La Horincie Plum Brandy Aged 16 months (Horinca prune) 500ml

La Horincie produces this plum brandy from a selected harvest of ripe plums, distilled twice in copper alembic stills and matured for at least 16 months in oak cask. Bottled at 50% ABV, it brings together preserved fruit character with the added texture and colour gained during cask ageing.

Delicate and finely detailed, it opens with dried fruit, backed by notes of acacia honey and walnuts. The palate is balanced and ripe, with a fresh acidity that keeps the profile lifted. On the finish, the fruit reaches its fullest expression, joined by well-integrated alcohol and hints of vanilla, oak wood and bitter chocolate from the oak maturation. It suits richly savoury dishes and composed plates where its fruit and structure can stand alongside bold flavours.
