Glenmorangie Corton-Charlemagne Wine Cask Finish is a rare mature Highland single malt finished in casks that previously held Corton-Charlemagne white Burgundy, associated with Glenmorangie's prestige wine-cask experimentation under its Pursuit of Passion programme.
From the Producer
Glenmorangie has a long history of finishing single malt in ex-wine casks, with Wikipedia citing limited editions matured in casks previously used for Château Margaux as a well-known example of this approach (Wikipedia, "Glenmorangie distillery"). The Corton-Charlemagne finish extends the same idea into white Burgundy territory — Côte de Beaune wine casks from the Corton-Charlemagne grand cru appellation. Glenmorangie is distilled in Tain, Ross-shire, founded in 1843 and owned by The Glenmorangie Company, a subsidiary of Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy.

Best For
Serious Scotch collectors, wine-cask-finish enthusiasts and high-end gifting where rarity and provenance matter.
