Midleton Distillery 'Green Spot' Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey Finished in Chateau Montelena Zinfandel Casks County Cork

750ml bottle

40% abv

Nose - Crisp oak with soft, sweet vanilla, white chocolate, and marshmallow, balanced with signature Green Spot red apples and ripe pears, along with pomegranate, cranberries, and maraschino cherries, the contribution of the wine cask.

Taste - Sweet mouth coating takes on a dry note thanks to the wine cask. Pot still spices subside with zesty citrus leading to ripe orchard fruit and red berries. A touch of marzipan and toasted oak add to the complexity.

Green Spot Chateau Montelena has been finished for 12 months in French oak Zinfandel from the prestigious Chateau Montelena in Napa Valley, California. Zinfandel casks are adding an exciting new dimension to this Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey already renowned for its excellent quality.

This rare cask finish contributes pomegranate, cranberry, and maraschino cherry on the nose, a dry note to the silky mouthfeel and the finish combines classic long pot still spice flavours with a delicate wine influence, all in perfect harmony.

Green Spot Montelena has initially been matured in traditional sherry and bourbon casks, then finished for 12 months in French oak Zinfandel wine casks from the prestigious Chateau Montelena in Napa Valley, California.
