Introducing the 2023 Master’s Collection Sonoma Triple Finish by Woodford Reserve, a unique blend of Woodford Reserve bourbon that has been finished in Sonoma County Pinot Noir, Brandy, and former Bourbon barrels previously used for red wine aging. This limited-release product showcases the innovative spirit of the brand and draws inspiration from past Master’s Collection releases and product experimentation.
Woodford Reserve has a history of pushing the boundaries of bourbon, beginning with the first-ever Pinot Noir-finished Kentucky Bourbon in 2014 and followed by the first American Brandy Cask-finished Bourbon in 2016. The Pinot Noir and Brandy barrels, sourced from renowned Sonoma County wineries, brought forward robust fruit flavors, dark chocolate, and baking spices.
This release is a harmonious blend of bourbon and wine, an entirely unique offering. The finishing process, involving a second barrel from a different spirits or wine producer, enhances the bourbon’s flavors and complexity, creating a truly distinct profile.
