Glenmorangie Nectar D'or Tasting note

By Miguel at 2011 Feb,17 in Tasting , Glenmorangie

The Bordeaux vineyards of south western France lend their grand heritage to Nectar D'or through Glenmorangie's use of Sauternes wine barriques to 'finish' The Original single malt whisky. Infused with the signature honey, citrus and spice aroma of the Sauternes dessert wine that lingers in the wooden casks, the result is a whisky of exquisite sophistication and complexity. The resultant elixir takes on the pale, lemony, gold transparency and honeyed taste that inspired it's name.

This dram has a white-like color.

Nose (84): inexistent. delicate, floral, a little fruity, pears, citrus. First nosing data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Palate (96): . sweet, floral, pears, sweet plums, honey, vanilla, wood. Bouquet data is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

Finish (84): no finish. wood, honey. Finish length is innacurate as the previous tasting sheet lacked of this field.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Glenmorangie Nectar D'or with 88 points over 100.
