River Roots Barrel Co. 14-Year Single Barrel Port Finished Bourbon 138.04 Proof VSB-05 - Selected by Seelbach's

Regular price $299.99 Sale

Age: 14-Years & 7-months-old

Finish Time: 6-years Port Barrel

Proof: 138.04 Proof

Tasting Notes: While the nose sets itself up to pack a punch, the intensity of the finishing is what is highlighted most here. Juicy, satiating, intense port fruitiness, vanilla extract, brown sugar, and damp rickhouse.

Much like the nose, the palate is focused on intense fruit saturation. Where VBS-04 was thick chocolate, deeply syrupy with dense fruit intensity, VSB-05 is a much cleaner entry, still with milk chocolate and dark cherry but followed with deep, dry, earthy tobacco and mushroomy funk.

The lingering finish goes back to highlighting fruity sweetness with trailing balanced oak that continues to draw out the longer you sip.

Bottle count: 202 bottles
