In a world where extravagance is celebrated and imagination is boundless, a new age of enlightenment begins... Introducing Secret Indulgence, a new, borderless portfolio of wines. This unique collection is a collaboration between Jean-Charles Boisset and thirteen winemakers from his family estates in France and California, who have created a wine world without bounds, embracing the freedom to create a portfolio of daring, limited-production wines on the cutting edge of style!

We are so used to following tradition and the norm. But, what happens when we break the rules Can we set ourselves free and follow our wildest dreams

Emancipation, a California produced Rhne varietal blend, challenges the norms and intrigues from the first sip by bringing together Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre with Petite Sirah. This wine is smooth, bright and juicy, yet delicate and refined. Bright red cherry on the front of the palate leads to a briary herbaceous quality on the finish. This blend is palate coating, with a long, lingering finish and structure to pair well with rich foods.

Armand de Brignac Gold Brut was the first cuvée introduced to the portfolio and is the flagship. The Cattier family’s ambition during a New Year’s celebration in Chigny-les-Roses was to create the very best prestige cuvée for the 21st century, while still reflecting the rich traditions of winemaking in Champagne. It is in this way that the mastery of blending – vintages, terroirs and grape varieties – is at the essence of Armand de Brignac’s philosophy.

Tasting Notes: 

Peach, apricot and red berry aromas are followed by crystalized citrus, orange blossom and hints of brioche. The palate is rich with cherries, exotic fruits and a touch of lemon, vanilla and honey. The mouth feel is soft and creamy, with a hint of toastiness, from the unique Armand de Brignac dosage which is aged for one year in French oak barrels.

RED BUSH is aged in first-fill bourbon barrels for an intense bourbon finish, combined with the signature smoothness of triple-distilled Irish whiskey. RED BUSH is a well-rounded whiskey that is as versatile as it is complex. 

TASTING NOTES

Bushmills RED BUSH is an exceptionally smooth blend of our triple-distilled Irish single malt and fine Irish grain whiskey. Matured in American white oak bourbon casks, this exciting new blend provides a perfect balance of sweet, nutty and vanilla notes with hints of bourbon – which makes for a great choice for those new to Irish whiskey and frequent bourbon drinkers.

Meaning “extra aged” or “vintage”, aged for over 3 years. Perfect balance of sweetness from the Blue agaves, with subtle hints of spice and barrel oak, with a lingering smooth finish.

Naked Diablo’s Extra Añejo is aged to perfection in smaller batches for a minimum of 3 years in 10 year old Bourbon oak barrels. Balanced, rich and Extraordinarily smooth, with astonishing depth. This dark amber tequila is full-bodied and strikes the perfect balance between bourbon, roasted nuts, toasted coconut, and vanilla bean with notes of white pepper and tropical fruits.

It is best experienced neat or simply on the rocks.

The Whistler P.X. I Love You Single Malt is a fantastic example of the decadence of the Pedro Ximénez sherry and the influence this fortified wine’s casks can have on excellent single malt Irish whiskey. Finished for at least 9 months in PX casks this single malt exudes delicious sherry influence. 100% malted barley, initially matured in ex-bourbon casks before being finished in ex-PX Sherry Casks for 9 months.

TASTING NOTES

NOSE: Fantastically delicious sherry nose. Dried berries, raisins, cherries and sultanas/ golden raisins, with candied orange and sticky brown/ demerara sugar.

PALATE: Wood forward opening, with an incredibly viscous yet crisp palate. The dried fruits and brown sugar from the nose are joined on the palate by walnut, zesty citrus and a hint of leather.

FINISH: Walnut, dried fruits and the subtle wood prickle remain for a lengthy dry finish with a subtle hint of dark chocolate.

The oldest anise liqueur in France, Pernod is made from distillates of star anise, fennel and 14 other botanicals such as coriander and mint. It has a low liquorice content, which sets it apart from pastis. The original version included wormwood and was produced as absinthe at the Pernod Fils factory from 1805. The Pernod liqueur of today was created in 1938, though a reformulated absinthe based on the original recipe was released in 2005. Pernod merged with Ricard in 1975.

