Balvenie French Oak whiskey is a vibrant single malt finished in barrels that previously contained wine from the French Charentes vineyards. Pineau des Charentes is a fortified wine, made from unfermented grape juice, to which a Cognac eau-de-vie is added, then left to age. Pineau is also found as an artisanal product in the neighboring departments of Deux-Sèvres and Vendée. Lorne Cousin, the brand's U.S. ambassador, suggested Cellar Master David C. Stewart explore these barrels after a trip to the region with his family, where he fondly remembered drinking the aperitif. This is the first finish in the Balvenie range to explore French oak. Pineau is similar to cognac in terms of production and flavor, allowing us to capitalize on the rise of this flavor profile and its premium credentials. The nose is beautifully balanced. Light floral notes of lotus flowers and geranium combine with notes of fresh meadow grass and peeled apple skin. On the palate, the energizing zest of lemon peel and grapefruit meets the subtle and delicate sweetness of candied fruits and the spices of ginger root. The finish is refreshing and concise.
