Отзывы в основном описывают виски как фруктовый и специйный, с заметным влиянием винной бочки, хотя некоторые считают его слишком сухим или «винным». Мнения о балансе и качестве расходятся.
развернуть подробно
В отзывах часто упоминается влияние бочки из-под Zinfandel: винные, виноградные и ягодные ноты (красные ягоды, вишня, виноград), а также специи, дуб, мёд, ваниль и солод. Некоторые отмечают, что винная отделка не «перекрывает» базовый характер, другие — что виски стал суше и менее свежим по сравнению с обычным Green Spot. Вкус описывают как мягкий, маслянистый или сливочный, с нотами карамели, шоколада, кофе, трав и цитрусов. Финиш чаще средний или средне-долгий, иногда сухой, пряный или с оттенком дуба.
Оценки в текстах варьируются от восторженных до сдержанных: часть отзывов хвалит сложность и «характер», часть считает виски плоским, слишком сухим или чрезмерно «винным». Несколько отзывов сравнивают его с базовым Green Spot и другими релизами серии, отмечая как улучшение, так и потерю свежести. Крепость 46% обычно описывают как хорошо интегрированную.

Peach and apricot skins, lemon spritz, honeydew, cantaloupe, cherries, grapes, malt, white pepper, apples, bananas and their skins, 7-Up, butter, some barley, some sawdust, some porridge, and white chocolate powder. This is very Zinfandel-forward and punchy. I usually like whiskies to be more than 46%, but this fits the abv perfectly - the flavours are punchy enough at 46%. I really dig it. I've liked all 3 whiskey geese whiskies I've tried equally (this, Léoville Barton & Quails' Gate).

One of those whiskers that, once opened, is gaining in quality.

It's Green Spot Irish single pot still whiskey which was initially matured in traditional sherry and bourbon casks, and was then finished for 12 months in French oak Zinfandel wine casks, from the prestigious Chateau Montelena in Napa Valley, California. This is the second edition in the 'Wine Geese' series, following Green Spot Chateau Léoville Barton released in 2015, both of which feature whiskey finished in casks from wineries run by Irish winemakers around the world. Montelena was bought by Irishman Jim Barrett in the 1970s.

I usually can not win wine finishes that much. After the Green Spot Chateau Leoville Barton, there was great hope that the subsequent bottling might be the re-launch of a Blue Spot or Red Spot. But no, still n wine finish. But uh, luck, the finish here has not messed up, but the nice flavors of the standard Green Spot "a little underfed". Nice addition to the Green Spot range. Unfortunately not yet available in Germany.

Sweet-spicy with a (in a positive sense) interesting combination of ginger cookies, milk chocolate, vanilla and ripe red grapes. Oak wants to get involved, but ultimately does not prevail. On the other hand, after some time even more fruits come to the fore: blackberries, raspberries and cherries. The spice remains discreetly in the background or is put there by the fruit flavors and superimposed. Cinnamon is to be guessed, perhaps also still grated cloves.
Вкус
89
Dry already in the start with grape juice, oak chips, freshly ground coffee beans and bitter honey. Slightly cooling / mentholig. This grape juice note is not known from the standard Green Spot, so it could come from the wine barrel. Again, the berry mix from the nose. On the tongue, however, spicy with a nice interplay of fruit and spice. Nougat chocolate and ice coffee.

Medium to long, stays cool, but it is always spicy and gets a pleasant impact of fine herbs. Nougat chocolate en masse. Also has a bit of Tiramisu in liquid.

inconspicuous, desolate, flat. I expected more after the Green Spot with a red wine finish.

By default, Green Spot consists of 7 - 10 year old single pot still whiskeys made from sherry and bourbon barrels. Here is a 12-month ripening in French Oak Zinfandel Wine Casks.

My first “spot” and I like it right away. The wine barrel is noticeable but - and this is positive - it does not appear superimposed or superimposed. The Green Spot Château Mentelena is slender, but with character! Again an Irishman who makes me feel positive.

Dark straw or a lighter gold with a splash of rose, this is how you could interpret the color of the green spot. At first a very subdued start in the nose. After a while in the glass, the nose opens and the alcohol fades. A very fine fruitiness emerges. Light, red berries such as currants and raspberries, maybe also some strawberry pulp, are part of the party. A little vanilla underlines this nice fruit pot pourri. Behind it lies something spicy green, grass on a freshly cut Irish meadow. With even more calm in the glass, the fruit is combined with the spiciness. A very nice nose!
Вкус

Very soft, velvety mouthfeel. Sweet milk caramel together with the berry fruit are immediately present in the taste. Then there are spices, but mildly spicy, no sharpness available. With the second sip, the spices become more intense after the caramel fruitiness.

Dark coffee aromas at the end remain medium for a long time. But the fruity notes are also present in the mouth until the end. At the very end you could taste the grape seeds from the Zinfandel barrel.
YD84Expert Senior8511 nov 2022 3:16 am
There is a little too much furniture varnish on the nose for me, but water tames that and brings out a nice complixity. The palate starts off well but goes a little syrupy sweet. The finish is nice with a rich sponge cake vibe and that typical Irish whiskey creaminess. I can't help but feel a little disappointed with the overall experience, though.

S 7 A lot drier than the regular green spot (Minus) and it delivers a stronger punch of spices on both nose and palate (Plus). The nose can be challenging if you’re expecting it to behave like a regular green spot just with some “wine influence”. Dry whiskies aren’t my cup of tea, unfortunately. [78-82] I'll gladly welcome another dram. N 24 Refreshing, yet quite dry, almost like a dry vermouth. And slowly I got that dry oloroso matusalem impression with the gradually intensifying sweetness. The dry nature makes the Jalapeño much more obvious. Unripe grapes, dark berries, mild tannin. Buttery oak underneath. P 25 Full-bodied. Spicy, sweet, oily, creamy. Slightly overripe, juicy fruits (mashed red apples and pears). Black pepper, nutmeg. More buttery oak shines through. A touch sour at the back of the palate. F 23 Mid, fairly dry finish. Juicy fruits & dried oak lingering.

A big step up from the basic Greenspot. It's layered and fun. It lost its freshness, but replaced it with complexity and a fuller flavor. Herbs, oak, sweet red apple. But there's still that unripe green apple in the background.

Appearance: Light gold, almost straw. Nose: Wine, honey, biscuits, caramel, banana, vanilla, pear, cantaloupe. Fantastic nose, very bright and fruity. Palate: Cinnamon, wood / pot spice, oak, honey, vanilla, less of the wine. Rather light body, a bit sharp. Finish: Wood spice, cinnamon, honey. With Water: Thins it out and brings out more spice. Not recommended. Overall: The nose is fantastic, up there with the Yellow spot, with less depth but the wine barrels give it a lot of nuance. This is not so effective in the flavor, however. Still very nice and I want to try the original.

It doesn't add much more than the basic 40% green spot, you even lose it, the wine effect is very strong and it takes away a lot of delicacies that were found in the basic green spot.

2nd declination with after 7 to 10 years spent in casks, maturation in American white wine!
LordBellamyConnoisseur8729 mar 2020 6:23 pm
with water: with the 46% it fits very well, nevertheless we try a little water, no big changes, a little more spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), and the red wine barrel gets through a little more Conclusion: great Irishman, the finish is very coherent, not just on top of it as so often, the basic character still comes into play. For me, the perfect summer whiskey, very tasty, round and well balanced
