Отзывы описывают виски как лёгкий, фруктовый и «летний» драм с заметным влиянием красного вина, но с частой горько-вяжущей нотой в послевкусии. Мнения о качестве расходятся: от «очень хорошего за свои деньги» до «разочарования».
развернуть подробно
В носовых описаниях чаще всего фигурируют красные фрукты и ягоды — клубника, вишня, малина, красная смородина, — а также ваниль, мёд, цитрус (апельсиновая корка, лимон), специи (корица, гвоздика, имбирь), дуб и отчётливая винная нота. Вкус в основном повторяет нос: красные фрукты, виноград, карамель, шоколад, специи и дуб; неоднократно отмечается влияние винной бочки. Финиш описывают как средний или короткий, с дубом, специями, шоколадом, красными фруктами, но также с сухостью, танинностью и горькостью.
Общий тон отзывов неоднороден. Часть текстов хвалит виски как лёгкий, освежающий, «летний» и хороший по соотношению цена-качество, отмечая приятный нос. Другие указывают на водянистость, слабую комплексность, короткий финиш, а также навязчивую горечь, танинность и кислотность, иногда называя это недостатком. Несколько отзывов прямо связывают эти черты с молодым возрастом и винной бочкой. Есть и резко негативные оценки, где послевкусие названо слишком сухим, вяжущим и неприятным.

For a bachelor party I was asked to give a small whisky tasting. This was the third in the lineup full lineup: Redbreast 12 (Potstill) Miltonduff 2008 IM (IB) Starward Nova (Australian) Edradour 12-year-old (Scottish Classic) Arran Port Cask Finish (Port Finish) Ardbeg 10 (Peat)
solid, an easy drinking dram the finish put me off the malt

What I would like to give this whisky credit for is that I could really detect a very clear note of red wine when I first nosed it.
SyleoExpert Senior6808 jan 2023 10:53 am
Yes, the red wine is at least clearly recognizable, but otherwise unfortunately quite bitter, woody and alcoholic. Malt, star anise and caramel give a few appealing notes, but overall they seem somehow artificial and artificial to me. Sorry, not my taste.

Delicious single malt from the land down under. It suffers from the anemic ABV, but it is a decent summer dram. The nose is the strongest point.

Palate follows the same lines as the nose, but more emphasis on wine notes. Grapes, slightly woody, red wine. For me much less sweet than I anticipated after the nose. Overall not bad at all, although I expected a bit more. Also its a bit watery, I expected more substance here.

Short-medium with grapes, plums, oak and dry red wine. Satisfying

Beautifully spicy, tropical fruits. Starward uses Australian red wine barrels, which are transported a maximum of 8 hours before they reach the distillery. Therefore, the barrels are not sulphurized and refilled immediately!

A good aroma, notes of sour berries slip through. In general, it is drinkable, there is not much to say, you can drink)

Young wine fruit whisky. In general, everything is fine, only there is an obsessive bitterness in the aftertaste.

A easy summer dram, not very complex. Short finish, slight alcohol spiciness. The nose is better than the palate. But for an NAS its too expensive for me.

https://whiskylovingpianist.wordpress.com/2024/06/08/summerton-whisky-festival-2024-1-4/ Creeping ever so slowly up the abv ladder, this is one I’ve tried before. The Nova has seen a maturation programme that consists of a 60%/40% French/US oak split. N: Another wine-y citrus caramel malty whisky. T: Spicy and very casky. F: Tannic gingery oak-spice with that gacky chew that often seems to come from the grape. C: Not as I remember it back in 2020 [WLP84].

Still acceptable on the nose with aromas comparable to a young Scotsman. Uninspired on the palate, thin and with a weak finish.
Rather short finish with some bitterness, chocolate, rather poorly integrated alcohol
RGillExpert Senior8016 jun 2024 11:31 am
Very good whisky, nice value for money. Mostly red fruits. then come honey, hint of ginger. Wood notes that are quite well integrated. With time we also have some brown sugar notes, creme brulée and licorice.
HammerHeadConnoisseur7113 jan 2026 6:35 pm
The nose is not entirely bad for a whisky matured on red wine barrels. On the palate and especially the finish this however is a recipe for disaster. Incredibly dry, tannic and acidic. Just not good.

Short sweetness with a prolongued tannic sourness and sharpness. Sour red fruit, poorly made red wine, drying on clove, pepper and bitter ashiness. Actually kind of revolting.

The aroma was somehow decent, but the taste of Coca-Cola immediately asks *( In general, quite a fruity profile, more like a new-make, the barrel here was clearly lazy and almost did not work. 21 19 19 18
