- Description
- Moon Harbour's second Dock 1 expression stays true to Bordeaux terroir—barley grown locally and matured in Sauternes barrels before finishing in freshly emptied Château La Louvière barrels, both storied Bordeaux houses. The Sauternes and wine cask finishes layer honey, stone fruit, and aged oak onto the base spirit, creating a decidedly wine-forward profile. This suits wine enthusiasts exploring whisky or drinkers seeking pronounced sweet wine influences.
