Given that Pinot Noir grapes are good enough to make Champagne, that most regal of sparkling wines, we hoped Pinot Noir casks might

be worthy of creating a finish for our soft and honeyed malt. And you know what? They most definitely are. Notes of vanilla, citrus and

sweet white wine are delivered with a zing so zesty, you can practically hear them.

Aroma: Light and crisp, orchard fruits followed by creamy vanilla and oak, giving way to a subtle hint of green grape.

Taste: Dry, acidic, slight maltiness with arich hit of tannin.

Finish: Long acidity, giving way to amalty creaminess.
