About this wine
THE BALVENIE 16 Year Old French Oak Cask 47.6% ABV Single Malt Whisky
The Balvenie 16 Year Old French Oak Cask Single Malt Whisky is a vibrant and intriguing addition to the distillery’s range, matured primarily in American oak before being finished in rare French oak casks that previously held Pineau des Charentes, a fortified wine from the Cognac region. This finishing imparts a lively, floral nose with notes of lotus, geranium, fresh meadow grass, and apple skin, while the palate delivers an energising burst of citrus—lemon rind and grapefruit—balanced by sweet glazed fruits, root ginger, and classic Balvenie honey. The mouthfeel is light and slightly effervescent, with flavours evolving from honey and maple syrup to fleshy fruits like apples, pears, and apricots, all underscored by a subtle oak-driven spice. The finish is refreshingly concise, with lingering marzipan, vanilla icing, and a gentle warmth of ginger and honey, making this non-chill filtered, 47.6% ABV expression a harmonious and nuanced whisky that showcases both the skill of Balvenie’s blending and the unique influence of French oak maturation.
