Golden amber. A combination of great age, complex rancio characters and skilful blending has created an intensely complex palate.

Tokays from their national birthplace in North East Victoria are revered by connoisseurs and pleasure- seekers alike. They are classified by blend age to mark the dazzling progression in richness and intensity as older stocks are blended in from barrels. Rare Rutherglen Tokay is a masterful blend of the rarest 50 year-old stocks in Australia.
