Port Charlotte 2013 PMC:01

9 Year Old Pomerol Wine Cask Finish
 
Port Charlotte PMC:01 is the sixth release in Islay distillery Bruichladdich's Cask Exploration series. The 2013 vintage was made from Scottish Concerto barley peated to 40ppm which was distilled and then popped into first-fill bourbon barrels for 4 years. In 2017, spirit was re-casked into Pomerol wine casks from Bordeaux’s Right Bank. It's the first time that Port Charlotte spirit has matured in Pomerol cask and it brings all kinds of sweet and tart dark berries and leather notes to the single malt Scotch whisky.
 
Nose: Classic Islay salty maritime notes meet rich peat smoke, red fruits, rose, honey, aged leather, and clove.
Palate: Conference Pears, blackberries, stewed plums, vanilla, melon, and ginger, with a touch of marzipan.
Finish: Smoke and sea linger with more cooked black fruit.
