Deep crimson red with purple highlights. Aromas of red fruits, toffee, pecan, and vanilla. Raspberry, Turkish delight, nougat, roasted nut notes with attractive oak and soft velvety tannins. Generous red fruit palate, medium in weight, complex in flavours with a pleasing, lingering smooth finish.

A traditionally wine oak matured Grenache that has been enhanced by partial maturation in oak barrels that previously held aged Scotch Whisky. This unique, double barrel process instils palate richness and complexity. A Grenache that has been made to deliver a richer, deeper, and smoother palate.

Parcels of Grenache were fermented in small oak stave Vats. Tight control over pump over frequency and duration as well as temperature control (between 20C and 30C) was maintained throughout the fermentation. The various parcels of fruit were pressed off after 8-20 days of fermentation on skins The resultant wine was first matured for 6 months in traditional wine oak comprising older French and American oak. Following this initial maturation, and ahead of final blending, select parcels were finished in oak barrels that previously held aged Scotch Whisky.

Double Barrel is finished in aged whisky barrels for a richer, deeper, and smoother taste.
