Stanton & Killeen Rare Rutherglen Topaque 375mL
Capturing profound intensity and layers of savour depth while retaining fresh, youthful focus is one of the finer arts of fortified winemaking, and Simon Killeen has nailed it in his top topaque. It’s developed a deep brown hue with a mahogany tint and a golden rim and luscious complexity of raisins, honey, dark chocolate, prunes and black olives, balanced with the freshness of apricots and cumquats.
