Wine Reviews
Domaine de Rombeau Le Botaniste Cotes Du Roussillon 2022
Brilliant, deep garnet color. The aromatics are intense, offering scents of cassis, baking spices, and boysenberry with supporting notes of black tea, blueberry, and plum. The palate confirms the nose delivering a red and black fruits-driven core with flavors of black cherry, five spice, red currant, and oak. The finish is long and lingering with firm tannins. Full-bodied and perfectly balanced with a meaty texture. Made with a blend of Syrah, Grenache, and Mourvèdre. $35 – 4 Stars/93 points
Spirits Reviews
Benriach Malting Season — Third Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Brilliant, pale straw color. The nose is intriguing with scents of toasted pale malt and hay filling the nose with accents of brown baking spices, citrus zest, and hints of oak. The palate echoes the nose delivering a sweet, malt-focused core with waves of dried red fruits, toasted cocoa nibs, black pepper, and citrus. Full-bodied and ideally balanced with loads of spice and malt. $165 – 4 Stars
