Gruner Veltliner...$21.99

Several TWCP employees attended the biggest trade tasting in STL this summer and of all the high-end wines we tried (we are talking multiple tables of $200+ bottles) this humble Gruner was seriously one of the most memorable for us! This is a perfect wine for winding down the summer and will pair nicely with your backyard garden harvest.

The monastery that produces this wine is in the northernmost winemaking region in Italy, and has been making wine for over 850 years! 

Aromas of canteloupe, Granny Smith apple and smoke follow over to the vibrant palate along with lemon drop, white pepper and wild herb. Bright acidity and flinty mineral notes impart fabulous energy.
Rated 92/100 Wine Enthusiast

The Abbazia di Novacella 2021 Alto Adige Valle Isarco Grüner Veltliner is an open-knit white with peach, pineapple and baked apple. This medium-weight wine closes with a silky texture and a lean finish. Three-quarters of the must is fermented and aged in stainless steel and one-quarter goes into large oak casks. The vines are rooted in glacier soils with quartz and other mineral deposits. Best after 2022.

Total Wine and More lists the 2023 at $144.99 in STL

The Macallan Classic Cut - 2024 Edition has been bottled at 52.4% ABV and features notes of vanilla, tropical fruit and lemon.

This whisky is anything but classic. ​This exceptional single malt has been matured in a combination of sherry seasoned European and American oak, and ex-bourbon casks.​

Limerick Lane Estate Cuvee

2018 Limerick Lane Estate Cuvee....$85.99
63% Zinfandel, 27% Syrah, and 10% Petite Sirah
There are 15 barrels of the 2018 Estate Cuvee, which is a blend of 63% Zinfandel, 27% Syrah, and the balance Petite Sirah. More closed aromatically and dark, dense, and meaty (no doubt due to the Syrah and Petite Sirah), it slowly gives up loads of black and blue fruits, ground pepper, brambly herbs, and cedar. Rich, full-bodied, and concentrated on the palate, it offers a more mouthfilling, powerful style compared to the other Zinfandels in the lineup, yet stays classic, balanced, and structured. Give it a year or three.
Rated 96+/100 Jeb Dunnuck

Daou Sequents Reserve Merlot

2021 Daou Sequentis Reserve Merlot...$49.99

Rated 93/100 The Wine Enthusiast

2022 Bella Union Rutherford Sauvignon Blanc...$32.99

Non Alcoholic RUM
Zero Proof
We are thrilled to officially introduce… Ritual Rum Alternative.
Whether by land or by sea, rum is the perfect partner to a day of fun in the sun. But festive tropical beverages can take a lot out of you. That’s why we created Ritual Rum Alternative. Because we love rum and everything that goes with it. Citrus and swizzle straws. Long walks on the beach. Summer in winter and summer in... summer. But we also love balance. A non-alcoholic daiquiri, mai tai or punch is the perfect third drink to keep the party going, and keep your sea legs. It’s the cruise without the booze. The navy without the grog. The hurricane without the aftermath. And it just might be our best spirit alternative to date.Ritual Zero Proof Tequila Alternative...$25.99
Non Alcoholic Tequila
Zero Proof
With a score of 94 points from the industry-standard Beverage Testing Institute, Ritual Tequila Alternative takes gold to become the highest ranking non-alcoholic spirit in the world.
One tequila, two tequila? Yas! Three tequila... maybe make it a Ritual.
Our Tequila Alternative brings the heat. With a score of 94 points from the Beverage Testing Institute, it’s the highest rated nonalcoholic spirit in the world. 
Made with margaritas in mind, this golden-hued beauty balances flavors of traditional agave, charred oak and bright Mexican lime. The finish is clean and spicy, with a kiss of cracked sea salt for good measure.
Whether you’re looking for a truly skinny margarita or the perfect all-day Paloma, just substitute Ritual for traditional tequila in any recipe, close your eyes, and pretend you’re on a beach.*
* This works especially well if you are actually on a beach.Ritual Zero Proof Gin Alternative...$25.99
Non Alcoholic Gin
Zero Proof
Our gin alternative is flavor-forward. English cucumber and juniper berries hit the top notes. A mix of all-natural botanical flavors shimmy in the middle. And mint and basil round out the bottom. Consequently, it stiffens tonic and every kind of juice, but it also loves soda and a slice of lime. Shaken and served with a twist is one of our personal favorites. You really can’t go wrong.Ritual mixes 1:1 in all gin cocktails. It does the bright, crisp job of gin, only without alcohol or calories. You’ll taste plenty of organic herbs and florals, though, and a satisfying heat that lingers on the tongue and back of the palate.Made for those who are working, driving, training, dieting, parenting, staying out later or getting up early.Ritual Zero Proof Whiskey Alternative...$25.99
Non Alcoholic Whiskey
Zero Proof
In an Old Fashioned or Manhattan, our all-natural botanicals marry happily with orange, bitters and vermouth. On the rocks, the first thing you might notice is the fragrance of American Oak, sugar floss and vanilla. In a glass by itself, organic peppercorn and hemp carry a pleasant inner warmth. And hey, if you wanna swig it straight from the bottle rock star-style, it’ll play power chords on your tongue.However you choose to enjoy it (and we’re all about choice) Ritual whiskey alternative delivers the taste and burn of good whiskey, only with no alcohol or morning hangover. It mixes 1:1 in all whiskey cocktails, and you could count its calories on two hands.So you can stay sharp and still have fun, hit the gym, go to work, be a parent, live your life.
