The Balvenie16YO French Oak Pineau Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL
About this product
The Balvenie French Oak is a vibrant single maly finished in casks previously held wine from the French Charentes vineyards.
Peneau des Charentes - it 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 Deux-Sèvres and Vendée Départements.
US Brand Ambassador Lorne Cousin suggested Malt Master David C. Stewart MBE explore these casks after a trip to the region with this family where he fondly recalled sipping an aperitif.
This is the first of The Balvenie finishes to explore French Oak. Pineau is akin to cognac in terms of production and flavour; allowing us to capitalise on the rise of this flavour profile and its premium credentials.
TASTING NOTES:
An energising zing from tangy lemon rind and grapefruit meet the delicate subtle sweetness of glazed fruits and spice from root ginger.
SERVING SUGGESTION:
Serve neat or with a couple of drops of water (to bring out the flavours).
