Additional Information

Aroma:
The nose is wonderful with a magical aroma of candied lime, cinnamon, melon, peach and freesias.
Ageing:
Old 300 litre oak barrels for 72 years and in Vats for 12 years. It is currently in 30ltr glass bonbons sealed with wax. Kept in very damp cellars
Distillation:
In old 5hl pot stills at around 70%. These stills are about the smallest available which normally makes very fine spirit. This was almost certainly distilled on its Lees
Flavour:
This has an oaky and nut complexity on initial taste with powerful tones. The complexity shows with dried orange and roasted chestnuts but the tail comes clean with grapefruit
Grape Variety:
Ugni Blanc
Reduction & Strength:
We do not believe that this has been reduced
Viticulture:
The area is slightly hilly and with chalky substrate allowing the vine roots to penetrate for a great distance. Some vines can be as old as a hundred years
