New Wines & Whiskey this week 🍷🥃

New Rye from Somm André Mack!

From iconic American sommelier André Hueston Mack of The French Laundry and Per Se fame, Rye & Sons is crafted with a winemaker’s approach. This, the inaugural annual release, reflects the brand’s ethos which endeavors to offer approachable and affordable rye whiskey for easy sipping and intuitive cocktailing.

With Rye & Sons, the celebrated sommelier and winemaker André Hueston Mack brings his expertise to rye whiskey, focusing on the unique characteristics of each year’s barrels to get the very best from the grain. Mack honors the tradition of America’s first whiskey while refusing to be contained by it, and in his hands an old classic becomes something entirely new.

Mack explains that his palate has evolved since he first started working in wine, and that rye "always felt like an insider thing that sommeliers would drink." He likens Bourbon to a Cabernet Sauvignon with its rich and round profile, while noting that Rye feels leaner and more restrained like a Pinot Noir. "Rye was America's first whiskey, and after I opened & Sons with American charcuterie, going down the same route in whiskey with rye felt familiar to me. It was like, here's a chance to champion something that feels really American. This is the winemaker's approach in finding the best of what's out there in the market and making the best rye we can."

Tasting Notes: A nose of cane syrup with orange zest and clove and a hint of eucalyptus leads to a vivid palate of anise, roasted nectarine, salted caramel, and cinnamon.

~~Retail $12~~ Dorn's $7.99

Jaboulet Parallèle 45 CDR 2018

Rhone Valley, France

Deep garnet red color. The nose offers a beautiful aromatic complexity of red fruits (raspberry and blackberry) as well as a hint of blackcurrant brought by the ripe Syrah. On the palate, the tannins are still very present, with finesse and elegance. Beautiful notes of red fruit and spices develop, leaving a beautiful length and freshness on the finish, all very well balanced.

90 points Decanter - "Deep red cherry and spiced berry notes on the nose. This has a nice mouthfeel where the soft tannins subtly coat the mouth. There's spice and soft, chewy, jammy fruit on the palate. It's not overly layered but it's balanced and enjoyable packing a punch in terms of fruit flavor but doesn't feel heavy on the palate."

~~Retail $15~~ ~~Dorn's $13.99~~

CRAZY DEAL $9.99!

Perro Callejero Cabernet Franc 2018

Mendoza, Argentina

Dark red color. Elegant on the nose, with red and black fruit aromas and hints of mint. On the palate it is fresh and well balanced, with a long finish.

90 Points, Wine Advocate - "There is a new Cabernet Franc that blends grapes from Perdriel and El Manzano, in Luján and Valle de Uco respectively. The 2018 Perro Callejero Blend de Cabernet Franc has some smoky and toasty aromas and a mixture of herbal, spicy and berry aromas."

~~Retail $18~~ Dorn's $13.99

Perro Callejero Malbec 2018

Mendoza, Argentina

Hand-harvested grapes from each terroir at different dates in order to find the ideal ripeness and expression. Then, each component is elaborated separately. The fermentation takes place in French oak barrels and concrete tanks, at low temperatures (around 23ºC), with indigenous yeasts, therefore achieving a great expression and complexity of aromas. The extraction processes are done manually by pisage. Each Malbec component is aged in used French and American oak barrels for 6 to 8 months. Finally, our winemaker selects among the best barrels in order to make the final Malbec Blend.

91 Points, Wine Advocate - "The 2018 Perro Callejero Blend de Malbec also mixes grapes from different parts of the Mendoza, looking for complexity and a combination of the riper characteristics from Luján and the sharper style from Uco. All wines keep very good freshness and relatively high acidity, as they always think about their wines in the context of gastronomy; these are wines for the table. This has varietal aromas and moderate ripeness, violets, red and black cherries and a pinch of spices. The palate is medium-bodied, serious and balanced, with a good combination between austerity and juiciness."

~~Retail $18~~ Dorn's $13.99

Cesari Amarone della Valpolicella Classico 2017

Valpolicella, Italy

Produced in the municipalities of Negrar, Marano di Valpolicella, Sant'Ambrogio, Fumane, San Pietro in Cariano in the historic area. The Corvina, Rondinella and Molinara grapes carefully dropped on the gratings until mid-January, completed by refining in large oak barrels and long-standing bottles, giving us this great wine. It accompanies red meat, game and also as a wine at the end of the meal.

On the nose, the typical notes of raisined fruit and cherry flavors are dominant. Mild hints of vanilla and spice are present as well. Elegant and warm with a velvety mouthfeel. Incredibly long, persistent finish that lingers on the palate. Amarone ages gracefully for upwards of 10 years if stored properly.
