Bowmore Distillery

Aged 18 Years Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky

9.2

One of the finest peaty single malts ever. The long gone 17 year old batch was superior by a hair, but this is some of the finest. Like a bed of sweet moss, misted with brine and caramel. — 11 years ago

WOW. Tastes like waking up from a dream about being rich only to find yourself sleeping in a king size bed, wrapped in silk sheets at the edge of Mt. Etna. Then it hits you...you are actually rich and you can buy a case of this wine. — 11 years ago

Sebastiani

Gravel Bed Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

This small production sebastiani proves big estates can make artisanal wine. This comes from a rocky 2.6 acre plot of land and is so unique to the terroir. Big warm cherry pie nose with delicious palate of crushed stone and minerality that lingers in your mouth amid the cherry and strawberry shortcake palate. I can literally taste the limestone on the finish. Really good small production and modest priced wine. Awesome . Ps- i doubt the wine delectable has for sale is the same. It's easily confused with other sebastiani"s including the gravel bed prop red. This one sells for around 60 bucks and is tiny production. — 11 years ago

Ps if u try and buy on delectable I don't think it's the right wine. Easily confused with other sebastiani wine. This sells for around 60 a bottle i believe and is very limited production

Paired with Macademia crusted mahimahi over a warm bed of wild rice and topped with mango, blood-orange salsa. Perfect! Holy Yum! — 12 years ago

Dark. Holy crap dark. Nose of Kirsch and intense dark chocolate. Beautifully delineated with loads of red/black fruits all floating on a cushion-y bed of soft powdery tannins. This is plush and exotic. Long andvtrue, what a winner. — 11 years ago
