The Balvenie - French Oak 16YO Pineau Cask 700ml
"French Oak finished in Pineau Casks.
The Balvenie French Oak whisky is a vibrant single malt finished in casks that previously held wine from the French Charentes vineyards. Pineau des Charentes is a fortified wine made from unfermented grape juice, to which a Cognac eau-de-vie is added and then matured. Pineau is also found as a home-made product in the neighbouring Deau-Sevres and Vendee departements.
First cask: American Oak
Sixteen years of maturation in American Oak casks brings an abundance of vanilla spice and warm honey notes.
Second cask: Pineau Cask
Finishing in Pineau casks brings energizing grapefruit, geranium, glazed fruit and ginger." - The Balvenie