The 2020 Patrimony is aging at a leisurely pace, it takes time in the glass to unfold to rich blackberry pie, roasted coffee, chargrill and a shimmery streak of graphite. The velvety palate is packed with sweet berry fruit and savory accents and finishes tightly wound. It's barely nudged in bottle this year and will continue to develop over the next 15+ years.

The 2020 Patrimony Cabernet Sauvignon is nothing short of a blockbuster. This is an uber-concentrated wine that offers explosive aromas of lilac, hibiscus, thyme and dark chocolate. Intense qualities of ripe blackberries, black currant and blueberries accompany a beautiful harmony of flavors that begin with a impressive entry and linger for several minutes. Full-bodied and silky in texture, this wine displays immense elegance backed by a wonderful minerality, all while remaining fresh and vibrant. This wine will reward careful cellaring and bottle aging for decades to come. 97 Points WA

A compelling tension infuses the wine with focused energy, promising it will express beautifully for years to come.

The Glenfarclas distillery is a family business in its truest sense, having been in the hands of the Grant family for 6 generations. The distillery, which started its operations before 1791 and was first granted a license in 1836, was bought by John Grant in 1865. Grant, a well-known cattle breeder, first leased the distillery to his distant cousin John Smith. When Smith left in 1870 to start the Cragganmore distillery, John's son George took over. In 1890 George died only a year after his father, and left the distillery to his widow and two sons, John and George. George's sons, George S. Grant and John P. Grant incorporated Glenfarclas as a private limited company in 1947, and a few years later George was appointed the chairman of the company, staying at the helm for 52 years. The early years of George's tenure were marked by rapid growth and expansion, with the production doubling due to high demand from blenders. In the late 1960s, demand for whisky started to decline, and Glenfarclas lost its biggest client. George made the wise decision to put aside more stock for the distillery's own bottling instead of relying heavily on the demand from blenders. This resulted in the distillery now having an abundance of aged stock, and their warehouses currently hold casks of the past seven decades. Now the distillery is run by the 5th and 6th generation of the family, still faithful to the vision of creating the finest Highland single malt whisky in the Speyside way. With over 150 years of experience in the family, the distillery produces a traditional Highland malt with a heavy sherry influence using artisan methods handed down through generations. Glenfarclas is one of the few distilleries using direct fired stills, and their six stills are the biggest in Speyside. The spirit is distilled twice before being put in casks, which are kept in traditional dunnage warehouses. Glenfarclas's 10-year expression is aged in the finest European oak casks used once for Oloroso sherry, which are personally picked by John Grant at a family-owned bodega in Spain. The youngest of the eight whiskies in the distillery's aged range has a depth and finish you would expect from a much older drum.

Ruby in color, it presents a deep purple hue. Our Unfiltered Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 boasts aromas of red wild cherry with tobacco notes, followed by dark fruit and spices. The palate is structured yet refined. The density and volume on the midpalate complement the structure, making for a beautifully complex wine. Very long finish.

A traditional Polish vodka that is made from rye grain and infused with a unique ingredient: bison grass. This rare grass grows in the Białowieża Forest in Poland, and has a sweet, herbal flavor that gives the vodka its distinctive taste. Zubrowka has been produced since the 16th century, and has a long and fascinating history.

One of the most distinctive features of Zubrowka Bison Grass vodka is the blade of bison grass that is placed in each bottle. This serves as a symbol of the vodka's authenticity, and is also said to enhance the flavor of the drink. When the vodka is poured, the aroma of the bison grass is released, creating a pleasant and unique fragrance.

Zubrowka Bison Grass vodka can be enjoyed in a number of ways. It is often served neat or on the rocks, and can also be used in cocktails. One of the most popular Zubrowka cocktails is the Apple Pie, which combines the vodka with apple juice and cinnamon.
