Crafted from recyclable tin and featuring a removable wedge made entirely from sugarcane waste, the Clicquot Fridge is not only plastic-free but also serves as a stylish, upcycled designer box. Perfect for keeping your favorite bottle chilled for up to two hours, this chic and sustainable accessory is a must-have for holiday entertaining, blending timeless design with modern environmental consciousness.
An iconic Italian red, Riserva Ducale Oro is made from grapes harvested by hand, mostly from Ruffino’s Gretole estate in the Chianti Classico appellation. This wine expresses a distinctive Tuscan bouquet of violet, cherry, and plum, with aromas of chocolate and spice.
Cooper’s Reed Cabernet Sauvignon is a nod to Napa Valley winemaking history and a fresh take on a classic. Made with organic grapes, this Cabernet Sauvignon evolves with each sip and gracefully unfolds on the palate.
“The Brendel Cooper’s Reed Cabernet Sauvignon is a crowd-pleaser for holiday gatherings and an under-the-radar gift comparable to an age-worthy Cabernet Sauvignon at twice its price,” says McCoy. “The Cooper’s Reed is a pure expression of the vineyard, a high pedigree wine that is immensely delicious to drink now.”
Discover the elegance of Italian winemaking with Azienda Agricola Terrabianca's Vignot.

The latest addition to California winery Sonoma-Cutrer’s Winemaker’s Release series is the 2019 Grand Brut Rosé. The Winemaker’s Release is a series of wines that showcases Sonoma-Cutrer’s commitment to artisan craftsmanship and showcases their unique, high-quality production practices. The 2019 Grand Brut Rosé is light pink in color, with aromas of hibiscus flower, red-sour cherry, and a touch of watermelon, which are complemented with fresh brioche bread and mandarin citrus notes. On the palate, the wine features notes of mandarin, kumquat, citrus fruit, a touch of wet stone minerality, and light cherry flavors that are balanced with Sonoma-Cutrer’s signature acidity. Pair this celebratory sparkler with goat cheese, fruit tarts, or fresh oysters with salmon caviar for a decadent experience.
This red field blend is a walk in the sun and meant to be enjoyed in its youth. A unique perspective of the largest Demeter Certified Biodynamic ranch in Napa, the Andosol has intensity and depth, with incredible aging potential.
“The Ink Grade Andosol is a perfect addition to the holiday table, as it is a versatile red blend that pairs well with a range of entrees and side dishes, such as duck, ham, and potatoes,” says McCoy. “I often recommend this wine without specifying a particular food pairing. The roundness and hint of spicy opulence offer density, without overpowering a dish, making it perennially food-friendly.”
The A to Z Oregon Pinot Noir has complexity and depth resulting from diverse sourcing across Western Oregon’s dynamic growing regions. Over 70 vineyard sites with different microclimates and soil types contribute to the layered nuancing in this classic Oregon Pinot Noir. Great for Pinot Noir lovers or those new to Pinot Noir or Oregon wine. Also available at Drizly.

For decades, snack lovers had two choices – if it tasted good, then it had to be “junk.” And if it’s good for you, then it probably tastes like cardboard. PeaTos sees a better way. We’ve created the first snack that offers the nostalgic taste and fun of Cheetos and Funyuns but without the junk. By substituting peas for corn, PeaTos adds 2x the protein and 3x the fiber for a more satisfying plant-based snack that helps keep you fuller, longer and ditches the GMO and artificial ingredients, additives and colors. No longer do snackers have to sacrifice taste for nutrition!

