Chateau Yaldara 1847 20-Year-Old Muscat

Fortifieds were once the lifeblood of the Barossa – of the entire Australian wine industry if it comes to that – but these days, more of a curiosity. But great fun and such a joy to drink. This is a brown/teak colour with a near green rim. The nose is all raisins, with hints of toffee and caramel. Steps up even more on the palate thanks to lovely dried fruits coming into play. Good intensity and very good length so lots to like.
