Deanston 2008 Bordeaux Red Wine

Tannic and dark red dried fruit 🙌🏻

Found it at $55, for the price it’s a steal. Nose: red wine influence is profound, on the fruity side, dry, honey, sugary Palate: neat without water, almost overpowering alcohol burn with berries, peppery, then the bitter oak at the end. The wine influence is apparent. It’s dry, tannic, but the high abv is very punchy makes you forgot all the quality of the wine. with water: it’s much softer and mellow, honey, the water really brings out the oak and the depth of the wine. Finish: medium, warm, fruity and sweet notes. Hint of bitter and wood. For the price hell ya it’s a steal, but it is a young 9 yr old unconventional scotch that really tests your palate.

Een zoete, iets scherpe whiskey. Vanille, honing met een kruidige afdronk
