Description
The Lochlea RED WINE CASK Single Estate Single Malt Scotch Whisky Release 2025 46% Vol. 0.7 l + GB is a limited and expressive bottling from the independent Lochlea Distillery in the Scottish Lowlands. The distillery is a genuine farm-to-bottle distillery that carries out all stages of production - from barley cultivation to distillation and bottling - directly on its own estate. This consistent single estate principle gives each whisky an unmistakable character and a deep connection to the land on which it is produced.
For the Red Wine Cask Release 2025, the whisky was first matured in classic oak casks and then finished in fine Grenache red wine casks. These expressive casks give the whisky an intense aroma with notes of ripe red fruits, dark cherries and subtle spices, while at the same time giving it a warm, reddish-golden color and an elegant, velvety texture. The Grenache casks provide additional depth, which blends harmoniously with the natural malt notes and delicate honey sweetness of the Lochlea house style.
Bottled at 46% by volume, non-chill-filtered and natural in color, this single malt is at its most authentic - powerful, balanced and full of character. The interplay of the red wine cask finish and regional barley makes it an impressive representative of modern Lowland whisky art. (automated translation)
Tasting notes:
Color: Bright copper red with a ruby shimmer.
Nose: Expressive with red berries, cherries, raisins and fine vanilla, accompanied by spicy oak.
Taste: Round and fruity with notes of wild berries, caramelized orange, honey, spices and subtle tannins from the Grenache barrels.
Finish: Long-lasting, warm and balanced with oak spice, sweet vanilla and a hint of dark chocolate.
The Lochlea Red Wine Cask Single Estate - Grenache Finish is ideal for pure enjoyment, but can develop its fruity and spicy nuances even further with a drop of water. In culinary terms, it harmonizes perfectly with braised lamb, saddle of venison in red wine jus or duck breast with cherry glaze. It is also a stylish accompaniment to hard cheeses such as Comté or Gruyère, dark chocolate with berry filling or desserts such as chocolate fondant and berry tart. An exceptional whisky that perfectly embodies the spirit of the Lochlea distillery with its balance of Grenache wine character, Lowland elegance and long-lasting finish. (automated translation)
