Aberfeldy is a Highland single malt distillery founded in 1896 by brothers John and Tommy Dewar, on the banks of the Pitilie Burn in Perthshire. It has long formed the malty backbone of the Dewar's blend, while also being bottled in its own right as a honeyed, orchard-fruit driven single malt.
This limited-edition 21 Year Old was matured for two decades in a mix of sherry and bourbon casks before its final months resting in Argentinian Malbec wine casks from the Finca Ambrosia winery in Mendoza — a collaboration between Aberfeldy's Malt Master Stephanie Macleod and Argentinian wine maker Matias Macias.
The Malbec finish brings classic notes of blackberry, plum and black cherry, layered over toasted cereal, sage and rosemary on the nose, with a rich fruit-forward palate.
