Dailuaine 2018/2024 - 6 yo - Madeira Wine Barrique - Murray McDavid

Murray McDavid's Dailuaine 2018/2024 6 Year Old Madeira Wine Barrique is a youthful Speyside single malt finished in Ex-Madeira barriques, bottling balanced and complex at 50.1% ABV as part of the Mission series.

Tasting Profile: The nose explodes with Madeira-influenced sticky toffee, dark cherry, and stewed plum, layered with marzipan, cinnamon, and a hint of rancio on a malty base of Dairuain. The palate offers rich fruitcake sweetness, an oily mouthfeel, roasted nuts, gentle peat smoke, and the distillery's signature bold spirit, warmed by spicy oak. The finish is medium-long, with dry fig, balsamic acidity, chocolate bitterness, and subtle earthy malt notes.

Background information
Distilled in 2018 and finished in small 225L Madeira barriques, this limited-edition release brings Murray McDavid's cask-matching expertise to Dalhuin's powerful profile (hidden in blends like Johnnie Walker). Non-chill filtered and natural in color, it's lauded for its punchy value and is perfect for Sherry/Madeira lovers seeking a young, intense Speyside. Its vigorous depth is enhanced when paired with blue cheese or fruit cake.
