Aged for a decade, this wine has the decadent, rich raisin palate of a fine Christmas cake. A true, barrell-aged Tawny Port, a dash of dry sherry adds complexity while the finish is long, luscious and luxurious. The perfect gift!

You say shiraz, McWilliam’s says syrah (for its new McW Reserve 660 Syrah from Canberra!). A true expression of the rich diversity and elegance of high-altitude wines, the McW 660 range features grapes that are harvested from vines grown at an average of 660 metres above sea level in particularly cool climates, such as Canberra, Hilltops and Tumbarumba. So, what’s the difference between shiraz and syrah? There’s no physiological difference with the grape variety — syrah is simply shiraz’s French name. Some Australian winemakers are choosing to make wines in the style of French syrah, which is lighter and leaner than the usual richer, riper and more full-bodied expressions Australians are used to drinking.

Vibrant red purple colour. Vibrant blackberry and dark chocolate fruits with French oak. A classic, full bodied Cabernet Sauvignon with silky cassis and dark chocolate fruit finishing with fine dry tannins of tremendous length.

Aromas A characterful wine with aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry, dark plums, dark boiled lollies, pomegranate, with hints of coconut and cedar oak. Taste True to the Barossa style of a full bodied wine and jam-packed flavours of cherries and red liquorice, balanced with integrated oak providing length and structure. Enjoy Pour a glass alongside a tender Eye Fillet steak and relax in good company.

With a philosophy to source top quality fruit from a single, meticulously managed vineyard, McWilliam's Single Vineyard delivers distinctly elegant & balanced wines. This McWilliam's Single Vineyard Tumbarumba Chardonnay was grown by Rob Parkes on his beautiful Glenburnie vineyard in the stunning Tumbarumba wine region. The cool aspect & rich volcanic soils produce a distinctly elegant, yet intense style of chardonnay.

This Tawny shows how good Australians are at making affordable fortified wine. With dried fruit flavours and dusty all-spice, its an after dinner treat.
