Description
GlenAllachie 10 Year Old Grattamacco Wine Cask Finish 70cl, 48% is a Speyside single malt from GlenAllachie Distillery, released as a distinctive wine-cask finished expression.
This release was first matured in bourbon barrels before being finished in Grattamacco wine barriques sourced from Tuscany’s Bolgheri area. The wine cask influence adds juicy blackcurrant, sweet tannins and red-fruit richness, while GlenAllachie’s Speyside character brings honey, orchard fruit, spice and rounded malt sweetness.
At 48%, this bottle offers a strong but approachable profile. It is richer and more wine-led than a classic bourbon cask whisky, but not as heavy as the cask-strength batches. The result is a stylish GlenAllachie with fruit, spice, oak structure and clear collector appeal.
