The GlenAllachie Wine Series 2023 presents the 10-year-old Grattamacco Wine Finish single malt whisky, a true testament to the art of whisky craftsmanship. This exquisite spirit begins its journey in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels, developing a smooth, vanilla-rich foundation. Under the guidance of Master Distiller Billy Walker, the whisky undergoes a secondary maturation in select Italian Grattamacco wine barriques, sourced from the renowned Grattamacco winery located in Tuscany's Bolgheri area.
Known for producing elegant wines, the Grattamacco Estate lends its signature style to this whisky, resulting in a rich palate filled with juicy blackcurrant and sweet tannins. The marriage of the fruit-forward Speyside spirit with the Italian barriques creates a harmonious integration, embodying the complexity of the red wine that once graced each cask.
Bottled at 48% ABV, this whisky is free from chill filtration, allowing the full flavors to shine. The nose offers waves of dark chocolate, butterscotch, heather honey, blackcurrant, caramelised brown sugar, and cinnamon spice. The palate bursts with ripe red berries, grapefruit, toasted honeycomb, butterscotch, sugared fruit, and black truffle.
This limited edition release is initially matured in American oak bourbon barrels, followed by an additional ageing in Grattamacco wine casks, handpicked by Master Distiller Billy Walker. With a total maturation period of 11 years, this whisky is a true masterpiece of wood maturation and a must-try for any whisky connoisseur.
