Silver Lake 1994 Reserve Merlot Magnum - Washington Wine Festival 1st Place Winner

This is a full magnum of Silver Lake 1994 Reserve Merlot. This bottle was offered for auction at the 6th Annual Wine Festival, and it took first place! The bottle is etched with a darling bird on a bird house design that was designed by Jennifer, age 9.

 

Reliable as usual, this soft, cherry and vanilla-flavored Merlot is pure varietal, fruity and ready to drink immediately. The tannins are extremely light, through a hint of green wood and oak sneaks into the finish. The result is an easy-drinking Merlot laced with black fruit and bittersweet chocolate. Enjoy this wine with savory dishes like grilled flank steak or roasted duck.

Must be 21 years of age or older, to purchase.

Pinot Noir Series

The 2009 Pinot Noir UV-SL Vineyard is dazzling. It reveals all of the qualities that make Pinot here so compelling. In the 2009 I find expressive aromatics that meld seamlessly into the fruit, not to mention a gracious yet powerful personality. A super-refined finish has the last say in this moving, breathtaking wine. The UV-SL vineyard is just four miles from the Pacific Ocean. There is an energy and vitality in the wine I find totally irresistible. The 2009 Pinot Noir UV Vineyard reveals a medium ruby color with purple nuances that is clearly less saturated than the 2008 or 2007 Pinot Noirs. A powerful perfume of spice box, subtle oak, damp earth, red and black currants, pomegranate and sweet strawberries is followed by a broad, flavorful red.

A richly detailed riot of flavors, this outstanding Pinot Noir offers notes of lavender and rosemary on the nose and flavors of strawberry and raspberry on the palate, with hints of beetroot, clean earth and anise. The finish adds a lingering, resonant flavor of pastis.

Included with this package is the Red Series set of four 15 oz stemless wine goblets are dishwasher safe and extra durable for indoor and outdoor use.

Must be 21 years of age or older, to purchase.

Orcas Island West Island Whiskey

Located in Washington State’s San Juan Islands, Orcas Island Distillery is truly a family affair, being run by father and son Charles and Morgan West, along with their spouses Carie DeRuiter and Diane West.

Nose: An interesting combination of scents starts with light layers of warm oak mingled with barley, a touch of barrel char, vanilla, shelled peanuts, and hay. These are propped up against a noticeable scent of pink bubble gum. The scents are light yet defined, producing a warm opening to the sip.

Palate: The lightness of the nose carries over the palate. Notes of toasted barley, salty sea air, hay, and hints of baking chocolate make an appearance. Laying underneath these flavors are traces of oak. The combination works well together yet due to its lightness, it leaves you wanting more pronounced flavor definitions. It’s a nuanced palate and one you’ll need to really take your time to focus on to get the most out of it.

Finish: The finish ramps up the intensity of flavors as toasted barley, baking chocolate, white peppercorn, and oak come alive. Propped up by a light heat, this sudden intensity of flavors is a welcome contrast to what the palate delivered. As the finish goes on, the initial flavors mellow out and a malted chocolate flavor bubbles up. Joining the malted chocolate flavor is a warm lingering heat that hugs your chest. The old saying of leaving them wanting more applies here, as the finish is easily the highlight of the sip.

Must be 21 years of age or older, to purchase.

Port Chilkoot Collection

50 Fathoms Gin: We distill 50 Fathoms Gin in the painstaking, Old World, London Dry style and give it a Southeast Alaska twist with hand-harvested local spruce tips, whole juniper berries, cinnamon, and coriander. (That unique citrus finish comes from tangerines grown in our family grove in California; if Alaska was warm enough, we’d grow them here.) The result of this delicious mash-up is a bold yet balanced gin you can enjoy in a spruce tip old-fashioned, or with top-shelf tonic.

Port Chilkoot Absinthe: Once feared by authorities and furtively sought by libertines everywhere, absinthe is suddenly respectable and available, but no less lovely and intriguing. And ours, if we may say so, is especially delicious. Based on a recipe from the 1700s, Green Siren takes a fair bit of time to make, because we don’t take shortcuts. We skip the artificial color and sugar syrup, and, instead, soak not once but twice with herbs that grow beautifully in Southeast Alaska, including wormwood, lemon balm, and anise hyssop. Once it takes on its distinctive light-licorice flavor and magical jade hue, we strain it, bottle it, and make it available to you. Imbibe it in the classic ritual, with sugar cube, spoon, and ice-cold water. Or enjoy it in an innovative cocktail, or simply on the rocks. Green Siren won’t make you hallucinate, but it may nicely adjust your attitude. 

Icy Strait Vodka: Bottled at a robust "Alaskan strength" 90 proof, Icy Strait Vodka is a smooth sipping spirit. We blend it with pure local water, pour it into a bottle labeled with an octopus, and there you have it: an exceptionally clear, flavorful vodka with just a hint of sweetness imparted by the corn it's distilled from Icy Strait Vodka is the perfect canvas for your favorite cocktail. Or simply enjoy it "icy strait."

Ardbeg Hypernova The Ultimate Islay Single Scotch Whiskey
Ardberg’s Hypernova is the peatiest, smokiest malt ever made by the distillery. But just how peaty is the peatiest? Maybe this info will shed some light on the situation - the maltsters on the Isle of Islay couldn’t achieve the ridiculous numbers that were required for this expression, which is 170 ppm, meaning parts per million, standing for phenol count in barley or, better said, the amount of peat smoke in the malt. Only because it was impossible to smoke the peat on the island, Ardberg Hypernova was smoked with non-Islay peat (shipping the peat from Islay to the masters on the mainland would be pretty non-environmental). This limited edition peat bomb was originally released to members of the Ardbeg Committee only. Bottled at a powerful ABV of 51%, you would expect this explosion of a whisky to blow you away with its smoke, but it instead opens new horizons of intensity, flavor, and complexity with each sip.

Grab your bottle today and start exploring the unknown parts of the Universe!

Midleton Very Rare Dair Ghaelach Kylebeg Wood-Virgin Irish Oak Collection: Tree #2

Midleton Dair Ghaelach Tree #2 , which means quite simply, Irish oak, is the result of a six-year exploration by the Midleton Masters into using native oak to mature Irish whiskey. Led by then Master of Maturation, Kevin O’Gorman, the two prerequisites for the project were to source Irish oak in a sustainable way, viable for the long-term, and to craft a new and outstanding style of Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey. Its provenance told in each sublime sip, this is the tale of our native oak striking harmony with the classically rich and spicy Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey character. This is a whiskey like no other.The story of each bottle of Midleton Dair Ghaelach can be traced right back to the very oak trees that helped to create its refined and unmistakable taste.
