Green Spot Château Montelena (2017)
Green Spot Château Montelena
Irish Single Pot Still Whiskey – Zinfandel Wine Cask Finish
The Green Spot Château Montelena is a special collaboration between Mitchell & Son and the iconic Château Montelena from Napa Valley, California. This single-pot still whiskey was classically aged and then finished in Zinfandel wine barrels , resulting in a distinctly fruity and sunny character.
The nose reveals ripe pear, apple, honey, and vanilla , complemented by red berries and a light spiciness from the barrel. The palate is round and lively, with stone fruit, soft spices, a creamy pot-still texture, and a touch of red fruit . The finish is medium to long , fresh, and elegant, with a beautiful balance between fruit and oak.
At 46% alcohol and with an approachable style, this is a refined yet playful Green Spot , ideal for those who enjoy single pot stills with a distinct wine influence.
