Medium-deep tawny-amber hue and a superb bouquet of burnished timber, walnuts, raisins and other dried fruits, with a tinge of toffee. A magical bouquet. The palate is intense and piercing, powerful and yet focused and elegant. Toffee, vanilla, caramel flavours abound, and the sweetness is controlled, not overpowering. Elegant and long, a stylish wine in a drier style than the typical Australian tawny.

45 years average age. Similar colour to Grandfather; similar nose; enormous power and richness; an even better wine. Has a greater richness and depth and a sweeter, more liqueury finish. Voluminous flavour fills the entire mouth. Gets into every corner and crevice. A wine of real gravitas.
