The Hinch 19-Year-Old Single Malt Château De La Ligne Grande Reserve Finish is an extraordinary Irish whiskey that beautifully unites two passions of Hinch founder Terry Cross: world-class Irish distilling and fine French winemaking. Limited to just 1,750 bottles, this rare release was matured for 19 years in Kentucky bourbon barrels before being finished for six additional months in casks previously filled with Château De La Ligne’s Grande Reserve—a Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. The result is a stunning whiskey with a deep ruby red hue and a nose brimming with red summer berries, plum, apple, and a touch of red liquorice. On the palate, layers of toffee, caramel, and dark cocoa are lifted by sweet vanilla, toasted oak, and the unmistakable influence of rich red fruits imparted by the wine cask finish. This harmonious combination delivers a whiskey that is both complex and irresistibly smooth, with remarkable depth and elegance. Housed in an elegant presentation gift box, the set also includes a bottle of the Château De La Ligne Grande Reserve itself—a structured, full-bodied red wine offering ripe fruit, spice, and velvety tannins. Together, they form a luxurious pairing that tells a story of craftsmanship, heritage, and passion across two iconic regions.
