GlenAllachie 2012 Wine Cask Finish Edition 2023
The GlenAllachie Wine Cask Finish series is a tribute to the art of aging and the expertise of master blender Billy Walker. For this 2023 edition, the whisky, first matured in American oak ex-bourbon casks, underwent a second aging in meticulously selected European wine barrels. This special edition, named "The Cuvée Wine Cask Finish," is an elegant and complex blend of four finishes from prestigious wine regions: the French AOCs of Languedoc and Médoc, as well as the Italian Grattamacco and Recioto della Valpolicella barrels. This rare single malt offers a unique aromatic richness, combining red fruits, delicate spices, and bursts of citrus for a sensory experience full of character.
TASTING NOTES:
COLOUR: Rosy gold.
NOSE: Pastel fruits, heather honey, and dried red berries, with notes of ginger, caramelized biscuit, and soft spices.
PALATE: Layers of orchard fruits, orange zest, and honeycomb, followed by notes of plum syrup, figs, and glacé cherries, with a hint of cinnamon, ginger, and red berries on the finish.
