The wine
A Westport small batch (sherry butt #3358-59) distilled in 1997 and bottled in 2014. Westport is generally the name used for Glenmorangie that has been blended with a very small amount of another whisky. This technique is called ‘teaspooning’’ and prevents bottlers from using the distillery’’s name. Wilson & Morgan was founded in 1992 by the Rossi family in Treviso. The son of a Venetian wine and oil merchant, Mario Rossi diversified the family business to include whisky importation after WWII, starting with blends in the 1970s, before moving onto single malts in the 1990s. It was one of his two sons, Fabio, a trained oenologist, who developed the bottling side of the business. Wilson & Morgan is known for its excellent taste in original finishes, such as port, rum and sherry casks.
