Glenmorangie Margaux Wine Cask Finish is a premium Highland single malt shaped by maturation in casks that previously held red Bordeaux wine from the Margaux appellation, associated with Glenmorangie's Pursuit of Passion wine-cask collection.
From the Producer
Glenmorangie has a documented record of producing limited editions matured in casks previously used for Château Margaux; Wikipedia notes these bottlings were, as of 2011, extremely hard to find and priced accordingly (Wikipedia, "Glenmorangie distillery"). The Margaux Cask Finish sits within Glenmorangie's wider portfolio of wine-cask finishes, alongside other prestigious French appellations. Glenmorangie is distilled in Tain, Ross-shire, founded in 1843, and is owned by The Glenmorangie Company, a subsidiary of Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy.
