Bruichladdich Micro Provenance 16yr Amarone Cask #3347 Vintage Wine & Spirits Exclusive Cask Selection is crafted on Islay, Scotland using Optic barley and matured in a first-fill Amarone cask. Bottled at 57.4% ABV, this rare release is one of only four casks allocated to the U.S. and marks the first time Bruichladdich has offered a private retail cask.
The nose reveals baked apples, cinnamon, clove, red wine tannins, worn leather, and a subtle sourdough note. The palate opens with cherry, baked pear, and cherry pie filling, followed by light oak, lemon zest, and soft vanilla. Rich and weighty overall, it shows a structured, layered profile with a pronounced Amarone influence, best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of water.
