Crémeux de Bourgogne Triple Cream Cheese

This cheese is perfect right now, great for Easter!
We do not see it very often
From Burgundy, and you know it goes great with Pinot Noir, the grape of Burgundy!
In stock at Forsyth, Kirkwood, New Ballas and Olive Ovation
Crémeux de Bourgogne Triple Cream Cheese...$16.99 / lb
One of the smallest family producers in Burgundy perfected this modern twist on a classic French Triple Crème in 2005. Cremeux marries the silky texture of Brillat-Savarin with the another favorite Delice de Bourgogne. A true cheesemongers Triple-Crème.
The Crémeux de Bourgogne range brings together all our cheese specialities with an inner filling. It is the combination of our triple cream products, such as the Brillat-Savarin, with ingredients selected for their great taste. The cheeses are formed when the white bloom of the rind has not yet set in. It will then take time for the maturing process to unify the cheese and for the rind to cover any filling line still visible on the heel of the cheese.

2021 Domaine Drouhin Laurene Pinot Noir



2021 Domaine Drouhin Laurene Pinot Noir...$69.99
#16 Wine of the Year - 2023 The Wine Spectator
Rich and detailed, with a deep but graceful structure, offering rose petal, raspberry, orange peel and dusky spice flavors that build tension and polish toward fine-grained tannins. Drink now through 2032. 3,029 cases made.
Rated 95/100 The Wine Spectator
The Laurène gently caresses the palate like the rider's steadying hand on a skittish horse. Aromas of lavender, dark raspberry, hay and the salinity of an ocean breeze swirl gently from the glass. Blackberry compote and blackcap raspberry flavors are joined by wisps of Earl Grey tea and thyme. Balanced beauty.
Rated 96/100 James Suckling

New Riff Malted Rye 6 year



New Riff Kentucky 6 Year Malted Rye...$56.99
Compare to $64.99 at Total Wine and More
This style of whiskey is made of 100% malted rye grain, which is quite rare, even in today’s craft distilling scene. Malted rye is rye grain that has undergone the process of malting. When you malt a grain you alter and, arguably, improve and refine its flavor. That’s exactly what’s happened here, as the typically spicy flavor of rye becomes polished, refined, and subtle.
New Riff Malted Rye is elegant. Graceful. It presents plenty of spice but in a much more sophisticated fashion than our standard 95% rye. It actually makes more sense to us to think of it as a malted whiskey first, and a rye whiskey second. At a generous six years old, our New Riff Malted Rye Bottled in Bond Without Chill Filtration is the oldest New Riff whiskey yet released, and will remain at six years as something of an exclamation point atop our standard portfolio.

Belhaven Scottish Ale Nitro Cans

 
Belhaven Scottish Ale Nitro...$12.99 / 4pk 16oz cans
Medieval monasteries were at the centre of the brewing revolution in Scotland, creating rich and malty recipes for classic Scottish ales.

Belhaven Scottish Ale is brewed at Scotland’s oldest working brewery – near a monastery site dating back to 1150AD – and stays close to this tradition.

It is said that the true character that makes a Scottish ale shine is the malted barley and we use 100% Scottish barley combined with the finest hops to create a deep copper coloured ale at 5.2%.
