BELLEVOYE Blanc

BELLEVOYE BLANC, the whisky from France matured in Sauternes barrels.
Sauternes wines are reputed to be the best sweet wines in the world. Indeed, the exceptional microclimate of the appellation during the harvest (cool nights and humid mornings) develops noble rot on the grapes, which leads to a concentration of sugars and candied aromas.
The barrels used in the final maturing process come from a famous Sauternes Cru Classé. To guarantee the freshness of the aromas, we empty the wine from the barrel and fill it immediately with whisky. Thanks to this method, we do not use sulphur, which is used to preserve the empty barrels between these two stages. This avoids bad tastes being transferred to the whisky by the sulphur meching of the barrels.
Profile: balance, elegance, roundness and aromatic complexity.
