Maker Notes

Driven by a new ambition and desire for freedom, the Louis Roederer Champagne House is entering a new phase in its history with the creation of Collection. Current times, climate change and the importance of sustainable and respectful winegrowing practices that accentuate the qualities of the terroir have become central to our ethos and our work.

The finest works are often forged by constraint and adversity. Driven by a new energy, the Maison decided to reinvent its blends, reshape its expertise and rethink its methods in order to fall into step with Nature's new tempo and continue to evolve, advance and adapt.

All the plots of vines used for the creation of Collection, i.e. those owned by Louis Roederer as well as those belonging to our longstanding partners, have therefore been reevaluated to retain only those that are best suited to the Collection identity, rooted in the heart of the Champagne terroir.

This quest for the Champagne region’s most ‘expressionist’ terroirs has led us to a myriad of different origins, lieu-dits, exposures, lands and predominantly limestone soils, all with the ability to endure over the long term. This approach enables Louis Roederer not only to better tackle climate change, and do so whilst acquiring resilience and complexity, but also to guarantee the freshness of its wines and the continuation of the ‘Louis Roederer style’.

Created from the Perpetual Reserve and the oak-aged reserve wines, complemented by the finest successes of the 2018 harvest, Collection 243 is tied to our Champagne roots and the foundations of our Reims-based Champagne House. We therefore give ourselves the freedom to create the blend on the basis of whatever Nature gives us.

This decidedly Epicurean champagne is the Louis Roederer’s multi-vintage champagne par excellence! Collection’s number represents the number of blends created since the birth of the Louis Roederer Champagne House and enables wine lovers to select their wine based on the level of youth or maturity that they desire and appreciate.

It takes an unconventional winemaker to make a totally unexpected dry Riesling. One night, Charles was eating Chinese takeout and watching a fight scene in a notorious martial arts film when he had an idea: a killer white wine made to be paired with Asian food. Just like that, Kung Fu Girl was born. And it’s been kicking ass and taking names ever since.

Dos Boots’ agaves are grown deep in the Oaxacan Sierra, only a short drive from Villa Las Margaritas. The rich terroir of the mountain landscape and soil there nurture our agave, giving it its unique and differentiating proper- ties. The piñas, or hearts, of the agaves are hand selected and cooked in a conical underground pit oven, overseen by the expertise of our 4th generation Maestro Mezcale- ro, Petronilo Altamirano. Our agave is milled with a ta- hona stone wheel, fermented in wooden vats, and double distilled in copper alembic stills. Our Mezcal’s flavor is bold, and best described as smooth with herbal, earthy notes and a slight sweet aftertaste. We think it’s deli- cious, and is best enjoyed as a sipping experience or in a craft cocktail.

Sandeman Madeira Rainwater is made in the traditional manner on the Atlantic island of Madeira, The rich soil and volcanic subsoil give this wine a unique character which is enhanced by the winemaking and ageing in «estufas».

Tasting Notes 
Medium light amber colour with pronounced golden highlights. Clean nutty aromas, very agreeable light complexity. Medium dry in flavour, nutty and slightly complex, with a good clean finish. Brilliant wine - a good quality young Madeira in evolution.

Aged to perfection, Blacktooh 7 Year American Rye Whiskey is a testament to premium craftsmanship and the robust spirit of American whiskey. Its smooth, complex flavor profile is designed to captivate and satisfy connoisseurs and casual enthusiasts alike.

The grapes from the province of Treviso, an area that has always produced high quality Prosecco, give this sparkling wine a luminous straw yellow hue and for its emphatic yet stylish mousse. The bouquet is redolent of golden apple, while the palate is appealingly marked by aromatic notes of golden apple, white peach and honey.

Mionetto’s most classic line reflects its connections with the history of the winery in the elegant presentation of the bottle, which features an oblique label design that has always been a characteristic of the winery. The refined design of the label reflects the style of the products. Prestige, quality in every detail!

