Heriose Pineau des Charantes Cask (Maison Boinaud), 3 YO, 43%

Initially spent two and a half years in ex-bourbon casks, then received a full year’s finish in ex-Pineau des Charantes cask.

The Heriose Pineau des Charantes Cask (Maison Boinaud) goes on sale in Norway next week at NOK 900 (18760201).

Nose: Youthful maltiness with fresh apples and soft caramel hints.

Taste: Medium-bodied, surprisingly rich and fruity, with a second wave bringing in fruity and oaky spices.

Finish: Short, with lingering notes of apple juice and overripe apples.

Comment: Charming in its simplicity.

Score 80/100
