Laphroaig Oak The Wall Collection (Rope Edition) 39 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Product Description: The Wall Collection Rope Edition 39 Year Old is an exceptionally rare expression that captures the history, place, and character of Laphroaig at its most elevated. Part of a limited series celebrating the iconic wall of Warehouse No.1, this release explores the relationship between Islay peat and long sherry maturation, expressed through both spirit and design. Matured for 39 years, the whisky draws depth and richness from Oloroso sherry seasoned European oak hogsheads before finishing in a Pedro Ximénez sherry seasoned European oak butt. The result is a composed and deeply layered single malt, where gentle peat smoke is woven through notes of toffee, dark red fruit, polished leather, and sweet spice. Bottled in extremely limited quantities, only 200 bottles were released worldwide. Each bottle is individually hand-painted by British artist and ceramicist Laura Carlin using the same green paint applied annually to the Laphroaig lettering on the distillery wall. The rope motif references the historic puffer boats that once carried sherry casks to Islay’s shores, tying together craftsmanship, maritime heritage, and flavour. This is a whisky for collectors and devoted Laphroaig enthusiasts, offering a rare opportunity to experience mature Islay peat shaped by time, sherry influence, and a profound sense of place. Tasting Notes NOSE – Spiced toffee and dried fruit richness Soft maritime peat rises alongside notes of polished leather, molasses, red cherry, cranberry and hints of mandarin and salted caramel. PALATE – Rich, smooth and layered Treacle toffee, candied orange, toasted hazelnut and ripe dried fruits unfold across a gently smoky and subtly sweet palate, framed by refined oak. FINISH – Long, smoky and elegant Smoked orange, soft oak tannins and warming spice give way to a lingering maritime finish with echoes of peat and sherry-soaked depth.

Le Pin
One of the most expensive Bordeaux wines - and indeed, one of the priciest anywhere - Le Pin is a surprisingly recent arrival on the global stage, with its first vintage having been produced just decades ago in 1979. Originally priced at a modest 700 francs, the praise garnered by the 1982 vintage propelled Le Pin into the global limelight, with sales from that point on par with - or exceeding - those of First Growth Bordeaux wines. An exotic style of Bordeaux, Le Pin possesses a resplendent, lavish mouth-feel with intensely ripe fruit aromas and hints of smoke on the palate.
Rousseau Clos de Bèze
Rousseau Chambertin Grand Cru
One of the greatest names in all of Burgundy, dating back to the 1930s when Armand was one of the first of five domaines to defy the negociants and bottle their own wine. The Rousseau name is synonymous with Gevrey-Chambertin; Armand passed the reins to Charles who on retirement passed control to his son Eric.

Château Pétrus Pomerol
Château Pétrus is one of Bordeaux's most important vineyard sites, lying on the easterly edge of the Pomerol appellation bordering Saint-Émilion. Although wines of Pomerol have never been classified, it is widely recognised that Pétrus is the most outstanding wine of the appellation, if not the entire Right Bank. Almost always made entirely of Merlot, the 2009 is one such vintage which is 100% single varietal. The perfect vintage conditions have provided the expert team at Pétrus the ideal opportunity to provide with a wine that comes as close to perfection as humanly possible. Stunning concentration and complexity run through the entire palate that is remarkably ready to drink today, yet will live comfortably in the cellar gathering further intense flavours and aromas for the next 20 to 30 years.