Drinks To Celebrate St. Patrick's Day 2022
St. Patrick’s Day is on the horizon, which means it’s time to start planning your celebrations. When people think about St. Patrick’s Day drinks, the first thing that often comes to mind is a pint of Guinness and a shot of Jameson. While those are definitely good choices (we’ll certainly be having one — or three— on the big day), St. Patrick’s Day drinks can actually be a whole lot more.
If you’re looking to shake things up this St. Patrick’s day, here are a few cocktails to try:
Proper Coffee Drop
.75 oz Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey
.25 oz Coffee Liqueur
10 oz Irish Stout
Pour Proper No. Twelve Irish Whiskey Irish Whiskey and coffee liqueur and into a shot glass and drop into a pint glass of Irish Stout.
As one of the most celebrated holidays globally, St. Patrick’s Day is all about bringing people together, and what better way to do that than by raising a glass of Elysian Brewing’s best-selling Space Dust IPA (8.2% ABV), which balances bitterness with the sweetness of grapefruit, mango and orange aromas.
If you’re searching for “something green” to bring to your St. Patrick’s Day party, look no further! Space Dust’s iconic green mascot, Dusty, featured on every can and bottle, is here to help you avoid the pinch. Plus, the Elysian team has released an easy-to-make festive drink recipe called the Irish Astronaut, which cleverly features 50% Nitro Irish Stout and 50% Space Dust IPA.
This St. Patrick’s Day, skip the stouts and shots and celebrate Ireland in luxury. Glendalough Distillery is the first Irish whiskey brand to use the rare and exotic Mizunara oak, where the woods of Wicklow meet the island of Hokkaido in the form of a rare, exquisite whiskey. Unlock Glendalough 7-Year-Old Single Malt Mizunara Finish – the key to your best, most elevated St. Patrick’s Day yet!
Mizunara’s rarity makes sourcing a great undertaking, but Glendalough was ready for the challenge of being the first Irish whiskey to utilize this oak. The trunks of these uniquely beautiful trees are prone to growing twisted, and they must grow to be twice the age of most oak trees before they can be felled. It then takes three years to dry, and even then, is notoriously difficult to cooper due to its porousness. However, therein lies its saving grace: whiskey can seep deeper into the wood, resulting in an alluring, exotic flavor.
Verde Te Quiero Verde
1 oz Mezcal Montelobos Espadín
1 oz Ancho Reyes Verde
1 TBSP Chia seeds
75 oz Simple Syrup
1 oz lime juice
2 oz Seltzer Water
Garnish
Top with mint leaves and lime juice
Combine Mezcal Montelobos Espadín, Ancho Reyes Verde, Chia seeds, simple syrup, and lime juice in a shaker and shake well. Serve over a Collins glass with ice and add seltzer water to top off. Stir with a spoon.
Spicy Verde Margarita
45 ml Espolòn Blanco
15 ml of Ancho Reyes Verde
30 ml Fresh Lime Juice
10 ml agave syrup (depending on sweetness)
Garnish
Sea salt crust rim (half rim is a good option)
Lime peel or wedge
Shake ingredients with plenty of ice, double strain in a in a coupette. Garnish with lime peel/wedge.
Jameson Cold Brew & Cola
1 part Jameson Cold Brew
2 parts Cola
Orange peel
Method: Build over ice in a high ball glass and garnish with Orange Peel.
Tullamore D.E.W. Irish Whiskey
St. Paddy’s Day is almost here, and with nearly 200 St. Paddy’s Days under its belt, Tullamore D.E.W. Irish Whiskey knows a thing or two, not only about celebrating the holiday itself, but how to actually spell it. Year in and year out, Americans seem to get it wrong, opting for the use of the double T instead of the double D…
To offer a tasty spelling lesson, Tullamore D.E.W. has partnered with acclaimed American butcher Pat LaFrieda to create the ultimate St. Paddy’s Day Patty to help fans from making the common spelling mistake between a meat patty and Ireland’s national holiday.
The specialty St. Paddy’s Day Patty is made up of a proprietary blend made by Pat himself and inspired by Tullamore D.E.W. Beginning Thursday, March 10th, 193 kits will be made available via LaFrieda.com nodding to the 193-year history behind the Tullamore D.E.W. brand.
