Stanton & Killeen Grand Muscat / NV / 500mL

Description:

Stanton and Killeen Rutherglen VIC NV Grand Muscat offers a luxurious fortified wine experience, blending rich sweetness with complex layers of dried fruit and nutty undertones.

Diving into the appearance, this Grand Muscat reveals a captivating deep tawny colour with hints of mahogany, signalling its aged depth from the solera system typical of Rutherglen fortified wines. On the nose, aromas of raisins, figs, and caramelised toffee dominate, intertwined with subtle spices like nutmeg and a whisper of orange peel

On the palate, the wine unfolds with a velvety texture and profound sweetness balanced by a gentle acidity, delivering flavours of dark chocolate, hazelnuts, and sticky date pudding. This Stanton and Killeen expression showcases the hallmark richness of Rutherglen VIC Muscat, where waves of treacle and butterscotch add to its indulgent mouthfeel.

The finish is remarkably long and warming, leaving echoes of espresso and candied citrus that evolve beautifully over time.
