(batch 11) - when deciding what to have this evening I stumbled upon this unopened bottle on my Rye shelf and decided this was the right time. I am a huge fan of the port finished AMND (High West, not had Glenmorangie's yet) and also love the base Rendezvous Rye. As I love the Double Rye I was excited to try this, the DR finished in Vermouth and Syrah. Nose is spice with dark fruit; woody notes. Palate enters raisins, dark fruit; the influence of the Vermouth and Syrah is notable. The finish goes on long enough and has an almost a dessert raisin and fig character. Another winner, highly recommended 92-94.
