Description

Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 93
The 2023 White Clay Appellation Lujan de Cuyo is a blend of 52% Semillon and 47% Chenin Blanc, the Semillon from old vines and the Chenin grown on pergola to protect the grapes from undue sunlight exposure and preserve freshness. Together the light-bodied wine maintains a rounded mouthfeel and dense flavors of apricot accented in white flower. Gorgeous. Enjoy now through 2033. Drinking Window 2025-2033.

How to Serve Liquor – Quick Tips

Temperature Matters: Serve whiskey and bourbon at room temperature, vodka chilled, and tequila slightly cool to preserve aroma and balance.
Choose the Right Glass: Use a rocks glass for whiskey, a flute or coupe for sparkling spirits, and a tulip or snifter for aged liquors.
Don’t Rush the Pour: Allow spirits to breathe for a few moments before tasting — it softens alcohol notes and opens complex flavors.
Savor with Intention: Sip slowly, appreciate aroma before taste, and pair thoughtfully with food or fine company.
