BMWBen Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Celebrating a new job today. I know even less about champagne than wine (which is none) but I've had it a few times before and like it 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rye Posted December 7, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2016 I haven't been posting a ton here lately, but still replenishing some tasty bottles. These two were a gift from a good friendSome nice Canadian and US juices to switch things up a bitThe Tomnabat Hill is a spectacular drop and I will enjoy getting to know this complex dramSome Costco grabs. May have to try one of the bottles of port to see if I should stash away a few more I can never run out of the Bowmore 12My first go at the newer style packaging on the Tali DE. Really like the stuff Never tried anything but the regular version of the Dalwhinnie and the price was right. Great colourCheers! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LBVs usually don't need much shelf time in the bottle due to their longer time in the cask. I got the same bottling here (the latest I think), which is very enjoyable right now (a very deep and fruity stile). But you can also lay them down for a couple of years. Enjoy!

sengjc Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Did you buy a cask? what type of cask was it? Nah, bought this bottle on auction. From the colour, I would say it is bourbon cask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Festa Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Got two of these for my dad's birthday. Just trying them now. The Nova is head and shoulders above the Alba. Price point would suggest different. Alba needs years. But the Nova is really bloody good already. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fosgate Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Rum Ratings puts it in top 10 aged, few decent reviews on the stuff.
