Variant

Janisson Baradon & Fils

Toulette Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay 2006

100% CH of which 80% is a variant calked Chardonnay Musque from the Savoie, planted in 1947. 109% oaked fermented. 7 years spent on lees. Low dosage (3-4 g/L). What a lovely wine...full, generous and fresh. Everything is here already but needs to takes its place. Promising future. Melting fruit and texture on the palate. Good energy throughout. — 11 years ago

Argiolas

Costera Cannonau di Sardegna

2010. Predominantly the Grenache variant cannonau from Sardinia. Soft, balanced and very pleasant. Good value — 12 years ago

A port variant, but not overly sweet. I really like this. — 12 years ago

The Bruery

Black Tuesday Bourbon Barrel Aged Imperial Stout

Matt Austin
9.3

2014 rum barrel aged variant. 18.9% alc!!! This is big, sweet and boozy. Dessert beer for sure. It has complexity, but not on the level of the bourbon barrel aged original. Still has more balance than just about any beer in this alcohol range and it's a pleasure to drink. Will be better with some age. — 11 years ago

Hidden Legend Winery

Pure Honey Mead

Another flavorful Mead of the lesser sweet variant. I rate this on the same level of greatness as the SkyRiver Mead, although this one is a little bit more dry. It gives it an almost beer like property, though it's still rich and smooth like a wine should be. — 13 years ago

Birrificio Torrechiara

Panil Riserva Barriquée Sour Red Ale 2014

Round soft muted variant of a Flemish red. — 11 years ago

Brasserie de Rochefort

Trappistes Rochefort 10 Quadrupel Ale

One of the top three of the covetted Belgian Trappiste Ales. The "10" variant is appropriate and also a real kick in the pants as it aligns to the alcohol content 🍻 — 11 years ago

Ridgeview

Grosvenor Brut Chardonnay 2010

Again, not the best vintage but this 'premium' variant of ridgeview is a big celebratory sparkling wine. — 13 years ago
