Mutiny Spiced Rum – Embrace the Spirit of Rebellion
Presented in a distinctive, pirate-themed bottle, Mutiny Spiced Rum makes the perfect gift for the pirate at heart. The bottle is embellished with fiery gold text that symbolises the flames of rebellion, telling the story of a mutiny at sea.

Torcolato: The Prized Dessert Wine of Breganze with Maculan
Earlier this year I attended a virtual tasting hosted by Studio Cru featuring the wines of the Maculan winery located in the Veneto wine region of northeastern Italy. Angela Maculan , 4 th generation operating the winery today, walked us through several wines that the winery produces with a fantastic overview of the territory. I want to focus on a special dessert wine, Torcolato , that I had been unfamiliar with prior to the tasting. Torcolato is not only a special wine that Maculan produces , but it is also unique to this particular area of the Ve neto , with in the territory of Breganze . About the Maculan winery The Maculan family ’s wine beginnings started with the great grandfather , Gaetano, whom used to sell wine that he made at his little osteria in the 20’s and 40’s. During World War II his son, Giovanni, started to make wine with his father to provide it for the army station . In 1947 Giovanni decided to start and build the wi

Remise en Cercle: Champagne’s Secret to Complexity and Correction
Anyone with a working knowledge of champagne knows there are two fermentations: one to turn grape juice into still wine, and one to transform that wine into champagne. This second fermentation happens inside the bottle and is triggered by the addition of sugar and yeast, a process known as prise de mousse . That, in theory, is where the magic happens... But what happens when the magic doesn’t happen? What if the second fermentation doesn’t take? What if the wine develops oxidative notes that...

Ingredients listings and key taste components found in commercial wines
Barrel tasting dark, rich, vividly flavorful Cabernet Sauvignon. Sugar and spice and all that’s nice , as the old nursery rhyme goes. There are lots of nice things in wine, although there are very few wineries that actually print “Ingredients”—that is, additions dropped on top of natural components of wines during the winemaking process—on back labels; ostensibly, because it is felt by most of the industry that most consumers might be shocked if they find out what actually ends up in commercial grade wine. If you are not required to list everything going into a bottle (a circumstance many consumer advocates think should be changed), why do it? I was at one Sonoma County winery’s tasting room just last week, tasting the brand’s signature estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon . The owner explained that over the years she has had problems impressing upon consumers that her grapes are certified organic and the fact that her wines are made in the lo
