The Glenrothes 25YO
(86pts)
The Soleo Collection from Glenrothes takes its name from the process of sun-drying grapes for sherry making in Jerez, so you're in for a sherried treat here. The range also eschews the vintages as seen on previous Glenrothes bottlings, instead featuring age statements on most of them. This one is a 25 year old expression, and features a high proportion of first fill sherry seasoned oak casks at its core. Yummers.
Tasting Note
Nose: Stewed plums and apples, polished oak furniture, cigar box leading to a slight hint of soft smoke.
Palate: Rounded malty notes peer out from behind vibrant cooked berry and mulled wine sweetness. Oak spices arrive on the mid-palate, but mellow swiftly.
Finish: Caramelised dates, mango and old leather.
