La Maison du Whisky & Velier Through the Grapevine Fanny Fougerat 1994 SC 750ml

This cask comes from Ugni Blanc vines cultivated in Borderies, from the 1994 harvest. Distilled off the lees, Fanny did slightly reduce the brandy with water over the course of the twenty plus years of aging. The nose is full of honey, walnuts, wildflowers, toffee, and oak spice. On the palate, it's viscous and oozing with brown butter, green apple, cocoa, tangerine, and apricot. The finish moves into botanical territory. Over steeped tea, orange oils, meadowsweet, leather, and more nuttiness as well lingers on the end for some time. Bottled at 52.8% abv.
