Museum Muscat NV
“Deep, dark tawny-brown colour with a yellow rim, very viscous in the glass. The aromas are intensely aged and very complex, with molasses and toffee and malt flavours of great depth and persistence. Every indication here of a very old wine. A simply glorious wine to sip.” 97 Points

Artizan Rare Muscat NV
“Very deep, very aged tawny-brown appearance, with a green-yellow rim. The bouquet is extraordinarily complex and layered, the palate overflowing with toffee, molasses, raisin flavours with good muscat character and sweetness, a very viscous texture. A super-sweet, super-luscious muscat.”  96 Points

Classic Muscat NV
“Good depth and brightness of tawny/brown colour with orange/yellow edges, the bouquet reminds of Violet Crumble—chocolate coated honeycomb—and the wine is sweet and bright on the palate, showing a lot of youthful material.” 92 Points

Rare Tawny NV
“Deep rich tawny colour with a yellow rim, there's a lot of rancio here from excellent aged character as well as concentration and richness. A powerful, concentrated wine showing genuine age, the aftertaste rolling on very long.” 95 Points

We are thrilled with Huon Hookes latest review for The Real Review of our Classic Muscat awarding it 95 points and ranking it as one of Australia’s great fortifieds. 

“Deepish tawny-brown colour with russet tints and a yellow-green rim. The bouquet is intensely muscaty and concentrated, while the taste is rich and sweet, lusciously rounded and supple, with lots of viscosity and vibrant fruit in the centre, its freshness assisted by clean acidity. The muscat fruit is very present yet the wine has considerable aged complexity from older blending wines. A lovely drinking muscat.”

Available to taste and purchase from our Cellar Door or online via the website.

Leading Australian wine writer Huon Hooke recently reviewed our 2018 Reserve Chardonnay for The Real Review, awarding it 96 Points!

You can read and watch the full review below, Thanks Huon.

"Light yellow, bright colour. Passionfruit and tropical aromas, a tinge of grapefruit, some slaty mineral notes, quite pungent and passionfruity, with an undercurrent of chewy tannin on the aftertaste. There is a shrillness to the wine and a definite Gingin clone style to the fruit. Delicious." Drink 2021 -2028
