Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery highlights and a touch of mahogany.
Nose
Opulent nose of red-berry compote with ripe plum and blackberry, brightened by raspberry. Port-cask influence yields syrupy fig and raisin sweetness, layered with dark chocolate, vanilla and polished oak. Subtle spice—nutmeg and clove—threads through, giving a velvety, luxurious aroma.
Palate
Silky and mouth-filling, this Benrinnes delivers a velvet palate with red-fruit sweetness—ripe plums, cherries and raspberries—threaded by rich port finish. Notes of fig, raisin and dark chocolate mingle with spice and gentle oak. The finish is long and refined, with soft tannins and a warm, ruby-fruit glow.
Finish
Long, velvety finish dominated by port-tinged sweetness—ripe cherry and plum evolving into dried fruits, with subtle spice and a touch of cocoa. Polished oak weaves through the tail, leaving a warm, elegant fade that persists.
