The last time I was at Jefferson’s with Dan Burke (chief barrel officer), Dan told me he had a barrel of Ocean’s that he loves & thought I should taste. “It’s nothing like the others, trust me.” I obliged and reluctantly agreed, and quickly discovered that what I was tasting was the best Jefferson’s that I ever tasted.
“Why have you been holding out, what the hell is that?”
This was ‘Voyage 22,’ which was the only time they ever did a wheated bourbon for their ‘Oceans’ line. Of course, you know I’m not shy, so I asked if I could buy it. Dan said they are way passed selling this barrel as they were on to Voyage 26. This barrel was the owner, Trey’s. Ugh. Oh well — at least I picked up a great Jefferson’s Reserve while I was there.
Well, Dan must have toked up a good one the next morning or something because he called me all chipper and said, “I’m sending you Trey’s barrel but don’t tell anyone!” Hah, me? I would never!!

Who doesn’t love Big Bottles?!? This is one I’ve never gotten before and didn’t even know existed before the cult winery reached out with “something special for our support” last week. You have to go all the back to the tough 2014 vintage to find a ‘Southing’ Pinot Noir from Sea Smoke that got less than a 95-point score. Not only is Sea Smoke’s winemaking team outstanding, but their single-vineyards represent some of the best land anywhere in the Russian River Valley. The ‘Southing’ Pinot Noir is the marriage of elegance and complexity utilizing the Sea Smoke Estate Vineyard along the Santa Ynez River.
99-100 Points, James Suckling – 98 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
“So aromatic and fresh with black olives, black truffles, gravel and dried flowers. Milk chocolate. Ovaltine. Full-bodied with fantastic old-vine tannins. Layered and very structured. Goes deep and down. One for the cellar. Superb. Maybe the best ever.” -James Suckling
Rich and creamy notes of toasted oak, vanilla, caramel, and fresh baked Bundt cake immediately flood the sense’s as soon as you pop this one open. Bottled at 100-Proof, you get a little bit of heat on the front palate followed by rich oak, leather and freshly baked bread. As it starts to open, you get some sweeter, creamy vanilla notes that cream in as well as campfire s’mores and a dash of pepper. The finish is long, and a bit spicy which leaves a memorable aftertaste and leaves you wanting more.
This one is an aromatic fireworks show followed by a Big Red with a mouthful of red and black currants, plum, and licorice. There’s some notes of cedar, crushed herbs, and nutmeg here too that all mesh together nicely to create a lush, full-bodied wine with plenty of layers and a lengthy memorable finish.
