A 20 year old Dalmore single malt, distilled in 1995 and finished in casks that previously held intensely sweet Sauternes wine! This is a special edition release, joining a range of bottlings that were presented as part of La Maison du Whisky's 60th Anniversary celebrations. Here's to many more!
Rich, complex. The Sauternes’ influence is dazzling while also being wonderfully reserved and mellow. With a remarkable juicy, fruity sweetness (pineapple, William pear), the aromatic palette gradually swings between oak and candied grapes. Gently rocked by a mild chocolatey and herbaceous bitterness (sage, vervain) its fruity register continues to build. The crescendo comes with delicious honey, noble spices and heady florals (mimosa, broom).
Lively, clean. Intensely fruity (grapes, melon), the attack also offers notes of vanilla and liquorice. In the mid-palate, fine notes of chocolate mingle with red fruits (strawberry, raspberry). Well-rounded, it grows increasingly voluptuous and creamy. At last, the malted barley decides to take charge, creating the perfect balance between the Sauternes wine and the grain. Tremendous charm: the flavour palette is absolutely magnificent.
Silky, enveloping. With remarkable freshness, the finish is divinely chocolatey and roasted (coffee, tobacco). Very noble in its expression, it becomes powdery (cocoa), spicy (cardamom) and floral (lime blossom, mint). The retro-nasal olfaction reveals juicy citrus fruit (orange, tangerine) and various infusions (tea, lime blossom). The empty glass is camphoric, transporting us back to the Dalmore’s shadowy cellars.
