2022 Château Canon - St.-Emilion...PERFECT

Perfect 100 by to strict reviewers!

2022 Château Canon - St.-Emilion...$249.99
75% Merlot
The 2022 Canon has turned out brilliantly in bottle. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of sweet raspberries, wild berries and cherries mingled with hints of violets, pencil shavings, black truffle and rose petals, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a dense, enveloping core of fruit underpinned by a chassis of sweet, suave tannins, concluding with a long, saline finish....

2022 Leonetti Walla Walla Merlot....$64.99 / 750ml
Compare to $129.99 at Total Wine and More
Compare to $129.99 at Wine.com
All Merlot aged in once-filled and neutral oak, the 2022 Merlot sports a vivid ruby/purple hue as well as solid aromatics of ripe black cherries, cedary herbs, dried flowers, and a kiss of background oak. It's medium to full-bodied, has a pure, elegant mouthfeel, polished tannins, and a great finish. It will keep from 10-12 years with ease.
Rated 94/100 Jeb Dunnuck
I like the chocolate and Oreo cookie aromas to the black plum fruit. Oranges and bay leaves, too. It’s full-bodied, full of character and expansive on the palate, with a toasty, firm tannin frame. Remains elegant. 100% merlot. Drink from 2025.
Rated 94/100 James Suckling
Deeply colored and extracted for a Merlot, the 2022 Walla Walla Merlot displays mocha notes with plum and blackberry compote with soft notions of brown baking spices that sway from the glass with a firm, mineral essence. Full-bodied, the palate is still tight with firm,. gripping tannins that will release with additional years in the cellar yet will remain food-friendly for the next decade. The wine spent 15 months in a mix of new and used French oak and neutral botti. 23,448 bottles were made.
Rated 93+/100 The Wine Advocate

2023 Shafer Napa Valley Merlot

A classic back!

2023 Shafer Napa Valley Merlot....$89.99
Polished and well-structured, with handsome red and black currant flavors highlighted by spices including cinnamon, plus a touch of tomato leaf, as this persists toward refined tannins. Drink now through 2033. 1,300 cases made.
Rated 93/100 The Wine Spectator
This is sitting on the edge of reduction with aromas of bitter chocolate, dried herbs, ink, cured meats and graphite. The midweight palate shows densely packed dark fruit and tightly wound tannins. Needs a little more time in bottle with some air before drinking. Drinkable now but best from 2027.

Changeling is an enchanting blend of dark sour ales aged in previously used wine and whiskey barrels, and inoculated with Lactobacillus.

Taste these 4 amazing wines!!

2024 Pieropan Soave Classico $22.99
Perfumed wine with citrus and minerality, forthright, intense and focused. Medium-bodied, vibrant and savory, it displays super-cool freshness and weight, with a polished finish. One of the top Italian whites for quality-per-price ratio. Drink now.
Rated 95/100 James Suckling

2022 Allegrini Palazzo Della Torre $18.99
An intense wine with multilayered fruit, showing sour cherries, blackberries, plums, vibrant black pepper and nicely integrated vanilla. Chewy on the palate. Crisp, long acidity and firm, chalky tannins are well balanced with the fruit in the medium-bodied, savory finish.
Rated 92/100 James Suckling

2020 Zenato Ripasso $29.99
An aromatic, savory streak of tarry smoke and leather offers a subtle underpinning for the rich mesh of Amarena cherry, cured tobacco, licorice and warm spices on display in this harmonious red, with supple, well-knit tannins. Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone. Drink now through 2030.
Rated 92/100 The Wine Spectator


2012 Bertani Amarone $147.99
Wow. Such a complex nose, with a base of dried cherry, spruced up with hints of mild coffee and walnuts. Then there are dried flowers, wild herbs and spices, such as tarragon and cloves. Subtle hints of dried banana and apricot, too. The palate is full, super sleek, intense and well-balanced, with tight, spice-coated tannins that drive everything forward. Long, long finish. Lovely to taste now, but this already almost ten-year-old will sit comfortably in your cellar for a long while yet.

Willett Straight 4 Year Cask Strength Rye Whiskey...$62.99 / 750ml
(proof varies)
The barrels that went into this small batch combined to make an amazing drinker.
Nose- Beautiful layering of brandied cherry over a mildly tart cherry. It opens up with time and is reminiscent of cutting into your dessert with your fork which releases cinnamon and baking spices with just a hint of oak to remind you that this is high proof youthful.
Palette- A robust rye with dark cherry, burnt vanilla, and spices for days. It's a delicious rye with a weighty mouthfeel.

