GlenAllachie 9yo Douro Valley Wine Finish

Notes from the distillery:
Located in the heart of Portugal, the Douro Valley is one of the world’s oldest protected wine regions, established in 1756. With the country’s highest wine classification as a Denominacao de Origem Controlada (DOC), this historic region is a significant producer of robust, characterful red wines.
The barriques selected have imparted richness of both colour and flavour to our Speyside malt, offering decadent layers of dried stone fruits and delicate hints of warming spice.
Spirit matured in ex-Bourbon barrels, with a secondary maturation in Douro Valley barriques; non-chill filtered with no added colouring.

To craft The GlenAllachie Wine Series, the spirit was first expertly matured in American oak ex-Bourbon barrels. Subsequently, the whisky underwent additional maturation for over two years in wine barriques skilfully sourced by Master Distiller Billy Walker, imparting a distinctive twist onto the GlenAllachie spirit.

Factors such as the oak species, level of toasting, and coopering of the cask each leave a unique mark on the slumbering spirit. The oak itself was previously influenced by the grape variety and terroir of the winery from which we sourced these barriques; thus, the wood adds distinctive layers of complexity, depth and charm.
