Electra Orange Muscat 2009.. grassy, soapstone, not nearly as thick and cloying as I assumed... tea and orange...

Electra Red , roses and grapes... a low alcohol alternative for those looking for a sweet red wine..again.. not thick on the palate at all.

Elysium Black Muscat 2008 interesting grape varietal made from a cross of Muscat de Alexandria and Black Hamburg, which was a favorite of Henry the 8th's court.

Starboard Batch 88.. forgot to ask why the nautical reference.. on the nose a little medicinal , bug spray like off, luckily the flavors on the palate were much more in the with a tawny style port. nutty almond, apricot.

VYA an Vermouth made for todays mixologist who want more flavor in their mixed drinks. The dry was all about the herbal, and these were not shy vermouths at all.. The sweet was more about the nutmeg and flowers...
