Fine Wine Cabinet
No, it’s not as exciting as Kerouac, but in the past year Colonial Spirits has been to every corner of Eastern Massachusetts, as our delivery service expands.
A couple of weeks ago we spent a good chunk of time installing a new piece of shelving in beer-land, and since then I’ve been slowly expanding some of our selections and introducing some new products. I’ve gotten a fair few requests for more efficiently spreading the word about the arrival of limited release beers and oddities that come our way, so now we’ve given them a dedicated spot: the experiment area. The top two shelves, all the way to the right, are now going to play host to whatever odds and ends arrive that wouldn’t otherwise have a home… for example, right now I have some Troeg’s Flying Mouflan (Nugget Nectar on steroids!), The Alchemist’s “Celia” Saison (gluten-free from a brewery rarely seen in MA!), and the Stone/Bottleworks “13” collaboration brew.

There are plenty of great domestic Syrah, the only issue is they cost more than what most people want to spend on a bottle of wine. That is why I am exuberantly happy to say that Owen Roe ‘Ex Umbris’ Syah, Columbia Valley 2010 is in. One of the greatest domestic Syrah which happens to be plush with flavors of dark plums, cherries, sarsaparilla and cream, alongside hints of cherry, tobacco and peppery bacon. This wine will mature beautifully over the next 5 years and will continue to drink well for an additional 3-5 . Can you believe you can get all of this for under $30? The last vintage of Ex Umbris received a score of 93 from the Wine Spectator and also happened to be the #25 of the Top 100 list. Although this is the 2010 and not the 2009, do not worry because 2010 is supposed to be as good if not better (I was told first hand by a few WA state winemakers) than 2009. I only have 9 cases available so act quickly, prices will go up once people catch on to this wine, especially if it receives another high score.
