Remus Master Distiller Experimental Series No. 2: Straight Wheat Whiskey
I’d like to thank the folks at Ross& Squibb and their PR teams for sending this bottle with no strings attached. Spring has sprung here in Minnesota, and you know what that means. Yep, it was 80 degrees last weekend, and it’s looking like there’s a chance of snow this coming weekend. In spring, Minnesota gets a taste of all the seasons at once: summer, winter, mud, road work—even football if you follow the NFL Draft or the spring game for the local college. You don’t get to experience all of them in their full force (for example, even at 80 degrees, I didn’t turn on my AC for more than a test run, and the Draft/Spring Games are poor substitutes for real games), but you do get the opportunity to remember what you can look forward to and what you are leaving behind. It seems that, much like living through a Minnesota spring, MGP—producer of tonight’s whiskey—is also currently trying to decide what to leave behind and what is coming in the future, as they announced the “temporary idling”

Why Bierzo, Spain matters now: Old vines and the rise of site
Long overshadowed by Rioja and Ribera del Duero, Bierzo is stepping into focus with wines that speak more clearly than ever of place Set in northwest Spain, in the province of León along the border with Galicia, Bierzo sits at a natural crossroads—between Atlantic freshness and inland warmth, between Castilla y León and Galicia. The region forms a basin encircled by mountains, with the Sil River running through its centre and vineyards rising along its slopes. That shape tempers the climate while creating a patchwork of exposures, elevations, and soils: clay in the valley, slate and quartz as you climb. It’s a region of altitude, but also of rugged terrain—small plots, steep slopes, old bush vines, and everywhere, the sense that the land is still very much in charge. Read Also: Rethinking Brunello: A more complete picture of Montalcino For generations, Bierzo was farmed for subsistence. Parcels planted as field blends—red and white varieties together, harvested together. Many of those

Behind the Cork™ - Paso D'Oro Cabernet Sauvignon
Paso D’Oro Cabernet Sauvignon ($22) Paso D'Oro is a winery venture by the Terlato Wine Group that focuses on producing high-quality Cabernet Sauvignon from the Paso Robles region in California. The name translates to "Way of Gold," paying tribute to the golden California sunshine and the "golden path" taken by the winemaker's family. The wines are crafted by Laura Orozco, who was appointed as the winemaker for this venture in 2022 after her successful tenure at Napa's Chimney Rock. The grapes for this wine are from four different American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) in Paso Robles including the Estrella District, San Juan Creek District, Geneseo District and the Highlands District. Each block has a different elevation, soil type, row direction, clone and rootstock. Paso D’Oro Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petite Sirah and 4% Alicante Bouschet. Each individual vineyard block was fermented individually using several different yeast strains. It was aged 8 mo
