Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and well-rounded
For the aroma, it is the crunchy barley that emerges first, then fruity aromas from the distillation (pear syrup, papaya ...). The influence of the sea is also felt, because of aging exclusively on Islay, through extraordinary citrus notes. In the mouth, the texture is almost syrupy, all in a beautiful harmony with a long, silky finish with notes of oak.

Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.
