The Balvenie The Second Red Rose 21 Year Old
Description
A 21-year-old single malt from the Balvenie Stories range, inspired by the legend of Margaret Douglas, widow of the Eighth Earl of Douglas, who lived at Balvenie Castle and paid rent to King James II every year in the form of a single red rose. Finished in Australian Shiraz casks, Second Red Rose offers aromas of ripe fruits, earthy tobacco, fresh mango and oak spice on the nose, complemented by notes of blackberry, peach, cracked black pepper and oak throughout the palate.
Tasting Note
Nose: Intense ripe fruits combined with robust earthy tones, reveal the mouth-watering fragrance from fresh mango and subtle oak.
Palate: An initial burst of blackberry and ripe peach sweetness, conceal flavours of vibrant oak and cracked black pepper leaving a gentle woody spice.
Finish: Lingering oakiness.
