Description
The distillery say "Every year we release an expression of Aberfeldy finished in a different red wine cask. Each one adds different fruit and oak flavours to our delicate spirit. In 2021 Stephanie Macleod selected Cote Rotie red wine casks, a powerful and elegant red wine from the Rhône Valley. They were chosen to bestow expressive and seductive qualities, silky textures and fruits with luscious, red berry characteristics on the 18 year old Aberfeldy single malt.
Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: This sumptuous dram is bursting with intense, rich fruity red berry notes of raspberry, lingonberry and red currents smothered in honey. |
Taste |
Distillery: Deeply evocative of an Eton Mess pudding. A zing of candied citrus peel brings balance before mellowing to a smooth vanilla and butterscotch sweetness |
Finish |
Distillery: Smooth vanilla and butterscotch sweetness |
