Balblair
15 year old 46%
Bourbon/ First Fill Spanish oak finish.
Tasted: Oct 2019
The nose opens with obvious but luscious sherried dried fruit. with hints of dark syrup, poached pear, apricot, tart raisinated fruit, violets, minerals, dark chocolate, ginger and orange marmalade. With time a touch of American oak lightens along with gooseberry and lime.
The palate opens along the same lines with the sherried dried fruit and hints of slightly gritty/ chocolaty tannins, walnut shell, barley, creamy American oak. Pleasantly balanced and long with the American oak forcing it’s way to the fore, bringing vanilla, cream and toffee, although the slightly gritty and spicy tannins counter. It certainly shows more sherry character than the old 2000 vintage.
