Calusari, Pinot Noir, Viile Timisului, Romania, 2025 (Case) Isle of Raasay Distillery The 16 year old hasGorgeous flavours, almost syrupy in its concentration. Dark, rich and potent, with layers of black cherry, raspberry and cinnamon. Deep, with pretty fruit cake and spicy aromatics. A lovely long and lingering finish.
