Rosencrantz

Glenglassaugh Revival

Single Malt — Highlands, Scotland

Reviewed May 7, 2020 (edited September 29, 2020)
3.75
3.75 out of 5 stars
My Lord, the red wine is quite strong here! The first approach to the glass is of very clear red fruit, with an explosion of strawberries, blueberries, cherries, plums... sweet and sour, where sherry and wine team up to asphalt everything else on the nose. Digging in this fruity blanket, you can find some marzipan, nutmeg, dried dates, some hazelnuts. The influence of the barrels is very strong, quite too much. And it's the sherry that dominates the palate, very pasty, with raisins infused in alcohol, cinnamon, a touch of pepper, dark chocolate, plums, light woody background. Warm and soft, but fairly flat and monotonous. Medium finish, slightly ashy, spicy, of wine, cherries, wood. Definitely the least interesting of the three NAS of the Glenglassaugh core range, the contribution of wine barrels disturbs the aromas on the nose and then practically fades on the palate, which remains in the wake of the thousands and thousands sherried already on the market. Surely it is not to be thrown away, given the price, but it is largely negligible.
