Specs single barrel pick, barrel #28368. Aged 31 months in barrel, new American oak and finished in 1st use California Pinot noir cask, then transferred to used Kentucky bourbon barrel. Ethanol is noticeable on the nose, but I detect sweet chocolate notes. Chocolate rye bread on the taste with a lingering rye spice finish. Definitely Balcones and a unique rye whiskey. Rich and thick. I don't detect much of the Pinot influence. Makes for a good dessert sip.
