Thomas S. Moore Chardonnay Finish

Distillery: Barton 1792 Distillery, Bardstown, Kentucky
Age: 5 years
Proof: 97.9
Nose: Offers a complex interplay of darker bourbon notes—roasted caramel, baked apple, and cinnamon—paired with vibrant aromas of green apple, tropical fruit, and a hint of buttery oak from the Chardonnay finish.
Palate: The taste combines rich honey and caramel with bright white wine characteristics, featuring notes of peach, apricot, and vanilla, all supported by oak tannins and a touch of cinnamon.
Color: Deep amber with golden highlights
Notes: This expression showcases a unique cask-finishing technique that enhances the bourbon's profile with fresh, fruity nuances. Its extended maturation in Chardonnay casks brings forth an interesting contrast between the bourbon's depth and the wine's brightness.
