TASTING NOTES - WILSON & MORGAN DAILUAINE 2007 30TH ANNIVERSARY

Nose

quite open and rich, a true jump into the PX specificities: very intense sultanas, cherries, balanced by a drop of orange and sweet leather. Semi-sweet chocolate ganache with cherries. The typical oxidative note of the distillery is present but not invasive. Alcohol seems very well integrated. Sweetness is also under control.

Palate

Juicy and relatively intense. Again the PX pushes the tastes palette into very specific character with wet sultanas, orange, ripe cherries. A sweet array of spices, turning into slightly dry and balsamic towards the end. Coherently with the nose, alcohol is pretty silent.

Finish

Changing, medium-long and more on the dry side, with hints of white pepper and the return of the oxidative character, still balanced.

W&M Dailuaine 2007 30th Anniversary is a good product, where the oxidative character of the distillery can be found in a multi-dimensional tastes and aromas palette, which is not over-influenced by the PX finish, rather widened. An interesting exercise.
