Tito's Handmade Vodka
Tito's Handmade Vodka is designed to be savored by spirit connoisseurs. It is micro-distilled in an old-fashioned pot still, just like fine single malt scotches and high-end French cognacs. This time-honored method of distillation requires more skill and effort than modern column stills, but it's well worth it. Our handcrafted technique offers more control over the distillation process, resulting in a spectacularly clean product of incomparable excellence. Only the heart of the run, "the nectar" is taken, leaving behind residual higher and lower alcohols. The vodka is cleansed of phenols, esters, congenersand organic acids by filtering it through the finest activated carbon available. Critics call Tito's "a homegrown symphonic spirt to applaud!" and say "it can go head to head with any of the worlds' greats and not break a sweat."

Broquel Malbec
Wine Advocate 88 points - The oldest of the Trapiche brands, the 2017 Broquel Malbec was sourced from different vineyards in the departments of San Carlos and Tunuyan in the Valle de Uco. It fermented in concrete and stainless steel vats followed by malolactic in barrels and aged in new and used French oak barrels for nine months. It’s clean and fruit-driven, quite straightforward, with some spicy flavors and aromas. The palate is soft and approachable. One million bottles produced. There are four bottlings from the same blend.  (Jun 2018)

Trapiche Oak Cask Malbec 
Purpled-colored, the nose offers up pain grille, mineral, plums and black cherry notes with a touch of black pepper. The palate is soft and round, with ripe, saturated berry flavors. Finishes spicy and full, with chewy tannins.
