Fortified Wine

McWilliam's Royal Reserve Tawny

This is a sweeter simpler style Tawny, quite fruit forward, lighter in style.

Penfolds Grandfather Tawny

Widely regarded as one of Australia's benchmark fortified wines, the Penfolds Grandfather Rare Tawny rightfully lays claim to such a title. High quality blending stock has been lovingly matured in small oak casks, and creates a wine of immense complexity and depth.

Penfolds Father 10 Year Old Grand Tawny

Penfolds Father Grand Tawny pays tribute to 169 years of winemaking excellence. A blend of many outstanding tawny components separately matured in seasoned old oak casks, with a minimum blended average age of ten years. The results yields a wine of generous concentration, vitality, exceptional balance of fruit and oak age complexity. The tawny lingers in the mouth, finishing clean and tight.

Antica Formula Vermouth

Carpano Antica Formula, first created in 1786, is an authentic Italian vermouth recipe and one of the first vermouth ever made. It is made from white wine, Piedmont's muscatel and the rich wines from southern Italy. It is produced in limited quantities with expert craftsmanship. Traditionally served straight and well chilled as an aperitif or used to transform a common Manhattan cocktail or as a key ingredient in the Negroni cocktail.

Po' Di Poli Elegante Grappa Elegant Pinot

McWilliams Royal Reserve Cream Apera

It is full of nutty and raisin flavours that show off this old favourite from one of Australia's best and oldest family owned wineries. .

Toro Albala Poley Fino del Lagar 10 Años Non-Vintage Non-Vintage

15%ABV. Toro Albalá's Eléctrico solera produces a superb, complex and powerful Fino with vivid aromas and flavours of green apple, lemon peel, grilled almond, and iodine. One of the keys to understanding this wine is that it has not been fortified, i.e., it only has the natural alcohol from its primary fermentation. This makes for a particularly pure and vinous expression of Fino. It’s also made from 100% Pedro Ximénez grapes, which brings texture and depth. This offers an invitingly layered mid-palate and a round finish that sets it apart from Jerezano Fino and Manzanilla. However, there is still plenty of that bright, chalky crackle—so distinctive of the Fino style and the local chalky soils. The freshness is, well, electrico! As always, this is an absolute bargain.

St Andrews Medium Dry Apera

Fortified wines were perfected in the 1700s and were popular as they were able to withstand long sea journeys. A wine becomes fortified when a neutral spirit is added during the fermentation process. There are many different types of fortified wines including Tawny, Port, Apera, Sherry, Muscat and other fortifieds. Common flavours include ginger, toasted hazelnuts, raisins, caramel and cinnamon. Fortified wine pairs well with seafood, tapas, fruit cake or enjoyed as a cocktail, aperitif or digestive. A medium dry style Sherry perfect for the kitchen or as a pre-dinner starter. An ideal match to your favourite soup.

Penfolds Club Reserve Tawny

A multi-regional blend this is a luscious and sweet fortified wine. When drinking enjoy its flavours of fruit, and butterscotch with cheese or dessert.

Morris Liqueur Muscat

Christmas in a bottle, this is a superb Rutherglen liqueur muscat. The colour has a slightly olive, aged tinge, and the fabulous nose has beautifully concentrated scents of raisins, spices, plum pud, roasted almonds and Siena cake. It's seductively sweet and smooth in the mouth, with a luscious raisin and nutty aftertaste.
