About this bottle
Belle Meade Bourbon Mourvèdre Cask Finish marks the debut release in a four-part series from Nelson's Green Brier Distillery called the Craftsman Cask Collection. Each entry in the series undergoes 10 years of aging before a finishing period in a distinct cask type. This particular expression spent 148 days maturing in a single mourvèdre red wine cask sourced from Withers Winery in California's Sierra Foothills. Just 288 bottles were produced for this release, bottled at 117 proof.

A potpourri of spices on the nose, very rich. Some fruit and dank woodiness from the barrel are also present. It's unique on the palate, offering a rush of fruit and spice. The warmth is lasting. There's a pleasant sweetness. 9/6/20
Sweet. Light. A cherry finish.
Remarkably intricate!
