Fortified Wines 10 Year Old Tawny
{THE FRUIT}
This fine mature tawny is made from the Barossa’s traditional tawny varieties - grenache, mataro and shiraz - and has been blended to an average age of 10 years.
{THE WINEMAKING}
The Tawny Material is assessed and reblended into a solera-based system, which will enable us to consistently release wines of high quality. Only a strictly limited quantity of 10 Year Old Tawny will be drawn from the solera for bottling each year, and the barrels will be topped up with selected younger wine.
{THE COMMENTS}
The Grant Burge 10 Year Old Tawny is a richly flavoured wine showing a tawny colour with tinges of red. Complex rancio characters show through on the bouquet, together with some fresh fruit characters and excellent integration of spirit. The palate is sweet and mellow but finishes quite dry and shows a harmonious balance of developed fruit characters and oak tannins.
