Hip Sip is matured in old oak barrels, which integrated well with the ripe berry fruits and generous mouth fill on the palate. Its is blended skilfully across a number of vintages to obtain the optimum colour and complexity in taste, sweet and nutty. Ideal as after dinner nips or with cheese platters.

Barbadillo Amontillado begins as a Manzanilla, however, during 3 years in the Solera system, yeast on the surface of the wine consumes all the sugars and dies away, wine begins to oxidise and turns a deep golden colour. After a further 3 years, the wine is blended with a little Pedro Ximenez and fortified to 17%.

Sweet style of Vermouth to be enjoyed with cola or over ice.

Mead is the oldest fermented drink known to mankind. Liqueur Mead is made by fortifying Mead with a neutral spirit and a selection of herbs and spices. After up to 3 years in oak barrels, it is ready to drink neat or over ice.

The Italian style of Bianco Vermouth (spicy, with a little sweetness) offers an alternative to the extra dry style for a range of cocktails.

Barbadillo, established in 1821 and still family-owned are one of the most important wineries in the Jerez region in south-western Spain. With substantial properties in the 'Jerez Triangle'. The lovely sweet and concentrated Eva Cream Sherry is a pure delight to the sense. Lusciously sweet without being too heavy on the palate, the Eva is perfect for matching with light desserts.

Kalleske JMK Vintage fortified has been made in honour of John Malcolm Kalleske who has hand tended the vineyard where the fruit for this fabulous VP is sourced from for over 50 years. Kalleske's first attempt at a vintage fortified has seen it excel beyond belief. A very 'serious' style fortified without any of the candied sweetness sometimes evident in Australian 'ports', but a lip-smacking sweet/savoury blend that is at home more in Portugal than in the Barossa Valley. Outstanding.

Fresh and dry, average of five to eight years. Doesn't exhibit all the typical Flor characteristics, but carries great length, and quite a refreshing finish.

Halfway between wine and whiskey, Vin Santo is the most distinctive dessert wine of Italy. Plump and sweet with hints of honey, cinnamon and candied orange. Great on its own, even better served with cakes and biscotti.

Brilliant clarity, deep orange-gold colour with strawberry highlights. Fresh intense varietal aromas of Turkish Delight, musk, tea rose, vanilla, soft sweet spice, fruitcake, raisin, sultana, dried berries, and quince paste finishing with a subtle lift of spirit. Rich and flavoursome layers of fruit, extending those found on the nose (raisin, musk, dried plum, quince, vanilla and spice). Youthful, luscious finish with gentle warmth from spirit. Small yields of flavour packed fruit from Rosewoods aged Muscat à petits grains vines are aged and blended with other years to bring out the clean, fine fruit characteristics of this old favourite. Its young, cherry, caramel and coffee flavours can be savoured with, or in place of, dessert.
