Part of the Milk & Honey Distillery's Elements Range, this single malt was matured in ex-Bourbon before finishing in ex-Red Wine Casks (STR Casks).
Producer Description: "Ex-red wine casks that were sourced from Israel's finest wineries were picked for this part of the Elements trilogy. The Mediterranean’s climate, variety of soil types, hot sunny days and cool nights bring a spicy and unique flavor to Israeli wine – and in turn, our casks. The wine casks used in the Elements Red Wine are a celebration of local terroir, curating a floral single malt with notes of raisins."
Greywacke Pinot Noir
$68.99
The review: "Fresh and aromatic, with green matcha tea, sea salt, lavender and melon notes to complement the pure macerated raspberry and juicy cherry fruit and generous velvety tannins. Gains complexity and nuance on the long finish. Drink now through 2027." Greywacke is the Marlborough label of Kevin Judd, and the fulfillment of a long held dream. Kevin was head winemaker at Cloudy Bay for many years and responsible for putting Cloudy Bay on the world wine map. It is so named in recognition of the high prevalence of rounded greywacke river stones found in the soils of the vineyard. Well made, well priced!
