POUR SOME LOVE IS BACK — AND THIS TIME, IT'S ALL ABOUT GAMAY

Last summer, we opened up the cellar and invited a small group of wine lovers to step behind the curtain of our Love & Squalor Pinot Noir. You tasted through vineyard tiers, debated blending ratios with Matt and Alana, and went home with notebooks full of scribbled percentages and strong opinions. It was one of our favorite nights of the year. So we're doing it again — and this time, we're turning our attention to Gamay Noir. POUR SOME LOVE: Blending Event with Matt, Alana & Jess June 25th | 6–8 PM $45 General | $25 Club Members | Limited to 20 People Gamay is a grape that rewards experimentation. It's expressive, layered, and surprisingly versatile — and we've been working with several different barrels this vintage that each tell a slightly different story. On June 25th, we will walk you through a tasting of our barrelled Gamay Noirs, starting with finished wines so you have a reference point, then diving into the barrel samples themselves. From there, it's your turn. You'll play wit

5 Rums: T.D.L. 2001 / 2009 / 2016

Sometimes I just need a small incentive to start a new rum session. In this case a pile of T.D.L. samples was a perfect occasion. Enjoy!  T.D.L. 25 yo 2001 (57,2%, Compagnie des Indes for Asia 2026) Nose: brilliant fruits. Guava, pink grapefruit, hints of passion fruit syrup and bits of mango. Then some flower petals, hints of rosehip tea, tiny drops of camphor and mint. The energy is incredible. Also subtle hints of cinnamon, molasses and light fusel oils. Mouth: now the fruity core gets a little overshadowed by an overload of mint, polished leather and pine needles. Sure, there's still mango, pineapple and peach sweetness, a hint of resinous honey, but then more salty liquorice, ginger and bitter drops of herbal extracts. Finish: long and rich, with the resinous notes and herbal tea in front row.A gorgeous nose, no doubt, and then an ever so slight deception because the tropical juiciness doesn't explode in the mouth. Worth checking out though, if you're in Asia. Check with Comp
