Knappogue Castle 12 year old Marchesi di Barolo Wine Cask-Finished

Baked plum desserts sweet cherry star anise and dark vanilla on the nose with an enticing freshly toasted spiciness. Caramel plum pomegranate and rawhide shoelaces shift into a concentrated fruitiness as allspice and pepper well up yielding a sweet core of graham crackers marshmallows and creamy vanilla with hints of chocolate. Bruised fruit and throbbing spices characterize the finish on this laudable example of wine finishing. (1020 bottles)
