- Description
- Michel Couvreur's 2015 French single malt spent nine years in Jura vin Jaune casks, absorbing the dry white wine's distinctive mineral and oxidative character. Expect vibrant stone fruit, vinous complexity, and roasted nuts layered beneath the core malt, with the wine cask adding unusual depth. A compelling choice for those exploring French whisky and wine cask maturation beyond traditional sherry.
