Vintage Assessments Release Highlight A Best Buy |
10-year-old exhibits a nose of rich Christmas cake, featuring most notably Sherry, raisins, nuts and spices. A background hint of smoke is also present. The palate is defined by quite dry Sherry, with a developing and gradually sweetening full body. The finish is long, nutty, and comparatively dry. Less overtly Sherried than some older expressions of Glenfarclas, the 10-year-old nonetheless gives its Macallan rival a real run for its money. Score: 3.5 (out of 5) (Gavin D. Smith & Tom Cannavan, www.whisky-pages.com) |
