"This Australian classic is packed with dates, prunes, raisins, cranberries, if there's a fruit and it's been dried, it's in here. It is deep, unctuous and rich. Sulphur, chocolate, a hint of parma ham pops up, and then it's back to the heavier sweet stuff."

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep burnished amber with copper-gold highlights and a sunlit, golden core.
Nose
Opulent dried-fruit bouquet—dates, prunes, raisins and cranberries—layered over a rich, syrupy sweetness. A subtle sulfur lift adds mineral depth, while dark chocolate notes emerge, with a delicate touch of Parma ham weaving through the fruit-forward richness.
Palate
On the palate, a lush wave of dried fruit—dates, prunes, raisins and cranberries—unctuous and opulent. Rich cocoa notes weave through the sweetness, with a sly whisper of parma ham for savory lift. The fruit lingers deep and velvety, finishing long, warm and impeccably refined.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish that lingers with dark dried fruits—dates, prunes, raisins—threaded by cocoa and vanilla from the French oak. A velvet, warming glow coats the tongue, leaving a nuanced sweetness that slowly fades into spice and a whisper of toasted oak.
