The Bielle 2014 Vieux Agricole Marie Galante is a 700ml bottle of rum with an impressive alcohol content of 56.9%. This rum is a brut de fût, meaning it is non-reduced and non-filtered, and it proudly represents the esteemed line of bruts de fûts from the family-owned Bielle distillery in Marie-Galante, Guadeloupe.
Distilled in 2014 using a Savalle column still, this exquisite rum has undergone a meticulous 7-year aging process in both bourbon barrels and barriques of sweet white wines. This careful aging has crafted a rum that is both powerful and fresh, with a bouquet that gracefully evolves with aeration.
Upon first encounter, the rum presents itself akin to a crisp white wine with delicate hints of white flowers. As it breathes, a fruit basket's richness unfolds, featuring notes of mirabelle plums, poached pears, and greengages. These fruit notes grow more prominent and full-bodied, exhibiting a sticky, juicy texture.
The initial robust power of the rum gradually gives way to the fruit basket, unveiling a fresh and earthy sugarcane note, accompanied by hints of straw and bark. The oak imparts a peppery note reminiscent of fresh sugarcane juice.
To sum up, the Bielle 2014 Vieux Agricole Marie Galante is a complex and well-rounded rum that offers a unique opportunity to taste the preserved terroir of Marie-Galante. Its aging process in both bourbon barrels and sweet white wine barriques bestows it with a distinctive and well-balanced flavor profile.

For the best experience, it is recommended to rest the rum instead of adding water, as adding water can throw off its balance. This allows the full complexity of flavors to shine through.
The aroma features citrus, vanilla, peppery spice, sugarcane, and cocoa, while the taste offers a complex blend of peppery spice, caramel sweetness, and dried fruit flavors with hints of vanilla, marmalade, and orange peel.
The finish is long and lingering, with peppery spice, orange and citrus notes, chocolate, dried fruit, allspice, and a hint of warmth.
