TWO HaNdS<br />

THE LuCKy COuNTRy<br />

Australia $18.99 170555<br />

This wine is a deep crimson<br />

colour and has a brooding nose<br />

of fragrant black fruit, cedar,<br />

vanilla and sweet spice. With<br />

a fruit-forward, juicy palate<br />

of concentrated black plum,<br />

cherry, berries and licorice, it<br />

has soft tannins, a full-bodied,<br />

velvety mouth feel and a long<br />

rich, savoury mint-chocolate<br />

finish. The perfect wine to share<br />

over hearty meals!<br />

PERRIN LES CHRISTINS<br />

VaCQuEyRaS<br />

France $26.99 585315<br />

Perrin Les Christins Vacqueyras<br />

is an oenophile’s delight, with big,<br />

bright fruit balanced with spice<br />

and tobacco, finishing with silky<br />

tannins. This great showing of 75<br />

percent Grenache 25 percent<br />

Syrah is a must have for any<br />

Moroccan dish.<br />

KING ESTaTE PINOT GRIS<br />

uSA $24.99 419671<br />

This oregon beauty is a great<br />

example of the Pinot Gris<br />

varietal with lifted aromas,<br />

expressive juiciness, mouthwatering<br />

acidity and a caressing<br />

finish. Get out on the patio or<br />

pan sear some scallops!<br />

TaNQuERay NO. TEN<br />

united Kingdom $42.99 600163<br />

This gin is made with fresh, not<br />

dried, ingredients suspended<br />

in the small batch distillation<br />

column rather than added to<br />

the liquor. on the nose, find<br />

delicate juniper, freshly cut lime,<br />

tangerine, grapefruit and sweet<br />

apple. it is elegant and pillowy<br />

with a coconut-chamomile<br />

finish. Enjoy!<br />

BaSIL HaydEN’S BOuRBON<br />

uSA $49.95 106120<br />

What can one say but<br />

“fantastic!” Peppermint, spice,<br />

tea, chocolate, vanilla and<br />

honeyed notes are followed<br />

by a brief finish that is dry and<br />

clean. basil Hayden’s bourbon<br />

is elegant and soft and a great<br />

sipper!<br />

CazadORES añEJO<br />

Mexico $48.99 772376<br />

This is outstanding value for a<br />

premium tequila. Skip the salt<br />

and lime, enjoy this sipper on its<br />

own. if you are more traditional,<br />

it will also add new dimensions<br />

to tequila cocktails. Grab a<br />

snifter or a blender!<br />
