 Waterford Irish Whiskey Zoom
Tasting w/Raj Sabharwal owner of Glass Revolution
Wednesday, January 20th
7-8:30pm (room opens at 6:30)
On Jan 20th, Welcome back our friend, Raj Sabharwal, importer, spirits expert and one of the true gents in the industry. Raj is focusing on the long awaited project from former Bruichladdich distillery co-owner, Mark Reynier. Below is his mission statement for the distillery
“We chose Waterford, for here on the banks of the river Suir, on Ireland’s sunny south-eastern coast, we have an exceptional state-of-the-art facility originally built by Diageo in 2004 and converted to distilling in 2015. And we have the finest quality raw materials: the purest of spring water from renowned ancient wells; a team of passionate distillers that share the vision; and the very best barley in the world. Using the world's finest barley, our Single Farm Origin series is an uber- provenance range of natural whiskies that explore Irish terroir one place, one farm, at a time. Barley-forward, terroir-driven, natural whisky. No coloring, chill-filtration or any additives whatsoever.”
Purchase a minimum of one bottle of Waterford Irish Whiskey to be included in the zoom tasting. Pick any one of the expressions below and we’ll email you the Zoom invite. If you have already purchased one of the Waterford expressions, email me at dave@winandcheeseplace.com |

Bodegas Aleanna - El Enemigo Chardonnay 2021 (750ml)

|
|

This is another rock-star chardonnay from here with dried-apple, pear-skin, crushed-stone and peach-pit character. Full body. Creamy texture. Phenolic form and a long, flavorful finish.

L'Aventure - Cote a Cote Estate Paso Robles 2017 (750ml)
|
|
|
|
L'Aventure Wines huge scores!
The only Grenache-dominated release is the 2017 Côte A Côte, a blend of 48% Grenache, 32% Mourvèdre, and the rest Syrah that spent 14 months in 30% new French oak. It's one sexy red that offers full-bodied richness and depth as well as brilliant notes of blackberries, black raspberries, ground pepper, potpourri, and flowery incense aromas and flavors. This smoking Grenache is elegant, with no hard edges, beautiful purity, and a great finish. It shows how successful Grenache was in 2017 and is a magical wine.

L'Aventure - Estate Cuvée Paso Robles 2017 (750ml)
|
|
|
|
L'Aventure Wines huge scores!
The flagship 2017 Estate Cuvée (49% Syrah, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 21% Petit Verdot) spent 15 months in 90% new French oak, and I certainly blew the barrel review on this wine. It offers a brilliant bouquet of crème de cassis, crushed violets, lead pencil, chocolate, and a rocking sense of minerality. Deep, full-bodied, concentrated, and seamless on the palate, it's about as polished and sexy as they come in the vintage.

Don Ramon - Tequila Anejo (750ml)
|
|
|
|
Soft and well-structured, this aged Tequila mixes spicy and sweet to delightful effect. Long honey notes linger on the tongue, tapering off with a welcome touch of cayenne-ginger heat. Sip straight up or pair with Mexican dishes with bold flavors.

Neutral spirit made from molasses; infusion of yellow gentian, trumpet gentian, wormwood, musk yarrow, genepi and germander from Mount Noveis; additional infusions of chinchona, rhubarb, sweet and bitter orange, licorice and anise

Made in Ghemme, Piedmont since the early 1960s, this bitter liqueur is made from an infusion of over a dozen botanicals including gentian root, wormwood, yarrow, nutmeg, anise, cinchona, rhubarb and more.

Mondino - Aperitivo (1L)
|
|
|
|
Made in Bavaria Germany
Organic
No High Fructose Corn Syrup
No Artificial colorants
No Artificial flavors
No Animal based ingredients
Following the original Italian recipe, our aperitif is handcrafted in the pristine foothills of the Bavarian Alps. Fruity citrus aromas are accompanied by the flavour of alpine herbs – this is how the first German organic bitter gains its taste. Mondino is Bavarian craftsmanship combined with the Italian zest for life.
Aromatic alpine herbs, fresh citrus fruits from the south, and natural spring water from Bavaria contribute to the wonderfully unique and complex taste of our aperitif. Its excellent quality meets the high standards of professionals. Barkeepers draw inspiration for creating completely new drinks. But also the classics such as “Spritz” or “Negroni” take a fresh and modern twist.
