Nose

Dry and less overtly malty than the usual Glen Moray; comes to life only when well warmed. Then slightly buttery and marshmallow-sweet.

Palate

Tangy fruit, unquestionably grapey, but fails to marry with the intense malt which offers some much needed sweetness.

Finish

Dry, vanilla, lacking depth, save some toasty cocoa notes. Short.

Comment

Hmmm. Not quite as well structured as I might have wished. I prefer the old Glen Moray to this, which has its moments, but tends to be a little awkward.
