Fortified Wines Aged Tawny

{THE FRUIT}

This fine aged tawny is made from the Barossa’s traditional tawny varieties - mostly grenache, with some mataro and shiraz - and has been blended to an average age of six years.

{THE WINEMAKING}

A solera-based system is used, enabling us to consistently release wines of high quality. A limited quantity of Aged Tawny is drawn for bottling each year and the barrels topped up with selected younger wine.

{THE COMMENTS}

The wine is a lovely golden tawny colour with definite red tinges. The spicy fruit flavours are a legacy of the high proportion of grenache and add a lifted freshness to the more complex aged characters in the background. The palate is smooth and rich, with the mid-palate sweetness balanced by an elegant drying finish.
