Barrell Bourbon Dovetail Gold

Barrell Craft Spirits' Dovetail Gold Label is an opulent blend that elevates the original Dovetail expression to new heights. This release incorporates whiskeys aged up to 25 years, meticulously finished in a combination of Dunn Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon barrels, blackstrap molasses rum casks, and late bottled vintage port pipes. The nose is rich and complex, presenting aromas of dark berries, molasses, and aged leather. The palate is decadent, unveiling layers of blackberry compote, dark chocolate, and espresso, intertwined with notes of toasted oak and sweet tobacco. The finish is exceptionally long, with a harmonious balance of sweetness and spice. Bottled at cask strength, Dovetail Gold Label offers a luxurious and profound whiskey experience.

Flavor Profile: Rich, complex, and layered. Expect notes of dark fruit (plums, cherries), dried fruit (raisins, figs), dark chocolate, caramel, vanilla, toasted oak, and a range of spices (cinnamon, clove, allspice). The finishing in various fortified wine casks (rum, port, and Dunn Vineyards Cabernet) adds significant depth and complexity. It has a full body and a very long, lingering finish.

Pairs Well With:

Food: Dark chocolate desserts (truffles, cake), strong cheeses (blue cheese, aged Gouda), dried fruit and nut platters, cigar (if you enjoy that pairing), roasted duck or game meats.
