Tasting Notes

Billy Abbott, The Whisky Exchange
- Nose
  
  Sultanas, crystallised sugar and chocolate cake – Black Forest Gâteau and Mr Kipling’s Country Slices. Almond paste and Florentines develop alongside juicy fresh cherries and slightly sour apple sauce.
- Palate
  
  Richly textured and intense. Singed notes lead: burnt autumn leaves and old coal stoves. Stewed orchard fruit follows, studded with sultanas and dried cherries. Dark chocolate cake lingers at the back.
- Finish
  
  Spice lingers, with dark chocolate, damp bark and a touch of dried apple.

One of the most famous wines made in Italy, Amarone della Valpolicella comes from the Veneto region. This luscious, full-bodied and fruit forward red wine is made using a traditional method called appassimento, which involves partly drying the grapes before fermentation to concentrate the sugars and amplify the flavour.

This cask comes from an award-winning producer that has received glowing reviews from wine critic Jancis Robinson, and is among the best in the region.

Founded in 1988, Signatory has spent almost 40 years as one of Scotland’s most respected independent bottlers. Led by Andrew Symington, who learned his trade selecting casks for the Prestonfield Hotel in Edinburgh, the company is well known for having not only excellent, well-aged stocks of whisky but also for experimenting with casks and cask finishing. Add to that its regular release schedule, and you have an indie bottler that reliably offers whiskies to suit every palate.
