"Unusual aroma for a wine-finished whisky: here we are getting distinct ye olde oake signs that are leaning towards the exotic fruitiness of old bourbon casks. Salivating and on the money malt-wise with the juicy chewiness appearing a lot fresher than the nose would have you believe. Busy, multi-layered with some lovely praline amid the soft grape. Beautiful, subtle malt. But the fruit element has been reduced considerably, as if the original Port pipes are being used a second or third time around." -Jim Murray, "Whisky Bible" 89 points

Balvenie Description

To create The Balvenie PortWood, rare 21 year old Balvenie which has been matured in traditional oak casks is transferred to a port cask, or pipe, which has held fine port wines. Here it is sampled every month to ensure that just the right amount of character is imparted by the port casks, enhancing and developing the single malt, whilst preserving its original characteristics.

Wine Enthusiast: 94 Points

A port cask finish gives this Scotch a copper penny hue. The aroma suggests baked apple, while the palate has a chewy, concentrated vanilla-oak profile, leading to walnut, leather and espresso. The rounded finish sings with sherry and spice. Adding water coaxes out baked apple sweetness and dials back the oak.
