The GlenAllachie 10 Years Old Grattamacco Wine Cask Finish is an exceptional limited edition from GlenAllachie that combines the craftsmanship of Speyside whisky production with the elegant character of Italian red wines. This bottling first matured in selected American oak casks and then underwent an elaborate finish in ex-Grattamacco wine casks from Tuscany - one of the most renowned vineyards in the Bolgheri region.

With an alcohol content of 48% vol., natural colour and no chill filtration, this single malt Scotch whisky with wine cask maturation stands for depth, elegance and aromatic diversity. The red wine casks from Grattamacco - known for powerful and complex Bordeaux cuvées - lend the whisky notes of dark berries, spices and a fine tannin structure. The stylish gift box emphasises the premium character of this special bottling.

This edition is aimed at discerning connoisseurs and collectors who appreciate the interplay between the Scottish art of distillation and Italian wine cask maturation.
