Tastes like: Cherry and chocolate pie! It’s fresh and vibrant with lots of blackberry, plum, cloves and spice.
Goes with: Anything that has a lovely mix of nuts, spice and sweet stewed fruit like cherry pie or pecan pie. It’s also great with a savoury cheese and nut platter.
Average age: the Rutherglen range is the youngest blend with an average age of 2-4 years. Want something with a little more body and dry, savoury notes? Try the Classic Tawny.
Cellaring: We’ve done the hard work in the winery by ageing in old fortified barrels. Once bottled, no further ageing will occur, so we recommend you enjoy within a year or two of purchase. It’s freshest within the first few weeks of opening the bottle and won’t “go off”.
What are fortified wines? Still keen to learn more about how fortifieds are made and about the four-tier classification system? Read our guide here. We also sell a fabulous range of home barrels and blending fortifieds for people who want to develop their own unique blend.
