The Deanston 2002 Pinot Noir Finish is a limited-edition single malt whisky hailing from the renowned Deanston distillery in the Highlands. This exceptional whisky showcases a harmonious blend of Deanston's soft, honeyed malt and the intriguing influence of Pinot Noir casks. Initially distilled and filled into whisky re-fill casks in December 2002, the spirit was transferred into Pinot Noir casks in June 2018, making it a 17-year-old expression bottled at a robust cask strength of 50% ABV. Notably, this whisky is bottled without chill-filtration or added coloring, preserving its authentic character. The nose of this Deanston expression is light and crisp, revealing notes of orchard fruits, creamy vanilla, and a touch of oak. As you delve deeper, the palate unfolds with a dry, acidic quality, enhanced by a hint of maltiness and the rich tannins imparted by the Pinot Noir casks. The finish is long-lasting, marked by a delightful acidity and a lingering malty creaminess. Aromas of dried fruit, apples, cinnamon, honey, and oak are prominent, while the palate captivates with green grapes, orchard fruits, creamy vanilla, and tannins. The finish continues with dried fruit, cinnamon, honey, and oak, rounded off by a subtle apple note. This whisky provides a unique and intriguing exploration of Deanston's signature honeyed malt combined with the bold influence of red wine casks.
