Dutschke 22 Year Old Tawny 500ml, Rutherglen

“The 22 Year Old Tawny” is a blend of some fantastic individual components. Over recent years we have put together a Solera of old fortified wines, allowing us to bottle a small volume of some consistently good stuff each year. The blend is made up of a long list of varieties including Verdelho, Grenache, Shiraz, Touriga, White Muscat, Pedro and Palomino. Some of these components date back over 40 years, and are responsible for adding the lusciousness and the distinctive “rancio” (butterscotch) characters we find in this wine. There’s plenty of rich, rancio, butterscotch flavours, fine drying oak tannins and a warm alcohol finish, resulting in a complex length of flavour.
