Old Elk is a project that those in the “know” have been waiting a decade to come to fruition. Greg Metze was the master distiller at MGP for the last 38 years and is the wizard behind the curtain of many of your favorite bourbons. He left MGP to start his own project & turn all of his experience in to his Opus. Old Elk makes a few different expressions but what I found the most interesting is his Wheated Bourbon. To have the opportunity to buy a bottle from a single barrel of 6-year-old juice at cask strength from Old Elk is what the Bourbon Buyers Club is all about.
Bottled at Cask Strength – 115.4 proof
A very balanced sipper for sure- on the nose, buttered popcorn, vanilla & Toffee.
On the palate- dried peach, baked apple pie & milk chocolate.
The finish is long and lingering with a sweetness that gives way to winter spice that goes on for 2 minutes .

“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

Far Niente’s beloved Napa Valley Cabernet comes from a who’s who of the best vineyard sites throughout Napa Valley. It’s a seamless Cabernet blend sourced from Oakville, Stag’s Leap, Diamond Mountain, St. Helena, Calistoga, Oak Knoll and the winery’s estate fruit in Yountville. The 2021 vintage is a particular high note – it’s a must-have for Big Red, Napa and Cabernet lovers.
True whiskey and Knob Creek enthusiasts are going to go nuts for this one. Knob Creek Rye is as outstanding as it is rare but today we’re lucky enough to bring to you, my own single barrel of it. This is a big gold expression of Rye that holds nothing back. On the nose, there are hints of dill, rye and essence of charred oak. On the palate, you are hit over the head with baking spice, honey and freshly baked bread. The finish is certainly a warm “Kentucky Hug” that goes on forever.
95 Points, Vinous
Their flagship bottling is memorable every single year, but in 2018, the winery hit a particularly high note. As you probably already noted, Vinous declared the bottlings one of the best examples of the grape they’ve ever tasted. That’s pretty loud praise. They gave it an emphatic 95-point score for good measure. It deserves every point, if not more.
