Woodford Reserve Masters Collection Sonoma-Cutrer Finish

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 43%

Score: 90 Points

This bourbon was finished in Chardonnay wine casks from the Sonoma-Cutrer Winery in California, and the nose is dry and fruity with red apples, butterscotch, honey, and a very light note of cinnamon. The taste starts off dry and fruity before the natural bourbon notes kick in with cinnamon and nutmeg, along with a touch of nuttiness. The finish is long with mild spices, red grapes, and a hint of red apples.
