We had another busy week at BevX with new, tasty beverage reviews to share. This week we have two new wine reviews and one new spirits review. Enjoy!
The BevX reviews are like no other. We evaluate wines, beers, and spirits breaking down elements of appearance, aroma, flavor, texture and intensity as well the product’s “cool factor” and value. We also offer analysis on the creation of the beverage as well as any interesting points that make it unique. Finally we offer suggestion on how to enjoy the beverage including pairing and cocktail suggestions.
As always you see all of our reviews here:

Wine
Troon Vermentino Applegate Valley 2016
Brilliant, light green/gold color. The nose is moderately intense offering scents of green apple, kumquat, and pear with supporting notes of jasmine and white peach. The palate confirms the nose delivering a ripe orchard fruits-driven core with flavors of lychee and a pleasing waxy note. The finish is long and lingering with bright citrus accents. Medium-bodied and perfectly balanced with a creamy texture.

The palate echoes the nose delivering a tropical fruits-driven core with flavors of pineapple. The finish is long and lingering with vibrant notes of citrus.

Spirits
Kilbeggan Single Grain Irish Whiskey
Brilliant, golden color. The nose offers scents of sweet grain with vanilla fudge and subtle accents of citrus and nutmeg. The palate echoes the nose delivering a sweet grain core with assertive black pepper and oak notes with a hearty dose of wood tannins. Medium-bodied with rich, sweet grain notes that are overwhelmed by alcohol heat and spice with astringent wood accents rising on the finish.
