A spectacular new release from Balvenie. This single malt has been maturing for 16 years, first in American oak casks, then transferred in to Pineau casks from the French Charentes vineyards. Pineau des Charentes is a fortified wine, made from unfermented grape juice, to which a Cognac eau-de-vie is added and then matured. This has introduced to the flavour profile; a generous helping of honey glazed fruit and subtle green leafiness.
Balvenie say ‘A departure away for our core range, the ABV will be 47.6% and non-chill filtered, appealing to the changing consumer taste profile for single malt.’
Nose: Beautifully balanced light floral notes from lotus and geranium flowers dance between hints of fresh meadow grass, tangy yet sweet grapefruit and peeled apple skin, slight warmth of ginger bread fresh out of the oven.
Palate: An energizing zing from tangy lemon rind and grapefruit meet the delicate subtle sweetness of glazed fruits such as apricots and spice from root ginger mingling smoothly with buttery vanilla. Soft hints of the geranium continue.
Finish: More citrus and fresh honeydew melon. Refreshingly concise.
