Is that a blend or is it just Springbank? We don't get the stuff here, but I've seen it in Canada.

Seng, do you know if there is grain in the blend or is it a vatted malt?

Does it taste like Springbank?

Says Blended and Bottled right on the box

Yeah, I wanted to know what was in the blend. If it was a blend of several malts or just grain and Springbank.

It's gotta be produced by Springbank judging by the packaging.

It's not a pure malt blend, supposedly blended from Springbank, Longrow and a Lowland grain believed to be Girvan.

I'll let you know after I open it tomorrow.

It is a Springbank product. Wish I can find the 30 Year Old.

Not this particular bottling but Yalumba is a very old and well established wine company that produces excellent value wine across all price brackets.

Information on the web suggest what you've got there is an excellent wine that will give any serious Cotes du Rhone and probably quite a few Chateauneuf du Pape a serious run for the money.
