| Chateau/Producer: | R. L. Buller | | Wine Name: | Tokay Victoria | | Country: | Australia | | State: | Victoria | | Region: | Rutherglen | | Wine Score: | 92 | | Notes: | This wine has a lovely dark amber color, with a great nose of brown sugar, burnt sugar, and caramel. The body is thick, and the flavor is sweet, with apricots and brown sugar. Tasted with some apricot cookies, the combination was amazing. This is a very rich and delicious wine for the price. | | Tasting Date: | 2005-05-05 | | Varietal: | muscadelle | | Production Notes: | The grapes are picked late, with some shriveling at harvest. After partial fermentation, alcohol is added, leaving substantial residual sugar. Each year, the wines are blended together and one-eighth is drawn off for bottling. The tank is topped off with new wine from the latest vintage and the blend is then put back into barrels and casks. | | Additional Notes: | Price is for a half-bottle. This can be cellared for a long time, perhaps as much as 50 years. | | Price US$: | 12.99 | | Source: | Martin's Wine Tasting |
