Blandy’s Sercial Madeira 1968
$599.99“The Blandys established themselves on Madeira in 1811 and are now in charge of the Madeira Wine Company. Aged for 49 years in seasoned American oak casks before bottling in 2017, this wine is mid-deep amber in colour with an olive-green glint. Fine, lifted woodsmoke characters on the nose are redolent of autumn leaves and bonfires. It has crystallised fruit on the palate with rapier-like power and intensity. The hint of sweetness (59g/l residual sugar) is offset by a streak of acidity, leading to a mouthwateringly fresh greengage finish yielding to a touch of savoury complexity. A wine that sings contralto from the glass.” – 99 points Decanter
La Fleur-Petrus Pomerol 1997
$599.99La Fleur-Pétrus Pomerol 1997 exemplifies the charm and sophistication of mature Bordeaux. Its seamless integration of fruit, earth, and tertiary characteristics makes it a delight to savour, offering a glimpse into the complexity and depth of one of Bordeaux’s esteemed appellations. While it has reached a stage of maturity, it retains enough vitality to captivate the senses and is a testament to the timeless allure of the region.

$599.99Part of Bruichladdich’s First Growth Bordeaux series, this single malt is aged for 16 years in an ex-Chateau Latour Pauillac cask. Aromas of honeycomb and toasted malt burst from the glass and are followed by candied ginger, orchard fruit and a light touch of freshly cut grass.
