Tastes like: Turkish Delight and Nanna's fruit cake. Aromatic rose petal with notes of ginger dried fig and sticky raisins.
Goes with: Muscat and raisin ice cream or a chocolate panna cotta with rosewater syrup.
Average age: The Rutherglen range is blended from several vintages with an average age of two to four years. It is the youngest and freshest tier of the four classifications: Rutherglen, Classic, Grand and Rare.
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”.
