haven't before.
-Tara
$51.50
750mL
Sonoma Rye
This is new to AB. It's a very fragrant spirit - full of

distinctive peppery spice that rye is known for, but
it's definitely a more elegant and refined style of rye.
-Tara
$93.80

High West American Prairie Bourbon
Not from Kentucky, but rather Utah. High West is
gaining attention as a distillery to be taken seriously.

Diplomatico SV 2000
It's quite difficult to find rums that are of a single
vintage (or at least, labeled as such). Diplomatico is
popular for a reason. The rums are balanced,
complex, and layered. The SV 2000 is full bodied (for
a rum) and rich.
-Tara
$137.70

Mer Soleil Silver
USA
Unwooded chard for more true chard flavour. This
wine is made in concrete tanks and bottled in a
concrete bottle, which can be used as a decanter. You
can freeze the bottle for a chilled decanter.

Not overly “lavender/rose soap" on the nose, which
when present, puts me off pretty quickly with gews.
Fresh lychee and peaches on the palate. A refreshing
aperitif.

La Stella Maestoso

Big & bold is how this is best described. Extremely
small harvest per acre (1.5t per acre - when 6-8 tonnes
per acre is typical. Brooding and muscular, full of
dark red fruit and vanilla.

Moscato
Alpha Crucis Moscato
Australia
Not an overly cloying style of muscat. It still has all
the pretty floral notes and uber ripe fresh fruit we've
all come to expect from muscats/moscatos, but there
is a really lovely thread of acidity that keeps the wine
from becoming over the top sweet.

Colterenzio
Italy
Alto Adige is in the northern part of Italy - almost
Switzerland. The cooler climate results in a very crisp
and citrusy style of grigio. Loads of fresh lemon!
Colterenzio's offer also has a really nice texture on the
palate as well as my favourite - minerality!

Steal of a deal! Sometimes you want a glass of wine
that you don't want to think about - you just want a
glass of wine. Lots of raspberry and wild strawberry
notes and a pleasing amount of acidity. Great
packaging as well so it would present well as a
hostess gift.

Joseph Mellot Cuvee Pierre Etienne
France
The Mellot family has been producing world class
sauvignon blancs since the 14th or 15th century. I
think they've got it figured out! This is such an
incredibly elegant sauv blanc. It does see some light
oak treatment so there is definite ageability and a
pleasant fullness to the wine.

Not a white blend that most people are familiar with Rousanne & Marsanne. These varietals are typically

Chapoutier L'Ermite Ermitage

Hedonistic Rhone blend. 98% of wine drinkers
would not spend $30 on a bottle, let alone $300.
Worth it? Absolutely. A delicate balance of fruit and
oak treatment. It's complex & layered and you’re
definitely able to forget about it in your cellar for a
few more years if you so choose.
