Product description
For the first time in the Cask Exploration series, the maturation of the Port Charlotte SYC: 01 Single Malt Whisky took place predominantly in Syrah casks. The French producer, who shares Bruichladdich's philosophy and passion for terroir, has specialised in the production of organic and biodynamic wines. Soil and climate play a decisive role in the production process. Thanks to minimal intervention, the different regions and soils can develop their authentic character. This results in wines that - similar to the Islay Single Malts from Port Charlotte - offer a true expression of their terroir. The Syrah, a red wine with a strong and full body, has given the SYC:01 Heavily Peated intense flavours of red fruits and spicy nuances that wonderfully complement the characteristic aromatic peat smoke of Port Charlotte.
