Rhone
Roussanne/ Marsanne, Peay Vineyards, Sonoma, CA, 2021On a lark we planted a few rows of Roussanne and Marsanne in 1998 as we enjoyed a wine made from these grapes grown in the warmer continental region of Hermitage in the Rhône Valley. These days you won’t find much Roussanne or Marsanne wine on the shelf
Scotch
Scotch, "Single Malt 12yr Doublewood", Balvenie, 750mLThe Doublewood 12yr gains its distinctive character from being matured in two different wood types. Each stage lends different qualities to the resulting single malt whisky. The traditional casks soften and add delicate character....

Bourbon
Bourbon "Ocean Aged", Jefferson's, 750mlNose: Crème brûlée, sweet tobacco and sea spray
Flavor: Caramel, light brown sugar, cinnamon, sea salt and a hint of espresso
Finish: Long, smooth finish that thoroughly coats the pallet with notes of classic Cracker Jacks and sea salt
Cabernet Sauvignon
Cabernet Sauvignon, Rombauer Vineyards, Napa Valley, CA, 2019Deep purple with a bright fuscia rim. Aromas of red cherry and sage with a hint of violet, spice and toast. Full-bodied, with flavors of raspberry and black cherry, with notes of violet and toast. Supple tannins carry through to a fine and smooth finish.
Burgundy
Gevrey-Chambertin, Domaine Rene Leclerc, Burgundy, FR, 2018 (Francois Leclerc)Tender raspberries contrast with a meaty, firm underpinning. The wine is both elegant and brooding, in possession of both good acidity and a ripe character.

Tequila
Tequila, "#1 El Desliz" Cambio, 750mLCognaclike nose of gently toasted French Oak giving way to deep roasted agave, loads of spice, tropical fruits on the mid palate, & an incredibly long, lingering finish. Oak tannins & tons of texture create a palate sensory density uncommon to an anejo.
