Description

These hand-filled bottlings are available exclusively to visitors to the distillery. Valinchs are by definition only ever at cask strength, from a single barrel, and selected for their individuality. Each Valinch released has its own label and title, usually to commemorate a specific event. The Summertime Valinch has been finished in casks which previously held Chateau Latour wines. This is a special limited edition, with only 400 bottles made.
