Whisky Review: Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban Highland Single Malt Scotch
Introduction We’re revisiting an old favorite this week: Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban , a Highland scotch finished in Ruby Port casks, now boasting a 14-year age statement. Back in 2019, we reviewed the then-12-year version as part of a Glenmorangie sampler pack, and Quinta Ruban stood out as an incredible value. With the upgrade to 14 years and a retail price of around $70, we’re eager to see how it holds up after all these years and whether the added aging gives it even more character. This Highland single malt clocks in at 46% ABV and is made from 100% malted barley. After its initial maturation in ex-bourbon barrels, it’s finished in Ruby Port casks, which we expect to bring fruit-forward richness and depth. Let’s dive in. Nose Brad: The nose has all sorts of really nice fruit flavors going on. It’s got a bit of a peach vibe. There’s a lot of raisins from the port influence and a honey drizzle I really like. The longer I sit with it, the more it rem

videoA Rare Portuguese Pinot Noir Carlos Loved (and Angus Didn’t)
Carlos is back from Portugal with a tan, a cellar full of memories and a very rare bottle to share. In this episode of Got Somme, Angus and Carlos unpack Carlos’ recent trip home, from rediscovering beautifully evolved Portuguese wines from 2008 and 2014 to seeing how dramatically Portugal’s restaurant scene and wine culture have developed. They also settle a surprisingly heated Instagram debate about cork length, ageing wine in large-format bottles and why a shorter cork is not always a bad sign. Then comes the main event: a 600-bottle (total) Pinot Noir from Portugal’s Douro Valley. Carlos sees elegance, freshness and a fascinating expression of an international variety in one of Portugal’s most iconic wine regions. Angus? He is less convinced. Is it a brilliant, unexpected Pinot Noir, or simply a wine speaking a language your palate does not yet understand?