APPELLATION: Treviso DOC. The grapes are grown in the Veneto region of Italy, in an area near the Valdobbiadene DOCG area, on the sloping hills just north of Treviso. Soil is alluvial with an important presence of clay.

GRAPE VARIETY: 100% Glera.

SENSORY PROFILE

Aged to perfection in former whiskey barrels for up to 12 months, Lost Lore High Proof Reposado "La Catrina" is a beautifully balanced tequila that showcases the expertise of Master Distiller Sergio Cruz at the renowned NOM 1414 distillery, operated by the Vivanco family. With a strength of 98 proof (49% ABV), this reposado offers a rich and complex flavor profile, highlighted by deep notes of cooked agave, creamy vanilla, and the subtle warmth of oak from its time in the barrel.

Crafted with precision at the renowned NOM 1414 distillery under the expertise of Master Distiller Sergio Cruz, Lost Lore Still Strength Blanco Tequila is a bold expression of tradition and purity. Bottled at an impressive 110 proof (55% ABV), this tequila delivers an intense, unfiltered agave experience. Its robust profile is balanced by refreshing citrus undertones and a lively kick of black pepper, offering a complex and satisfying sip.

Busnel Calvados Pays d'Auge AOC VSOP is a distinguished apple brandy crafted in the heart of the Pays d'Auge region in Normandy, France. This appellation is recognized for its strict production standards, ensuring only the finest Calvados comes from the region. The VSOP (Very Superior Old Pale) designation indicates that the blend of Calvados has been aged for a minimum of four years in oak barrels, although many expressions in the blend may be aged longer. The oak maturation imparts rich, complex flavors and deep amber hues, balancing the crisp freshness of apples with layers of vanilla, caramel, and subtle spice.

Busnel’s commitment to traditional distillation methods, using only apples sourced from the Pays d'Auge and employing double distillation, results in a spirit that captures the essence of the region's apple orchards. On the palate, expect a well-rounded and smooth texture with notes of baked apples, dried fruits, and toasted wood, finishing with a hint of spice and vanilla. It’s perfect for sipping neat, over ice, or as an exquisite base for cocktails.

The fourth release in the Harmony Collection has been created in collaboration with Cirque du Soleil to tell our oak story in an imaginative, visual and innovative way.

IN HARMONY WITH NATURE
Two brands dedicated to constant innovation, this collaboration is inspired by a shared respect for creativity and reverence for the natural world.

For this release that celebrates our 200 Year Anniversary, we focus on our own area of expertise and mastery which is represented by oak. Oak runs through every facet of The Macallan and our exceptional sherry seasoned oak casks are the single greatest contributor to the outstanding quality, distinctive aromas and flavours of our whisky.

The Macallan continuously draws inspiration from nature. The Harmony Collection, Vibrant Oak is a reminder of the importance of both the connection with our natural environment and of preserving it.

THE EXPERIENCE

200 ML Kentucky Straight Bourbon Wood-Finished Flight

The Packaging: Eye-Catching
These 200 ML glass bottles are an exact replica of the RD1 750 ML bottles, featuring RD1’s iconic etched fencing around the base of the bottle and the colorful labels that distinguish our wood finishes. This makes for a perfect gift (think Father’s Day, anniversaries, birthdays and more) and a one-of-a-kind bourbon tasting.

The Experience: Our Lexington Tasting Room…In Your Own Home!
In addition to the 200 ML Flight we recommend purchasing a 750 ML bottle of RD1 Kentucky Straight Bourbon for the ultimate tasting experience of our wood-finished flight. Here’s why: the RD1 portfolio is built around our blue label, Kentucky Straight Bourbon. From there, we pull certain barrels aside, remove the bung, place unique wood staves into the bourbon barrel, hammer the new bung back, and let the barrel rest for additional time.

