Deep, brilliant old gold. Lifted toffee, honey and cold tea characters combine to produce the unique character of Rutherglen Topaque. Toffee and tealeaf characters predominate on the front of the palate with a cleansing hint of spirit and old oak on the finish.
The wine is a brilliant straw yellow with fine, persistent perlage and fruity aromas of peach, apple, pear and citrus fruit. The palate gracefully balances zingy acidity and a subtle hint of sweetness, richness and silky-smooth texture.
Fairly typical of the best of this style from the Gippsland region with the added mineral complexities we attribute to our granite soils.
The Pinot Noir is earthy and complex, lively and elegant with great depth and persistence, along with some violet and cherry notes.
