Château de Montifaud has been in the Vallet family for 6 generations, and this is where the Ugni Blanc is stored on the lees for 2-3 months until distillation, before being double distilled in centuries old copper stills. The maturation occurs in new oak casks for one year, before it is transferred into old oak (4-15 years old) for the remaining ageing time. The total process lasts a total of around 8-10 years.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Delicate floral notes linger and fade into a slow evolution toward apricots, pears and nuts. Tremendously smooth and intensely long.
