FUNFACT: The Bootleg Series Vol III comes in a handmade ceramic bottle featuring Bob Dylan’s painting, Sunday Afternoon, which showcases radiant coloring and brush strokes to illustrate a boating scene from the shore. Each bottle is housed in an individually numbered, handmade leather journal with ornate detailing that nods to traditional Southern Spanish architecture.
Native to Southern Spain, these casks are used to age an exclusive type of white wine utilizing a fully natural process that creates what’s described as a unique hue of orange in the finished wine. Bottled at cask strength, Heaven’s Door secondarily aged its mature Kentucky bourbon for almost a year in Vino de Naranja Casks, imparting what they feel is a subtle sweetness, dark amber color and a multi-layered flavor profile.
