A smooth and silky tawny that delivers rich nut-infused aromatics and fresh fruit characters. Made from the Barossa's traditional tawny varieties, Grenache, Mataro and Shiraz and blended via a solera-based system to an average of 10 years, the palate is sweet and mellow, but finishes deliciously dry.
{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.
