Old Charter Oak "Finest Oak" Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Review
“Fishing is a delusion entirely surrounded by liars in old clothes.” –Don Marquis This is a bottle I have been hunting for some time. I'm not sure if we've historically had distribution for Old Charter Oak available in Massachusetts, but when a bottle was sitting in the glass cabinet at one of my local stores for a hair above MSRP, I pulled the trigger without a second thought. For some reason it took me a few weeks to open this one after waiting years to finally taste it. Friends coming over...

Yeah Wines Chardonnay 2024
  What I like about this Yeah Wines Chardonnay is the way it carries itself. It possesses this cool charm and a relaxed swagger.  Whole bunch pressed, barrel fermented (30% new French oak). On first inspection, it gives the impression of a wine of depth from its aroma profile. But to taste, it slides through on an even keel without density or bulk. Concentrated peach lands on the mid-palate with licks of pineapple and mango. Butter cream, wafer biscuits, plus some cashews build layers of interest. A bright lemony acidity and lemony tang have the last word and call me back for more. A well-priced Margaret River Chardonnay, it's a thumbs up from me. 90/100 Region:  Margaret River  RRP:  $35 Source: Sample Winery Website Subscribe to   Qwine here Follow:  Instagram ,  LinkedIn  and  X

Yeah Wines Viognier 2024
  Giving off a golden glow in the glass, this is a neat Viognier from Western Australia's Blackwood Valley region. Sitting on the richer side of the Viognier spectrum, it's not an oily type, and the fruit is able to express its freshness. Alive with peaches and cream, barbecued peaches, canned apricots and apricot nectar, barrel fermentation has imparted vanilla custard and vanilla oak nuances. A wine best enjoyed with food, this is a pretty tidy piece of work. 90/100 Region:  Blackwood Valley  RRP:  $35 Source: Sample Winery Website Subscribe to   Qwine here Follow:  Instagram ,  LinkedIn  and  X

What Is Amber Wine? A Plain-English Guide to Georgia's Most Misunderstood Style
You've probably seen it on a wine list or spotted an unusual golden-orange bottle at a specialty shop. Amber wine — sometimes called orange wine — looks different, tastes different, and seems hard to explain. It isn't. Here's everything you need to know. So What Exactly Is Amber Wine? Amber wine is simply white wine made like red wine. Normally, when white wine is made, the grape skins are removed immediately after pressing. Amber wine skips that step. The skins stay in contact with the juice...

Rock and a good place - Wine of the week
Central Otago was once as famous for its rocky canyons and hair raising gravel roads as it now is for its Pinot Noir but whether it is driving or making wine in this dramatic mountainous landscape, it can be a risky venture.The most famous of all the well known risky drives in Central has historically been Skipper's Canyon and yes, I have been down there - several times - in a Land Rover, on a mini bus and in a car but I sometimes think that making wine is even more challenging than attempt...

The Art of the Limited Edition
A conversation with Anand Virmani and Aparajita Ninan of Nao Spirits When Nao Spirits launched Greater Than, India’s first craft gin, the category looked very different. It leaned heavily on paisleys, peacocks, and festive colour palettes. The familiar cues of ‘Indianness’ were loud and decorative. It was easy to recognise and also easy to sell. Nao Spirits flipped that approach. In a media roundtable, Anand Virmani and Aparajita Nina, founders of Nao Spirits, talked about they wanted the brand to reflect a modern India and not a nostalgic one. They wanted something that felt current and the design language followed that thinking. They came up with a bottle that could sit anywhere, in a bar, on a kitchen shelf or be anywhere in a house party. Focus on labels In an industry where labels are often an afterthought, Nao Spirits invested deeply in paper quality, print technique, the finish and the detail. The minimal aesthetic made this even more critical. There was n

InvecchiatIGP: Tenuta di Monte Chiaro - Arte Liquida Toscana Igt Bianco 2006
di Stefano Tesi Qualcuno potrebbe chiamarla la buona sorte del neofita, magari usando – visto che siamo in Toscana – un’espressione più colorita. Eppure, non c’è dubbio che, audaci a parte, la fortuna aiuta a volte anche i semplici principianti.  È il caso (lo ammette con candore lui stesso) di questo sorprendente vino, il suo primo in assoluto, tirato dall’allora esordiente Alessandro Griccioli in sole 300 magnum e risfoderato dalle avite cantine oggi, a distanza di vent’anni tondi: Trebbiano, Malvasia e Viognier. “ Fu tutto condizionato dall’entusiasmo e dall’inesperienza: batonnage, poi messo in legno per due anni e infine imbottigliato” rammenta il produttore, compiaciuto del buon risultato offertogli dal destino. “Ovviamente lo facciamo ancora oggi, con lo stesso nome, anche se vinifichiamo in modo molto diverso e con l’aggiunta di un 10% di Manzoni Bianco. Il progetto, anzi l’idea, è però rimasta la stessa: dare al vino un'espressione anche visiva, ponendo l'accento sia sul
