Serve
It has notes of black cherries and caramel backed by the fruit and tannic structure from those red wine casks. It can be enjoyed neat, or on the rocks - it’s also rather delicious in a Manhattan.
Process
The barrels are from Australian vineyards producing reds like Shiraz, Cabernet and Pinot Noir. They’re often still wet from wine when re-filled with lower alcohol proof - in order to draw out the lip-smacking red wine fruit characters and tannins.
People
Founded by Melburnian David Vitale, whose passion for all things food and flavour is partly from having grown up in a big Italian family. Under the guidance of whisky godfather Bill Lark, he helped kickstart the Australian single malt movement.
Place
Made in Melbourne where the team say ‘elemental maturation’ happens. The wildly unpredictable (four seasons in a day) and fluctuating climate enables the whisky to draw out fruity flavours and oaky character from the barrels over a 3 year period.
