It took almost three years for me to be able to pick out my own barrel of Clyde May’s. Before that, I was always just offered me their Alabama Whiskey. Not that it’s not great – it is, but I’m a purist and like high proof straight bourbon. Thankfully, my persistence paid off last and I was able to select a 5-year old Bourbon. Coming from Alabama, I wasn’t sure how it was going to do…
If you’re wondering how I was able to get a second barrel, (while most wait for the chance to pick out their first) I’ll tell you exactly how. The Bourbon Buyers Club. After telling my friends in Alabama we sold our entire barrel in just two days, the team down there was crazy excited (maybe they think we all just drink Cranberry juice) and offered us a second barrel of their prized whiskey. Our club has grown a little bit since our last offering, so I would not wait around too long for this one.

The juice here is so pure and elegant, it tastes much more like a $80/bottle of Tequila than one going for half the price, but that’s why I love these single barrel deals so much. The value is insane. This Reposado spent just under 12 months in used bourbon barrels. Golden brown with fresh agave, oak & vanilla. Remarkably smooth finish. This is one of those oddball tequila’s that is good enough to just sip on the rocks but cheap enough to use to make one hell of a margarita.
This is my third private barrel of Bourbon that I sourced from Bulleit and my first since 2022. Believe you me, they give you a ton (and I mean a ton) of samples to go through to make up for lost time. The winning combo is something people are going to love. Allow me to introduce you to Barrel #5-B3-82. It’s smooth and layered, with a full creamy mouthfeel and manages to sneak in at 104 Proof. On the nose, I get fresh cut oak, vanilla and brown butter. On the palate, freshly baked banana bread, burnt orange and graham cracker.
The secret to Philippe’s tightly wound, complex Pinot Noir is a combo of ancient vines, natural farming techniques, and low yields. The wines are built to age, with incredible tension and length. And the secret to me securing his other-wordly 2017 old-vine Gevry-Chambertin can be chalked up to a great relationship and over a decade supporting superior Burgundian winemaking. The wine is scary good. The nose is wild, filled with spiced dark raspberries, red flowers, and baking spices. The palate is elegant and racy, with a dynamic tension that runs right through its minute-long finish. This is a high-toned, wound-up Pinot, that is starting to hit its prime and is really turning out to be a ‘must-have’ for true Burgundy lovers.
The 2022 Juliana Layla Pinot Noir: named after our now 13-year old daughter, her latest in a line of worthy Pinot Noirs. This is a delicious and super fresh cuvee that leads with cherry cola notes, blackberry juice, and violet notes with a hint of baking spice. It’s a pure-fruited, high-toned Pinot Noir with a great mid-palate, silky tannins, and a lot of focus. This is the very last of our two pallets. They can’t make anymore!
