- Description
- Bottled in 2001 after 32 years in sherry cask, this 1969 Glen Grant from Berry Bros & Rudd is a deep, dark expression showcasing mature sherried Speyside at its richest. The dark sherry influence dominates the nose and palate with dried fruit, spice, leather, and chocolate notes; the colour alone indicates decades of wood extraction. At 55.6% ABV, the texture is generous and warming, with a long, complex finish. This is for serious collectors and those seeking the ultimate expression of vintage sherried Glen Grant.
