- Description
- This 10-year-old Port Charlotte finished in Syrah wine casks marries Islay peat with wine-driven fruit at 54.4% abv. The Syrah finish introduces dark berry, spice, and tannin structure that sit alongside the whisky's characteristic maritime smoke and briny character. The interplay between smoke and wine creates a fuller mouthfeel than Port Charlotte's standard expressions. A sophisticated option for those seeking peat with vinous depth.
