Tasting Notes

GlenAllachie's 10 Year Old Grattamacco Wine Cask Finish is a delightful Scotch whisky that takes you on a journey through a symphony of flavors. Matured initially in bourbon barrels, it then receives a unique finish in Grattamacco wine barriques sourced from the renowned Bolgheri area in Tuscany. This imparts luscious notes of juicy blackcurrant and sweet tannins, beautifully complementing the core flavors. On the nose, you're greeted by a burst of dark chocolate, butterscotch, and heather honey, intertwined with hints of caramelized brown sugar and cinnamon spice. The palate is a wave of ripe red berries, grapefruit, and toasted honeycomb, offering a delightful contrast of flavors. The finish lingers with notes of butterscotch, sugared fruit, and an earthy touch of black truffle. Bottled at 48% ABV, non-chill filtered, and without added coloring, this single malt from master distiller Billy Walker is a true celebration of flavors.
