Glenmorangie, Pursuit of Passion Wine Cask Collection – Margaux
The Glenmorangie Margaux Cask Finish was released as part of the distillery’s Pursuit of Passion Wine Cask Collection, overseen by Dr Bill Lumsden. Distilled in the early 1990s, the whisky was matured initially in ex-bourbon casks before spending more than two decades in select Margaux wine casks from Bordeaux. At 29 years old, it stands as the oldest whisky in the collection, with the extended wine maturation delivering a dense, fruit-driven profile shaped by dark berries, earthy depth and structured oak influence.
Nose
Black cherries, plums, compost, oak tannins
Palate
Dark fruit, oak spice, tobacco leaf
Finish
Stewed cherries, gentle oak spice, forest floor
Black cherries and plums lead the nose, supported by gentle earthy tones and a hint of aged oak. The palate is rich and full, leaning into a Margaux-like dark fruit depth with wood spice and a touch of tobacco adding structure. The finish is long and warm with fruit, soft spice and a faint trace of dried earth.
