A release of just 350 limited bottles. NOSE A mellow nose with some initial prickle.

PALATE A richly winey, apple fruity and mouth-watering start delights the palate, backed by a long spicy intensity with a delicious black pepper note that really persists. FINISH Long, sweet and deep-flavoured, with a light peppery spiciness. With water, still sweet and softer, with the spicy heat joined by a suggestion of mint chocolate in the lingering aftertaste.

Though it has never been absolutely proven, Chateau Asone is rumoured to be the 4th century home of a Roman villa belonging to the classical poet Ausonius - and indeed, part of the estate does contain archaeological remains of a Roman villa. Needless to say, it’s a local estate of great pedigree and despite its incredibly lengthy history, it has only changed familial hands three times, culminating in the 17th century with the Dubois-Challon-Vauthier family, in whose descendents hands it remains today. Widely regarded among Bordeaux winemakers to be home to some of the best terroir in the region and that terroir, along with the skilled hand of Alain Vauthier, have made it one of the best producers of Bordeaux wine in the world. Renowned for its unique flavour and rich, full-bodied minerality, the 2016 has been lauded for its “regal” yet “stunning and ethereal” character, and widely regarded as one of THE wines of this year’s vintage.

The Macallan distillery, located in the Scottish Highlands, has a rich history dating back to 1824. Farmers in the area had been making whisky on their Speyside farms for centuries, using their surplus barley during the quieter winter months. The distillery was founded by Alexander Reid, a barley farmer and school teacher. The original name of the area was “Maghellan”, taken from the Gaelic word “magh”, meaning fertile ground and “Ellan”, from the Monk St.Fillan - who held a close association with the church that stood in the grounds of The Macallan Estate until 1400. Today, the Macallan distillery is renowned for its commitment to craftsmanship and quality. The traditional stone buildings, adorned with copper pot stills and wooden fermentation vessels, exude an air of timeless elegance. Each step in the whiskey-making process is meticulously executed, from the selection of the finest barley to the patient maturation in handcrafted Spanish oak casks. The Macallan is dedicated to using only the finest quality oak casks, sourced from the forests of northern Spain, which impart unique flavors and characteristics to the whiskey. The rich, natural colour and complex flavors of dried fruits, spices and oak are a testament to the mastery of Macallan's cask selection process. The Macallan distillery also boasts an impressive collection of aged whiskies, some dating back several decades. The Macallan Sherry Oak 25 Years Old is an exquisite expression within Macallan's esteemed Sherry Oak range. This collection highlights a selection of single malt whiskies that undergo an exclusive maturation process in carefully chosen sherry seasoned oak casks sourced from Jerez. The result is a meticulously crafted whiskey with a captivating flavour profile, characterized by hints of citrus, dried fruits and a subtle essence of wood smoke. After a quarter-century of maturation, this exceptional whisky gains an unparalleled depth and intensity, making it a truly remarkable and cherished single malt.

A Speyside single malt Scotch whisky as intriguing and extraordinary as Benriach could not have come to be without a unique whisky making heritage, dating from 1898, when founder John Duff built his distillery. Ruggedly beautiful, Benriach stands on the site of the old Riach farm in north Speyside, drawing water from a mineral-rich aquifer, deep beneath the distillery. Thanks to a long-standing tradition of distilling three styles of whisky; classic unpeated, Highland peated and triple distilled, together with an eclectic selection of casks from around the world, their whisky makers are able to explore the full flavour possibilities of single malt, creating some of the richest, most multi-layered whiskies in Speyside. Drawing upon decades of experience, Master Blender Rachel Barrie has skilfully combined some of our rarest malt to create Benriach The Forty. Fine bourbon casks made from American oak have gradually developed exquisite notes of honeyed pomelo and ripe stone fruits. This intricate character is interwoven with dark notes of chocolate, rich plum, and smooth walnut from port casks sourced from the Douro Valley in Portugal. The result is the ultimate expression of our signature, luscious, fruit-laden style. The colour is a deep bronze. The nose richly fruity, with the exquisite scent of sweet orange, plum, and honey pomelo laced with dark chocolate coated berries layered on smooth walnut and cherry liqueur. On the palate flavours of luscious orchard fruits, silky morello cherry, soft nectarine, stewed red apple, and white peach, lingering into the seductive velvety walnut and kumquat finish.
