There’s something that just makes sense about ageing Benriach in a Sauternes barrel. This version is the perfect example. From the very beginning, the scene is set and it is impossible to ignore the ingenuity of a marriage between this Speyside Single Malt and the famous sweet wine from Bordeaux. Better yet, throughout the tasting, the links created by these two protagonists grow stronger, reaching their peak in a spirited and wonderfully expressive finish that continues right to the empty glass._x000D_
Tasting notes
Nose : simultaneously firm and unctuous. Right from the first nose, the malted barley and botrytised grapes rival each other in intensity. Next, notes of cut hay produced by the grains create a wonderful support for honeyed (acacia), exotic (pineapple) and delicately spiced (ginger, cinnamon) notes. Gradually the nose then becomes fruitier, juicier (William’s pear) and fresher (spearmint). As a whole, it is wonderfully balanced._x000D_
Palate : lively yet generous. Like the nose, the attack reveals delicately herby, lavish (chervil, bay leaf, fennel) and fruity (roasted apple, mirabelle plum) notes. With huge finesse, the mid-palate then shows lots of character. Extremely svelte, it continually gains in elegance. Fresh fruit (peach, apricot) are followed by dried fruit (date, fig, walnut). The end of the palate is equally well-balanced._x000D_
Overall : long, smooth. Notes of herbal tea (verbena, camomile) highlight its heady temperament, while grapes that burst with sugar gradually take hold of the taste buds. The impressively malty end of the palate is equally delicious, revealing lots of dried fruit. A handful of spices (cardamom, nutmeg) then add huge vitality. The particularly exotic (coconut, banana) retro-nasal olfaction is also creamy (almond milk). The empty glass literally transcends the spicy register (pepper, clove) of the finish._x000D_
