For the first time in the Cask Exploration series, the Port Charlotte SYC: 01 was matured mainly in Syrah barrels. The French producer shares our philosophy and passion for the terroir and has specialised in the production of organic and biodynamic wines, in which the soil and climate have a decisive influence on the process. Minimal intervention allows the different regions and soils to reveal their true character, making the wines – much like our Islay single malt whiskies – a truly authentic expression of their terroir. The Syrah, a red wine known for its powerful and full
and full body, has given SYC: 01 rich notes of red fruits and layers of spice that complement the characteristic aromatic peat smoke of Port Charlotte.
peat smoke of Port Charlotte.

Nose: The sweetness of caramel is immediately apparent on the nose, followed by a blend of fresh fruit and a subtle hint of peat smoke. Notes of strawberries, red apples, apricot jam and mixed berries from the Syrah casks come to the fore, underpinned by a combination of oak and lingering smoke. Gentle spices from the oak together with ginger, marzipan and honey complement the fruity character, which is further enhanced by the oak smoked over the fire.

Flavour: Toasted oak and elegant barbecue smoke envelop the palate, beautifully balanced with sweet fruit. Vibrant notes of candied peel, fresh mango, brown sugar and sweet chewing gum add lightness and complexity that cut through the smoke. A drop of water brings out the aromatic oak, while lavender and herbal notes combine with gentle honey, ground ginger and roasted coffee beans.

Finish: While the sweetness of fruit and oak remains, a gentle wave of peat smoke is unmistakable on the finish. Roasted Brazil nuts, coconut and cocoa powder lend a delicate creaminess, while a hint of dried seaweed lingers.
