2017 Berry Bros. & Rudd Myken, Cask No. 15, Whisky, Norway (61.4%)

Description

The first ever independent bottling from this tiny distillery is of their lightly peated spirit at 8ppm. The nose is initially very gentle and takes a little time to open up, but those with patience are rewarded with light green fruit, bonfire ash and zesty lime. The palate is lusciously peated, medicinal and coastal with notes of wild garlic and sooty chimneys. The peat pops out even more on the long ashy finish, as one contemplates whether this is perhaps the Norwegian cousin of Longrow or Talisker, and whether the west coast of Norway will soon rival the west coast of Scotland.

Cellar Plan members enjoy a 10% saving on this spirit. Reduction will be applied at checkout.

Poderi Aldo Conterno

Aldo Conterno, a legend in his own lifetime, has forged a reputation as one of Barolo's very finest producers. Initially he worked alongside his brother Giovanni Conterno before he set up on his own in 1969. Today he is ably assisted by his 3 sons; Stefano, Franco and Giacomo. Conterno`s vineyards are located in the hills of Bussai in the Monteforte district of Barolo. He produces a wide range of wines, stretching from excellent Dolcettos and Barberas through to Chardonnay-based whites and peerless Barolos. He is most renowned for his single vineyard Barolos which are amongst the finest expressions of Nebbiolo to be found anywhere in the world.
