Starward Nova Single Malt Whisky Wine Cask 700mL
Starward Nova Wine Cask Single Malt Whisky Recent winner of Best Australian Whisky Innovator and crowned Best Craft Distilled Whisky in the world in 2016, NOVA is an impeccable reflection of what whisky can be. This unique expression draws most of its influence from the vibrancy of Australian red wines. For this whisky, Australian red wine barrels have been individually selected and kept exactly as they leave the winery to take advantage of a uniquely Australian red wine profile. The barrels are not charred, to retain the wine to oak character.
Starward Nova Single Malt Whisky Wine Cask is uniquely Australian, crafted exclusively with local wine barrels for maturation resulting in a Whisky with balanced aromas of raisins, bananas and a touch of balsamic lead to clove, toffee and nougat. The palate is filled with red berries, hints of cinnamon and a variety of savoury and spice driven notes. Starward Wine Cask provides a long, dry and tannic finish guides a strong linear reach through the palate, balancing a generous roundness and oiliness of the spirit.

Starward Nova Wine Cask Single Malt Whisky
Starward Nova Single Malt Whisky Wine Cask Tasting Notes: The colour is golden amber and the nose has instant aromas of golden syrup and black treacle. With time dried fruits, especially raisins and sultanas, and malty cereals come through. There are also aromas of spiced orange peel and something floral like honeysuckle in the background. On the palate this is mouth coating and viscous with notes of treacle and bitter chocolate evolving in to dried red and dark fruits (think of cranberries and raisins especially) and cinnamon. Sweetness is provided by golden syrup and brown sugar notes. The finish becomes very dry, spicy and bitter once the sweeter elements fade.
