Glen Elgin
Gordon & Macphail Connoisseurs Choice Glen Elgin 1998 (16 year old) 46%
Refill Sherry
Dist: 1998 Btl: 2014
Re-Tasted: Feb 2018
The nose is quite dense with plenty of dusty oak and aromatic barley. The sherry is very subtle and adds a smidge of dried fruit. Late notes of honey, toffee and mature, baked apple.
The palate opens with the creamy vanilla and barley. Some gentle, mature dried fruit arrives along with a touch of spice. The oak becomes quite nutty and sawdusty on the middle, with a touch of white chocolate and minerals. Long, juicy and quite citric with lingering lemon, apricot and dried fruit.
Finish:. OMG! What a finish! Mouth-coating mature oak and honey with some grippy coffee’d tannin and green fruit. Dries a little towards the end but the honey balances and lingers.
Conclusion: Breathtakingly complex!
