Rutherglen Estates Durif
Durif achieves cult-like status among those who enjoy its dense concentrated charm. Intense aromas of dark berry fruits and liquorice notes are perfectly married with a rich and ripe palate.
All Saints Estate Rutherglen Durif
“Vivacious? Juicy? We expect durif to be bold, but it can also surprise. Here we see a case in point: a fragrant, supple, smooth durif with plenty left in reserve. There is power, but there is also elegance. Dark berries and plums, dried rosemary, violet, bitter chocolate, spice and a touch of amaro bitters introduce a wine that runs long, with tannins wrapped nicely around the whole.95pts, Great Value” (Jeni Port, The Halliday Wine Companion). Owned and managed by the 4th generation of the Brown family, All Saints’ National Trust–listed property, with its impressive castle tower centrepiece, is an eye catching destination for visitors. With ancient vines and some of the oldest fortified wines in the country, they specialise in Muscat, muscadelle, Shiraz, Marsanne,and fabulous Durif, as is in evidence here.
All Saints Estate Museum Muscadelle Non-Vintage
Christmas cake dark colour, with tinges of olive green at the rim. Thick and viscous in the glass. The aromas combine the impression of great age with tremendous vitality. Deep and brooding, reminiscent of curious characters such as cold tea, leather, tobacco and malt, coupled with pretty honeysuckle and barley sugar notes. Then the flavours, simultaneously almost impossibly sweet, tart and intense. It has rich malt, polished leather, bursts of raisined fruit, vibrant spice and earthy warmth. The initial sweetness gives way to mouth watering acidity and tactile graininess followed by a constantly developing finish that lasts for minutes. Almost overwhelming at first, even the tiniest sip is immensely satisfying and yet decadently moreish.
Stanton & Killeen Classic Topaque
Made from Muscadelle grapes and previously known asTokay this wine is the foundation of Stanton & Killeen Topaque range exuding lively flavours and great versatility. White gold in colour with aromas of quince jelly, cumquats and dried fruit. The palate has notes of zesty lemon peel and butter menthol which combine to reveal a very silky mouthfeel and long finish.

Three Chain Road Elderflower Gin
Juniper - Elderflower - Orange - Angelica Root - Cucumber - Lavender - Rose Petals - Cassia Bark A distinctly floral Old Tom style Gin, created by infusing lavender, rose-petals and of course, elderflower. On the nose it is honeyed and floral , bursting with botanicals - a hint of spice comes from cassia bark. On the palate a soft sweetness is followed by flavours of rose petals and chamomile while delicate notes of lychee and green floral notes linger on the finish.
Three Chain Road Premium Dry Gin
Juniper - Orange - Star Anise - Lemon Myrtle - Angelica Root - Cardamom - Lemon Verbena - Bitter Almond Our take on a classic London Dry style Gin. With our Premium Dry Gin we wanted to create a product that is distinctly of Rutherglen. We use Angelica root to bring out a lovely aniseed note, that is reminiscent of fine aged Durif. This is complimented by native Australian botanicals like lemon myrtle and wattle seed. Juniper characters lead and are clean on the palate, flavours of licorice and lemon myrtle linger, adding a desirable length and warmness to this gin.
Buller Premium Fine Muscat
Buller and Muscat have been inseparable for almost a century, and the reason is quite evident in the bottle. Rich and luscious to the front palate and balanced with a subtle length of flavour that seems to hover for an eternity. A winner of multiple gold medals, Buller's Premium Fine Muscat is a must for any true fortified aficionado.
