Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Rose-gold with copper-pink highlights; distinctive Italian wine cask colour
Nose
Red fruit and wine — cherry, strawberry, raspberry, rose petal, dark chocolate. Barolo nebbiolo grape adds earthy complexity — truffle, dried herbs, and tar. Quite unique among Edradour cask finishes
Palate
Medium-full body. Red cherry, raspberry, strawberry, dark chocolate, and distinctive Barolo wine character — tar, rose, truffle, dried herbs. Underneath: honey, vanilla, soft Highland malt. Complex and food-like
Finish
Medium-long finish. Red fruit and wine tannins persist, truffle and tar character, gentle chocolate. Dry and slightly savoury — more Italian than Scottish
