Nose
Intense aroma of dried fruit, musk stick, Xmas cake and toffee apple with prune and nutty notes.
Palate
Richly flavoured with dried fruit, toffee, caramel and quince flavours. A luxurious sweet wine matched by intense flavour and long, long flavour.
Growing Conditions
Dunsborough is warm enough in late March to bring about some raisining and concentration in this grape and yet dry enough to inhibit the growth of botrytis. The vines are netted to exclude birds.
Harvest
Hand picked
Winemaking
In Puncheons of 500 litres under a tin roof outside the cellar.
Appearance
Red with a slight orange tone and a brown-orange hue
