Single Cask Chardonnay Brandy

$275 AUD

Like its younger sibling TDB0008 that won World’s Best Brandy earlier this year, TDB0005 was distilled from Tasmanian Huon Valley Chardonnay and matured in a first-fill French oak ex-Tawny cask. A maturation of 13 years and 7 months has allowed the essence of the Chardonnay and the influence of the oak to reach a perfect balance - creating an exceptional brandy.

"Fantastically brilliant and a very enjoyable brandy. The nutty and spicy essence of Chardonnay has been well preserved and presented. A well matured Australian brandy with the oak in balance is the things brandy dreams are made of!"
-Heather Tillott, Head Distiller

Single Cask Brandy

Sullivans Cove XO Single Cask Brandy, like our Single Cask whiskies, is bottled one cask at a time, allowing each to express its own unique character. Each cask has been aged for a minimum of eight years and is bottled completely unblended and with no added colouring or flavouring of any kind. Many of these XO Single Cask bottlings are also single varietal, allowing you to taste the individul quality of each Tasmanian wine. These single cask brandies will strike a chord with single malt whisky drinkers due to their intense depth, rich complexity and balanced elegance.
Sullivans Cove XO Single Cask Brandy won "World's Best" at the World Brandy Awards in 2021.

Nose

Lovely heady and syrupy character activates Swoon Mode. Dried apricot, extreme glacé cherry and raspberry jube candies. Nougat and caramel fudge. Marmalade, orange rind, and a not insignificant tropical layer sitting on top of the masses of honey… Dried paw paw in particular. A sweet and perfumed grapey muscatel note.

Palate

Excellent texture, thick and silky. Nuts, dried fruit, lychee, honey and a blossom note. Banana and toffee, quince paste. It's really a swirling mass of fruit, sweet things and floral notes. Great base comes through of aniseed, like coriander seeds. It's quite fudgy, like nougat.

Finish

French nougat galore: lactic, honey and big time almonds. Touch of cigar box. Oak is present, giving a good structure which doesn’t at all overshadow the delicacy of the eau de vie; rather it complements it. Coriander seeds and licorice continue form the palate, and there's a wonderful dried figs, potpourri and Earl Grey tea element that lingers beautifully.
