Our oenologists' opinion
Fruity and light
A deep gold colour with hints of old gold, limpid and brilliant. The nose is open, greedy and consensual, with notes of roasted grain, milk toffee, nougat and honey. Greedy attack, sweetness, small envelope, caramel and vanilla character. The finish is fairly short and sweet, with notes of apricot jam, white chocolate and a hint of white pepper.

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.

WEST CORK
This whiskey is a tribute to Ger and Denis MacCarthy, founders of the West Cork distillery and former sailors on the trawlers that used to set sail from West Cork. This highly original bottle, with its distinctive design, was inspired by the glass fishing floats of that era. It contains a whiskey aged in first-fill Bourbon casks, then matured in Sherry Casks from Bodegas Baron. A sweet but spicy whiskey that will delight connoisseurs and collectors alike!
