Description

Jeb Dunnuck Review
Rated 97
The 2020 Red Wine showed brilliantly, with pure cassis, plums, dark chocolate, and graphite aromatics to go with a full-bodied, rich, wonderfully pure, elegant profile on the palate. This classic, structured, concentrated red is going to evolve for 25-30 years. The Red Wine is based on a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, and Merlot, all from the Figgins Estate Vineyard, that spent 22 months in new and once-used barrels.

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.
