Red 11 Year Old Pinot Noir Cask - Limited Edition

Features

Description

Longrow Red 11 Year Old Pinot Noir is a limited-edition cask-strength single malt Scotch whisky from legendary Springbank Distillery in Campbeltown, Scotland. This release is part of the acclaimed Longrow Red series a line of heavily peated whiskies that are finished in different red wine casks to bring complexity, balance and depth to the smoky spirit.

Matured first in ex-bourbon barrels and then finished for three years in refill Pinot Noir wine barriques (sourced from Central Otago, New Zealand), this expression delivers a beautiful interplay between rich red fruit sweetness and coastal peat smoke. Bottled at cask strength and non-chill-filtered, it offers character and intensity that whisky lovers savour.

Tasting Notes: Appearance: Warm copper-gold with a full, rich hue. Nose: Red apples, rhubarb crumble, cherries and liquorice with hints of maraschino and subtle smoky earthiness. Palate: Soft yet layered juicy red berries, raspberry jam and cranberry sauce meet gentle peat smoke, tobacco leaf and burnt embers, with a touch of wine-inspired sweetness.

Finish: Creamy, smoky and nutty with lingering dried fruit and warm peat.
