Ancient buffalo carved paths through the wilderness that led American pioneers and explorers to new frontiers. One such trail led to the banks of the Kentucky River where Buffalo Trace Distillery has been making bourbon whiskey the same way for more than 200 years. In tribute to the mighty buffalo and the rugged, independent spirit of the pioneers who followed them, we created our signature Buffalo Trace Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.

2023 Peter Michael Chardonnay



One of the best Chardonnay producers!
New 2023 is here!

PERFECT 100/100
2023 Peter Michael Chardonnay Belle Cote...$129.99
This extraordinary estate-grown wine from a great vintage is super vibrant, energized and tangy, with vital acidity supporting luscious ripe pear and apple flavors on a silky texture. Can't think of anything it lacks. Seamless, layered, yet structured and fresh, boding well for longer-term aging. It has a melts-in-the-mouth quality and an extra long finish. Drinkable now and best from 2030.
Rated 100/100 James Suckling
I tasted the 2023 Chardonnay Belle Côte from tank just before it was bottled. From vines planted in 1990, it’s open and expressive, its peach and guava aromas complemented by nuances of elderflower, graham cracker and crème brûlée. The full-bodied palate is satiny and expansive with tropical, spicy flavors. Its concentration is balanced by vibrant acidity, and it has a long, bright finish
Rated 94-96/100 The Wine Advocate

2023 Peter Michael Chardonnay La Carriere....$129.99
A driving force of appetizing acidity powers this full-bodied, brilliant, elegant and intricate wine. It offers mineral and citrus flavors in equal measure, starting with a lot of fresh lemon and lime zest aromas, then richer baked apple, lemon blossom and brown butter flavors. Feels so focused, linear and alive. Drink now or hold.
Rated 98/100 James Suckling
I tasted the 2023 Chardonnay La Carrière from tank just before it was bottled. It has inviting aromas of guava, peach, panna cotta, well-integrated new oak spices and top notes of Meyer lemon. The palate is satiny and mouth coating with luxuriously ripe, layered, spicy flavors. It’s balanced by vibrant acidity that adds focus to its generous flavors, and it has a very long, nuanced finish
Rated 93-96/100 The Wine Advocate


2023 Peter Michael Sauvignon Blanc Knights Valley L'Apres-Midi...$74.99
A brilliant, tangy, fresh and lively white whose vivid mineral, citrus and herbal flavors make a refreshing, appetizing blend. Crisp acidity braces lemon, lime and grapefruit flavors with subtle oak undertones. A nice blend of fruit, dried thyme, white pepper and light toast flavors. Contains 4% semillon. Drink now.

Lustau Sherry

Lustau Sherry Tasting
TONIGHT - Friday, September 26th from 4pm-6pm
The Wine and Cheese Place
7435 Forsyth Blvd, Clayton MO

Open house format - come in taste some of the greatest sherries.  We will have some cheeses alongside them to taste also


Lustau Sherry - some of the greatest!

"Lustau made its reputation in the foreign markets with its extraordinary single cask Almacenistas which had been accumulated by the family over many years as their soleras are among the oldest in Sherry....These are all remarkable efforts for their stunning value. While they are still under-the-radar for most American wine lovers, I encourage readers to give them a try as they are great introductory reference points for how profound sherry can be....they can be as profound as any alcoholic beverage in the world." 
- Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate (2012)


Lustau Sherry Manzanilla Papirusa...$19.99
100% Palomino
MANZANILLA IN IT’S HIGHEST EXPRESSION
Very dry and very floral. Aging under flor in Sanlucar de Barrameda, in a humid microclimate under the influence of the sea breeze from the mouth of the Guadalquivir River, which marks his character extremely dry, light and sharp. A unique manzanilla sherry within that year after year has earned the highest awards in competitions most prestigious international wines.
The origin of the name Papirusa is Argentina and means “beautiful and elegant” and was the name of Emilio Lustau doll gift to the daughter of the manager of Bodegas Lustau in the 40s.
D.O. Manzanilla Sanlúcar de Barrameda
15 % Alcohol
5 Years
Profile: Very Dry
The non-vintage Light Manzanilla Papirusa Solera Reserva (with an average age of five years in this solera) possesses an extraordinary, penetrating nose of salty brined nuts intermixed with crisp fruit, terrific acidity and intense, powerful, authoritative flavors that are ethereal in their lightness.
Rated 92/100 Robert Parker (2012)


Lustau East India Solera Cream Sherry...$27.99
Palomino y Pedro Ximénez
Dark mahogany in colour with green-amber edge. It offers vibrant notes of maple syrup, brown sugar, shoe polish, raisin and chocolate beer nuts, all very well integrated. On the palate it is smooth and rich at the beginning, full of prune and burned oranges peel flavours. Provocative spicy notes appear just before its nuttiness and terrific acidity cuts through the sweetness. With a truly unforgettable finish.
Each wine (Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez) is matured, separately in its own solera for 12 years. Once blended together, the resulting sherry is returned to a 45-cask solera for a further 3 years ageing. In centuries gone by, casks with sherry were lashed to ships sailing for the Indies and were found to develop an extraordinary smoothness and complexity. Lustau has revived this style of sherry in the East India wine.
ALCOHOL: 20 %
AVERAGE AGE:15Years


