This brandy is all about the subtle integration of fruit and oak. At 15 years of age, it’s impressive that the oak hasn’t taken over, showing serious attention to detail in the cask selection and blending process. A delicate nose of waxed fruit hints at real power despite the relatively low alcohol, and the oak is a teasing rather than aggressive presence. The easy-going palate reveals layers of marzipan, orange cake, and gentle tannin, making it effortless to drink. This has long been one of my favourite Australian spirits, so I’m trying not to let confirmation bias get in the way, but there’s nothing to fault. The texture is there in spades, a difficult achievement when grapes have far less naturally occurring oils than grains.

Refined, elegant, smoother than Steely Dan through satin-lined headphones. Spiced orange and creme brulee, lemon pith and sandalwood. Softly spiced coriander seed and cumin, some warmed nuts too. This is unbelievable, and unbeatable quality at this price.
