Wine & Spirts: October 2010
RED
Adelsheim Pinot Noir Elizabeth Reserve
Oregon
$55
No doubts remain that Oregon makes great pinot. Decades of David Adelsheim prove it, and the 2008 is one of the best — full, earthy and rich. This calls for a great piece of salmon.
White
Martin Codax Albarino
Spain
$20
A new treasure from Spain’s rugged northwest corner. You can smell a bit of the sea and a boatload of fresh herbs, pears and apples, crisp with a touch of sweetness. Put some shrimp and scallops on
the grill.?
Whiskey
Evan Williams Vintage Single Barrel Straight Bourbon
Kentucky
$25
While black label EW is standard pour, the Single Barrel is very special stuff — no blending, just a rich whiskey aged in a single oak barrel. Vintages are available for 1999 and 2000. Each shows different sweets and spice, both in a long, creamy drink.
