Description

Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 93
Beeswax, lemon verbena and lime zest aromas make for a compelling combination on the nose of this bottling from a historic vineyard. The palate is taut in texture, showing wet stone and tart grapefruit flavors along with more hedonistic flavors of lemonade sorbet.

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.