> Blue Label: Kentucky Straight Bourbon, 98 proof
> Red Label: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Finished In French Oak, 101 proof
> Green Label: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Finished In Brazilian Amburana Wood, 110 proof
> Brown Label: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Double Finished With Oak and Maple Barrels, 99.9 proof

The end result is dramatic! The wood delicately dances with the bourbon to significantly influence the final expression. From the distinct aroma, to your first sip, to the surprising finish, you’ll be amazed at the natural nuances imparted on the bourbon from the wood alone. This Flight allows you to journey with RD1 to discover your palate preferences.

Wood Finishing: Early Explorers of South America
While Amburana is a commonly harvested tree in South America, this was a new find for a craft distilled spirits producer like us. Amburana is known as “Brazilian Oak” and often used in South America for making essential oils, crafting luxury furniture and barrel aging Brazil's most popular spirit, Cachaça.

Our partner cooperage uses a patented technique to honeycomb drill small holes into the Amburana staves, allowing more wood surface interaction with the Bourbon. After aging RD1 Kentucky Straight Bourbon for 4+ years, we insert the Amburana staves into the barrel. It doesn’t take long for Amburana’s character to beautifully influence the bourbon. The end result represents RD1's curiosity to learn, experience, explore.

The Experience: A Step Beyond Bourbon
The best of baking spices – apple cinnamon, nutmeg and light brown sugar – come alive on the nose and are followed by pine, vanilla, peaches and apricots. Flavor galore with spice cake, and ginger snaps in a rich mouthfeel. Try a drop of water to open up hints of herbal black tea, dark berry jam and pineapple pepper. Finish is long and warm, and ends with allspice and sweet oak.

The Craft: Exploring the Bourbon Frontier
In this Double Finish, we took French Oak staves (first finish) that were steeped in a patented process of pressure, oxygen, time and temperature with maple syrup (second finish). The molecular transfusion into the base fibers of the wood is wonderfully artistic and scientifically intense. Consistency is the driver here for flavor and texture.

After RD1 Spirit's Kentucky Straight Bourbon aged for 4+ years, we inserted the French Oak and Maple stave wood into the barrel for additional aging. The end result is like the best stack of pancakes you've ever had.

The Experience: A Dessert-Like Sipper
An undeniable burst of maple and butterscotch on the nose followed by lightly toasted caramel, roasted pecans and paprika. Its flavor boasts a delicate dance of maple goodness and black peppercorn spice. The finish is long, smooth and spicy with a light accent of toasted caramel at the end. Try this in an Old Fashioned but skip the simple syrup and just add more of this bourbon.

AWARDS

The Craft: Kentucky Through and Through
RD1 Spirit’s Straight Bourbon is distilled in Kentucky using 100% copper equipment, aged 4+ years in Kentucky and bottled in Kentucky. We use 100% Kentucky corn and local limestone well water in our sour mash (also non-chill filtered). This traditional mash bill of 70% corn, 21% rye and 9% malted barley is a Bluegrass favorite for a reason.

The Packaging: Honoring the Past With Eyes Wide Open to the Future
RD1's custom glass bottle honors the first federally registered distillery in Lexington and the many brands it produced - the beautiful tree on the neck label is reminiscent of Ashland Distillery's old label and the glass lettering honors the Old William Tarr bottle. RD1's modern, concave bottle shape features the iconic horse farm fences of Lexington around the base in etched glass.

The Experience: Tried-and-True Lexington
This traditional Kentucky Straight Bourbon invites you in with delicious aromas of vanilla wafers and roasted almonds. When sipping, orange flavors are followed by honeyed caramel, herbal tea and peppery oak. A long, warm finish ends dry with a spicy hint of ginger and cinnamon.

This style of whiskey is made of 100% malted rye grain, which is quite rare, even in today’s craft distilling scene. Plump, medium-full palate; finely dovetailed elegant spices; saltwater taffy, fruits, clove, and an interesting toasty - malty note.The finish is focused spice with clove and pink peppercorn. At 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.
