Tasting Highlights

Barrel No. A2

Number of bottles: 200

100% Ugni Blanc grapes

Cask strength: 50.9%

Bottled in 2024.

Aged in oak casks for 31 years.

Initial aging in new French oak barrels, then transferred to wide-grained “red” French Limousin Oak. Aged in a dry cellar.

The older Limousin barrels are “red barrels.” “When a barrel is called “Red”, a reference to the reddish color of aged wood, it has aged before other eaux-de-vie during at least 2 years up to 8 years, reaching the perfect stage of maturation for both the wood and the spirit.”

Powerful and woody with aromas of prunes and vanilla on the nose, followed by a fresh, lemony finish. The palate is round and powerful, with hints of licorice and prunes. The mid-palate is woody with flavors of ripe banana and forest floor. The finish lingers long in the mouth.
