Springbank
Hazelburn 9 year old Barolo Finish 57.9%
6 years in American oak, finished for 3 years in ex-Springbank Barolo casks
Dist: 2007 Btl: 2016
Tasted: Nov 2016
The nose opens with the subtle winey red fruit and a touch of spice. Quite herbal in an almost refill sherry kind of way with hints of barley and vanilla. With time hints of salt, grilled nuts and tart lemon appears.
The palate is herbal and subtly winey. Being refilled Barolo casks seems to have removed the slight butyric character that often comes with Italian wine casks. Dense and malty with hints of salt, spice, vanilla and dark chocolate. Intensely mouth-watering finish with a rich, almost sherried finish.
Water emphasises the sweet barley on the nose with more of the lemon and honey and lessens the wine influence. It does the same on the palate and makes it a little fuller and oilier with more barley and malt. Still long with a touch of hyacinth and violet in the finish.
