Nose: Sweet and dry Sauternes with great and fresh barley feel. Some earthly tones as well with green tea influence. Drops of water makes the sweet wine dominate the nose.
Taste: Nicely dry with peppery and grassy notes. Sweet wine and fructose feel. Water gets the peppers flowing with more power.
Finish: Hints of bitter peaches, like tasting the fur on top of peach peel. Dry oak dominates with spices.
Balance: The influence of the wine is huge. And though I'm not a wine drinker myself, I like it. Good whisky and finally, a character from Glenmorangie!
