Brand Description

Much mythology has grown up around Scotch whiskey but in reality, a great whiskey does not have to be the product of one distillery; nor should its age be a measure of quality. Richard Paterson, Scotland's renowned and only third-generation master blender, created the Sheep Dip "vatting" or marrying together 16 different Highland, Island and Speyside single malt whiskies. The whiskies are aged between eight-21 years, each adding unique characteristics to produce an exceptional product. These chosen whiskies are married together in fresh (first-fill) American oak barrels to produce the Sheep Dip Blended Malt. Sheep Dip takes its name from the English farming term for an insecticide once used on British sheep farms

NOTES OF

SCENT & FLAVOR

COLOR

Deep colour, almost opaque.

NOSE

Aroma of excellent complexity, with wild bush and spicy notes like curry, pepper and ginger, red berries and black fruits mixed with a light cacao touch, the result of a good maturation, along with a slightly stony finish.

PALATE

On the palate it has a powerful attack, with a lively acidity, firm and well present tannins, wild bush and red berry notes, with an extremely long finish and great concentration.

“Thanks to the characteristics and potential of the vineyards at Quinta do Seixo, it was possible to cut through the strong maturations of this year's harvest. As a result, we produced very balanced and robust wines, with aromatic notes typical of more mature years.” - Luís Sottomayor, head of Sogrape's winemaking

ORIGINS

Quinta do Seixo Vintage is a unique expression of this renowned estate, where a combination of soil, slope inclination, sun exposure and reduced amount of available water contribute to the production of intense and complex wines.The 100-year-old vines producing Port create wines full of intensity, character and freshness.