Lustau Sherry Oloroso Don Nuño...$27.99
100% Palomino
Aged following an oxidative ageing for 12 years in Bodega La Campana in Jerez de la Frontera.
Dark bronze colour with golden rim. Pungent nutty aromas with a smoky wood background. Rich flavours of bitter chocolate, walnuts and baked chestnuts. This Oloroso wine has an intense, concentrated aftertaste, lightened by a tangy acidity.
ALCOHOL: 20 %
AVERAGE AGE: 12 Years
"If you are looking for a dry sherry made in a slightly more oxidized style, the non-vintage Dry Oloroso Don Nuno Solera Reserva is your choice. Again, a nuttiness (in this case, walnuts) intermixed with a hint of Chinese black tea combine with salty, caramelized flavors make for a delicious glass of sherry."
Rated 94/100 Robert Parker (2012)

Lustau Sherry Fino Jarana...$19.99
100% Palomino
Fino Jarana
Pale straw colour with greenish reflections, bright and clean. This is a Jerez style Fino: fresh, mineral and pungent on the nose with almonds and bakery notes. Dry and crisp on the palate, yet rich and with a full finish.
Aged under a veil of yeast, called “flor”, in Bodega Las Cruces in Jerez de la Frontera. The inland climate in the town of Jerez de la Frontera provides a more rounded and fuller style of wine.
ALCOHOL: 15 %
AVERAGE AGE: 4Years
PROFILE: Bone Dry

Lustaru Sherry Amontillado Los Arcos...$19.99
100% Palomino
Aged for equal periods under “flor” and in contact with the oxygen, in Bodega Emperatriz Eugenia in Jerez de la Frontera. This dry Amontillado acquires a genuine, rich and nutty flavour through years of ageing. Amber in colour, with hazelnut aromas on the nose. Light, soft and round on the palate, with a long aftertaste.
There were two arches at the entrance to the winery at Plaza del Cubo, where this Amontillado was aged. Each one was dedicated to one of Emilio Lustau’s sons’ wives: Arco de Zuri (for Emilio Lustau Ruiz-Berdejo’s wife) and Trini (wife of José Luis Lustau Ruiz-Berdejo)
ALCOHOL: 18.5 %
AVERAGE AGE: 8 Years
PROFILE: Dry
"The non-vintage Dry Amontillado Los Arcos Solera Reserva reveals a medium amber hue along with a nutty, honeyed, dry personality with great acid."
Rated 93/100 Robert Parker (2012)

Caro Amancaya Malbec / Cabernet Sauvignon

Almost half price!!!

From two legendary winemaking families
Domaines Barons de Rothschild Lafite and the Catena created another premium wine, this time a Malbec dominated cuvée, that would nevertheless be a balance between the Bordeaux and Argentine styles. To celebrate its Andean origin, the wine was named Amancaya, after the mountain flower which grows in the Andes.


2020 Caro Amancaya Malbec / Cabernet Sauvignon...$13.99
was $26.99
lowest price on Wine-Searcher is $19.99
Elegantly detailed aromas of violet, mace and crushed raspberry pave a nice entry to this richly textured red, which shows fleshy plum and raspberry flavors midpalate, lightened by an underpinning of minerality, before toasty mocha notes and round tannins arrive on the finish. Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. Drink now through 2032. 20,000 cases made, 8,000 cases imported.
Rated 93/100 The Wine Spectator
There's more ripeness in the nose and flavors of the 2020 Amancaya, reflecting the warm and dry vintage. It has 14.5% alcohol and was produced with a blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon and 40% Malbec, reversing the dominant grape to combine the fruit and freshness of Malbec with the power and complexity of Cabernet Sauvignon. Fifty percent of the volume matured in oak barrels while the other half was kept in concrete to keep the fruit-driven profile with a soft palate and round tannins. 122,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in March 2022.

Tio Pepe Fino Sherry


Back in stock! This one always seems to be out of stock
Tio Pepe Fino Sherry....$21.99
Tio Pepe is…The world’s best-selling Fino
Uncompromisingly dry
Fantastic with food – especially savoury nibbles such as Jamon Iberico, chorizo, olives, nuts, Manchego cheese and bread and oil.  Great with fish or prawns and shrimps
From Jerez in southern Spain

In 1835 in Jerez, Spain, Manuel Maria Gonzalez, an ambitious 23 year old, set up the first manifestation of the company that was ultimately to become Gonzalez Byass. Young Manuel was mentored in this by his uncle, José Angel de la Pena, (affectionately known as Pepe), already a renowned authority on sherry and its production. It was natural therefore that in 1837 Manuel should give the first, tiny bodega (cellar) over to his uncle so that the older man could potter away at his passion to create a delicate sherry to his own, personal taste. (At the time dry, Fino sherries were enjoyed only by a very few locals in Jerez).
Later, Manuel sent a couple of barrels of his uncle’s new, dry wine over to his London agent, one Robert Byass. The future company partner was sceptical: “We shall see what can be done with the very, very pale wine that you so highly recommend”.
But the beautifully dry taste of José Angel’s wine proved a great success and in 1849 Manuel named what is now the world’s best-selling Fino after its creator, (tio being Spanish for uncle) – TIO PEPE
