TASTING NOTES

This is Bricoleur Vineyards first Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine has a deep garnet hue that leads to a captivating spice and dark berry aroma. On the palate, it displays both power and grace, as black currant, savory spice, purple plums, tobacco, and damp earth meld seamlessly. Ideal oak integration, fine balance, chalky tannins, and a velvety texture carry the wine to a memorable finish. Approachable now, if you can’t wait to pop the cork (suggest decanting to further capture all that it offers). It’s also cellar worthy; this wine promises years of enjoyment ahead.

KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY

In 1773, three McAfee Brothers named James, George and Robert left Virginia westward to explore the uncharted territory that would later become known as Kentucky. Traveling by canoe at first, the McAfee Company eventually followed a native trail overland that led to the great buffalo crossing, where the brothers surveyed the land now home to the world’s most award-winning distillery – Buffalo Trace Distillery. The surveyor marks left behind are known as benchmarks and this bourbon whiskey honors the pioneering spirits of these early American explorers.

TASTING NOTES

The nose bears caramel notes with a delicate stone-fruit backdrop. A robust and sturdy palate with some fine leather notes mingling with dry tobacco, a touch of oak and a hint of dried cherries. The finish is smooth and calming.

Agaves from select ranches in the Jalisco Highlands, aged 7 to 10 years, are harvested exclusively. Mature agaves are sourced to maintain sugar content and fermentation quality, avoiding processing during the hot summer months. The distillery, located in Tequila, utilizes mineralized water from a deep well near the Tequila volcano. Agaves are gently cooked in an autoclave and extracted using modified mills to preserve sweetness. Fermentation with a combination of well water and natural/specially developed yeast maintains complexity. Distillation occurs in copper alembic stills, preferred for their ability to prevent the formation of toxic chemicals.

In 1870, Maurice Hennessy, a 4th-generation member of the Hennessy family, asked the Master Blender Emile Fillioux to use long-aged eaux-de-vie to create a special blend for sharing with family and friends. 

More than 150 years later, Hennessy's powerful, balanced "Extra Old" blend remains the cognac of choice for sharing with one's inner circle. A moment heightened by an exceptional limited edition and collectible gift box designed by artist Yang Yongliang to celebrate the Year of the Dragon.

Bringing a childhood memory of a dragon to life through the magic of digital technology let Yang Yongliang build a new kind of bridge between past and present.

Sharing memories is an essential part of gathering and making the most of joyful moments, particularly during the New Year. For Yang Yongliang, using contemporary technology to bring mythical creatures to life wasn't just a way of expressing his own life experience — it is a means of engaging others. "I hope this inspires people to learn more about the historical and cultural contexts of dragons."

In 1872, a merchant named Louis-Napoléon Mattei named his aperitif wine after his native Cap Corse, a peninsula of Corsica that juts northward into the Mediterranean. A territory of France, Corsica has over the centuries been influenced by both France and Italy, as well as northern Africa. Mattei discovered the beneficial properties of cinchona tree bark during a voyage to the Caribbean, and he brought it to Cap Corse to blend with local wine made from Muscat and Vermentinu grapes. He added spices that made their way through Cap Corse’s bustling port, as well as Cedrat (citron), a thick-peeled ancestor of lemon. Cap Corse Mattei Quinquina was soon exported across the globe.

A true Quinquina Blanc, and unique among aperitif wines. The profile of the Cap Corse Mattei BLANC aperitif wine is defined by its distinctly Corsican components. Its all-mistelle base is of Vermentinu and Muscat Petit Grains, lending a terrific minerality, acidity and floral tones. The local Cedrat (aka citron) adds unique citrus aroma and a silky texture. Since its creation in 1872 by Louis-Napoléon Mattei, Cap Corse Mattei is the oldest and best known aperitif of Corsica. Still today family owned, and all macerations, aging and bottling are done in house.

As a quinquina, Cap Corse Mattei BLANC is flavored with cinchona bark (quinine), which adds spice and depth in the mid and back palate. Fantastic on ice with tonic or soda, and even more so with a pour of gin or an agave spirit.
