This is the 2014 edition of the Woodford Reserve Masters Collection, and is normally-matured Woodford Reserve Bourbon finished in Pinot Noir casks from California’s Sonoma-Cutrer Winery.

The taste is dry and fruity with dark stewed fruits, dark chocolate, red grapes, and a slight hint of bitter lemon along with touches of oak. The finish is dry and dark with stewed fruits, berry cobbler, and a touch of molasses. (December, 2014)
