Wine Maker: Andrew Buller
Appellation: Victoria
Varietal: Muscat
Viticular Practices: At Bullers, we still use traditional methods to produce our Premium Muscats. The
grapes are handpicked at our non-irrigated vineyard. In the winery, the skins are gently pressed to extract flavor without unwanted tannins or bitterness. Maturation: We use a solera system of fractional blending in oak barrels. At the mature wine is drawn off for bottling it is replaced with wine from the new vintage. This ensures a consistent blend of the older material with the fresh new wine. Cellaring Recommendations: Fully matured when released and ready for immediate consumption.
Wine Makers Notes: Mid-reddish brown to amber at the rim. Aromatic raisiny/floral scents/hint of spirit.
Initial sweetness and raisiny flavours linger to reveal complex hints of honey and lemons. Some rancio character. Underlying structure of tannin and well-integrated spirit. Finish is long and the honeyed flavours return and linger.
