Finished in Premier Grand Cru Sauternes Casks. Limited Edition. 70cl. 46%. In wooden presentation box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn increasingly hard to find 20-year-old Glenmorangie, distilled in 1981 and bottled in 2002 at 46% ABV.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis limited-edition release was matured for around 18 years before being given an extended two-year finish in Premier Grand Cru Sauternes casks from Château d’Yquem, the celebrated Bordeaux estate responsible for one of the world’s most prestigious sweet wines. The lengthy finishing period brought additional richness and honeyed sweetness to Glenmorangie’s naturally elegant and fruity Highland character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGlenmorangie was an early pioneer of additional cask maturation, experimenting with wine and fortified-wine casks long before such finishes became commonplace across the Scotch whisky industry. The Sauternes Wood Finish is a particularly interesting example from this period, combining significant age with an unusually long finishing period and casks sourced from one of the most renowned wine estates in the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReleased in 2002, this bottling predates Glenmorangie’s better-known Nectar d’Or, which subsequently established Sauternes finishing as a regular part of the distillery’s range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e","brand":"Whisky-Online Auctions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58691658973565,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Glenmorangie 1981-2002 - 20 Year Old - Sauternes Wood Finish-Lot Id:0626-447","offer_id":58691659071869,"sku":"0626-447","price":410.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/0036\/4446\/files\/0626-447-1_19c6d288-54d9-4c50-b37d-f2973c261102.jpg?v=1789589921","url":"https:\/\/whisky-onlineauctions.com\/products\/glenmorangie-1981-2002-20-year-old-sauternes-wood-finish-lot-id-0626-447","provider":"Whisky-Online Auctions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
