- Description
- Edradour's 2010 distillate spent 15 years in Portuguese fortified wine hogsheads from Quinta de São Francisco, absorbing rich, unctuous character from the Estremadura wine casks. At 57.7% ABV, the spirit shows robust integration of orchard fruit, spice, and wine-driven sweetness, with a textured mouthfeel that balances wood influence and distillery character. The Highland distillery's light, floral baseline contrasts beautifully with the wine cask's darker, more complex notes. A compelling choice for those exploring how fortified wine finishes transform lighter Scottish spirits.