Willett Distillery Pot Still Bourbon...$49.99 / 750ml
Willett Distillery Pot Still Bourbon...$94.99 / 1.75 liter
47% alc./vol. (94 proof)


Old Bardstown Tan Label 90...$24.99
90 proof
A classic Bourbon. On the nose, caramel, oak, vanilla, and just a hint of floral notes. The palate follows with more of the same. A softer style Bourbon, this is a great gateway dram to converting someone to becoming a Bourbon drinker.
This was the crazy right up many years ago that put this one on the map!
Believe it or not, this bourbon came close in taste, texture and smell to the more expensive, virtually impossible to find Pappy Van Winkle 20-Year Old Kentucky Bourbon. Wonderful rich, honeyed, caramel, toffee, maple syrup, wood spice, smoke and vanilla notes are found in this full-bodied, broad, rich, medium amber/tawny-colored bourbon. 94 points
Rated 94/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate

Old Bardstown Kentucky Straight Bourbon Estate Bottled....$35.99
50.5% alc./vol. (101 proof)

Bill Thomas, Jack Rose Dining Saloon

Johnny Drum Private Stock Bourbon 101 Proof...$37.99
Nose: Intensity – 2.5; Pine trees, campfire smoke, takes on a wonderful single malt nose when water is added

Timber Ales Blended Fields Barrel Blended Imperial Stout....$7.99 / 12oz can
Timber Ales Blended Fields Barrel Blended Imperial Stout....$27.99 / 4pk 12oz can

13.4% ABV
Barrel Blended Imperial Stout conditioned on Vanilla beans and Fall spices.
Timber Ales Blended Fields Barrel Blended Imperial Stout is a decadent exploration of depth and seasonal warmth, crafted by marrying carefully selected barrels into one harmonious whole. This bold imperial stout is then conditioned on Madagascar vanilla beans and a medley of fall spices, layering silky sweetness with comforting notes of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. Rich and velvety on the palate, Blended Fields delivers waves of dark chocolate, roasted malt, and oak character, finishing with a lingering spice-kissed sweetness. It’s a luxurious pour designed for crisp evenings, holiday gatherings, or whenever you crave a barrel-aged stout with both power and finesse.

Opus One 2022

2022 Opus One Overture Red....$195.99 / 750ml
"2nd label of Opus One"
The first time specific blocks have been used for this wine. Dark forest berry notes on the nose with perfumed elements and notes of milk chocolate. Supple and agile, generous with textured, slightly grainy tannins that are so pleasant - expansive and round in the mouth. It's well built and very approachable with blackcurrant and black cherry flavours on the palate. Concentrated, deep and layered but still with elegance. Extremely characterful. A blend of the 2018 and 2019 vintages with 18 months ageing in French oak barrels. 1% Petit Verdot completes the blend.
Rated 93/100 Decanter

2022 Opus One Overture Red....$489.99 / 750ml
The 2022 Opus One is a blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, 4% Merlot, 1% Cabernet Franc, and 1% Malbec. Winemaker Michael Silacci explained that this vintage marked the earliest pick ever at Opus One, beginning on 5 September. 'I saw a tsunami of heat coming and said we will pick.' Silacci added that the rush to pick reminded him of a line in the song 'Umbrella' by Jay-Z and Rihanna: 'We fly higher than the weather, in G5's or better... in anticipation...' And given the heat dome that settled over Napa Valley, it seemed a wise decision—deep ruby colour with a purple-tawny rim in the glass. The aromas are high-toned with cassis and graphite, and a cinnamon-dusted red berry character nuanced by the woody, spicy aromas of just-cut rose stems balanced by fresh rose petals and dark chocolate. On the palate, it's a creamy wine with a bit more satin or velvet texture than the 2021, and a touch more sweetness in the berry fruit, but balanced by the textural integrity of the tannins. The finish is sweetly floral and tamed by a salty mineral quality that lingers. There's a real brightness to this wine as it opens in the glass.

The Slugger Wines

2024 The Slugger Sauvignon Blanc....$15.99
The 2024 The Slugger Sauvignon Blanc swings for the fences with bright, lively fruit and crisp precision. Zesty citrus, grapefruit peel, and fresh-cut green apple lead the charge, backed by a clean herbal snap and a mineral edge that keeps the finish long and refreshing. Light on its feet but packed with flavor, it’s the perfect white for game day spreads, seafood, salads, or simply sipping while you call your own shots.

2023 The Slugger Cabernet Sauvignon...$18.99
The 2023 The Slugger Cabernet Sauvignon steps up with bold confidence—ripe blackberry, black cherry, and cassis layered with warm vanilla, mocha, and a dusting of spice from oak aging. Full-bodied and smooth, it delivers generous fruit without losing its structure, finishing with a firm tannin handshake. Robust enough for grilled steaks and barbecue, yet polished enough to impress any crowd, this Cab knocks it out of the park.
