DESCRIPTION

Tasting Notes

Deep golden. Rich aromas of cold tealeaf, toffee, honey and citrus.

Wine Making

The grapes are left until late in the season to achieve optimum ripeness, ensuring maximum fruit flavour and a high degree of natural sweetness. Only selected parcels of premium fruit are added to the Classic Rutherglen Topaque solera. The wine that provides the basis of this blend dates back to the 1960’s. Wine can only be withdrawn from this solera when it matches exactly with the previous withdrawal thus ensuring the quality and consistency of style.

Cellaring

Blended through our solera for optimum flavour and balance this wine will not improve with further cellaring and should ideally be enjoyed soon after opening. Perfect with fresh fruit, sticky date pudding or freshly brewed coffee and fine chocolates.

Technical

The Grapes: Muscadelle from Campbells Rutherglen vineyards.
Alcohol: 17.5%

Palate:

Intense and mouthfilling. Malt and toffee combine with rancio characters providing a wine of power and complexity with a luscious yet clean finish.

"Mid-amber with a red tinge; lots in this Classic - lemon toffee, cold tea, grilled nuts, fruitcake and raisins dunked in molasses. It's also spicy, very fresh and lively. Of course there's plenty of richness with the sweetness tempered by acidity and umami flavours." - 95 points
